[css-d] Paragraph background not respecting float margins

2007-11-02 Thread Scott Povlot
I hope that someone can explain to me what is happening in this case. The paragraph with the yellow background should be pushed over by the float. The text in it is moved over due to the float. But the yellow background still continues behind the float box. I think that the background and

[css-d] Missing vignettes/bullets on floating items

2007-11-02 Thread Mike Tierney
(Smarter folk, please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong... ) Pixels are inherently a binary unit - either it's a whole pixel that's active or a whole pixel that's inactive, so a fractional pixel doesn't exist - but the browser is probably seeing your decimal unit, and is either rounding up
