Yawn :-P . I have a pretty good idea how to tackle this type of layout (fixed-width, all floated left, account for IE broken box model), Sounds pretty complicated to me :-) . but I would love to see some simple/solid examples before I completely re-invent the wheel. Source order content. Min/max width-- feeding ie 'expressions.' No other hacks. Can't vouch for simple/solid/bulletproof. Or anything to write home about. http://www.dlaakso.com/four-col/4c.html Links, suggestions, thoughts, RTFM's... all appreciated. :) TIA!

Good point... if I understand what your saying that is..., how do you mean mousetype? Mousetype might be considered slang for primary content specified at less than default. This page is an example: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/dao/ The article on that page, is a *wonderful and worthwhile read*-- the author of the article did /not/ set the moustype. These, of course, are /my personal opinions/. ~dL __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

The article on that page, is a *wonderful and worthwhile read*-- the author of the article did /not/ set the moustype. As I was about to comment on how the text can just be scaled up to suit, I scaled it up myself in Mac Flock (FF) and was amazed to see that when the nav, for starters, gets scaled out of view of my browser window, I do _not_ get a horiz scroll bar! If i widen my browser window, the overflow is there, but I can't _scroll_ to see it.
