I know I'm not answering directly to your problem, but take a look at
ALA: Mountaintop Corners

I can't see what you mean.
But what I do is, give the container a height of 1%.
eg:
div { height: 1% }
and that DIV will no longer be effected.
I cant tell if thats the problem though.

In quirks mode, that means the footer is only a total of 698px

In standards mode (as with Firefox and Opera), left and right

offlist, but I wanted to indicate why Bert's solution would not be
ideal in this case.
I wanted a rollover effect for the links, involving a graphic arrow to
their left. But to achieve
Lea,
i see the same effect in both firefox and safari - a white strip to the
left of the blue background?
in both Firefox and in safari.
Sorry, no, that's not where the problem is. I placed the left edge of
the blue background arbitrarily, just to display the issue, so you'll
