Firefox 0.8; float + overflow:hidden

Hi,

clip gibt es nur bei absolut positionierten Elementen,

Warum?
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/visufx.html#propdef-clip sagt:

'clip'
    Value:   <shape> | auto | inherit
    Initial:   auto
    Applies to:   block-level and replaced elements
    Inherited:   no
    Percentages:   N/A
    Media:   visual

The 'clip' property applies to elements that have a 'overflow' property with a value other than 'visible'. Values have the following meanings:

Ok, gilt also nur, wenn overflow anwendbar ist. Also gucken wir mal da nach (http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/visufx.html#propdef-overflow):

'overflow'
    Value:   visible | hidden | scroll | auto | inherit
    Initial:   visible
    Applies to:   block-level and replaced elements
    Inherited:   no
    Percentages:   N/A
    Media:   visual

Auch kein Hinweis auf absolut positionierte Elemente.

Wo versteckt sich denn die Einschränkung?

cu,
Andreas
