[Pro] Firefox Floats and Clears?

Freeway

Can someone smarter than me please look at this page and tell me what is wrong with my floats and clears? It looks fine in Safari and Chrome but NOT in Firefox.

Ugh!

Thanks
Billy

This page is well designed but an entirely mess if it comes to code.

Honestly I haven’t got the time to investigate all, so here in brief two simple rules:

Naming the items

Give your items meaningful names. This has NOTHING to do with semantic, just names to “represent a function” of an item e.g. sidebar-header.

If you can’t find a proper name for some of your items, this often indicates that the item isn’t really needed. Skip it. This helps you to structure a page and yourself.

Floating

A float is to set if you want to have divs side-by-side. If you want to have them one above the other, remove this float.

Once done we could open the next investigation round (sorry if it sounds a bit hard :-).

Cheers

Thanks Thomas,
Your are right, I’m being sloppy.

So I named everything in the Side Bar. I have no Floats or Clears at all. The only thing I have selected is Fixed% on the background items that hold the Web Yep Menus. It look great in Safari and Chrome, but in Firefox the Web Yep Menus collapse. The Web Yep Menus are set as flexible as well as their containers that hold them.
