hi

asp.net 2.0

this markup don't work in IE8 and FireFox, more specific it means that
background-color:Green isn't set.
maybe it's set but I cannot see it...

<div id="BottomPanel" style="width:100%; background-color:Green;"
runat="server">
<div style="float:right; margin-right:20px; color:White;
padding-bottom:10px; padding-top:10px;" >
hello world
</div>
</div>

any suggestions?

Try setting a height value for the "BottomPanel" div element. It might
be that the float:right property is causing the inner div element to
ride above its container so the latter is collapsed vertically.

IE8 and firefox are correct. the div bottom panel has no height (as
floating objects span their containers so have no effect on container
size).

thanks to both of you, the problem is solved
