see minimal testcase https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=178915
in Bug 288076  	display problem with <pre> in trunk

It doesn´t depend on Float, see testcases.

Can you attach a screenshot (or upload one somewhere)? Here it looks ok to me.

enable JS then you won´t see it.
Using DOM Inspector I found the DIV for nav: width 15%, float:left, then another
DIV holding two scripts, also width 15%, but float:right, and then the div for
content. If js is enabled, the float:right DIV holds the Ads to the right.
If JS is disabled, you see that div as a 15% wide gap between nav menu and content.

There is an ad at the right which your Adblock has removed for you, thereby
making the main content float further to the right.

-> INVALID

Mats, you don´t need Adblock, simply disabling JS is sufficient.
The JS loads an <iframe> which loads some JS which loads a gif and some anchors.
If JS is disabled the ads div is empty, and the main content floats further to
the right.

Yes, I noticed that.
