[css-d] overflow: inheritance?

2006-03-30 Thread David McFarland
I was just looking over the CSS 2.1 specs and see that some properties that aren't inherited accept a value of 'inherit' For example, the overflow property accepts 'inherit' as a valid value. What exactly can this property inherit from? This is true with border properties as well. Thanks

Right first this first the reason the menu overlaps is that your content div has finished so it just wraps round. What would be better is if you put the left column as a div i.e: #leftClm { width: 33%; float: left; display: block; padding: .. etc. }
