...when serving pages as 'text/html'.
Validator I used was off Dreamweaver 8 and also off Firefox Web Developer
Tools. The latter is HTML Tidy; I thought the DW8 was based on w3.org.
I'm gathering the problem is this:
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
What should it be?

Hmmm -- I did do testing for resizing larger - smaller is rarely an issue.
Admittedly didn't test for the other two specifically. Appreciate being
reminded about this.

I can do a 3 column with the big one in the center -- have them on the site.
But couldn't find anything with 4 columns that met what I had to do on that
site as far as links and content.
I can "live" with the iced-4-column but future work needs 4 columns where at
least ONE of the middle or inner columns can be elastic.

I think it would help with maintenance. In fact, that's the only reason I would
take the time to do it. Right now if I alter say the padding and margin on
those inner columns, I have to get it right on every ONE of those classes. If I
"cleaned" it up or compacted it -- one change would be all that would be needed.
Appreciate your feedback a lot.
