You are right. After re reading, this is seems to fall under the domain of *bottom edges being deliberatly left out of CSS specification*. Since there is no other content besides floats in the parent div, the floats appear to jump out of it. CSS2.1 specifies that a floated parent has to expand to contain floated children so I could float the parent (obj_bar). However I actually like the the thin line better that the thick backgound bar so I got lucky here. :) Thanks all for your help.
