I have a div floated left for a navbar, with another div in the normal
flow for content, like so:
#leftnav { float: left; width: 120px; }
#content { margin-left: 170px; margin-right: 10px;}
What I'd like is for my left nav to always stay in a fixed size and
position, and my content to size dynamically to fit the window. This
mostly works for that, except that if the content contains a table
wider than the content div, the table gets pushed down below the
navbar.
Can I prevent this in any way?
(I'm pretty sure I need to float the navbar; I considered absolute
positioning, but I need a left-aligned footer, and the navbar can be
the longest element on a page.)
