But that's not a problem -- the third column overlaps in all browsers. 
That's what it's supposed to do. It's just that in IE6, the middle 
column expands to hold the picture, so the overlap occurs not just on 
the overflowing pic but the entire column. In a real layout, I'd have a 
min-width to prevent these things, but want to make sure that even if 
someone puts content that is too big even for the min-width, the columns 
won't drop. That's all I really care about -- no columns dropping.

Georg, where would I add the extra wrapper you refer to? And would this 
prevent the overlap in all browsers?
