   Hi there,
   You need to use a clearing div I think just before the start of the menu DIV. Add this just before the menu DIV: <div class="clear"></div>
   and add this to your css:
   .clear {
   clear:both;
   font-size:1px;
   line-height:1px;
   height:1px;
   }
   I think this may work.
   Here is some reading :) http://www.complexspiral.com/publications/containing-floats/

   Sorry guys but a clearer div does not have any effect on an absolutely positioned menu. A better example of a different two colunm template with all the element, properly positioned, including the footer, and a different color bg in the menu all the way down may be my own Gemini Template now being installed by many WP users. HTH

   Ah didn't notice it was absolute :)
   I would just change everything to float. But thats just me :)

   Gemini is not a la carte.

   Sorry. I thought that I could wrap my site around the Gemini index.php site, as I did with the default index.php.

   Have you seen The Trident Interface ? It is a free to download; three column interface for WP which consists of an adjusted index php plus the accompanying CSS. Might suit you. Its pretty similar.

   Well it should be pretty simple. You have two ways to go - copy and paste the menu content which might disrupt the css or switch the menus in the css. I would just swap them there. Glad it seems to be working out for you. If you get your fancy bits back in it should look fab again. I will keep an eye on it. When you are running remind me to give you a link as a Trident user. Thanks. :)
