@Thierry: Happy to help. > the element is taken out of flow, thus float is rendered impotent
@Barney: It doesn't necessarily follow that because the element is out of the flow, float cannot work. If the spec hadn't disallowed it, it would be conceivable for position:absolute and float to be used together to get the combined effect of 5) and 6), that is: a stretched, right or left aligned element, with text or inline elements flowing around it. http://roughtech.com/t/posit.html ~Chetan ______________________________________________________________________ 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/
