Ok, I've done some experimenting of my own, and of course I have new
questions :)
1. In the 3-column markup, what is the div for the right column nested
inside the div for the left column? Shouldn't they be separate?
2. Also, I see that the left column div has a class and id of "sidebar",
but this is not referenced in any of the style sheets (except the one
for printing). So how is it styled? When I try this layout, I get the
left column text too high, as seen here:
