Hi, I posted on the block formatting context items in CSS21 a while back, and while i do understand that it would take a lot of time to answer every question, i would be very thankful if someone would give me some hints on the following: How do nested and adjacent block formatting contexts interact? My current guess would loosly be something like: A nested block formatting context by default fits into its containing block formatting context forcing the size of the container, overridable by explicit width/height properties on the container. Due to table model restrictions the override case never occurs when the container is display: table-cell. Sibling block formatting contexts are flowed similar to regular blocks, unless they are both floated or both have display: table-cell or both have display: inline-block. Any help much appreciated, /Staffan
