[css-d] VERTICALLY elastic layout--possible? How?

2008-10-06 Thread Scott Glasgow
Here's the original page http://www.jameswmikesellphd.com/index-1.html. It's not terrible in IE6, at least at default size, but quickly breaks when text size is increased. It's worse in FF3, even at default, and breaks worse when scaled. The guy wants to keep the design and basic fixed-width
