More than one problem with the box.

Hey folks,

This is the first time I tried to do my own somewhat more complex css
layout totally from scratch, no canned dw css here.  The way it looks in
FF 1.0 in win2k is (almost) the way it's supposed to look.  Opera 7.11
floats the nav bar up a few pixels and shows the light blue
background underneath, not good, but at least it's somewhat close.  Mozilla
1.7.3 shows basically the same thing FF does (yay!)  Then there's IE6 -- AAARRRGGGHHH!!!!

It amazes me that something that looks so awful in half my browsers
validates at w3 for both xhtml and css.  Yes, I wanna hear from you
mac folk and anyone with IE5 (but I'm also dreading it, if ya know what I mean)

The only other thing I'd like to change is if I could center the nav
buttons across the bottom that would be nice, and if there's a way to
add a rollover image without the jscript-- I found out why you don't
use hover colors under images, it just doesn't seem to be only where I
want it to be.  I did attempt centering
using div align="center" with no floats, but that would have been too easy, wouldn't
it?  I tried adding a left margin to the furthest left float, and that
definitely moved things around in a very undesirable way, and I know
my math skills aren't THAT bad! (um, could it be that 3 pixel thing
going on???)  Then I tried one of the listomatic list layouts and laughed so hard I almost w-
um, never mind.  If you want to laugh that hard, you can peek here:

I put a hover color on the links so you can see just how magnificently I
managed to screw it up.

Any and all comments, suggestions and wet noodle beatings gratefully
accepted.
