IE6 Bug - Float

Hi there people

Was wondering if anybody could help me. I am working on a page at the
moment but have got stuck. It displays perfectly in Firefox Mac/
Windows, Safari, Opera and IE7. The problem I am having is that it
breaks when displayed in IE6. I'm not sure if it is having trouble
rendering the floated Div's. The left and right nav do not show in
IE6, just a white space.

This is the site: http://sitem-cl.herts.ac.uk/busintel/template.html
Hopefully somebody might be able to help me.

Well here is a fix, change to rules in your stylesheet layout.css. Stop
floating your content div, not needed

#content {
/* Don't float content, IE peekaboo bug... I'v commented it out*/
/* float:left; */
/* Don't need to specify width either */
/* width:100%; */
background: #FFFFFF;
}

And set the top of your right side navbar

#navRight {
position: absolute;
/* Added this to postion the top */
top: 105px;
right: 10px;
width:210px;
height:500px;
background: #AA272F;
margin: 1px 0 0 0;
text-align:center;
}

Often, adding position:relative to floated elements makes IE6 start
behaving more civilized.
