I recently launched an overhaul of the interface of www.education.gov.au. Its been a bit of a battle trying to get the client to sacrifice things for the sake of accessibility and standards-compliance, not to mention the state of the legacy content and CMS templates, battles still raging.... aaaaanyway , those things aside...
There is a problem with the 3-column layout I've implemented. In IE at resolutions around 800x600 and below the centre column is dropping below the left and right floated columns. I know its to do with the animated GIF logo at the top of the centre column and have already made a fix (not in production yet) so the problem doesn't occur at 800x600. What I'm looking for is suggestions of better columnar layout in which rather than the centre column dropping down, columns stay where they should and the browser's horizontal scrollbar appears instead.
