Hello Jeff, Since you can not provide a URL, then this makes it someone harder to know the problem. If a container is floated right and has auto width with floated children, one of which is also floated right, that will cause the container to expand to 100% of the available width. I have no specific test case for IE7- but is this your bug. <http://css-class.com/test/bugs/gecko/1-7~1-9/floats-inline-and-float.htm> If so, give the floated right parent a width or don't float any of the children right. You could possibly feed IE7- their own special styles to help them along. BTW, please specify which IE version you have the problems in future. IE6, IE7 and IE8 are very different creatures. IE8 has few known bugs and is vastly different from it predecessors. -- 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/
