Re: Problem with CSS layout

Hi Raj

thought that I'd try again.

If you specify an appropriate width and height in your "float" class, the
images line up (at least. in MSIE6 and Netscape 6.2).  The height is the
key.  In my quick test, a height of 175px did the job.  All boxes end up the
same height and there's no gaps.

You could perhaps go lower than that if the boxes didn't have a <.br> tag
followed by a <.p> for the images.

Of course, whatever height you choose must be able to accommodate the
tallest image (in this case "sm_audience14.jpg").  Opera6 seems to want even
taller boxes - it put the text for no.14 below the box. However, there were
no gaps, when using the setup shown below.

div.float {
    float: left;
    background-color: #ccc;
    color: #000;
    border: 1px dashed #000;
    margin: 10px;
    width:150px;
    height: 175px;
}
