I'd move this to #content as it seems to be a closer ancestor. But the interesting part is that the issue appears to be related to a missing class in the styles sheet. There is a "structural hack" in the markup to clear floats after #mainContent: <br class="clearfloat" /> But I can't find ".clearfloat" in the sheet. In any case, your suggestion should allow the OP to remove the above from the markup. -- Regards, Thierry | http://www.TJKDesign.com ______________________________________________________________________ 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/
