While the others have given you accurate information about how AP works, I should suggest that for laying out major elements of the page you stick to floats and margins. They are easier to work with and easier to understand, although there are some snags, especially with IE and you have to learn how to make a floated element enclose it's children, which it won't by default. AP is great for positioning elements for special effect, but using it to lay out major divisions on your page is pretty complicated and with floats and margins your browser and it's normal flow will do much of the work for you. -- Ed Seedhouse ______________________________________________________________________ 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/
