Me again...CSS again...sigh :)
 

CSS is starting to seem like a road I shouldn't have begun to walk down.

My first css-ish website is up(ish) although sans content. http://tim.komta.com if anyone's interested.

Had my first glance at it through a Mac...holy hell, it was fucked up. IE5 on the Mac was one of the screwiest things I've ever seen...it took the <p> tags and formed them into columns instead of presenting them horizontally as you'd expect.

Safari did a little better, but it was still a bit fucked. A few things overlapped, etc.

So, my first move will be to bail on the absolute positioned items, best I can. I had been hoping for a table-free setup, but since I want a footer at the bottom even if there's not much on the page, I've already had to resort to a table or two.

Any other advice? Anyone with a different browser care to take a look?

They helped me on my way. I've just completed the framework for a table-less intranet site. Its getting rave reviews, and it was easy to put together. For your design, I suggest thinking about containers within containers, especially for the footer section.

You guys rock. That double tr typo was pretty much it.

Thanks!
