The power of W3C-standard CSS, I guess.
'Visual formatting model - 9.4.1 Block formatting contexts' says:
"Floats, absolutely positioned elements, inline-blocks, table-cells, and
elements with 'overflow' other than 'visible' establish new block
formatting contexts."

IE6 doesn't understand the W3C-standard on this point, but it so happens
that a 'bug/proprietary feature' in IE/win does the same thing, so we
don't have to worry about it. See:
