Hi everyone, I¹m Richard I¹m new to the list and new to CSS. I¹m learning it for my job and the websites I work on. I¹m used to tables and old fashioned html and am having a hard time understanding how layout is done in css. I¹m used to working with Fireworks and Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign/Quark where I can just drag items around visually and plunk them wherever so css seems very alien and non intuitive to me.
I¹ve got an example here of what I¹ve done and now I¹m stuck. And I¹ve included a jpg of what I would like it to look like. Can it be done in css? Frankly I¹m having a hard time believing the hype about how good and useful css is supposed to be when I can¹t even do the simplest layout. I feel stupid. Can what I want be done and how would I go about it? I design on a Mac with Dreamweaver MX 2004 (and Firefox) but nearly everyone else I work with uses XP and the site will mostly be viewed on Win IE and maybe Win Firefox. Any help would be greatly greatly appreciated.
