Good afternoon Shelly,     
It was foretold that on 25/10/2007 @ 13:12:28 GMT-0400 (which was
14:12:28 where I live) [EMAIL PROTECTED] would write:

I was thinking along the lines of the peekaboo bug.... so adding a
hasLayout on #main could be a solution:

_height: 0;  (for IE6)
min-height: 0; (for IE7)

That made everything show up in IE7 but.... in IE6 the left column is
gone now... i have no clue for the moment as to why

anyway, here's the mockup:

hope it helps a bit.
