I've inherited a nightmare CSS project. Nearly 1800 lines of really

On this page: http://www.language-works.com/PSL/ster.htm I am having a
problem with a drop of the left hand side of the page in IE -- if I remove
the container stereographs altogether, it works fine in IE
http://www.language-works.com/PSL/ster2.htm but no longer in Firefox. I
prefer to stay with the first version, but I wonder if there is ANY way to
get this to work in IE? Is this a case of too many nested divs?
I've tried talking with the folks about re-writing the css but they are
nervous because they say it is stable it's also almost completely
unmaintainable. If you were in my shoes, what would you say?
I think I can speak for everyone in saying We feel your pain and
agreeing that this page has caught a case of Divitis. The XHTML markup
should be revised (in the truest sense of the word) for future
implementations, but here's a patch you can try right away.
IE6 can get a little help in the #cntnr-cntnt declaration by applying
float:left,clear:left, and zeroing out the margins to margin:0.
Good luck to you dealing with the folks :-)
