OK, but when testing this "flubber" layout in IE, I see that it's fixed. Your solution would be to give IE a fixed width layout? How does that make sense? I would much rather use a jittery scripting solution to ensure accessibility to IE users, who I know won't be resizing their browser windows, than give them a fixed layout at 1024 px or even 800 px when I know that those users are most likely the ones who would benefit from a 640 px layout. btw, thanks for the heads up on liquid.rdpdesign.com, I'll fix that eventually. Now here's another example for you all: http://pro.html.it/esempio/proglayout/2col.html Assume this was only given to IE. No jitters. Just a smooth snap.
