Can I also add a side-note about fluid layouts using negative margins (A List Apart). [nielsene brought this to my attention a while back ;)].

It's about the best way you can write a layout in XHTML with a fixed side bar and elastic body and the best bit.... XHTML source code flows the way the page content does so it's perfect (almost) for screen readers. If you want the most in terms of accessibility then check out this article: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/negativemargins :)
