I am trying to design a page based on the 3 column / faux column technique 
given in chapter 8 of Dan Cederholm's excellent new book "Bulletproof Web 
Design" .

I have downloaded the sample code for the book.

My design is very similar, the differences being
1) The column widths are different.
2) Obviously the sliding gifs have been changed to match.
3) The page is centered by giving body margin: 0 auto; and text-align center;  
wrap is given width:90%; text-align: left;
4) A horizontal navigation div is inserted between the header div and main-body 
divs.

Everything displays OK in Firefox 1.0.6, Opera 8.02 and Netscape 7.2 but in IE6 
the background image for the left hand faux column (the one for wrap-inner) 
displays under the new horizontal navigation div but on top of the header div!

It's as if IE thinks that the header div is somehow sandwiched between the 
wrapper and wrapper-inner divs.
The right hand faux column works OK.

An example of the problem can be seen at
