Are you sure? It only happens for me when the screen is wide enough. The reason is that the right-hand column (id:" news-pic-quote-column") is absolutely positioned. That means that it is removed from the document flow. The "clear: both" on the footer doesn't apply to it. I'm not sure of the best solution, and don't have time to investigate the whole layout, but you might want to look at some floating solutions. -- Scott ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
