The text in the panes on the left and right should wrap around the
superimposed feature boxes in the center.
It's possible, but not easy. It would require using dummy blocks floated
in the 2 main columns to cause the text to wrap around, and then
absolutely positioning the feature boxes in the center.
Yeah. Your HTML template should look something like this:
<body>
<div id="header">...</div>
<div id="feature">...</div>
<div id="sitemap">
<div class="featurespace">...</div>
...
</div>
<div id="main">
<div class="featurespace">...</div>
...
</div>
</body>
Using:
#feature to horizontally absolutely position.
.featurespace to set width and height to match #feature.
#sitemap .featurespace floated right.
#main .featurespace floated left.
