Found a very good tutorial online [1]. Managed to get it working for IE
but Mozilla doesn't adjust the height of the "container" div. I'm a bit
lost here.
I think my problem is the one defined on PIE's "How To Clear Floats
Without Structural Markup" [2] but having tried the proposed solutions I
still can't get it to work.
Ideas?
Also, was able to set min-height for both IE and Moz using:
height: 535px; /* IE's min-height equivalent */
min-height: 535px;
Tks,
