Ok. I added a min-width to the #content which seems to stop the page breaking up under 1000px. I also used the _javascript_ fix for IE but... now then it seemed that IE dropped apart at widths OVER 1200px! So.. I added 'position:relative' to the #content - seems to always fix most IE probs! - but

http://www.janelehrer.co.uk/live5/ In IE, when the window is shrunk, the content block drops underneath the logo image (ugly). Why does that happen when, in FF, it stays in position and compresses nicely? Also, in IE, there are gaps between the border images. Again, in FF, a nice smooth line.
