I think you might be on the money with the mention of bugs, sticky.
Probably MSIE5/Mac's false inheritance of clear attributes from parent elements that's behind the float problems here and throughout the entire world.

They don't float?
So Aqua is heavier than water?

It's this newfangled brushed aluminium effect that drags em down, bit o' aqua on IE just ain't enough to keep 'em afloat anymore

haha sorry forgot about this.. it was the missing width values that it didnt like

Jay-NL · 03-08-2004, 09:12

That's not a bug. Floats should always, always have widths.

gray · 03-08-2004, 09:24
