Div overflow not hidden

I am working on this site - [link removed]

It works in everything except IE7 and IE8, in compatibility mode (don't care about IE6) where the job listings on the right are not hidden correctly by their parent overflow property.

I'm pulling my hair out trying to figure it out, forcing me to get up on the wall, who has any ideas?

Below is a picture of the problem, chrome on the left, IE8 compatibility mode on the right.

Cheers, -Ben

If you use the Firebug validator element in your list, the div with classes "rssWrapper rss1" has the following styles: "overflow: visible, height: auto, width: 248px, right padding: 0px; position: absolute; top: 0px;"



You should probably also specify the height for this one (even for IE7 / 8) as it overflows.
