Ben's menu has absolute positioning as well.
..menu{ position : absolute;
top : 5em;
left : 5px;
width : 10em;
z-index : 1;
padding : 0em; }
...etc.
If you intend to do some trickery to prevent the menu from scrolling
(e.g. on screen all the time regardless of where in the content you are
reading), that doesn't work in IE. It may also prevent visitors with
short windows (in height) from seeing the bottom of the menu.
I guess you've looked at the rest of his templates, too?
The standard two-column, with menu on left:

Notice that there are two style sheets, one for common styles, and the
other for the column layouts. You could have multiple pages with
differing numbers of columns just by switching the one line linking to a
style sheet.
