CMS Made Simple Forums

Below my template and stylesheet for CSS-menu top + 2 columns. The sidebar wont float in IE (Ok in Firefox), it goes to the right, but gets surroundeed by the text of the main-div, see http://www.delindezutphen.nl/cmsmadesimple/. The very very very strange thing is, that when I copy the template, stylesheet and menu in the tryout on CMSMS on http://www.opensourcecms.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=452 .... everything works. Aaarhg.

.... found it. The search-box didn't have enough space, due to a label in Dutch. That screwed everything up....
