We usually apply a 'min-width' hack to IE/win to fix that problem.
Depends on 'mode' (Strict/Quirk) which one you might be able to use.
You may find something useful here:

Most problems are related to IE/win these days.
Just have a look at all the bugs and lack of standard-support that the
IE-team have to fix for the next version (IE7), and you'll get a good
picture of our daily struggle :-)

Jim,
Inline solves the problem of a gap occurring when reducing the width but now
when the width is reduced, the right div goes below the left div. I would
like the right div to stay to the right of the left div, not below. The
right div can scrunch up or go off the right side of the screen and not be
displayed if the browser window is not wide enough.

A common theme I am experiencing is fix one problem create another.
I will give your recommended reading a good going over this weekend!
Thank you
Tom

Thomas,

The to fix the IE double margin bug, in your block_1 div change
display: block (which is not needed) to display: inline.

Hi Thomas,
This may help you address specific browsers issues while keeping your
stylesheets plain and simple (CSS filters free):
http://www.tjkdesign.com/articles/branching.asp

As Zoe suggested already, the wiki contains CSS layouts that are NN4
compatible.

Sure, but you need to decide what degree of support you want to include 
for NN 4.7.  Does the site need to look the same, or does it need to 
work?  If it really truly needs to look the same, I recommend you use a 
table layout and style its content with CSS, and get ready for some 
headaches.  If it just needs to work and be accessible to NN 4.7 users, 
I recommend you hide your styles from it using @import, perhaps with a 
*very* simple sheet served to it via link just to style text.

See the wiki for methods of hiding CSS from NN 4.x and for links to some 
layouts that work with NN 4.x.

[css-d] layout does not work the same in NS and IE

[Thomas French]

I am new to CSS and am having trouble getting css to work consistently in
different browsers.

 

The page is real close to what I want, but when the display's width is
reduced in IE(v6) the area around the table

 

creates a large gap. This does not happen in NS(v8).

 

 

 

A lesser question is: Is there any way to get some similar to work in NS
4.7?
