-------------------------------------

Thanks for your quick reply.

Regarding the CSS layouts:
I tested the latest trunk (2.1-dev) of Jetspeed on both Netscape 7.2 and 
Firefox 1.0.7 and all columns are glued to the left. This is independent of the 
screen resolution. IE6 has no problems. I'll include a screenshot of both 
browsers.

After writing the new table based layout, there were no problems with 
Mozilla/Firefox any more. It could e.g. handle two columns with 50% and 49.99% 
width.
Strangely, IE (6.0.2900.2180.xp_sp2_gdr) had problems with the second column of 
49.99% width. The result was a very narrow column. Specifying both columns with 
50% worked correctly. Hence the ugly workaround. This odd behaviour does IE 
only have with table widths, not with css widths....

> The current css based layouts are broken on Mozilla/Firefox. Columns are 
> glued to the left instead of being arranged side by side. Imho css layouts 
> are generally still very buggy.
> I switched back (again) to table based layouts and noticed some side effects 
> regarding font sizes in IE and some problems with the customizer. I believe 
> some of the recent changes (esp. with the 2.0 final release) to the portal 
> layout have not been adapted to the tcolumns/layout.vm.
> So I wrote a new table based layout.vm and used the actual css based 
> layout.vm as a master. I just inserted two or three tables and removed the 
> css width attributes.
> This now works as expected and exactly looks like the css based layout.
> I'd like to see the attached patch to be applied. Please read a comment in 
> the patch about a workaround to handle .99% widths.
> Regards, Thorsten
