Site having MAJOR rendering issues in IE6

I've been working on a website for my school's FIRST Robotics team, and work has been coming quite nicely, but I have encountered a major roadblock, it is rendering absolutely horribly in IE6. It looks okay in IE7, but looks the way I want it to in Firefox. The link to it is http://www.theunforgivenones.net/robotics/dev_site/

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated, I have already searched google and have tried different 'fixes' out there.

    Thanks, I do appreciate the reply. The thing is, in early stages of development of the layout, it rendered fine in IE6. I wish I had followed its progress in IE6 all along, but I had upgraded my desktop to IE7. I don't think the problem is in the HTML, but probably in the CSS. Both do validate though (the CSS has a couple color warnings, that's about it). I will look around for different layouts, though.

    I'll admit it. I haven't had a chance to look over your HTML and CSS yet, but it is apparent that you are attempting a very tricky thing here--namely a fluid three-column layout that renders well in 3 substantially different browsers. (Yes, IE6 and IE7 are substantially different.)

    You might find some inspiration in the working examples of "Jello-Piefecta" found on http://positioniseverything.net. Holly and John have done a pretty good job of explaining the details, but be forewarned--these layouts are not for the faint-of-heart.
