Topic: IE drivin' me insane - a CSS problem (Page 1 of 1)

hi there
it is a little bit embarrassing for me to post this here , because i am afraid the answer is very simple...but nevertheless....i got stuck
http://www.thespacebetweenus.com/fagu/

i think the problem is easy to see: do you see the photo of this guy? this is its style:

#agindex
{

float:left;
width:237px;
height:353px;
background-image:url(i/agindex.jpg);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:left;
margin-left:69px;
}

the margin is absolutely correct, but IE acts if there is still something on the left of the image.
any help or hints would be very much appreciated!

With those two floats you will more than likely need to implement the 3 pixel jog hack, but that doesn't appear to be your problem at the moment.

Just a brief look at the page and the css above, not sure exactly why your margin is messed up.

Have you tried either:

(a) losing the margin and setting the background position of the image to 69px left?
(b) rather than using a margin set padding-left on the #content area?
(c) just putting the image directly in the page since it appears to be content rather than layout related?

This is my guess:

Give it a shot; if it doesn't work, we'll have to come up with something else.
