We have discussed this IE/Win problem in http://www.satzansatz.de/cssd/acidicfloat.html As long as your float is wrapped in container that have "layout", they will expand to contain the float. (If you try to counteract this by position:relative/overflow hacks for IE, then the float leaves the wrapper, but becomes "invisible" for subsequent clearing elements, since it would be taken completely out of the flow, similar to absolute positioning.)
