It's possible to achieve ONLY if the header has a fixed width (not fluid as
showed in my approach).

I see you put my desired source order, thanks! The only issue is the spacing
between the header parts needs to be equal (this is the most important
requirement).

Hi Scott,
As Gunlaug and Tim pointed out there are some issues for a solid solution
for the problem.
But, just for studies purposes have a look at a test case hosted at:
http://www.maujor.com/temp/css-d/fluid-header.html
May be you can find a more consistent solution.

Hi Gunlaug, thank you for your quick response. Sounds like I'm best off
using a table for my layout as painful as that sounds after reading 3 books
properly explaining how wrong doing so is...

The difficult part is that I want these columns to NOT wrap as much as

I know there's a display: table declaration, but I understand no IE
browsers pay attention to it... maybe there's an IE hack for this?
IE8 has proper support for CSS table, and older IE versions can be
"tricked"...

However, problems arise when one wants source-ordering, table behavior
and "old IE trickery" all at once in a self-adjusting layout. Neither
HTML table nor CSS table permits real source-ordering, so you'll
probably end up with a complex solution to a small problem. I don't
think it's worth it for anything but "proof of concept" cases.
In real life I would forget source-ordering, and use a regular HTML
table for a case like yours, to achieve optimal fluidity without
premature wrapping, while avoiding problems with older IE versions' lack
of CSS table support.
You also have to take into account that text can/will be resized, which
in itself will complicate things enough if your case is supposed to work
across browser-land and various end-user options.

Georg
