Looking at the layout here, I want to constrain the entire page's min width to say, 600px. I've tried setting the content's min-width, however the right hand side overlaps it.
Can someone recommend a way to correct this, or another layout that satisfies this requirement?
The other thing to remember in this is the order the content appears in the code - 1) 2) 3), and as is shown on the page. Either one of the columns should be able to move the footer down, and I would like two more areas defined: What is currently the header to appear as 4) in the code, and 5) to be a small content bar above 4)
So in short the page content areas would appear like this on the page (ordered from top to bottom, starting at 1) in the code):
7) top menu
5) header
4) contentbar
2) 1) 3)
6) (footer)
Thanks.
Update
With a bit of assistance, from Midas, I've managed to almost get what I'm looking for. The problem below is that the right-hand column does not move the footer down, nor does it lock into place at the min-width, when the browser width is reduced. Also, I still can't push everything down for the top menu bar, as it is just overlapping the header:

Since this is not a pay-for-code site, I am not going to code that whole thing for you.
This might be a stupid question, but does this not work for you?
body {
min-width: 600px;
}
Here is your reviewed layout. The ordering is like you wanted it, I had to use position:absolute
for the header and 'content bar'.

This Example can be set at a constant width:600px
in either the <body>
tag or around the outer-most <div>
tag(s).
