Overlapping elements in PDF

jimpogo
I'm working on a web report with different elements, tables and divs. In the PDF version tall tables that need to span more than one page seem to fall behind other elements.

In my screenshot I colored tables yellow so you can see how the fall behind other divs lower in the document:

This does not happen in web view, or in print (paper) view.

What Prince command can I put on those tables to allow them to push the other elements further down?

    overlap!

Are the tables or surrounding elements floated, positioned, or taken out of the normal flow in some way?

The tables sit in divs that are floated left.

I tried float:none, and then float:left with clear:both but they still overlap (the very tall ones -- smaller tables in the same classed divs are ok).
