Title: Re: [WSG] Float Left Problem

Thanks for the reply Jorge.   I have posted a jpg of the eps file I have to work with from the designer.  In Firefox the text column sits closer to the left margin of the page than in IE.  IE renders the page as close to the jpg file as I can get.   I am trying to understand why Firefox does not push the text column to the right as it should.  I am also trying to understand how to add the bottom graphic to the text column as well.   Here is the url to the jpg of the eps file:   http://www.romdev.com/olp/olp_home_01.jpg   Thanks   Jeff ----- Original Message ----- From: Jorge Laranjo To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Sent: Sunday, December 25, 2005 8:35 PM Subject: Re: [WSG] Float Left Problem #sidebar {     float: left;     margin-top: 12px;     margin-left: 15px;     padding: 10px 5px;         width: 167px;     text-align: right;     border-left: 1px solid #D9D9D9;     border-right: 1px solid #D9D9D9; } #sidebar-footer {     float: left;     margin-top: 0px;     margin-left: 12px;     padding: 0px;     width: 184px;     height: 27px;     background-image:  url(../images/SideTextBottom.gif);     background-repeat: no-repeat;     background-position: top; So, why not setting the #sidebard-footer margin-left: to 15px?

Jeff On my FF the sidebar footer is now in the right place. The header image still has problems. drew -- Atentamente, Jorge Laranjo email> [EMAIL PROTECTED] gTalk > [EMAIL PROTECTED] msn > [EMAIL PROTECTED] aim > [EMAIL PROTECTED] skype> jorge.laranjo http://www.olhares.com/fueg0/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/fueg0/
