Perhaps the easy clearing will work for you? I use it all the time and
can't imagine life before this list showed it to me. :)
/* either the UL or the containing div, depending on where your
background is. It sounds like you want the UL */
.classname:after {
clear: both;
content: ".";
display: block;
height: 0;
visibility: hidden;
}

Subject: [css-d] Tabs inside of containers
Hi,
I am trying to build a horizontal list menu (using an unordered list)
and I want to place it inside of a container along with other things
such as a header and a search form. Also, I'd like to make it flexible
so that if a user increases the font size, the navigation tabs enlarge
with the font. I've tried to do this from scratch and from a ton of
other menus I've found in the Wiki, but I can't seem to get the
horizontal list to display:block, float:left and stay inside of the
container.
If anyone can point me to an example of something like that I'd
appreciate it.
Thanks,
Mike

Michael, I don't understand why you couldn't put everything in a container, nor what is wrong with the markup above. What was the problem that you saw when you tried to put everything in a container? And why did you want to put everything in a container in the first place? A link to the page with the problem would probably be helpful. Zoe -- Zoe M.

Forget the tabs then, go with borders using "outset" Or set the top and left borders to one color and the bottom and right borders to a darker one. Either option creates a 3D button-like appearance.

RE: [css-d] Tabs inside of containers
Thanks for your reply, Chris. Those tabs are great. Unfortunately, it's not exactly what I need or at least I don't know how to use your tabs in the way I need. If you look at the nav here: http://webfx.eae.net/ you'll see that it sort of looks like buttons. I need to take that type of look and place it in the upper right-hand corner. In addition, I need to put a background image along the top of the page (on top of the nav buttons) and another one underneath to give it that application-style look. There are other things that I need to have in the same "toolbar" as the nav buttons. I need a header and a search form. So far I've been unsuccessful placing all of these things in a container and placing it at the top of the page. Here's the basic html I'm using: UNCLASSIFIED Link 1 Link 2 Link 3 Link 4 Link 5 Link 6 Search: Then, the main content of the page would start here... The idea is that the whole page would also be fluid like a regular application. I'd appreciate any help you can provide.
