I have two different methods of trying to layout a page that has a header,
footer, left column for navigation buttons (client insists on the image
based buttons), and a main content column as seen on: 
http://www.asian-herbs.com/index.cfm 

The problem with the above is the left column is floated over the left
border of the main content column. In FF/NS I can set the border to
transparent and everyone is happy. In IE the border shows black, so I had to
change the color of the left border to match the background color of the
background image (also as per client requirements). The problem with this is
it covers the left most portions of the background images. I would prefer to
be able to fix this page if possible. 
Here is the css: http://www.asian-herbs.com/assets/styles.css  

====================================================
Another Option (as modified from
http://www.fu2k.org/alex/css/onetruelayout/example/interactive)

HTML: http://www.aftershockweb.net/bd/css/onetruelayout/index2.cfm 
CSS: http://www.aftershockweb.net/bd/css/onetruelayout/styles2.css 
The problems I am having with this example are:

1.) Forcing the left nav buttons to stay against the left margin
2.) Forcing the main content to not disappear under the nav buttons with
smaller window sizes like 800X600; at 1024X768 this layout's display is
acceptable in all three browsers.

I am willing to use either method or scrap it and start over if there is a
better way.
