I was working on a 3-column liquid layout, based on some float-based layout from ALA. I then tried to use some floating divs to create liquid, labelled forms, and discovered that my fieldsets were expanding beyond their containing form in all browsers (mostly testing w/Firefox 2). You can see a simplified version here:
http://www.jay.fm/files/overlapping.html I assumed this had something to do with floats or positioning. But John Hosking over at comp.infosystems.www.authoring.stylesheets pointed out that this happens without any floats at all, just by setting fieldset width to 100%: http://www.jay.fm/files/overlapping2.html What's going on here? Are the two problems actually the same, and if so, what's the right solution to get the fieldset to stay inside the form? I'd think this would be a common problem but Googling and list archives haven't revealed anything.
