You can float the UL to the right, but you'd have to put it above the
other content of that div. So:
<div id="page">
<div id="pagetop">
<ul class="sectionlist">
<li>Main</li>
<li>About</li>
<li>Blog</li>
<li>Research</li>
<li>Photo</li>
<li>Code</li>
</ul>
Page header
</div>
with
.sectionlist
{
float: right;
display: inline;
list-style: none;
}
HTH,
