IE8 acting up with SmugMug view?

[Coma Pedrosa]

Hi! Sorry for requesting so much help today. I usually use chrome but just tried the site i'm building in IE8. when opening the galleries i have forced to SmugMug view, i get this:

what's more, when i play with Ctrl+scroll wheel to increase or decrease the site's size, it flips back and forth between the normal layout and the one in the picture above. There are even some sizes where the picture flickers on the screen between both positions!!! In the old days i would have said that someone hasn't accounted for the size of the scoll-bar on the right...

I couldn;t find anything in the forum about this. Does someone know what is going on?

I can't believe Smugmug isn't fixing this. This problem has been known for a very long time now.

You can fix it on your own browser by setting the zoom level on the browser back to 100% or it's default value. If your viewers happen to have this same issue, there's nothing you can do with your site to fix it. They have to change their browser.

Holy Moly! that's not nice considering how many users still use IE (and are being upgraded to IE8). I actually did set IE8 to medium and 100% before taking this screenshot... not nice... this is almost the first thing many visitors of smugmug sites are going to see!!??!!
:huh :huh :huh:cry :huh

PS: do you live here in the forum? I'm very impressed by how promptly you respond - and always in a very helpful way!

It can happen in IE7 or Firefox and maybe even other browsers. I have a really hard time understanding why Smugmug hasn't prioritized fixing it because when it happens to a viewer the whole site is basically ruined and they have no idea why it doesn't work. They think your site is just really bad.
