I can't seem to get a div to take my stylings.
It's a very simple layout right now. I have validated HTML and CSS still the div won't appear.
I have given it a bright red background to try to find it. Nothing.

#rightcolumn { color:
It is there, it's just underneath the floated content. You just need to add a left margin to shift it to where it needs to be.
#rightcolumn { color: #333333; width: 150px; background-color: #ff0000; position: relative; margin-left: 830px; }

Tried the left margin.
Tried the left margin. Didn't work.
That left me with a question anyway: if I have divs that are relative I expect them to but up next to each other. Why would I need to give it a left margin?
