problem with div layout in IE and firefox

[hos2]

I wanted to create a layout with a column on the lift with 100px width (this because of a fixed width background image. 2 headers rows starting on absolute positions under that and then the main window which goes from 100px to 5px to the right and 50px from the bottom. I can't get the bottom property to work in IE since it will wrap to the content available and not to the size I give ?????

is there a solution for this ?

example is on

and I also put a little box on the right top side which shows in IE but is ignored in firefox

Is it perhaps easier to send objects into comets then to force a div to be size as pre dimensioned in the stylesheet in IE ??????

I don't see any reason why you shouldn't be able to send objects into Comet stores. I've checked their website and don't see any mention of entry restrictions for objects.

Maybe you were looking for something like this, though:

I don't see any use of the bottom property on the page you referenced in your original post.

sorry I already changed my page to tables a bit but now I'm busy changing it back. I think the div.table can do the trick also for so far I can tell
