It is not so much a float-problem as a general problem with IE6' lack of
respect for CSS-defined dimensions. Wide stuff in narrow containers,
with no space to play on, doesn't help much either. The general
font-size is also "fixed" to something equal to the 'smallest' size in
IE, which doesn't allow for any of IE6' many dimensional errors.
The drop-behavior is easily reproduced by 'ignoring font size' in IE6 -
containers immediately expands until there's not enough space left.
One way to work around it might be to add...
#sidebar {overflow: hidden;}
* html #contentHome {width: 500px; overflow: hidden; margin-right: -10px;}
...which should constrain the width of the right column and the
non-floating center column, and make it possible for a negative
backside-margin to work on a non-float (in IE/win only of course, since
it _is_ a genuine IE-bug).
Also: some of those source-code bugs (that the html validator will point
out) are also disturbing, so fix those too.
