Maybe it's me, but in your stylesheet I don't see this fixed with:
<quote>
..boxLeft {
float: left;
color: #39C;
background: transparent;
font-weight: bold;
margin: 0 1% 0 1%;
padding: 0;
}
</quote>
In IE6, 1024x768px all the items you mentioned (topbox, bottom box,
leftbox en content box) are 100% wide at this moment.
I use 'columns' to position menu and content fluidly side by side
myself. To achieve this I positioned the menu column _absolute_. Not
using floats helped me a lot in being able to put columns side by side.
Combining a fixed width, absolutely positioned menu box with a 'free'
content (no div necessary) within margins set for the body works fine
for me.
