Then the "disappeared tabs" in FFox. That seems to be caused by the {margin-top: -1.5em} of the .service-menu. Adding a bg-color to the .menu-inside, and giving some less negative margin-top shows that the service-menu box with the tabs is falling under the menu-inside container. I guess that is because of the float / clear operations. Giving a z-index to the tabs doesn't work. Giving absolute position to the content-box can help (assuming everything above has a certain known height, at least in em). Succes and greetings, francky ps1: Remaining problem: in FF the red bottom line of the content does only show after hovering over the tabs (!). I don't know why, I didn't see a relationship in the css (but the css is rather complicated for me). ps2: And an other possibility perhaps. - The system is now: LOGO (float-left) + <first menu> --------------------------------- (clear) <Content-box> <tabs-menu> <other content> Isn't it possible to separate the tabs-menu from the content-box? and place it like: LOGO (float-left) + [right-aligned <first menu> + just in next line <tabs-menu>] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------(clear) <Content-box> <other content> ps3: The SlayerOffice.com Favelet Suite is a ***** tool.
