First of all I would ike to say thank you to DynamicDrive, thankyou! What an incredible resource it is for everyone involved. :)

I'm building a site for my brother and I decided to do the homepage in CSS.
I used one of the 3 column templates here and I have tweaked on it abit using once again information found here :D

Everything is really working well except that apparently with some IE6 browsers the right hand column won't either show up or it will show up under the left hand column.. It appears fine in IE7 and most other browsers. I am hoping there is a fix to my problem.

If any one can see a fix to the problem please let me know, it would be appreciated very much! As my brother is wanting me to just do in standard html but I am determined (for some unknown reason) to make it work with CSS. here is the site: www.joecamelzippo.com

left column, right column, Middle column.

I'm using IE6 currently at work, if you would like for me to check it out, let me know.

EDIT: Actually, I just checked it out and I'm taking a screenshot of it right now. Will post as soon as uploaded.

Not sure if this will work (or if it is valid for that matter), but try the following:

Do what boxxertrumps said above (with the order of the colums), with the exception of the right column being first. (In other words:

right, left, center

Then change in the css for the right column to this:



float: right;


See if that fixes it. Hope this helps.

OK I made the adjustment. So if your still around and would take a look with your ie6 that would be cool. Or anyone using IE6 who might be around.

ok...so it did make it go to the right hand side of the screen, but it did not make it look the same as in FF or IE7 (it appears underneath the middle column to the right). Not sure what to do now, but it is on the right hand side now. I'll take a screenshot of it tomorrow at work if someone else doesn't (I can't right now because I am only VNC-ing into my work computers and it lags bad).

I do appreciate it. It looks as though I'll use tables and alot less CSS for now and when I can figure out how to solve the postioning problem with the CSS template in regards to ie6 I'll put it back up.

Thanks for your help though.
