It looks like this only affects Mozilla, as it renders fine in IE and Opera. It has to do with the clearing div not working, since it has no contents or dimensions. If you give the clearing div a border or padding, that will fix it. Another fix is to get rid of that div altogether and have the

Thanks to Tom, Roger, and David for testing. The filter proved useless as Safari 1.3 won't accept percentage no-repeat percentage, similar to Opera. Safari computes 0.995% correctly, though. IE and Mozilla accept this splitting. So within this test, there is actually no way to serve 95.5% to
