Nothing to do with box model. Absolute positioned elements "live their own life" in that they do not take up any area, and the height of #sidebar1 and #sidebar2 will therefore have no effect on the height of their parent-element. Advice you change styling from 'A:P' to 'left/right floats' for those two side-elements, and look for "contain floats" methods to make their parent-element expand to contain them. regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no ______________________________________________________________________ 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/
