I validate as I go. Only way I can keep on top of things. Then, after I 
put it up where people can see it, I validate again, just in case!

I'm just a learner here, myself, so I'm CCing this back to the CSS-D 
list where the experts can fix things!

IE has a bug/feature that autoexpands containers to make room for 
whatever it thinks is inside them. So I guess the fix is to figure out 
what IE is making large enough to require expanding the container.

Sounds like the IE non-standard box model. In quirks mode, it doesn't 
calculate container dimensions properly, generally producing containers 
that are bigger than they're supposed to be, I think.

I can't even guess about that one!
