Float bug for Windows IE 5.0 and 5.5
If you are using Windows IE 5.0 or 5.5 you will notice that some lines of "Text"
(5 or 6 depending on your default font size) are pushed to the right some pixels.
This shouldn't happen, the float isn't overlapping the div element with silver
background, so all the lines should have the same alignment. It's a minor bug and
the same thing happens if you mess with the right floating elements, but you won't notice
unless the text is also right aligned. No workarounds found, you could get the same
visual display using absolute positioning but some functionality provided by the floats
would be lost.
