    If your not worried about web standards you can use a ie6 hack. But most people run into problems with ie6 and ie7 is because they need to designate a width to a div. Anyway if your not worried about standards use the _ trick. Here is an example.

    ie sees the _margin and ignores the correct way of doing it. Where Firefox reads the correct way of doing it and ignores the incorrect way of doing it which is the margin with the underscore.

    #divnamehere {margin:10px; _margin:20px;}

    I do not recommend doing it this way since it is bad, but if your not worried about dealing with web standards and just worried about getting your blog up and running then try this method. But I would first play around with the widths and see what that does for you.

    Good luck and hope you get this problem sorted out.

    Use a separate stylesheet that only IE6 can read to correct the issue.

    Google "conditional comments" for tutorials on how to do this. It's a widely-used technique to fix stuff like this.
