I'm trying to create a site with an elastic main column and a static left sidebar, but for content organization, I want the sidebar to be after the main column in the code, ruling out some of the simplest implementations. I implemented the solution found here:
http://css.researchkitchen.de/classpage/explaining-css-positioning.html However, as he says at the bottom of the page, if the absolutely-positioned sidebar is longer than the main content (which will depend on a user's window size along with the amount of stuff in the main column). Does anyone know of a way around this problem? I'm using a "min-height" kludge solution on the main column, but the sidebar will be populated dynamically, so its length will be variable. Plus, IE6 ignores min-height (not the only IE6 problem I have to troubleshoot. My sidebar is screwed up in other ways on IE6). I suspect that this will only occasionally be an actual problem, but for those occasions, it'd be nice to have a solution that. Since the problem is fully explained in the link above, linking to my implementation probably isn't necessary, but it's at http://www.kungfu-silat.com/wp/ , which I've asked a few questions about before here. -- Erik Harris http://www.eHarrisHome.com - AIM: KngFuJoe - Yahoo IM: kungfujoe7 - ICQ: 2610172 - Chinese-Indonesian Martial Arts Club http://www.kungfu-silat.com ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
