I'm afraid neither of these fit the bill... I tried adding a wide table to the markup, and the columns will tile one on top of each other, where I need them to tile side by side. The table I added is as follows:
<table width="2000px"> <tr> <td>argh</td> </tr> </table> The floated nav gets pushed down because the parent element can't accomodate such a wide table and a float horizontally... Thanks for the effort.
