[thelist] css formatting

I've got a bunch of divs that I'm positioning absolutely (or is that
absolutely positioning).  Same old story...works fine in IE6 and Netscape 6
but Netscape4.7 seems to have a problem with the width property.  It works
fine if there's content in the div that takes up the entire width of the div
but not when it's smaller than the width of the div.  I want the #quote and
#sidepic to be exactly the same width...  Here's the CSS, any ideas?:

#content
{position:absolute;top:80px;left:158px;width:600px;background:#384651;paddin
g:5px;border-left:1px solid black;}
#sidenav {position:absolute;top:200px;left:20px;width:137px;}
#quote {position:absolute;top:80px;left:20px;width:137px;height:150px;}
#sidepic {position:absolute;top:350px;left:20px;width:137px;height:188px;}
.quote {font-family:verdana, helvetica,
sans-serif;font-size:12px;background:#000000;padding:3px;color:#FAFAD2;layer
-background-color:#000000;}
.sidenav
{font-size:12px;color:#000000;background:#FAFAD2;padding:2px;layer-backgroun
d-color:#FAFAD2;}

here's the page (the quote is the top black and the sidenav is directly
below it): http://www.prispop.com/prisdiv.asp
