Hi there,
I am somewhat new to CSS so I hope you will forgive my question if it's a typical newbie question. :) I'm trying to help a friend with her site, you can see my work here. Upon viewing the site in IE6, she showed me a screenshot of the sidebar at the bottom of the page. I have since lost the screenshot and I can't see what is happening in IE7. Is it the sidebar CSS itself or something else causing this behavior in IE6? I used the List-o-Matic to build it and I added it to this stylesheet.
Thank you in advance.

first thing is,
you have to wrap your content area and sidebar area.
what you did is,
<div id="wrapper"><div id="content">....</div></div>
<div id="navigation">....</div>
<div id="extra">..</div>
my suggestion:
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="content">...</div>
<div id="sidebar">
<div id="navigation">...</div>
<div id="extra">...</div>
</div><!-- /#sidebar -->
</div><!-- /#wrapper -->
after that, now you have to fix your css.
ok, now about your problem.
the sidebar going to the bottom because of your the rest of width didn't match with the sidebar width.
the error only on ie6 maybe because of this:
