I need help to tweal my css for IE6

Hi guys,
I very need your help to fix my website for correct display in Internet Explorer 6 browser.
Its displayed nice in all browsers (in IE7 also) but when you open it with IE5 or IE6 my right sidebar goes down under the first sidebar (screenshot is here http://browsershots.org/screenshots/3a6f3ddb5e6d51fb40ef82e422a95d93/). I have played with css, changed width etc but with no luck. Could you please have a while to help me please? My website´s address is http://dimasnet.com Thank you many times!

Re: I need help to tweal my css for IE6

Looks like the prime culprit is IE6 double-margin float bug. In order to remedy this, all you need to do is add display: inline to the layout div’s:

  • .sidebar_left
  • .content
  • .content_single
  • .sidebar_right

That still doesn’t fix it, so I would decrease the right padding on sidebar_right, since this is not needed anyway.

padding: 0 10px 0 20px

I only tested this in IE6 and it did the trick. Best of luck trying to get this to work in IE5, but I might remind you that IE5 currently has a marketshare of 0.1%. It might not be worth it trying to fix this for 1 out of every 1000 visitors.
