The element in question can come before or after the float in the source, or contain the float. Tobbe, you example gave me the push to complete the test page I had been doing. The height of the actual float is a somewhat strange factor in the first three examples and the last two examples (base on your example). If the height of float is greater than the margin-bottom of the element with the margin, then the bug is triggered. The bug is always present if the element with the margin-bottom comes before the float. Here the demo. http://css-class.com/test/margintransferencebug.htm This is a similar bug with two floats in it which I saw on your site Bruno or was it Gerald Talbot's site. Well I see another test where the margin is transferred. http://www.brunildo.org/test/Op7_margins_float.html Kind Regards, Alan ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7 information -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
