Float overlapping problem

Hi,

I'm having a problem where inline text is not wrapping around a floated
div. Instead, the inline text is running into the div.
The best example is here:
http://www.drfunkenstein.net/catalog...72/items/6895/

The text 'bleeding runaway patient' is running into the #itemEnquiries
floated div.

The div is positioned relatively with a top of -60px; could it be the
-60px causing the problem?

Many thanks!
Matt

That is definitly the problem. If you use negative rel. positions or
negative margins overlapping will occur.
