Okay, maybe I'm seeing two issues then. Even when I remove the clear: both style from the headings in the #content section, the entire #content moves down below the sidebar on IE Windows ONLY. It looks okay in Mozilla and Mac when I don't clear, so clearing is a red herring for now. I think th

Hey all, I have a container with two side-by-side floats in it. The left float has a border-right to make it look like a separator. The issue was that I would never know which column was longer, but wanted them both to look the same height, so I borrowed a technique/hack from PositionIsEvery
