This has been driving me bonkers.

I need to remove the

<div class='cleaner'>&nbsp;</div>

but I can't for the life of me find it. I've been digging through the default_tpls, but I can't find anything.

Why do you need to remove that?  It's what makes the columns work.  If you remove it the columns won't float.

It's includes/members_list.php.

Actually, I think it's causing the issues with my columns and forcing the page links down to the very, very, very bottom of the container. When I pulled it from the user page it fixed that issue there.

If you make the containing div of the columns position relative, it should fix it.

I'm pretty sure it is (it's the #middleindex) but I'll go in and play around some more with the css.

Edit:


#middleindex {
position:relative;
margin-left: 275px;
text-align: left;
}

Is there something wrong with my syntax?

Edit 2:
Hmmm... it is a float issue apparently, but if I float the middleindex div it ends up floating below the rest of the page (but at least the page links are in the right place). *scratches head* I guess this definitely needs some more investigating on my part.

Edit 3:
Gave up and did exactly what you said not to do and removed the cleaner div. It did mess things up but I cheated and put in an empty paragraph tag and it spaced things out enough.

It's probably the login form.  IE in another one of it's mind bogglingly stupid bugs treats all forms as width 100% no matter how wide it actually is or whether or not it's contained in a floated element when it comes to clearing other floats.  Float that or make it position: relative.  I've had that issue before with another site.
