hmmmmm. OK, so I've given my content div a margin-left: 160px; (10 more than the width of the leftNav div) but although it stops the problem it moves that whole div to the right 10px and obviously that's not what i want. I take it there's something I'm not quite getting with this, any more nudges in the 'right' direction...?
 
 
I was given another 'hack' (detailed bottom) which worked fine and as you can see only has two extra attributes.
 

#leftNav {
 float:left;
 width:150px;
}
 
* html #leftNav {
  margin-right: 10px;
  }
 
* html #content {
  height: 1%;
  margin-left: 0;
  } 
#content {
 background-color:#fff;
 margin-left: 160px;
 padding: 5px 5px 5px 10px;
}
 
the hack below works......!!!!!!
 
#content {
 background-color:#fff;
 margin-left: 150px;
 padding: 5px 5px 5px 10px;
 /margin-left: 0px;
 /float: right;
}
