Fixed Position Problems in IE

I spent a few days last week creating a website for the Junee Rhythm 'n Rail Festival and was so proud of the site I couldn't wait to give the organisers a demonstration.

First, the ' entity showed the code and not the apostrophe! Talk about frustrating. The site viewed beautifully when I made it using Firefox, and worked fine when I showed it off at work using Internet Explorer 7. When viewed in older versions of IE, however, the page wouldn't scroll.

The website relies heavily on CSS techniques, and is based on Stu Nicholl's Holy Grill frame emulation model, modified to include even more fixed elements. After searching for some hacks to fix the problem, and downloading an installer for multiple versions of IE, I think I've fixed the site so it plays as it was meant to.

Let me know if it doesn't look right in your browser.
