CSS Layout issue

[Lan]

Okay everyone, this is my first time trying my layout using CSS positioning. The page I'm working on is really starting to bug me. I use Firefox as my primary browser. Well upon trying to reach the perfect placement in Firefox I found that my content placement was low compared to the nav column on the left. So I found a way to even it up a little bit so that it looked good.

Well upon opening it in IE, it turns out that now it appears high because of the compensation I did for Firefox. I'm almost ready to just forget using css for placement, it is just becoming to much of a hassle for me to get it the way that I want. PLEASE HELP!.............Lan

First, you must remove the xml prologue, the first line. This will throw IE into quirk's mode. Second, your div.left_nav has a border while the content div does not. Either do the same border for both or use margins instead.
