Actually, Firefox is behaving correctly (according to standards), and IE is stuffing it up. Floated elements are removed from the normal flow within a box. Because the only element within your #wrap is the floated #leftcol and the empty #clear, there is nothing within #wrap that actually gives it any height. IE incorrectly gives #wrap enough height to contain the floated #leftcol. If you add some kind of height declaration to your #wrap selector, or add some more non-floated content within that div, you will find that the background is displayed in Firefox (and IE).
