Just wondering, can a DIV be clear to show the background image from a div behind it?

G'day Chris

As Nick has indicated the answer is yes. However, the reason it is not working for you is that your #content div appears to stop at the start of the two lower divs. In other words, the reason we can't see the image behind that is because the image isn't there - it has already stopped. This is because your two lower divs are floated, and hence removed from the flow of the document

You can check this by using the DOM Inspector, or by giving #content a separate background colour

My answer would be to place your mountains_pixelhigh.gif as the background to #container instead. Easy fix

Cheers,
Lachlan
