Hi,
I'm building a site using CSS and have run into a few problems. I'm trying
to build a three col with header layout (liquid layout) and here is what
I've got so far : www.paulwatt.info/test/index.html

It looks ok-ish in firefox and opera,netscape but rubbish in IE, why is
this
and what can I do to stop it?

I want the right hand col to line up with the right hand edge of the
header
bar, but i cant seem to, even though i'v specified right:0px in that div

Please help as I'm pulling my hair out!

cheers

Paul

alt.html.critique isn't the right group for these types of questions,
crossposted and f-up set to alt.html

IEs limited CSS capabilities and its many CSS bugs should be learned in
addition to learning CSS if you want stuff to work in IE.

The "right" property is buggy in IE, see if this helps:

http://oswd.org has thousands of free templates, which might just show you a

center column, and setting margins for center text, and no float on the
center box, will stop the wrap
