[css-d] Float problem with order of HTML

2008-10-28 Thread Rory Fitzpatrick
Hi,

I'm trying to create a layout that has the nav section taking up a  
left hand column from position 0,0 of the container, with a header and  
then content on the right. I want to do this with the nav HTML element  
appearing below the header, but without using absolute positioning. My  
progress so far is at:

http://www.roryf.co.uk/projects/safhs

This shows the desired effect I want but has the nav first in the  
HTML. If it comes second it renders below the header, whatever margin- 
left or float value I give to the header element. The only way I've  
found is giving the header an absolute width, but this then causes  
problems with the margin-right on the nav and I'd rather it was more  
flexible than that.

Any suggestions?

Cheers
Rory

Maybe this all floats layout will work for you...

Header first, content second, vertical nav third, and footer fourth in 
source is also possible with a float construction...
