    Now this is odd…in IE7, there are large amounts of empty space underneath and to the right of what should be the "end" of my page, creating big scrollbars in both directions. Doesn’t happen in IE6.

    To debug, I temporarily created a rule to outline every element on the page:

    Code:
    div, table {border: 1px solid red;}

    Having done that, I can confirm that there are NO elements anywhere within this white space. So what could possibly be causing IE7 to think it needs scrollbars?

    Anyone ever encounter this before?

    Doesn’t necessarily mean there has to be an element out there to cause the space. Could be margins, or some kind of funky positioning. If you can copy and paste some code and throw it on a test page, that’d be useful.
