First time posting a question, have been reading for a few weeks. I've got a design I'm adapting to a CMS that calls the sections dynamically. I want my sidebar on the left. I've seen arguments regarding SEO and content coming first in the code. Therein lies the dilemma. My design has a background image, which I've set to a wrapper for the sidebar and content. No problems, if I have a lot of "content" for the content div, all is well. I use a position: absolute for the sidebar, and call it after the content. http://sandbox.miklb.com However, if I don't have any content, the wrapper only wants to extend the length of content, not the sidebar. http://sandbox.miklb.com/about
I'm doing this on a Mac, but I checked the main page in IE 6, it looked fine. Everything is valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional, and the CSS validated as well. My question is this: is there another way to get the sidebar to come first on the screen but second in the code, and are there any insights into the arguments regarding content coming first in the code in the first place? Thanks in advance for any opinions. -- ------------------------------------ Michael B aka miklb ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
