[css-d] Background color looks right in IE, nothing else.

[mindy]

Morning!

Okay so the site looks right in IE and I know that IE makes some guesses
as to what you want to see so...how do I make [LINK:
http://pj-chron.com/redesign/] http://pj-chron.com/redesign/ look right in
Netscape, Firefox ect. In other words, how it does in IE.

The code is compliant :

http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/v...usermedium=all

Here is the relevant css code:#container{
width: 760px;
height: auto;
margin:0 auto;
padding:10px 10px 0 10px;
background: #ff url(images/contbg.png) no-repeat;
border: none;
color:#222;
}

Thanks for the help
~Mindy

The above width keeps IE/win happy, as it acts as a 'hasLayout'[1] trigger.

Other browsers need a proper 'Block formatting contexts'[2], so adding...
#container {overflow: hidden;}
...will work in most.
