Standard compliant browsers need the right property/value from the
specs[1] to make them expand #container. IE expand it because IE/win has
a bug[2] -  mis-interpreting some property/values that should not have
such an effect on rendering.

I suggest this addition for standard compliant browsers...

#container {display: table;}

...which will make them do what you wish - according to CSS specs.

[css-d] works in IE but not mozilla or netscape

[Melinda Odom]

Hi,

Can someone tell me why I see the graphic color that is in the left menu in
IE but not in mozilla or netscape:
http://www.designhosting.biz/neill/test.html

The stylesheet is:

#container {
width: 800px;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
background-image: url(assets/bg_container.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
background-position: left top;
height: 100%;
}
#menu {
width: 180px;
float: left;
}
#content {
padding: 10px;
width: 560px;
float: right;
height: 100%;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
line-height: 1.5;
}
#footer {
border-right-color: #9D9F37;
height: 60px;
background-color: #9D9F37;
clear: both;
}

Thank you!

Sincerely,
Melinda Odom
