Faux columns are ideal for fixed width layouts, such as 760 px. They are very hard to use on fluid width layouts, unless the layout has "max-width" implemented. If you are not used to working with fluid layouts in CSS, learn the method first with a fixed layout and then we can talk about the creative solutions for dealing with percentages. For faux columns you can just have an image that is one pixel high and as wide as your container. It's very important to remember to make sure that your text is still legible without the background image(s), so make sure you have good background color fallback for your columns. Then set the image as the background with repeat-y and you should be done. -- -- C Montoya rdpdesign.com ... liquid.rdpdesign.com ... montoya.rdpdesign.com ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
