Topic: Problem with div tags in Firef, really dont understand it, help needed

Hi all i currently have a test server running at: http://cartho5.freehostia.com/index.php

The problem i have is this, the container for the central area isnt being wrapped around the content in Firefox, IE is successfully doing it, but i have failed to find a help topic that address's this subject, mainly because i dont know what the problem would come under.

The pictures provided will show exactly what i mean;

Picture 1 - Internet Explorer:

Picture 2 - Firefox

This should probably be moved?

Is the content in that div being floated? Try adding this to the end of the div:

<div class="clearer"></div>

No, the content in the div is not being floated, and your advice fixed it.

Appreciate the speedy response!

Actually, it is being floated:

#leftfieldset {
    float:left;
    padding:5px;
    width:48%;
}

#rightfieldset {
    float:right;
    padding:5px;
    width:48%;
}
