Hello - I use a floated layout for my website with a shadow on the left and bottom of the body.
Everything displays fine in Firefox and Opera browsers, yet in IE the height of the footer almost doubles.
Furthermore, IE removes the shadow!(I am not sure if this would be a separate thread)

<div id="footer"><span class="footerimg"><img src="images/tom.jpg"/></span>

margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
body {font: 62.5%/1.6 "Lucida Grande";
background-color:#ffffcc;
text-align: center;
min-width: 760px;
position: relative;
top:30px;
left:10%;
}
#wrapper {background-color: #ffcc99;
width: 720px;
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: left;
}
#content {
width: 420px;
float: left;
}
#rightcontent {
background-color:#ffffcc;
width: 280px;
float: right;
}
#footer {
background-color:#fff;
width:680px;
height:30px;
padding: 0px 20px;
clear: both;
}
.text{position:relative;
width:230px;
height:30px;
top:-32px;
}
#footer .footerimg{position:relative;
left:280px;
top:0;
}
#rightcontent{
padding-top: 20px;
padding-bottom: 20px;
}
#rightcontent * {
padding-left: 20px;
padding-right: 20px;
}
#content * {
padding-right: 20px;
padding-left: 20px;
}
Any advice would be very appreciated!
