[css-d] faux column with a mix of fixed and undefined width columns
In classic GUIs it is quite easy to do what I aim for, but I don't recall ever figuring out how to do it in css. div id=container div id=text lots of text paragraphs /div div id=right fixed width column of icons and indicators /div /div I wish container to get 100% width, right to get say 10em width and text to get 100% - 10em width. Hmm, I think I once got tables to behave like that. Would some display:table do the trick?

div id=container div id=text lots of text paragraphs /div div id=right fixed width column of icons and indicators /div /div I wish container to get 100% width, right to get say 10em width and text to get 100% - 10em width. How about doing something like your container at 100% width with a right padding of 10em, then your text at 100% width, and your right div being 10em wide with the margin pushing it past the outer edge of the container? Something like that? ~Shelly __ 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/
Re: [css-d] faux column with a mix of fixed and undefined width columns
Found the answer (guess I had forgotten some float basics) put right column before text, and define right with float right and text with no float or width but with a 10em margin.
