I have an element that is floating to the right of another element, and some of the links in this right-floating element aren't even recognized as links in Firefox. Double-clicking on these unrecognized links selects text in the element *to the left*. It's as if, when there's any text to the left of my right-floating element, the right-floating element's contents are not even recognized. Any ideas on how to fix this? Here's an example:

Because #homecontent is in front of it hiding it. It's too wide.

Exactly. :) -See Screenshot. I outlined the edges of every element for you.

thank you much, had the same problem with my own page, IE didn't have problems but FF wasn't recognizing links, turns out FF layers things,(z-index) which IE doesn't do...thank you very much
