Why am I getting a 1-2 pixel wide gap on http://techmobile.com/contact-usTESTBOX.html between the Search

Why am I getting a 1-2 pixel wide gap on http://techmobile.com/contact-usTESTBOX.html between the Search Box and the Right Edge of the Page?

Exact same code for the search box is on http://techmobile.com/open-service-call.html and this page doesn’t have the gap.

I’ve spent over 2 1/2 hours looking for a solution.

#container #search #searchbox_left   { background-image: url("../images/stories/search_left.gif"); background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 5px; height: 45px; float: left }
#container #search #searchbox_right   { background-image: url("../images/stories/search_right.gif"); background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 6px; height: 45px; float: left }
#container #search #searchbox_area {
float: left;
font: 12px Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
background-color: #000000;
height: 33px;
min-width: 410px;
width: auto !important;
width: 410px;
padding: 12px 10px 0px 10px;
color: #FFFFFF;
}

    In your container div is a table with two rows. The page with extra spaces as two extra tds in the second row that are each 1px wide.

    <div id="container">
<table width="960" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<tr>
<td width="1" valign="top">
<td valign="top" align="left">
<td width="1" valign="top"> </td>
<td width="1" valign="top"> </td>
<td width="1" valign="top">

    Those bottom cells are the issue as compared to

    <div id="container">
<table width="960" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<tr>
<td width="1" valign="top">
<td valign="top" align="left">
<td width="1" valign="top">

    on the page rendering correctly.

    EDIT

    Just to make sure the solutions are clear, either removing the extra tds or adding a colspan somewhere on the second to include those extra cells would take care of the spacing.
