Wrapper isn't wrapping in Firefox

The page at <http://www.edbjay.com/ver4.htmlseems to render properly in
Opera 9.2 and IE6, but has a problem with Firefox -- the outer container
doesn't wrap the entire page. I can't see why...can someone?

Floats may not be contained within containing block if the content is
greater. It will extend beyond the container. This is how floats are
supposed to work.

See the diagram "A floating image obscures borders of block boxes it
overlaps." on page:

http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visuren.html#dis-pos-flo

You need to either add a clearing element after floats and before the
closing tag of the containing DIV.containerbo x or your can add:

..containerbox {
overflow: auto;
}

Take care,

Thank you very much. Solved the problem.

Is there any way to create transparent wrapper objects in Python? I thought implementing __getattribute__ on either the wrapper class or its metaclass would do the trick, but it does not work for the built in operators: class Foo(object): class __metaclass__(type): def __getattribute__(self, name): print "Klass", name

I have some templated functions and I want to write a call wrapper class for it.
