List, This may be old news, but I have not done a layout like this before. I need a 3 col layout, with only one (largest, content area) column being of flexible width. I have a start, with 2 fixed-width cols absolutely positioned, and the 3rd w/o a declared width margined over next to the other 2.
I have a sinking feeling that this approach is asking for trouble. Can anyone suggest an alternative? I have googled, but I think I'm just not using the right search criteria... Initial code: <style type="text/css" media="all"> *{margin: 0; padding: 0;} body{font: .9em/1.3 Constantina,Georgia,'Nimbus Roman No9 L',serif;} #wrap{position: relative; min-width: 940px; padding-right: 10px;} #nav{position: absolute; width: 150px; left: 0; top: 0; background-color: #ddd;} #listing{position: absolute; width: 250px; left: 150px; top: 0; background-color: #eee;} #mainContent{position: relative; margin-left: 400px; background-color: #fff;} </style> <div id="wrap"> <div id="nav"> </div> <div id="listing"> </div> <div id="mainContent"> </div> </div> Thanks a lot. -- Tom Livingston | Senior Interactive Developer | Media Logic | ph: 518.456.3015x231 | fx: 518.456.4279 | mlinc.com ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] 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/
