> It seems you want a solution for content of unknown width, right? This correct. I want a FLUID fluid layout, and for the wide content to 'hold/push open' the center col (or maybe even all cols now that i think about it).

Even if i could do that, the center col is the primary content col, and i dont want users to have to scroll. As for 'cough cough'...i dont want to, as I've brainwashed myself into thinking 'theres a better way to do layout...CSS!!!'. With tables, i'd have had this working roughly when the berlin wall came down. thanks for your suggestions though :) ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
