Welcome!

The difficulty /may/ be that you are designing the site as though 
everyone is at the same size window as you (regardless of the Operating 
System or browser). The page is relatively fine at 1024. She drops the 
right column float at windows smaller than that; and her header does not 
extend across at windows wider than that. Some might say you have no 
tabular data as such on the page and the entire page /could/ be handled 
table-less (nothing wrong with using tables when appropriate).

How to resolve these issues then becomes the question. You may be able 
to save what you have by letting the header go the full 100% width; 
coping with the right column float drop by manipulating the width 
adjustment of that column and clearing it while working at 800. Or you 
may wish to start with a clean sheet. Either way, others on the list may 
have opinions and solutions that will work well for you. Let's wait and 
see what they have to say...

Best,

~dL
