Here's a new, static page with all validation errors fixed:
http://dev.fluorideworks.org/validationtest.php

Unfortunately that doesn't solve the problem at all.

I'm pretty certain now that the problem is somewhere in the following css:
#sloganMontage {
  clear: both;
  z-index: 50;
  background: white;
  position: relative;
  width: 100%;
  left: 0;
  top: 0;
  height: 190px;

  background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
#sloganMontage #sloganBar {
  z-index: 45;
  position: absolute;
  left: 249px;
  top: 1px;
  right: 0;
  height: 90px;

  background: #95c33d;
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
#sloganMontage img {
  z-index: 99;
  position: absolute;
  left: 219px;
}


You can see I'm getting a little tricky here, and it was a difficult
design to realize modularly.  I realize IE6 must not be obeying my
absolute positioning that's inside a relatively positioned element.
It's clear that #sloganBar is not obeying its "right: 0;" directive
that would give it some actual width, and that #sloganMontage img
isn't obeying its "left: 219px;"

I'd hate at this stage in the game to have to totally reengineer my
whole solution.  I was just hoping some kind CSS'er over here would
know some magnificent fix that would allow me to shunt this up and
ship it off.
