I can't seem to figure out how to get the MasterPage (the default one) to stretch automatically to hold content. :freaked: I have the latest version of BV5 and this issue is driving me crazy, especially on the checkout page where the contents of the billing address and
the cart summary run off the bottom of the page in FireFox and IE truncates the overflow.

I've tried encapsulating the master page controls and the ContentPlaceHolder inside an HTML table with no luck at all.

The BV5 theme was the basis (copied it and started making changes), but I didn't realize it was not ready for primetime (great code - yucky design).
Since the post above, I've found bad markup in some of the controls, but the CSS is the real problem (some elements inherit 8-9 levels deep, making tracking problems near impossible)

If you're not already, use Firefox's firebug, it will at least help you inspect the CSS and see what is being inherited. I would not recommend using tables, but in the default styles, it should stretch to hold the content unless there is a defined height and overflow property declared somewhere. Divs typically automatically size to show the contents within it.
