The solution is to make divs behave/render like tables, by adding... #body {display: table;} ...so they do expand with content as tables does. That's according to CSS specs, so Firefox will do just fine with it. IE/win doesn't understand 'display: table;' but IE6 and older versions are saved by a bug called 'Layout'[1]. Don't know how IE7 will do though, as it won't be up to standards and they have partially killed that 'Layout' bug. regards Georg [1]http://www.satzansatz.de/cssd/onhavinglayout.html -- http://www.gunlaug.no ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/ ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
