Hey, that's almost exactly how I work!! Nice info, Russ - thanks.

I normally put a red border around the current <divs> I am working on, so I
know exactly what is happening. Coloured <divs> are better though, as then
you don't have to worry about box model problems when you add/remove the red
borders.

I've also found that the different combinations of browsers tend to render a
bit more uniformly if I use an XHTML Strict doctype, as compared to an XHTML
Transitional doctype or quirks mode.

Subject: [WSG] Colored boxes - one method of building full CSS layouts


How do you go about building a full CSS layout? Is there an overall method
that can be used for any layout?

Colored boxes - one method of building full CSS layouts:
http://www.maxdesign.com.au/presentation/process/index.cfm

This article explains one method of building a full CSS layout from start to
finish. The method, based on positioning colored boxes and testing across a
range of browsers, can be used to build a wide range of full-CSS layouts.
