Hi,

I am new to the list and new to CSS. I am writing a small website for a school for autistic children I am starting up in London. I am trying to do it myself to keep costs to a minimum.

If you look at it online you'll see the general style I want the pages to have (3 col, left and right ones narrow, pictures in banner at top etc etc). I have chosen this CSS from many samples I've looked at on the Web.

The URL is http://www.snowflakeschool.org.uk

I am writing it on a Mac Powerbook laptop and generally use Camino as my browser. It looks OK in there and I have fiddled around with the code to make it look as similar as I can on IE6/Windows and some other Mac browsers. If it is a mistake for me to be doing this on the Mac (since most people will be looking at the site from a PC) then please tell me.

Main question: How do I guarantee that the banner pics will be centered in the browser window, that the left and right columns will be below the banner and out to the side slightly, whether the page is viewed on a Powerbook, a Windows laptop or a regular PC and whichever browser is used?

I have seen advice as follows: forget CSS and just use tables for something as simple as this; use Javascript (x.js) to get x-browser compatibility; write it quick and dirty in MS Powerpoint (! that has to be a bad idea, no?); use browser detection and write several versions.

I'd like to achieve x-browser compatibility for this in CSS or, if it has to be, using Javascript as well. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

Tony.
