Thank you, Theirry. I put a surrounding div around the 2 divs that weren't behaving, and stopped the absolute positioning of the one div. Put overflow: hidden on the surrounding div and my life is hugely improved.
Sorry for those excessive clear:both things, I had thrown a bunch of them in there for the purpose of just seeing what was happening, and they didn't fix anything but I forgot to remove them. I so appreciate your help in this, it is a great thing for me to be able to ask for help and get such expert advice.
