martin I believe you mean To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism to steal from many is research :-) In practical terms this means don't just copy sitepoints (or anyone else's) code directly because this is neither ethical or legal and you wont learn how to do it properly Instead find other sites that achieve the same effect, compare and contrast, and cobble together the ideal solution for your needs -- Neerav Bhatt http://www.bhatt.id.au Need a Sydney based web standards contractor?

Re: [WSG] liquid 2-3 column layout
One way you might be able to do this would be to use a little php giving the Content and News changable ID names and then you could control the rest by options in your css. Along the same lines that the central content is displayed or not on this page http://magickdream.com/froglace/ Parker http://webdesign.parkertorrence.com On 5/3/05, Focas, Grant [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I'd like to make a site with the option of 2 or 3 columns.
