As a footnote to this thread I want to add that I did in fact stick to the light and the way and the website was launched as XHTML/CSS. In my darkest hour of frustration I did try and re-do the pages with HTML tables and found that it was causing more troubles than it was worth. So, I persisted and found a way to get the layout to behave in IE with divs. I won't bore you all with the whole story but I found out what IE needed to render the page in it's own peculiarly flawed way.
If anyone wants to see the finished version check out: http://www.books24x7.net.au - just don't view source on the New Releases page (that was out of my control). If anyone wants to enter the free competition go ahead as it's a great prize and there is a statistically good chance of winning. Thanks to the folks on this list who tried their best to keep me on the straight and narrow (especially "BHP" David).
