Hi I need some help, am doing site using css. Having problems when i add a background colour to div#content or even div#container. When i put images inside - Result in firefox great but in IE it seems to put the images under the container as if i dont add a background colour you can see the images - see link below - open in both browsers - anyone know a work around?
