I need to see how you're actually implementing the code (which template and how). My first impression would be to use "float:left;" but that may not work if you're wrapping the <div> tags with a <td> tag. If it's the other way around then the left nav will act independently from the rest of the forum; probably what you're trying to achieve.

*The use of "position:relative;" is within the container of the entire site unless you isolate it to its own container.
