Hi Georg,
Many thanks for taking the time to answer this.

Thanks for this alternative, the original solution for this site is
preferred as each page is script-generated, so the float solution should
work without knowing what the main content will be (though the home page
area in question is basically static as you rightly guessed).

As an experiment I removed the height property; It correctly reduced the
container to the height of the content but it did not change the overlapping
behaviour in FF or Safari- is there another property that can trigger this
bug/feature?
Interestingly, removing height caused IE to show the overlapping behaviour.

John Jameson
