Try to change your code to: <br style="clear : both;" />

Hi all,

Take a look at http://planetgnarly.com/css_test.asp.

What I want to achieve is the <div class="content"> div expanding in
height to surround the left floated image inside it. I cant seem to find
any one method that works with Op6, IE6 and Moz1. I'm still learning, so
I am bound to have missed something.

Putting <br clear="all" /> at the end of the paragraph works in Op6  and
Moz1, but it seems like a bit of a kludge. And it doesnt work in IE6.
Giving the div an arbitary height (eg height: 1px;) in CSS and setting
overflow:visible works in IE6, but not in Moz1 or Op6.

Any ideas, or am I just going to have to make sure my text is always
taller than the images?

Oh, the CSS file is at http://planetgnarly.com/style/style3.css

Cheers,


Olly
