Hi All,
I'm building another site, trying to uses as few tables
as I can. I've hit a bit of a snag, which is that on this
design:- http://www.mfhughes.com/ktest/deutsch.htm
If you look on text of the first full paragraph (in IE,
- it works properly in Mozilla and Opera) you can see that
the text above a certain point is indented and below is not
indented, (only by a few pixels). This occurs at the same
point on the screen where the gif on the left ends. The float:left
of the gif's container div is affecting the content div in
IE only for some reason. Arrgggghh!
Has anyone any suggestions? I've trie using position:absolu te
with left: 0px on the gif's container div, and this solves the
problem, but makes aother problems elsewhere, namely that the
table across the bottom (the copyright one) can end up under/over one of the side
columns in certain situations, (such as those where the side columns
are long and the content is short) which is why I'd used float
in the first place.
Any suggestions, fixes, workarounds or even flames for missing
something obvious (with solution!) are welcome.
Thanks
Michael Hughes

I've made only the changes necessary to solve your immediate problem.
Basically, you need to be using percentages instead of pixels in your
styles.

This is the infamous "IE float bug" -- lots of references to that problem on
the Net. Many sites offer help; check out the layouts at http://webhost.bridgew.edu/etribou/layouts/ , for example.
Thanks to both people who responded, I'll have a look
at the files, they look like they will sort out
my problems.
Thanks again.

That's nice. If your Usenet postings are to be useful, I'd like to
suggest to you that would be better if you would adhere to normal
netiquette, by following-up to the postings with a minimal relevant
quote to set the context, and then tell the readership to what extent
that relevant quote proved to be helpful to the tasks. In that way we
can all leverage on your experience.

I noticed an irritating behaviour of the text-indent property and I
wonder if I'm the only one to feel this way about it: it seems that
text-indent applies even to floated elements. Although this is probably
correct according to the specification (text-indent is inherited), don't
you think it makes no sense to apply text-indent to such elements ?
