Wordpress and divs
I'm trying to customize my theme and I think I have hit a brick wall.
I'm trying to do what arstechnica does on their main page where they show excerpts from a number of their posts and once it reaches a certain point it wraps around to the right of a column. I understand this is likely being done with the aid of floats but the problem I am having is that if the sidebar (set to float right) is taller than the content of the post the height of the post is forced to be a little bit taller than the sidebar.
I've tried using some extra divs as containers hoping to have one big div hold both the sidebar div and another div just for holding all of the content divs but the nested "post" div keeps getting stretched.
I'm heading to be but this is going to be bothering me all weekend, anyone?
