Hello everybody,

I've been playing around a little with  negative margins to show two or
three columns in different order they are in the HTML code.   I've used
the information on a few articles and examples on positioniseverything,
LayoutGala, A list apart, Meyer's web, etc.  In all cases, to calculate
the appropriate negative margins, widths need to be fixed,  as far as I
have understood from the examples and articles.

What I'm trying to achieve is to show the navigation (fixed with on em)
at the left of  the main section (I'd like it to be liquid, with a max-
and a min-width on em), while it actually comes after it on the code:

    <body><section id="main">...</section>
    <nav><ul>...</ul></nav></body>

Is there any method described somewhere which would allow to do that?
Or has somebody tried/succeeded doing something like that, please?
Three columns instead of two, of course, would be even better.  :-)

Thank you in advance.

Regards,
Ángel

P.S.: I'm using HTML5 and CSS3 and, for this design, I don't care about
IE (any version) or old browsers.  I'm just looking for the best simple
way to achieve the described result.
