That and the footer won't fill the container.
I had it all working great until I realized that it wasn't IE compatible so I went around repairing that problem and opened the door to several more...
I appreciate any help/advice anyone can provide.
Thanks.

Surveillance Ops

<div class="description">
<p>
Most people, when they think of surveillance and private investigators, think only of the typical "domestic" case involving suspicions of a "cheating" spouse.<br /><br />
However, surveillance can be an effective means of gathering information and proving allegations in many other types of cases. A well-executed and thoroughly planned surveillance often yields beneficial results to our clients while preserving the integrity of the investigation.<br /><br />
Investigators at United International Investigations are highly trained and experienced in surveillance techniques. We use a variety of tactics and techniques. In addition, we have the resources and personnel to perform the best surveillance to achieve the best results at a cost-effective price.

NEED HELP IN YOUR DOMESTIC AFFAIRS? Have you just met Mr. or Ms. Right? Shouldn't you find out if this new presence in your life is really the person he or she claims to be before making a serious financial or life-long commitment? Wouldn't you feel safer knowing the background on the nanny you want to hire to care for your precious child? Can you trust the workers at the daycare center where you drop off your child each morning? Are you trying to locate your real father or mother, searching for a lost relative or needing to get back in touch with an old friend who has vanished? Has that wandering deadbeat dad disappeared on you to avoid paying child support to his son or daughter? Has your tenant just skipped out owing seven months rent? Do you need to locate assets to collect on a judgment the court has awarded you? Are you suspicious that your husband, wife or lover may be cheating on you?

If you want to SEE the problem, you can find it at it's temporary location: www.mrmcdaniel.com/temp/index.html
In your HTML, you have marked your left column with an ID...
<div id="left">
<div class="left">
And you've done a similar thing with your
<div id="footer">- which has been defined as a class (.footer) in your CSS, although I suspect you will want to change your CSS to
#footer- to keep it an ID?
You may also want to add the rule:
clear:both;to your #footer style in order to be sure that both columns are cleared.
I looked over that .html file for ...I don't even know how long looking for tags that didn't get closed and things of that nature and didn't even notice that.
Thank you SO MUCH.
