you most likely aren’t using IE but the icons cause an overlap with your right column in IE, IE’s routines are all jacked up.

i played around with the borders a little bit and i think i’m close to fixing it.
problem is, the page renders fine in all other browsers. IE for windows just isn’t standards-compliant (but everyone uses it, so i’m SOL).

well what you need to do is instead of using percentages for the colums find a happy fixed width… IE for fruitypants I’m using 500px for the article area. I’m using a combination of CSS floats and tables to achieve the basic layout…. the problem with IE is that say with CSS it isn’t very standard compliant so it renders things funny like if you have a 500px width x 50px height box with 2px border on all sides and 10px padding inside you actually have a box of 524px width and 74px height. IE treats things as you would think they where basically a 480×30 area inside of the initialy 500×50 box. However, with the rest of the browseres that are css compliant you get the overlaps. That is actually what the css standard says….
Example:
http://www.fruitypants.com/mt-static/icon/junk.html it plays nice in mozilla and ie unlike the main page currently
