As it says in the subject, a two column layout (plus header and footer
boxes). I feel the left column really needs to be fixed width (151px) as it
contains an image, while everything else is fluid. However this only works
in IE 6.0. In Netscape and Opera I found that the auto width of the right
column is 100% so it jumps down below the menu if the left column is fixed -
not what I want at all. Currently I'm using a JavaScript browser sniffer*
with all fluid widths as a current best solution for Netscape.
Can anyone suggest how I can do a fixed width left column for
Netscape/Opera? Or any alternative layout suggestions?
*Which doesn't work in Opera because Opera registers as 'Microsoft Internet
Explorer'! Huh!!?

lots of markup errors. Fix those before working on the stylesheet(s).

Terrible idea. Broswer sniffers are unreliable.

This is just one of the reasons.

Maybe it's me, but in your stylesheet I don't see this fixed with:
<quote>
..boxLeft {
float: left;
color: #39C;
background: transparent;
font-weight: bold;
margin: 0 1% 0 1%;
padding: 0;
}
</quote>
In IE6, 1024x768px all the items you mentioned (topbox, bottom box,
leftbox en content box) are 100% wide at this moment.
I use 'columns' to position menu and content fluidly side by side
myself. To achieve this I positioned the menu column _absolute_. Not
using floats helped me a lot in being able to put columns side by side.
Combining a fixed width, absolutely positioned menu box with a 'free'
content (no div necessary) within margins set for the body works fine
for me.

Nonsense, Opera identifies itself as Opera no matter what the ID setting
is, your script is simply to dumb. Note that browser sniffing is a
fundamentally flawed concept in the first place.

OK... After a previous post, I've decided that the site layout will be
two columns
The layout will be:
1) Page 100% wide
2) Right column will be fixed 150px, left column will use the rest of
the space

I've been struggling to achieve the following layout for some time now
and I'm not getting anywhere. I've tried several approaches including
floats & absolute positioning and none seem to work, primarily due to
the footer not being aware of the columns due to me floating /
positioning them.
I have the following (very simple) markup:
<div id="head">...</div>
<div id="left">...</div>

I'm setting the column with for a gridview (25+- columns) and have
paging turned on.
When the gridview is first displayed, the column widths are all set to
the default. But after paging to another page, the widths are set as
they should be.
Going back to page one, the widths are still correct.
Not a clue what's going on here!

Hello,
this might sound stupid, but I got a really nice homepage template
which unfortunately is a 3-Column Fixed Width CSS format. Now I don't
have any content for the right column and would like the middle column
just to use up that space instead.
Any way this is possible?
Thanks for your help, it is highly appreciated!

I am trying to create a layout that has three main columns. The
