Hello,
Thank you for responding and letting me know. I somehow chopped up my
source pasting it into the email. I have managed to get a link up as an
example. Please take a look at: http://www.kilby.info/test.xhtml. You
should be able to see that the border of the div starts below the first
floated div with IE6. With FF 1.5 the border contains all of the divs.
So, my question is if this is a known bug with IE6 or some
misunderstanding of the code on my part.
Thanks
Steven

First, Welcome to CSS Discuss....
the CSS you provided above makes no sense me;
#outer
{
: 10px; <-- 10 px of what? height? width?
: 10px; <-- etc
: 1px solid blue; <-- I'm assuming this is a border...... and would be
properly written, border: 1px solid blue;
}
Similarly, in the XHTML you have label id="lf1" but that's not in the
styles
provided. Unless it's in the external link to your real test.css.....
which we can't see.... so, looking at the code provided isn't much
help....
and any solution offered would only be a wag.....
A link to a real page or a test page with the problem would make it easier
for the folks on the list to help you solve this problem.
Best
