Floats and Clears?

[lilqhgal]

Well I *thought* I had this worked out. I have two floats side by side, one floated left and one floated right, and then a <div class="clear"></div> underneath it to clear it. However, I'm having problems with the background of the inner container to repeat correctly in FF - it doesn't repeat vertically like it does in IE due to a flaw in IE in which it is expanding to contain the floated divs, left and right. Can someone peek for me??

Thanks so much!

You need to remove the background from the edges of CE-container.gif.

I'm sorry but I don't seem to understand how that would help the problem I'm having?

In your css file ce-newsite-port.css, the following appears :#jp_frontcategories {
font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
color: #536a8b;
font-size: 17px;
font-weight: bold;
height: 16px;
padding: 5px;
width: 450px;
}

The highlighted height setting is limiting the height of the content.
