<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>yeah, just
the layout problems where the page content doesn't start rendering until
you get down to the bottom edge of the left sidebar, so you have big top area
gap where you wanted to see the page content filling in.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

IE was just being stupid about floated layouts or something; didn't think to

<DIV><BR><BR></DIV></DIV>Well after spending quite a bit of time looking into it
and trying a variety of things, the best that I could do was to reduce the
margin on the right for IE and this seems to allow the layout to work down a
little below 1024 width before it bumps down. <BR><BR>The right side margin was
there in case anyone wanted to use a right sidebar, but since we aren't
currently using that, I just reduced the margin.<BR><BR>With Firefox it works as
it did before since it doesn't have a layout problem. <BR><BR>Hopefully that
will make it work ok on your IE. I think if we need to support smaller widths
than that we'll have to spend more time with the CSS, but I think it will do for
now.<BR><BR>Jeff<BR></BODY></HTML>
