RE: IE 100% plus problem.

I reworked your positioning.  Part of the situation is your
absolute positioning which takes items out of document flow
and can thus allow for overlaps.

Sandra

Well ... I think I was doing that on purpose.  I originally
had a float solution similar to what you provided, but it
failed when I had wide content that would not fit next to
the navigation.  In these scenarios, the content would drop
below the navigation, as I understand it should with a
float.  But in my layout this is undesirable.  

I wanted the content to remain next to the navigation and
just stretch the display horizontally.  By using the
positioning and removing the navigation from the normal flow
this was achieved, but if there is a better way to do this,
I am all ears - or eyes as the case may be.

If you are going to do a liquid layout, you can't mix pixels
and
percentages.  You can do a nav of 20% and a content of 80%
which will
continue to work in various screen sizes.
