    David,

    Thanks a lot for the links, they really helped. I really wish I had a few more ounces of brain cells to google "css floats". The conflict of judgment between your posts make be believe you're definitely past the pre-andropausic stage. I guess it's no surprise you've reached 298 posts.

    Good riddance

      Dave,

      Sorry if i wasn't clear, but all im looking for is some explaining on how float operate.

      In my example, we have a give with with 600px then

      1. #float1 is added and as expected it floats to the left
      2. #float2 is added and since there isnt any place of the same line it's placed (floated) to line 2 (as expected).
      3. #float3 is added and floats to the left of #float2 (as expected)
      ...

        in HTML CSS
        You could create 4 text boxes, and then write javascript code to capture their onChange event and then update the union'ed textbox. Other than that, I dont think there's any other way around it.

            Beyond floats

            Hi all,

            I've been playing around with CSS floats, trying to understand how they work and I've come across a situation that doesnt make sense.

            From my understanding, any non-float elements should flow right past. In the code below, #float1 is displayed on line 1 and #float2, #float3 are on the next.

            After adding #txt I should expect it to be displayed next to #float1 but it's displayed on line 2. If #txt's...

                absolute positioning in FF

                Hi all,

                I'm trying to understand how absolute positioning works, and I came across a weird thing in FF. if I use the code below, then the DIV tags are overlayed on top of each other, but the P tags aren't i.e. Text P is display and then Text p on the next line.

                But if I switch the position of the P tags with DIV i.e. display div first and then P, than BOTH tags are overlayed.

                I'm just curious to know what...
