Re: [WSG] how do I add a navigation type menu in CSS
Two ways that spring to mind: float the menu to the left and leave enough padding on the content's left side to compensate (although this may be flaky in certain situations), or use absolute positioning to put both the menu and the content on the page... Effectively, it's a simple 2 column layout. Patrick __ re·dux (adj.): brought back; returned. used postpositively.

If you want the main content to flow around the navigation, float the navigation left or right inside and at the beginning of the containing element of the main content.
