I have been working on a redesign of a site. this is a site that was developed by someone else and the CSS has been built to fit with the CMS that they supplied.
This redesign is nearly complete - and is fairly simple. there is one area of trouble though. the #container on the site is set to height 100% but, in FF it is resetting itself to 551px!
The site in question is www.vardyfoundation.com and if you load this in IE7 and look at the Projects->International Page you will see that the central container runs all the way down.
Within this central container is a main content holder - #body_page_column_a which in FF overshoots the #container - take a look .
Then if you load the site in Opera or Safari on Windows the results are even weirder.
I have spent a large part of today pulling my hair out over this issue and would really love some help with it. I have posted the 2 CSS references I made above, if you need more code either give me a shout or use your preferred web developer features in your preferred browser.
