A layout I'm working on right now uses these classes
to position a vertical nav bar to the left of my
content:

.parentLeft {float: left; width: 190px; height: 500px;
margin: 10px 0 10px 5px;}
.parentRight {margin-left: 205px; height: 500px;
margin: 10px 10px 10px; 0}

This works really well, until a large form element
(like a wide textarea) appears in the content.  When
the window is resized, the textarea resists the
resize, and the whole content area moves below the
nav.

I know this is normally expected and even desired
bahavior, but in this specific instance, I would
rather there was a little horizontal scrolling.  How
can I have a 2 col layout with the left column fixed
width, the right column fluid width, and horizontal
scroll bars on resize, instead of floating?
