[WSG] Site check: lot's of space where there shouldn't be any

Title: Website design - Pacific Fox



Good morning 
all,

We have a page that is displaying an 
enormous amount of white where there shouldn't be any. I validated the page http://development.yellaterra.com.au:92/products/car-performance/product-detail/index.cfm?productCategoryIdentity=2modelIdentity=2and it's 
fine.

In Firefox however 
there is about 250px space between the "Make: British Leyland 
Model: "A" Series" and the header "Cylinder Heads", I was wondering if anyone knew what is causing 
that? There are a few more issues on this page, but I'll 
stick with asking for help on the space for now.
Thanks in advance 
for any 
help.


Kind 
regards,Taco 
Fleur

It's the clear: both on the 'Cylinder Heads' h2 which is causing the  
problem.

Taco,

It looks like a clear:right issue on your content there.  It's simply dropping 
below the right menu.  Try enlarging/shrinking the text and you'll see it move 
along with the height of the menu.

The div above the heading where the trouble begins seems to behave, so you may 
want to consider moving your content either into that div or nesting everything 
into a div that handles the whole main column.

I also noticed that your rollovers are being bad - disappearing on rollover 
until everything loads (IE7 and Firefox).  I'm guessing your switching images 
instead of changing background positions on one image - bad Taco!
