Attn: Capel Street Players
I've no idea which game it was supposed to be tomorrow night, but I'm not going to make it - I've been late in work every day this week, and probably will be for those remaining.

Impossible? CSS Geekery
I have a feeling that this is in fact impossible, but here goes.
If I have two divs - columns, in effect - sitting side by side within a containing div, is there any way to get an element within the div-with-shorter-content to float to the bottom? The left-hand div is a reliable amount of content; the right could be shorter or longer than it. Each one contains, among other things, a button that has to drop to the bottom of the containing div.
Dammit, it's even hard to explain.

Relief
There is no feeling of relief to match that of finally finding a solution for a problem that seemed insoluble, as a deadline looms.
Huzzah for the power of CSS!
(Defeating IE's 15px scrollbar bug with overflow-x: hidden; )
(I cheated and used a table for the previous question. It works, and it's less code than any proposed munging of divs. If any CSS purists want to come solve it for me, bring it on.)
