Thanks Sandy, I did get it it though :)
 At the time it was working but there was a bg image on the 3rd column that 
would display under the div but it's all good now :)

Couple of things.

Liquid layouts are commonly used with em or percentages rather than with
pixels. (Think of an em as 100% of the font-size).

Positioning and floating are mutually exclusive. Floating takes something
out of the document flow. Position:relative positions something relative to
its original position. Using top:0 with position:relative does nothing. 

I can't get to the test page so I can't really help much.

A great layout for 3 col with headers and footers is Skiddo Lean (Ruthsarian
Layouts). Why reinvent the wheel?

trying to do the "dreaded" 3 column layout
http://icandfashion.com/icand2/controls/2.cfm
 as you can see the picture that should be on the right side is dropped
below the wrapper, I know there is a trick to this but can't recall.
 If i fix the whole "wrapper" to 1 size i can get it to work but I would
like the liquid layout.

 #rightWrap {
 ��� background-image: url(12s.jpg);
 ��� background-repeat: no-repeat;
 ��� background-position: left top;
 ��� height: 780px;
 ��� width: 200px;
 ��� position: relative;
 ��� float: right;
 ��� top: 0px;
 ��� clear: left;
 }

 thanks
 :)
