It is a bit hard to see quite the code I put up in yours, perhaps
I don't know your context well enough? But yours behaves much
better if you were to do things like:
div#moststuff {
border-left: solid thin blue;
color: black;
margin: 0em 0 5em 13em;
padding: .5em;
}
There is a margin, see, in which the nav float sits.
and
div#leftbit {
float: left;
margin: 0;
padding: 1ex;
width: 12em;
max-height: 30em;
overflow: auto;
border: solid thin blue;
}
I would forget the overflow fandangle and max height. But this em
based width behaves better with the nav set in ems and takes
account of font size adjustment by user.
With those changes, your site behaved. But I would simplify a lot
of things. Anyway, best of luck.
