Yes, it does :-) Positioning isn't the problem.
However, #content won't _contain_ floats by default.

A quick look at specs:
<http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visuren.html#q15>
...will give you the rule(s) for _containment_ which in your case might
be a simple 'display: table' on #outer.

You can also improve things a lot by not setting 'height' on those
floats. You can set 'min-height' instead so they can expand naturally.
Of course, a few more, strategically placed, 'display: table;' will
solve that even if you like to keep those 'height'. It's all in those
CSS specs.
