/* Tips for mainContent:
1. the space between the mainContent and r_sidebar is created with the right margin on the mainContent div.  No matter how much content the r_sidebar div contains, the column space will remain. You can remove this right margin if you want the #mainContent div's text to fill the #r_sidebar space when the content in #r_sidebar ends.
2. to avoid float drop at a supported minimum 800 x 600 resolution, elements within the mainContent div should be 430px or smaller (this includes images).
3. in the Internet Explorer Conditional Comment below, the zoom property is used to give the mainContent "hasLayout." This avoids several IE-specific bugs.
