Hello all, I've been assigned a bug fix, and I wanted to check my instincts to see if I'm on the right track, as css is rather new to me.
The page in question: http://xtf.lib.virginia.edu/xtf/view?docId=2005_Q4_3/uvaBook/tei/z000000175.xml This renders fine in Firefox, but problematically in ie6 and 7. In ie6, the <div id="mainContent"> is far lower down on the page than in Firefox, and in ie7, the same div "jumps" over to the right. When debugging in Firefox with Firebug, I was able to mimic what it looks like in ie6 by modifying a css rule specifying "float: none;" for "#mainContent". When I change the rule to "float: left;", the div "jumps" down in the browser, and looks like ie6. >From some reading I've done, it looks like this may be a case of the "escaping float". Can someone confirm this, or correctly diagnose this problem? With a diagnosis, what treatments do you suggest? Thanks!
