I use a table for only one type of positioning, because I have never found any CSS code with the required functionality -- and I scoured the usual sites (meyerweb, etc) as well as trying from scratch. The requirements: Variable-width left column, fixed width right column, and the content of the left column MUST precede the content of the right column for text browsers. All the CSS out there is for fixed left column, and the only way I could get CSS to work was to have the right column content precede the left, but that is not acceptable. So I use a 2-column table. If anyone wants to spend time trying to get CSS to do that, be my guest. :-) I'm not saying it's impossible, but it sure felt like it. -W --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BBEdit Talk" group.
