You are right, the overflow cuts the padding/margin excess (one true layout-style), and is not used to contain floats here. I probably should have opened the page before starting to debug. http://www.springfieldmo.gov/newSite/index7b.html Well, a while ago I developed another method without overflow hidden. See a discussion here. http://www.satzansatz.de/cssd/companions.html I think any other 3-col-layout will do, our wiki has a long list. Maybe http://www.tjkdesign.com/articles/3cols.asp by Thierry does what you want. Remember that the term "Holy Grail" means something that cannot be found.
