Stuart,

Initially it looks good, but I have not had time to gather comments as you may need to sort out something else first.

There is a marked difference when rendered between browsers, IE6 displays fine with the news stories placed between the "main menu" and the "site tools - vote".
However with Firefox and Netscape7 the news stories are pushed to the far right, the other side of the "site tools - vote" box, so you dont see the stories just a blank area between the menu - site tools.

Firefox is fast becoming a contender to IE, and it parses pages "correctly", at least a lot better than IE, take this example - most people regard the "Alt" tag in images as a tooltip, it's not, it is supposed to be for text only browsers to render in place of the image. "Title" is the correct tooltip, Firefox displays "Title", IE (incorrectly) displays "Alt".
Cross browser compatability is a REAL pain.

Mike.
