Subject: Re: [jQuery] Layout plug-ins / Creating a Dashboard David, That's what I'm going to do to start. However, I'm wanting to come up with a solution that will arrange the <div> in a smarter arrangement based upon the number of <div>s and the height/width of each. Floating everything left is ok as long as each DIV is a similar width/height, but I'll have some widgets that are considerable larger than others. -Dan >-----Original Message----- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On >Behalf Of David Dexter >Sent: Friday, March 16, 2007 4:35 PM >To: 'jQuery Discussion.' >Subject: Re: [jQuery] Layout plug-ins / Creating a Dashboard > >Dan, > >I did something similar and I just put each app in a div inside a container >div and set the sub div's style attribute to float left. > >i.e. => (I wouldn't use inline styles...
