For IE bugs I usually just keep widths and heights, padding and margins

in separate "boxes".  And this site (www.tibbles.net/misc/blog) works 
fine in IE 5.5, and 7, 8, firefox, NN, and a bunch of others that I got 
screenshots for.  What on earth is going on with 6.0??  I'm completely 
stuck here! 

The summary - in the "main" div, I have a sidebar floating left, and a 
content div floating right.  The sum of their widths is less than the 
width of the parent container, even if I ADD all margins and paddings to 
the width.  I've no idea how this is even possible. 
I've included a conditional style sheet to try and work around it.  In 
ie6.css, I've put:
#content {
width: 500px;  (over 60px smaller than original css)
background-color:blue;
}

And I have a blue box that is the SAME size, with a smaller child box!  
How is that possible?


This is the style sheet - the ENTIRE thing:  (I dont' know what is relevant)

Thanks for any insights!  I'm not opposed to learning on my own either, 
but I can't figure out what to google in this situation. 
regards,
Cathy
