Firefox floating bug?

Dear Group,

The Site under the following link
(http://tomasio.laudatio.com/temp/schiepek/index.html) displays as I
want it to in IE 6 (under Win XP) but does not render correctly in
Firefox 1.0. As usually Firefox does HTML and CSS better than IE, I
would like to know what kind of mistake I made in coding the site.

I think it has to do with the "float"-property in the text selectors
(copy, h1, h2). the width of the text seems to be consumed by the
width of the image to its left in firefox :(

Please help, I need to fix this very urgently.

Kind regards

This is a fantastic free newsserver which allows you to access the
newsgroup which seems to be most appropriate for your issue. Her post was
extremely sensitive to your situation - she even gave the URL to the

You're pretty fucking cocky, considering you're the one looking for people

I won't be helping you, not after that little tantrum.

I have to apologize for my behaviour a few hours ago. Based on
misunderstoodin gs I was thinking, Barbara was making fun of my
problems. As I suffered a little from deadlline pressure (don't know
if there's a right expression in English for this) and - most of all -
of the funeral of my granddad which is due to happen today, I reacted
in an unappropriate way.

Sorry for that.

Hi group, I have some problems with clearing floated divs. My usual method works fine in Konqueror, but not in Firefox. Here's an example: <html><body> <div id='left' style='float:left; border:1px solid red;'>Floated left</div> <div id='right' style='float:right; border:1px solid blue;'>Floated right</div>

Please open http://www.highscore.de/opera/floatleft.html in Opera 7.54 and Firefox 1.0 Preview. Who is right? In my humble opinion Opera 7.54 is right: According to CSS 2.1 a "floating box must be placed as high as possible" (see http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visuren.html#float-position rule #8). Do you agree? BTW, Internet Explorer 6 behaves like Opera 7.54.

In MSIE table captions are displayed at the same size as content. But in Firefox the text displays at browser default, It also exceeds the width of the table and the excess is hidden if the table is enclosed in a bounding div. If caption is given a font-size (eg 0.8em) with CSS text it displays correctly, however MSIE then shows the text too small.

I have a ASP .Net page that allows moving around items on the page through javascript. This page works fine in IE.

If you remove the doctype from the page it works just fine, although I would rather not do this. You can work around this by setting the cssText...

Here is the link in question: http://www.redchip.com/testing.asp It is simply styled with floating divs. Two floating divs are in a container, and they look fine, until I insert dropdown menu in the left div, then the right div gets pushed down as if the left div is too big or has clear:right applied to it.
