blueprint-css

I'm using the Blueprint CSS grid for my HTML page. I have a table which I want to show/hide - linking it to a button, using jQuery. The problem is that everytime I click on the button to show/hide the table, everything on the page shifts slightly left-right.

Is this a common problem? Does anyone know what could be causing this and what I could do to fix the other elements of the page such that they do not move?

Edit: grammar.
