There are a variety of issues in IE with these types of layouts. Most of
them can be fixed using a couple of rules. The first thing that I would
be checking is putting a display:inline declaration on all floated
columns. www.positioniseverything.net is one of the best sources of
information on IE specific bugs, although I notice now that alot of
their articles require a subscription.

Is there someone who can tell me why the widths are not the same in

It appears that in IE the second column gets pushed of the screen due to the
left column being bigger.
Kay, sorry but this looks like a major problem to me in IE.

Hi Taco,
Here's what I would recommend in future - forget the
graphics. Start by working out what layout model you're going
to use. Maybe find an example to start with.
Next, put your basic boxes in - again, don't worry about the
graphics, just colour each div with a background colour so
you can see which is which. Simple stuff - masthead, body,
footer. Test it cross browser until you have it working the
way you want. Then add the next layer of complexity, checking
in each browser as you go, and adding graphics last.
To be honest, the problems you're having in IE on this site
don't look too serious - it looks like the widths aren't
quite right. Try making the right hand column div narrower -
different browsers tend to calculate widths slightly differently.
If you don't test in each browser as you go, you won't know
which elements are working and what's causing the problems.
