I'm having various problems with floats, and wondered if anyone could point me to some good resources to read up on them. Specifically, i've tried a few times to float two elements to give me two "columns" but the way Firefox and IE6 seem to judge widths, in percentage terms, always seems completely different. As a result, I struggle to get this two column effect without gaps....

VirtualLee offered a good tutorial. I'll offer a couple more. Since we all have different ways of learning, one of these is bound to help.

When you mention width differences between IE and FF, could it be your !doctype statement? An invalid !doctype will cause IE to make different width calculations.
