> http://rochoet.newcitymedia.com/test.html I've looked at this page before, and the problem seems to be that you can't avoid triggering 'hasLayout'[1] since #page-area must have a 'width'. That'll cause the containers to expand to include all floats, and ruin the whole idea. Should be possible to work out a solution, but I'm short of ideas, and time, right now.
