I thought i'd fixed it, however I can't work out how to get the -3px going in IE. The 3px jog is now effecting the whole paragraph instead of just the lines adjacent to the floated div.
Here is a demonstration of the 3px job happening. The indent stops as soon as the left float ends. HTML http://www.streetdaddy.com/wsg/test2.html CSS http://www.streetdaddy.com/wsg/domainname2.css I've added the IE/Win specific code from positioniseverything's article: HTML http://www.streetdaddy.com/wsg/test.html CSS http://www.streetdaddy.com/wsg/domainname.css /* Hide from IE5-mac. Only IE-win sees this. \*/ * html #sidebar-a { margin-right: 10px; } * html p { height: 1%; margin-left: 0; } /* End hide from IE5/mac */ but I can't seem to get the next step working, removing the 3px gap from the entire paragraph in IE without affecting other browsers.
