At last a solution, thank you guys. Things got a little confused...
inside the skin I made was initially also a div called #Footer, witch
also had a "clear:both" in the markup. That's the one I already
removed but there was indeed another #footer in the shared CSS outside
my own skin.

I did install Firebug this afternoon, I'm trying to figure out how it
works exactly.

I still am facing one problem; the div #GlobalWrapper contains the
#Menu and #MainContent. The background colour (#C5E4F3) is defined in
#GlobalWrapper. How come #GlobalWrapper doesn't include the content
inside the menu? I presume it is because of the "float: left" in
#Menu, but how can I fix this so #GlobalWrapper also encloses the text
inside #Menu? (So that it seems that the menu inside "#Menu" and the
content inside "#MainContent" seem to be in one block?)

Does anyone have clue how to fix the "#GlobalWrapper"-problem?

Perhaps, if you would care to explain your "problem".

Looks fine to me.

When I browse to a page with little or no content ( like the current
main page http://en.full-ops.be/Main_Page ) I get this result:
http://www.full-ops.be/01.jpg. I would like it to be: http://www.full-ops.be/02.jpg

The problem occurs with both IE and Firefox (Win XP, IE 7.0, FF
2.0.0).

Of course, because they actually follow the rules, I bet what you want
is what IE6 does... It's the ol' "my float is not contained by its
container" problem. Page is major DIViditis but a little Googling will :

#GlobalWrapper {
overflow:hidden;
height:1%; /* any height needed for IE */
background-color: #C5E4F3;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
}
