Thank you all for your suggestions - they have been very helpful! One suggestion was made:
site: www.pdrsolution.com/waters/index.html > It seems clear that your box needs to stretch > vertically, especially > since it can't stretch horizontally. Why isn't it > stretching > vertically now? Because of this rule: > > #left-box { > position: relative; > >Doing this takes it out of the flow, so its parent >container doesn't >stretch to accommodate it. 1. Looking at the parent container (div id="container" class="clearfix") and <div id="content">, I noticed that these don't have either an absolute or relative position ... so how do I know what the "flow" should be? 2. As suggested, I omitted the '#left-box' relative position mentioned above (I tried both an absolute position and no position at all). The result was that the menu swung way out of its intended position and the text still breaks out of the box. I think there is more I need to do. Or (most likely), I just don't understand whats going on 3. There must be a css: parameter I can adjust to allow for the box to stretch vertically to accomidate the text... I'm just not sure which one. Any more insite into this would be great.
