While waiting for Bergamot (he's asleep at the moment, don't
bother him) why not first look at

<http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.moun
taindog.com%2Fstuff%2Ftest.html>

and then

<http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?profile=css2&warning
=2&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mountaindog.com%2Fstuff%2Ftest.html>

and get it right so he is in a good mood when he awakens?

Also in the meantime, get rid completely of your

.testtext {
width: 98%;

and it should behave better in IE.
