FF annoys me.....

    I have this page :

    Linky

    In IE, the border wraps round the whole page - as it should considering its around the wrapper div.

    In FF, it only displays about 200px tall - I think this is because I havent specified a height, but I cant as the height of the page changes size depending on how much text is on the page... help!

    Try this:
    In your css file
    #holder{
    width:700px;
    border: 1px solid black;
    }

    In your CSS file you have the border syntax mixed up. Your version is typed:
    border: 1px black solid;
    and it needs to be:
    border: 1px solid black;

    Thought I should explain a little more. I was rushed earlier and could not give a better explaination.

    can you use a % as the height value?

    #main{
    position-relative;
    text-align:left;
    padding: 16px 16px 16px 16px;
    }
    Code (markup):
    That should do it...

    Hmmm.. the HTML validator is doing something strange.

    Just a thought, try this. Replace your Doctype
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//Dtd XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/tr/xhtml1/Dtd/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
    <html>

    with this:

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" >

    and let me know.

    I guess a 'sexual favour' could mean hook you up with some sexy page 3 girl or something. It doesn't necessairly have to involve him/her bodily. Or a lifetime supply rubber Johnnies. Something like that it could be....
