Hi Zoe:
Thanks for answer my question. I read the articles and now I play with CSS take 
a look that how it's like in Firefox and IExplore because in my University are 
the browser must used by students. Personally I use Firefox but others still 
with IExplore. I'll try to put the page online. Then you can take a look and 
say me what´s wrong. For second option 
(http://www.communitymx.com/abstract.cfm?cid=E9BF0) I can't buy this book first 
because I have not money and second because Cuba is not allowed in sites like 
PayPal or Stormpay.

Regards

Reynier,

We're never going to be able to give you much help without a live page to look 
at, but I can tell you that the reason divMainContainer does not hold 
divRightNav is because divRightNav is floated.  This removes it from the flow 
of the document [1].  To contain it, use one of the methods on this page:

Also, I strongly suggest you give your ids more intuitive names that describe 
their content, not their presentation or what HTML element you plan to apply 
them to.  This makes your CSS much more maintainable.  For instance, let's say 
divRightNav contains little image links to featured content on your site.  
Change:

#divRightNav

to

div#features

with the HTML now looking like:
<div id="features">
