FYI - the main box for the layout busts out on each side by 20px in
Internet Explorer 6.0 on Windows XP. You'll need to feed that browser
something 40px thinner as a width on that box.

Typography is the emphasis of this creation, so a review for
readability is desired. Please send along screen captures of any
strange behavior. Concerned with the absolute placement of the
navigation and the generated content.
The 'READ MORE' links do not function as hyperlinks using Win Firefox
2 (and of course they don't show up in Internet Explorer 7). Oh, I
see, they're not actually links; I assumed they were because the mouse
changed to a pointer, but I see that you forced that in your
stylesheet. Why?
When I enlarge the text (which I need to do in order to read the 'READ
MORE' links), it spills out of the white column background. With a
layout this simple, why not make the white column resize with the text?
Also with enlargement, when the text wraps at window width it overlaps
the beginning of the body text. Why do you take the nav menu out of
the flow? This seems to create problems unnecessarily.
In Win Firefox 2 the validation select list seems too short, cutting
off part of the final 'n' of Validation. I can't see where in your
stylesheet you're constraining its width, but maybe some padding-right
would help.
My eye sees a busy page. I would increase the leading before each DT
to let the page breathe.
It's really just a big list, which I don't find interesting; even
while reviewing this template I couldn't make myself actually read
it. I would consider using a more engaging method of communicating
with the reader.
I like your color palette!
Regards,
Paul
