I even considered, since I could seem to find a div solution, a  
tabular solution *oh no this guy is sick in the head* but even the  
test cases I run on that are not favorable in IE.

The idea is that the background expands and contracts bases on the  
nav's height.  Since the float is supposed to be taken out of the  
flow of the page this shouldn't be a problem.  And then setting the  
clear at the bottom for the footer.

The problem is that in IE the wrappers expand to hold the float which  
they shouldn't.  If you pull this page up in IE and FF you'll see the  
difference in the backgrounds.

Yeah I admit I'm stumped.

I tried setting the heights of the containing wrappers to 1% for IE
only and setting the line height. Any other suggestions?

Here is the url for the page:

http://rochoet.newcitymedia.com/test.html

stylesheets:

http://rochoet.newcitymedia.com/css/generic.css
http://rochoet.newcitymedia.com/css/layout.css
http://rochoet.newcitymedia.com/css/ie.css

Problem only shows up with IE.  Expected effect is in Firefox.

Please advise.

Nick
