That was a fluke of a fix. At the time I was still trying to visualize 
what each container was doing. All I did was remove the bottom margin of 
the last child element of div#rightColumn_hp. The content of this div 
was actually *overflowing*. Georg actuality took more time to analyze 
the code and thus provided the perfect fix. See next message.


BTW, there was no collapsing of margins. Margins of child elements do 
not collapse inside floated elements which div#rightColumn_hp was.
