Hello,

Before I ask my question, I will have everyone know that I'm not a spammer, this is a sincere question.

I'm fairly new to css and I'm having a height issue with a wrapper and some dynamic content. this is a test page to my project: http://combatpaintball.net/paintball/test.htm

Right now I'm using endless empty paragraphs to temporarily fix it. The problem is that the content size changes then sometime the content will be much shorter or much longer; it's really piss'in off. It seems like a really easy thing to fix, but for some reason, it's not cooperating with me.

Can someone take a look please? Thanks

I know your problem ,I meet

I know your problem ,I meet with it before,too.
this question is for the .ebaypaintballwrapper is float to right,but its container .contContainerdoesn't float.it is said in W3C said that the normal flow container won't include the float children height, but the float container can ,so you can set the .contContainer float right.

Re Re: I know your problem...

Well, I tried a few different things with the right float attribute, noe of them worked.

I'm at a loss. I'm about ready to pull my hair out.

It must be something in the way that I designed the site.

Re: Page not loading form me

Hey thanks for willing to help.

Actually, I figured out solid fix. What I did is wrpped the dynamic and static content in a table with no size atributes and it worked perfect.

Here's another link: http://combatpaintball.net/paintball/automagpaintballguns.htm

Chech it out. thanks.

I knew I needed an something that the dynamic content couldn't pinatrate and something that the container would react to in the right way; a table seemed to fit that description...

I have found a class

I have found a class may help you solve this problem ,you can use it in the container.and needn't to float the container.the height of container will change with the table.
.float-break
{
height: 1%; /* Fix for IE */
}

.float-break:after /* Terminate floating elements flow */
{
content: "-";
height: 0;
font-size: 0;
visibility: hidden;
display: block;
clear: both;
}
you can use it in the code like this:

.float-break:after /*

.float-break:after /* Terminate floating elements flow */ { content: "-"; height: 0; font-size: 0; visibility: hidden; display: block; clear: both; }

I dont quite understand what this does... can you explain this a bit further??? content:"-"????????

Never heard (or seen) this kinda code before...

just insert a hidden

just insert a hidden content,you can use content:"a" too,because the float content height won't be included.so insert a hidden content. a way to solve this problem.
p.note:before { content: "Note: " }
it can tell you what is the content meaning ,you can search it on W3C
