I'm currently changing our site to use a 1024px res up from 800px with some other tweaks.

Below the top navigation we have a status bar that informs users of their login status. The text is floated right with another link floated to the left. However, when I try to add floats in the new design I'm having problems that I'm not sure how to solve. I have tried things like adjusting the height of the div, adding a background colour etc.

Here is the existing site (http://www.buildstore.co.uk/findingland/default.aspx?sid=sb)

New site without the floats (http://www.buildstore.co.uk/findingland_new/)

New site with float (http://www.buildstore.co.uk/findingland_new/index_float.html)

I'm aware there are some validation issues relating to the (eventual) dynamic nature of the page but they are further down the page and I don't believe they should be affecting this issue.

Only tested this in Opera, but i made the following changes.

#content - width:100%
#topsubnav - overflow:auto

Thanks, worked perfectly in FF and Opera, just had to force a height for IE6.
