Forgive me for asking the same question again, I definitely don't
want to waste anyone's time. Before I wrote last night, I tried
adding zoom: 1 to the floated divs and then to their containing block
but it didn't have any effect in IE7. The floated divs did have a
width applied which I understand also allows an element to gain
layout.

The problem turned out to be the width of the containing element in
IE7, it wasn't a layout issue after all.

Sorry, I'll try to be more clear on which solutions I've tried first
 next time.


FWIW - Floats have "layout." David Laakso gave you the best advice on
this: if you are to get a handle on older IE behavior, read, learn, and
inwardly digest
