Unfortunate that Mark's example isn't working due to the widths being 36.2% + 61.8% = 100%, which not all browsers like when rounding %'s to pixels (which you already mention, sorry for repeating that). Too bad, cause the solution is so easy, just give the divs some breathing room - you need gutters anyway. That's one thing I always try to do, especially with floats (IE!): don't fill up every pixel of room you should have in theory. Anyway, good luck with your site Nick! Hi Nick,
