I'm using a custom image to be the background of the container, but much of the image isn't revealed until I enter content or hit enter a few times placing non-breakable spaces.
Is there anyway I can set container to be a fixed set of dimensions so it's all revealed and I can add my content after the fact? I'm aware that a while back, IE users would have issues when creating fixed containers, causing overflow and so on. Is this still the case?
This is the code I'm working with:
