Nicely laid out page, Georg (assuming you're reading this)! As an old
"table layout" guy (for the time being, at least), when I look at
the source code for pages like yours, though, I find that I'm just
utterly mystified, it's hard for me to make head or tail of how you
did certain things -- but that'll all come in time, I suppose. :/
FWIW: the basic layouts on my private site...

...are just overbuilt and overstyled versions of "negative margins"...

Once you've understood how "negative margins" work, such layouts are
relatively easy to create and work with.
A different approach for achieving pretty much the same look/feel and
cross-media flexibility can be found here...

...and the HTML/CSS is definitely simpler and should be easier to
understand. Haven't tuned it or added full support for older browsers to
it yet though, since it's just a "proof of concept" example.

Georg
