I'm experiencing a problem with Mozilla/Safari. I have a container div with a background and two floated elements inside it. when I float one, I get the infamous IE 3px bug[1]. so... I float both (since this avoids the problem with the 3px bug) and the background of the containing div vanishes.
with float applied to div and image: http://www.capstrat.com/development/obrienatkinsx/test1.html with float applied only to the div: http://www.capstrat.com/development/obrienatkinsx/test2.html the elements in question are: div#content-main #portfolio-text { margin: 0; float: left; padding-top: 30px; width: 186px; font-size: .8em; } img#portfolio-image { float: left; width: 465px; height: 465px; margin-left: 1px; padding: 0; } [1] http://positioniseverything.net/explorer/threepxtest.html can someone give me some guidance on this? thanks!
