Say you have a div, give it a definite width and put elements in it, in my case an img and another div.
The idea is that the content of the container div will cause the container div to stretch out, and be a background for the content. But when I do this, the containing div shrinks to fit the non-floating objects, and the floating objects will be either all the way out, or half out, half in, and not have any bearing on the size of the big div.
Why is this? Is there something I’m missing, and how can I get floated items to stretch out the height of a containing div?
