Many thanks to everybody who replied and helped with this.
I've re-written the page, using floats instead of absolute positioning,
and ems instead of percentages:

It now doesn't need any conditional styles. It's not going to win any

The presentation I'm doing is for their summer school this August, and
is about Web pages for authors. Hopefully I'll be able to get them to

Many thanks for that, James. You learn something every day. I was
beginning to doubt IETester, but clearly it's getting it right.
Regarding the conditional comments, I thought that this issue had been
fixed? There was a discussion

Peter,
I created a template that holds a whole bunch of pieces and parts for
a site I am working on. You can include or exclude the different
pieces/parts on each page as you wish. It should fit what you are

It's an issue with multipleIE, basically IE6 thinks that it's whatever
version your native IE installation is when evaluating conditional
styles because multiple IE doesn't change the IE version that's stored

I happen to have IE6 on my computer at work. I'm going to be leaving
shortly, but I took a look at your page and code quick. The page
doesn't look the same in IE6 as it does in Firefox. The left and right
navigation menus are both pushed a ways off the screen. Based on your

Well, I also so happen to have IE6 still on my XP install (I dual-boot
Vista and XP), which I didn't upgrade to use for testing. I'm still
