This worked out fine, I now I'm double posting but just want to show how the layout turned out. SOBI Template Don't mind the rest of the website, I'm working on it

Whaha thats the same as 10 Euro's right ? Ok, nice to know i knew it had something to do with a height property, but never heard of the overflow for this use. I have been searching for this for 2 day's now I think, even posted the same question on some dutch forums. But they think beginners are to low for them, so they just don't answer your questions. So after all I really like to thank you, also for the lesson Great help here

Ok I'll give it a try, back in a sec ... EDIT: Damn that worked, you're goood I've never had this problem earlier, is it common to put this option in your container div's ?? 1000 times thanks

Thanks for the warm welcome The problem is the layout is separated in to several containers with two or more floating divs in them, now the containers : - sobi_title - sobi_details - sobi_url - sobi_tip - comment_container They've got some problems with theire height, if I put a border around sobi_details then the border is showing on top of the div 3 replys in 15 minuits, damn fast Exquise me for the english:P EDIT: I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.12

I am using Notepad ++ just for the HTML and the markup of my templates and usually for my CSS coding to, but sometimes Dreamweaver is really easy when making your stylesheets it has a good auto-completion tool. Notepad ++ I think ErisDS meant something like this, Firebug is the perfect tool to screen your code and search for that one ting thats wrong Firebug (Firefox add on)

Hi there, I know this is my first post but I am creating a template for a Joomla component SOBI2. I don't know whether you know it or not. My problem is that the layout of the template is perfect but the container div's are acting strange. The container divs around the floating divs aren't stretching with there content, maybe it is better for a example of this: Example As you can probably see the HTML code is fine, so for the ease I'll post the CSS code beneath: #sobi_title { clear:left; width:100%; border:1px solid #000; height:30px; margin:15px 0px; } #sobi_title_1 { float:left; width:70%; } #sobi_title_2{ float:left; width:30%; text-align:right; } #sobi_details { clear:left; width:100%; border:1px solid #000; margin:15px 0px; } #sobi_details_1 { float:left; width:15%; } #sobi_details_2 { float:left; width:85%; } #sobi_url { clear:left; width:100%; margin:15px 0px; border:1px solid #000; } #sobi_url_1 { float:left; width:15%; height:30px; } #sobi_url_2 { float:left; width:85%; height:30px; } #sobi_tip { clear:left; width:100%; margin:15px 0px; border:1px solid #000; } #sobi_tip_1 { float:left; width:15%; } #sobi_tip_2 { float:left; width:85%; } #comment_container { width:100%; border:1px solid #000; } The container div with the content "beschrijving" and "blahh + image" is one pixel the border is on top of the content, how can this happen. I also tried to apply the height:auto; style but this ain't helping. When this template is finished I want to contribute it to the SOBI community so it is a sort of donation to them. I'm going to use it myself also but I want to give them someting back for there great component. I can also post it here if there are some Joomla and SOBI users ?? Can one of you experts out there see wat I'm doing wrong ?? Thanks for you time
