While a competent server-side programmer in any language should be able to do almost anything in terms of layout, I am always cautious when using alistapart's custom corners technique, as it's unfortunately very easy to break. I have used it on several sites - in fact including one I did last weekend - but I would be wary of handing a site over to someone else that used that technique. The main problems I find are that if your content becomes very long or very short, the panels start breaking up, plus resizing browser text size can cause havoc. I've also had some problems with visual "artifacts" appearing in IE6. By the sounds of it, your programmer simply doesn't want to be bothered with a complex layout that's out of their tabular comfort-zone. -- Kay Smoljak http://kay.smoljak.com/ ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
