Hi,

I am yet another new person to this forum and can see how helpful it is to
those of us learning css.  Thanks to those who offer their expertise, as I
have learned a lot just by reading. 

This is my first attempt at utilizing css.  I've "adapted", aka butchered, a
3 col, absolute, fluid layout good for compliant browsers AND ie5/6.  Worked
great till I started tinkering with it.  I wanted a 3 col, left fixed,
center & right fluid source ordered layout.  I'm somewhat there, but I'm
having what looks to be an age old problem of getting my footer below the
longest column.  

Left col = absolute, width fixed;
middle col = relative, width fluid %, margin-left positions;
right col=absolute, width fluid %.

I looked around a lot including the archive postings here, the
FooterBeneathSidebar here, have already tried floats (mine seem to break in
ie5,6;  I did read somewhere (?) there was a bug w/ ie6 and left floats; so
I abandoned my old fluid float 3col that worked great in ff, opera & ie7,
but not ie5/6.  I now need a fixed left col anyways, so changed from floats
to this layout which played nice with everyone - although don't have a mac
to test). 

Striped down file is on <http://www.thequarrygroup.com/test/save.htm> -
thanks a million for any advice/pointers in advance.   Appreciate any
critique in general on the css/xhtml. 

Many regards,
Liz
