Correct me if I'm wrong on the xaraya CSS.

And don't you think that setting a margin-left: 200px; is a round about way of positioning something?

Perhaps I'll have to look to absolute positioning using relative units and %'s.

There's still the mixup of the IE box-model though - I saw the box-model hack used in the xaraya css a few times, I hate using hacks!
