Odd behavior I don't understand. . .
Permalink
Hello all,
I've made a great theme that's working great, except for one little issue. I have a floated sidebar that seems to be clearing just fine. However, when I add it to my view.php theme file, I started getting odd behavior from some add-ons. I have a testimonials add on that the first testimonial clears the float, but the remaining ones drop below the sidebar content, like they're not cleared for some reason.
Then, on another page that contains a blog, same thing. 1st blog entry clears, but the remaining fall below the sidebar. Oddly enough, I have a survey on that page in the sidebar. When it's unanswered, the blog posts clear. When you answer the survey, then the 2nd blog post falls below the sidebar content.
I can fix it w/ a table (ewe!) or absolute positioned sidebar, but I don't want to have to resort to using Shawn Inman's javascript tricks to clear the footer past the sidebar content.
Any advice on this would be much appreciated.

Off the top of my head, I wonder if you've floated the main content area as well (like perhaps the sidebar is floated but not the main content area next to it)? I dunno, impossible to say without seeing the source.
