I think I’m missing something very obvious in a ‘wood-for-the-trees’ kind of 
way here, but I’m trying to set up a definition list so that the dt and dd 
elements are floated opposite each other. I’ve made a simplified page with just 
the list on:

http://www.helpme.sharkattack.co.uk/opposingfloats.html

As you can see, the dd is dropping below the dt’s generated box -- I was 
expecting them to both sit at the same vertical position. There’s plenty of 
horizontal space between them and no margins or padding to mess with the 
widths. What’s causing it?

Like I say, I’m sure it’s a very simple/obvious thing but my brain just won’t 
see it today. After staring at it for over an hour and trying all sorts of 
workarounds I think I need somebody to see it for me. (Pretty please).
Many thanks;
