Hi all
I'm attempting to create a layout based on this one:
http://www.drugs.gov.uk/error404
After wading through that site's CSS (there's a lot of it), I extracted
the essence to the following:
http://www.sarroukhs.f2s.com/test/
This seems to work fine in IE5/6/7, FF2, Opera and Seamonkey.
A few questions:
1. On the drugs.gov.uk page, the right column behaves like a table cell,
stretching to the height of the other columns. Presumably this is some
trickery with background images but does anyone know how this is done? I
mean, how can background images be used when the width of the column is
not known?
2. When I boost the font in Firefox, the text spills out of the columns.
When I boost the font in Opera, after hitting a certain size the
rightNav column falls below the content column. The font has to be
pretty big in both cases for these things to happen. Would you consider
this to be a problem with the layout or is it more like inevitable
collateral damage? What, if anything, should I do about it?
Input greatly appreciated.
