Invalid.  The scrollbars are intended.  That's the only way I can interpret the
page.

The page has:

<link href="/styles/ezine.css" rel=stylesheet type=text/css>

and that file has:

h2  {
	font-family : Tahoma, Verdana, Arial;
	FONT-WEIGHT : bold;
	COLOR : #191970;
	overflow : scroll;
	font-size : large;
}

The text in question is in an <h2> tag, so we put on scrollbars as requested by
the stylesheet. If the page meant "overflow: auto", it should do that instead....

True, but there is still the issue of the block resizing when you press the
scroll arrows.  This behavior is NOT intended and shouldn't be happening as far
as I can tell.

Should be reopened.
