Scott, I believe that you need to clear the two columns. Try this in the HTML: <div style="border: 1px solid red; width: 245px; float: left;"> <img src="chevron.gif" width="17" height="16" style="float: left; padding-right: 5px;"><div class="titles">Who are we?</div> <p class="indentedFromChevron bold">ClickBrand is a SEO and web development agency, offering a unique (snip) <img src="chevron.gif" width="17" height="16" style="float: left; padding-right: 5px;"><div class="titles">Clients</div> <p class="indentedFromChevron bold">ClickBrand is a SEO and web development agency, offering a unique blen of creativity and digital marketing experience.</p> </div> <!--clear floats--><div class="clear"></div> } and this in the CSS: .outer { background: transparent url("left.gif") top left no-repeat } .clear { clear:both; } /*clear the floats*/ I hope I've got them in the correct place. It's difficult for me to see on your page which div is which. But the idea is to clear the center column. It the location of the clear div is wrong, maybe one of the REAL experts can correct me.
