Example 1: http://www.digitale-bibliothek.de/Zenotest/blog1.htm http://www.digitale-bibliothek.de/Zenotest/style1.css In IE6, the image is behind the div#postbox. To get it to the front, I simply define "position: relative;" or the image. Example 2: http://www.digitale-bibliothek.de/Zenotest/blog2.htm http://www.digitale-bibliothek.de/Zenotest/style2.css Here I defines "position: relative;" or the image. But then, because it is flowing and therefore taken out of the regular box flow, it doesn't force the div#postbox's height to extend. Therefore I defined "clear: both;" for the feedback, but it clears the left menu as well now. In addition I would have to clear left or right flowing images in the postbox as well in order to force them to stay one under the other. But those images would go under the left menu as well. Any help? Regards, Christian *Directmedia Publishing GmbH* · Möckernstraße 68 · 10965 Berlin www.digitale-bibliothek.de AG Berlin-Charlottenburg · HR B 58002 · USt.Id.
