problems with IE and firefox Options

[chippa]

when viewed in differnt platforms i get different results with this code.

in firefox the left nav bar goes down the page...too far actually, im not sure why this happens. in IE it only goes as fra as the nav bar itrself. i want it to actually grow and shrink as the mainpage grows and shrinks.

any suggestions?

I recommend that you start by fixing the HTML errors and the CSS errors reported by the online tools. Some of them indicate serious structural problems with your markup.
