Why do you need to specify the width for the DIVs insidte 'recent_wrapper'? Block elements default to filling their containing block, since you already set the 'recent_wrapper' width, its children will be the same width as the parent by default, you don't need to do anything else. Just taking out the widths for recent_nav and recent_mast makes it behave properly (at least for me), both as a separate page and when included.

Unless I'm still not getting what you are trying to do, in which case - sorry, just being slow.
I could kiss you franzelneekburm.
Thank you for the help!

Okay, I have one new question.
The recent architecture and recent handwork columns in this page. There created by just taking two <ul>'s and assigning the css property:
Code:
.recent_nav h2,
.recent_nav ul		{
						margin-top: 12px;
						padding: 0;
						float: left;
						}
The only problem is, I have no idea why this works, or how to modify it. It was swipped from a relative on the basis of "Hmm, that's a good nav technique. Lets see if I can peel it appart to learn how he pulled it off", which is what I'm obviously doing. (And yes, I will be changing the colors and more to it. I'm not any more down than the next person with blatant copyright use, even among family.)
I pulled out the padding like you suggested above, but that causes them to no longer appear as two columns.
I want the lists to appear as two columns, I just want to adjust the spacing of the lists and not let the two list titles over-run the lists anymore.
Also, How on earth can I make sure that as these lists grow, the height of recent_nav increases to accomodate the text instead of the text overlapping between recent_nav and recent_wrapper?
