IE6 doesn't push up the side columns, it expands the #masthead. It's
IE's old "auto-expansion bug", and that can be "cured" by adding...

* html #masthead {overflow-y: hidden;}


Your layout doesn't tolerate font resizing well, which it has to since
the text is unreadable small at default.

Also: you've triggered IE's "em font-resizing bug"...

...which leads to even less tolerance for font resizing.

The validation of code is an assessment of the code quality. Choosing to 
employ a bit of invalid code because its benefits outweigh its 
detriments is not the same as simply having a page with errors.

It's not really fair to claim they need to validate if the answer you supply
them is invalid itself.

Other methods of gaining layout are available, height: 0 in a conditional
comment being one I sometimes you. You can always view the chart on
havingLayout [1] as an example of other methods.

Hi John,

Try this:
#content{zoom:1}

Also maybe wanna have a look at validating the source code, which has a 
few errors.

Hope it helps.
