: Does it need to be absolutely positioned?

I haven't come up with any way around it.
 
: you could try:
: 
: wrap the nav and content div inside a container div and just
: before the closing container tag place a cleaner div:
: 
: <div class="cleaner">&nbsp;</div>
: <!--end container--></div>
: 
: .cleaner {
:         clear:both;
:         height:1px;
:         font-size:1px;
:         border:none;
:         margin:0; padding:0;
:         background:transparent;
: }

I guess this might work if I floated navigation div to the left instead of absolutely positioning it.  I won't be able to test that until I get home tonight, though...

thanks,
Stephen
