Well done, Theresa! You know, I looked at that and did the stupid thing: I said, naw, no way it's that!
FYI, the clear didn't work. Only removing the float on the img tag worked. I *knew* it was inheritance, but of course I was only looking at what the div was inheriting and did not look more closely at what the classed img was inheriting. So, Theresa or anyone else: any idea why IE8 had a problem with this but FF and Chrome did not? Gotta be the rendering agent, but I'd be interested to know what the precise issue is.
