You just might get away with it (depending on the content) if you
don't mention width at all. But you explicitly set "width: auto;" - in
the absence of margins, this means "width: 100%". Given that it is
filling 100% of the available width, were is it meant to float to?
Ah, yes. Thank you for the info -- this makes more sense now.
Auto width makes no sense with floats, set the width in em instead of
px if the float contains text, not an image.
I do believe my best course of action would be to re-dive into the
documentation to, as there are some fundamentals I obviously do not
yet fully comprehend.
Thanks again,
