Hi Holly, this is indeed what is happening. The image on the right is covering the left image. I have put my offline test online now. <http://css-class.com/x/tellura/> The image on the #rightfauxcol div is now transparent gif. The only fix I applied to IE6 was. #leftfauxcol, #rightfauxcol {height:1%} These fixes are buried in the embedded in [if gte IE 6] conditional comments in the header. Ian would you have happen to have download IE8 as an overwrite of IE7? If so those [if lte IE 6] will not be seen by your standalone version of IE6. If not remember to change the conditional comments from [if gte IE 6] to [if lte IE 6] or you will targeting IE8 as well. If you want to use conditional comments for importing style sheets for IE why not use just [if lte IE 7] and separate IE6 from IE7 rules by using * html within the same style sheets.
