I've used Divs to style a new website layout I am working on.
I have however encountered a problem:
http://www.bc.silwing.dk/guild
If you open the site in firefox, the content box's background does not stretch to fit the div it's containing when the text goes over its bounds.
However if you open it in internet explorer, it does..
Can anyone help me solve my css/divs so that the content does stretch. I made the two divs inside the content body to make "columns" for the different text.
My stylesheet is as follows:
and my HTML
Update:
There is also the issue of the small images (that are to be replaced by some repeating pattern) out in the left and right side doesn't continue down when the page becomes longer from the content.
