clearing clears sidebar too

Sent by Trish Meyer on 12 November 2005 05:05

Hi all,

I hope this isn't too much of a challenge. I hope it's really easy to 
fix... a really common error (that I just can't seem to find 
anywhere).

I've got a new site mostly designed, but have run into a problem, 
which I've explained in the body copy of the page at:

http://www.collageartists.org/test7x1.html

Basically, adding a clear: both to the headers in the main content 
area, ALSO clears the #leftcol (sidebar). #leftcol is a floated 
element, and #content moves to the right thanks to a left margin.
Everything is positioned: relative, nothing is absolute (if that helps).

The CSS is at
http://www.collageartists.org/stylesheets/caa7_x1.css

Please help! I've troubleshooted this for hours and can't figure out 
how to fix it.

thank you thank you thank you,

Trish
