Hi Everyone, I am working on a site with a fixed sidebar panel and fluid content. After some research I think I have discovered a CSS source order limitation particular to this layout. Can anyone confirm whether this sounds correct:
- To put my content first in the markup, my content needs to be floated (for a following sidebar) - My content is fluid, so I can not assign a width - According http://css.maxdesign.com.au/floatutorial/introduction.htm you must set an explicit width on a floated elemented except img tags as per the W3C (he references http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/visuren.html#floats, but I can not find exact statement). - Therefore my fluid content can not appear with in my markup, my fixed width sidebar must appear first and be floated instead. Does that sound right? Regardless of W3C I could not get my content to remain fluid, come first in the markup and still allow my fixed-width sidebar to float up beside it. Thanks for any feedback.
