Folks - you've helped out before, and I'm asking again. Pardon if this
sounds all too simple, but I've yet to find a solution either in this
list's archives, or on the web.

I'm trying to create a fluid layout with two columns, but whilst the
left column is variable width, the right column (sidebar) is to be a
fixed width (190px). This is entirely because the right column
contains an image in every instance. But I want the left column to
take up the remainder of the space (viewport width - 190px).

Everything that I've seen or reviewed works fine if I wish to break
the columns by percentage, or pixel widths on both. And min-width
doesn't seem to work for IE.

Having divved up some non-table examples using the usual suspects, my
efforts result in my finding that when making the viewport window very
small (or when enlarging the text to huge sizes), the left column
slides under the righthand column.

 


Have you checked something like...
div#right {float:right; width:190px}
div#left {margin-right:190px}
?

Woops, missed this:
If Mambo can be configured easy, as some claim, why has there not been a ton
of templates available long ago??? On different CMS type forums I see
problems mambo related all the time...

Nuff said ;-)

Subject: [WSG] Mambo  Accessibility


Hi Guys,

I have been asked to work on a web site and Mambo is the current CMS
being used. They want to, if possible, keep Mambo as they're CMS but
upon inspecting it I am surrounded by tables and poor markup. It does
not even seem possible (Without hacking the source) to add ALT text to
some images!

Is there a way to make Mambo compatible (A large reason for the work
is to allow blind users to get value from the site) with accessiblily
and hopefully web standards?

Is there another CMS that you would mention which may suit my needs?

Regards,

Lloyd
