Hello, sorry in advance for my poor english ...
I will try to explain clearly my problem .
So I have one div (container) wich contain 2 others (2 colomns in fact)
I want to place another div under this container div.
When i add this other div it appears under the second colomn and not under the container, and it's only on firefox. In IE6 it comes under the container. I have find the solution to set a height for the container to force the div to go under but i'm sure there is another cleaner solution !!
I hope you can help me
Big thx -

you could try messing around with clear:both; -

Does the code validate first? Make sure you have closed the tag for the container div. Try what benjitastic suggested if still no luck can you possibly show us the page or the code : )

Neit,
If you have 2 columns side-by-side you're either floating them or using the position property. Setting a height is a solution, but it is only a temporary fix. In most cases web developers do not have the luxury of being able to know the exact height that a column will need to be.
Check this out: Learn CSS Positioning in Ten Steps; I think it will help.

Thanks for this helpfull link ! -
Yup.. that's the ABC's of CSS design.. Do your homework and get your floats cleared out. (notice the wordplay).
Totally irrelevant, but weekend is coming. Sry. :D
