greetings. i'm having a problem with a two col layout using floats
contained in a wrapper div. my problem is that, while the wrapper
wraps the floats in the code, it doesn't render as actually wrapping
the floats *visually*. this results in the whole layout getting
generally fubarred.
i had this same problem in firefox a while ago, and georg generously
explained to me that in standards-compliant browsers floats aren't
*supposed* to be wrapped visually. he explained that ie will do so
only because of it's NON-compliance, and gave me a nice hack to trick
ff into wrapping, which looked like this:
.section:after {
content: " ";
display: block;
height: 0;
clear: both;
overflow: hidden;
}
this worked marvelously for ff, and i thought i had learned my lesson
well. but now i've been totally thrown for a loop, because suddenly i
have the same problem on ie. i've screwed with all sorts of things to
try to get a handle on it (no dice), and i really can't think of why
it's doing this.
luckily, i have a hunch that one of you wonderful folks might see it
more clearly than i.
takers?
