The right column is too wide in those versions, and the float drops. See: <http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=BoxModel> There are any number of ways (hacks) to solve that problem: <http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=BoxModelHack> including methods not using a hack: <http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=AvoidingHacks> A different but nevertheless problematic issue is the font rendering in IE. You have set the font-size on the body in em's. This triggers a bug in ie causing all your fonts to go goofy on zoom. Complicating it further, you've got the content in pixels. So everything goes goofy except the content text-- and it does /not/ zoom. --Set font-size 100.01%/1.2 on the body. --Use em's for font size thereafter and a raw number for line height(1.1, 1.2) --1em for the content text is cool. Best, ~dL PS The calendar breaks the layout on zoom in ff. Personally, I could never figure out why they are on sites as most everyone has a perfectly good one on their machine. ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
