Re: [WSG] Two separate CSS issues

[Stevio]

Hi Bob,
Thanks for the suggestion but it didn't work! Stefan's suggestion did not
work either. Any other ideas anyone?
Anyone know why a floated div is hidden in IE6?

These days I always use:
#{margin : 0; padding : 0} at the start of my CSS. This removes all the
'default' padding, margins etc from everything, and you set your own,
throughout.
Sometimes a pain if you're being lazy or in a rush, but it does allow for
excellent control of your layout.

For the first problem try this:
body, html {
margin:0;
padding:0;
}

I am working on a 2 column layout with a header and footer, with the

content, if the page content is longer than the available space).
Here is the page (ignore the colours - they are just for identifying
divs!):
http://www.cssweb.co.uk/templatetest.html
I am coming across two problems:
1) When viewing in Firefox - there is whitespace at the top of the page
above the Document Heading, which is within an H1 tag. If I add:
#header h1 {
margin:0;
}
then this problem disappears.
Shouldn't the H1 be contained within the header div? Why is the above
required? This problem does not happen in IE6.
2) When viewing in IE6 - the floated sidebar div (yellow with red border)
does not appear on top of the pink space where it should be. Why is that?
Thanks,
Stephen
