 Hmmm... My website has three CSS columns. I thought I recalled an incident,

It may be that the page dropped the float because IE6 and lower have problems 
in computing/honoring the width of block elements that contain italic text.




Thanks David, that's what it was!! I won't worry about IE6 at this point. Doubt 
any of my prospecitive clients are using it, so I won't cater to the minority 
audience.
