The border cuts off at bottom of menu, not bottom of content. That don't make sense. Makes a lot of sense. Floated elements don't take up any space in the container (i.e. the container will not contain them).

Re: [WSG] Logic?
Please forgive me if I've missed something, but I must respectfully disagree. I've created a number of fixed-width layouts centered within the viewport at 760px, and floated one-column left and the other column right inside a container div without issue. Again, if I've misunderstood the issue and answer my apologies. Kind regards, Mario The border cuts off at bottom of menu, not bottom of content. That don't make sense. Makes a lot of sense.

Re: [WSG] Logic?
Thanks Prabhath; All I know is that what Prabhath said worked perfectly for me for this. I almost never make fixed width layouts, just a personal preference is all.

Re: [WSG] Logic?
Please forgive me if I've missed something, but I must respectfully disagree. I've created a number of fixed-width layouts centered within the viewport at 760px, and floated one-column left and the other column right inside a container div without issue. Yes, I've done it without problems too. But the situation discussed here is different because the container has a border, which should be as tall as the tallest of the content elements inside it. If this tallest element happens to be floated, and that float is *not* cleared *inside* the container, the container will not stretch down to wrap it. If it were not for that border, we could've gone ahead and used a non-wrapping container, and used clear: both for any footer content. cheers, Prabhath http://nidahas.com ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
