auto height not working!

[mattrd]

http://dev.esin.ianncomm.com/public/abouthttp://dev.esin.ianncomm.com/css/public.csshttp://dev.esin.ianncomm.com/css/screen.cssthe container should be expanding so the column on the left fits inside the page, but instead the overflow is being shown flowing outside of the container. I can't give this a fixed height because the height of the container changes page to page. I have the height set to auto but something is not working. I don't know what the problem is. Can somebody help me please?

Absolute positioning will do exactly that. Because it is removed from the document flow for rendering the page and then added back in at the position specified, the page does not accommodate its length. (short version)The cure is to wrap all of those div's inside a containing div and delete the position absolutes. Use the Normal Document Flow to do what you want. Floats, margins and paddings will do this for you.
