I don't double div everything just the sections (e.g. content, menu, footer). I still sub-divide those divs. For example:
<footer> <footerPad> <footerRight> </footerRight> <footerLeft> </footerLeft> </footerPad> </footer> I saw that Dave was struggling with his footer layout so I gave him my approach to layout design (without addressing his specific CSS). Again this is my opinion and I was sharing what works for me. - Tim Gunlaug Sørtun wrote: > Big Moxy wrote: > >> You're exactly right.
