Hi,

When using the simple clear method to open up a container for Mozzilla
with floated elements, IE stays true to form and causes a pain in the
neck by adding vertical space. So say I have this:

<div id="posts-container">
        <div id="posts-sidebar">
        <p>sidebar</p>
        </div>
        
        <div id="posts-body">
        <p>body</p>
        </div>

        <div class="simple-clear"></div>
</div>

Where the two internal DIVs are floated.  The simple clear DIV opens
up the container in Mozzy, and all is nice, but in IE I get a whole
new line of vertical space. In some cases it's not a big deal, but I
am working on a project where every pixel of space is accounted for
(can't be flexible in this case.)

Yes, I can float the container as well and remove the clearing DIV,
and all is right with the world. But I have a case where I can't float
the container.

How can I get IE to avoid putting that new line or vertical space for
the clearing DIV?

Thanks

Tom
