Thanks for that.  I had not come across it though now having googled I  
see it is recommended widely. 
 
Do you know that the height hack will backfire in IE7? It doesn't in  
existing compliant browsers as far as know. 
 
I thought that suggesting a height for a div did not constrain the div  
height which is determined rather by the content. It seemed that the  
height hack was fairly innocuous as hacks go. 
 
I ask because we have authored a number of sites in some of which the  
height hack has been used.
