[css-d] Firefox Focus prob. solved

Thanks to Mustafa and Philippe, my problem is now solved. I added the overflow:hidden to the li and it worked like a charm. I guess there is no way to get rid of the red/blue focussing rings altogether. I thought that no-decoration would do it, but that didn't work. Not a really big deal, but a

Hi, all What is the best way of forcing a container box enclose its floats? clear:both is not good, because it would make the cleared element below all previous floats. It's inappropriate on a column setup layout. I also tested overflow:auto, but in many times an annoying scroll bar appears. How
