In her test case the table BFC has specified, computed and used height of 300px which will results in a collision with the right (blue) floater box regardless of its width, thus the rule applies and the BFC should be cleared. If you don't think this is true, can you be more specific (in the context of the original example) as to why the space should be sufficient? Fantasai's example http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-archive/2012Jan/att-0035/foo.html Thanks, Rossen
