The parent of #content is a 'hasLayout' container (because of overflow:hidden). This kinda swallows the margin of the first inflow kid. That is the left-margin vanishes into thin air. The overflow:hidden is apparently used to contain floats. Maybe choose another technique ? Inserting an <hr> that clears the whole block as last element in #container ? That would even be semantic... http://www.satzansatz.de/cssd/onhavinglayout.html#prop Philippe --- Philippe Wittenbergh http://l-c-n.com/ ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] 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/
