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. -- Alan http://css-class.com/ Armies Cannot Stop An Idea Whose Time Has Come. - Victor Hugo ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] 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/
