I am starting a new web and am having a problem, The divs are in a container and a content div. But they do not line up right, if I adjust the width so it all fits the container, the navigation goes off the content div.
The footer is under the navigation. I cannot work it out.
Code:
#container {
   width: 750px;
   height: 100%;
   margin: auto;
   background: #000000;
   text-align: left;
}
#header {
   height: 113px;
   width: 750px;
   background-image: url('images/header.gif');
   background-repeat: no-repeat;
   border-bottom: 3px solid #000099;
   margin: 0;
   padding: 0;
}

#content {
width: 750px;
background: #000000; }

#leftcontent {
width: 150px;
float: left; }

#center {
   width: 374px;
   float: right;
   display: inline;
   height: 1%;
   position: relative;   }
   
#rightcontent {
   width: 214px;
   float: right;
   padding: 3px;}
   
.menu{
list-style-type: none;
margin: 2px 0 0 2px;
padding: 0;
width: 150px;
border: 1px solid #9A9A9A;
border-bottom-width: 0;}

.menu li a{
background: white url('images/list1.gif') repeat-x bottom left;
color: white;
display: block;
width: auto;
padding: 3px 0;
padding-left: 10px;
text-decoration: none;}


* html .menu li a{ /*IE only. Actual menu width minus left padding of A element (10px) */
width: 140px;
}

.menu li a:visited, .menu li a:active{
color: white;
}

.menu li a:hover{
background-image: url('images/list2.gif');

}#centercontent {
   width: 750px;
   float: left;
   background: #000000;
   color: #FFFFFF;
   padding: 3px;
   display: inline;
   height: 1%;/* combat IE's 3 pixel jog */}

p {
   font-family: Verdana;
   font-size: 0.88em;
   color: #FFFFFF;
   padding-bottom: 20px;}

}
#footer {
   clear: both;
   height: 40px;
   text-align: center;
   background: #000000;
   font-size: 0.75em;   }
#footer p {
   padding-top: 15px;}
   

and the html
Code:

<body>
<div id="container">
<div id="header"></div>
<div id="content">
<div id="rightcontent">
<h1>'Eyecatching Art'</h1>

</ul></div>
</div>
<div id="centercontent">
<h1>About the Artist</h1>
<p>Hello there, my names Steve and I've built
this site to basically show off some of my artwork. I've always been interested
in creating stuff and find its a great way to switch off. Its great to just get
totally immersed&nbsp;in the creative process.</p>
<p>My work suits many environments, from
pubs, clubs, restaurants and cafes to large public spaces like hospitals or
shopping centres. Imagine a whole shoal of the giant goldfish on a mobile in a
library for instance. Or how about a unique mosaic sculpture in the company
reception area. Equally, for the home, in the garden, the conservatory, maybe a
beautiful mosaic fish in the bathroom? If you see anything on the site which
you're particularly interested in do get in touch. Or alternatively if you have
an idea for a piece you'd like to commission, again please get in touch.</p>
<p><a href="about.htm">Read about my art history</a></p>
</div>
<div id="footer">
<p>ŠEyecatchingArt 2004-2008</p>
</div></div>
</body>
I know I post a lot but I do appreciate any help with this.

Take a look at this layout http://www.pmob.co.uk/temp/3colcentred_2a.htm
It can be modified for what you want.
