Here's an update anyhoo. I can't find a good way to have both: A) change something in one place only B) have middle content appear before floated columns in the document structure Some folks get pretty excited about B, quoting SEO needs and also that it's nice for screen readers not to have to read the sidebars first etc. However, I haven't seen anything that allows us to have the main content area resize itself gracefully while only changing the width of the parent page container. That is possible if the sidebars are first though because then one can use the floated-columns margined-middle technique without lots of jiggery pokery. I dunno which compromise seems best for coder use. The best method for that that I've seen using the jiggery pokery is that used by the Drupal Zen theme, ( technique called "body politic" which I believe comes originally from the positioniseverything site). This works great, but the way you size your columns and middle content is quite confusing to a new user and requires a bunch of interlocking arithmetic on widths between the sidebars and the page and the main content.
