I see what you mean and it works beautifully in FF/PC, but I'll be danged if I can get it to work in IE/PC (http://test.hinshawdesign.com/css/float_debug.html). I have two questions related to that: 1/ Can you elaborate by what you mean when
 you say "create some sort of min-width simulation for IE/win"?

Have a read here: <http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/wd_1_02_01.html#item3>
...where I describe the use of IE-expressions for max/min-width
simulation. Should give you an idea.

2/ Would it be a horrible mistake to use absolute positioning for these three content areas? I realize it would fix the width of the page which comes with its own problems. I have implemented it here: http://test.hinshawdesign.com/css/float_debug_ap.html

Absolute positioned elements won't fall down, but I won't recommend it
as a solution for large areas on a page. Depends on what's in the page,
of course, but AP doesn't give much play-room.

You can use percentages in an absolute positioned layout, which will
give you a fluid page-width. Still not the best solution though.
-------

BTW: the use of EM for font-size on body makes the 'extreme font-step
bug' pop up in IE/win. Using percentage for font-size on body will kill
that bug, no matter how you define font-size further into the page.
