Hi list, First of all, many thanks to Ingo + Georg & co. for conceiving of, developing and so clearly expounding upon the companion columns method [http://www.satzansatz.de/cssd/companions.html] (it's also the finest piece of writing on a technical webdesign issue I've ever witnessed – including my long-standing ALA subscription). I've used it before and it's saved the design for a major project of mine.
However over the past couple of days I've failed to make it behave in IE6 on an old website designed by someone else where a rough oneTrueLayout implementation wasn't quite up to scratch. http://hangnail.textmatters.com I can't work out why the #contentarea div is blotting out the excess padding on the #backgrounds children divs, which IE acknowledges being tall enough. It might not even be that – maybe the companions are being clipped for some reason. I've stared at this to the point of losing context, tried various applications of zoom:1, Etc. – nothing seems to work. Could someone give a quick look at the DOM and tell me if they see what's wrong? Much appreciation in advance, Barney ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
