Here's what I'm looking to do: fixed left column and a right column
that fills the remainder of the space. I need the ability to position
other elements relative to the borders of the right column. Without
nesting containers, here's the best cross-browser version I could come
up with:

I see what's wrong - the right column is getting offset by the left
column which pushes the viewport out 200px to the right. But I
couldn't figure out a way to get the widths to work and for my square
box to position relative to the edges of the right container.
I eventually settled on this, which works and uses nested DIVs:

So, mostly for my own learning, I'd like to know how to implement this
layout without the nested DIV design.
Thanks,
