I know exactly where you are coming from, I was there a couple of years ago. A couple of bits of good news. (1) it is not as hard as it looks to make the next steps, and (2) there are hosting companies out there who offer exactly what you need for very modest fees. I have had very good experien

Well the first thing that comes to mind is to add a larger margin-left to #left_main. But the calculation is not obvious as your container is 1024px, and you have margins and padding of 1em. Across the floating divs, you have 3x25%x1024px = 768px for the div content, 6x1em for the margins. So yo

It appears that you are trying to avoid a page break in a div containing several s. Your examples appear to work in Opera, but not in IE8. IE8's support for page-break-inside is best described as "buggy". -Original Message- From: css-d-boun...@lists.css-discuss.org [mailto:css-d-boun...@

On a regular screen, the norm appear to be to define a container div of a fixed width, put in a float left nav bar, etc, etc. On a small screen, this really doesn't cut it. I'm trying to make a couple of style sheets for small screens that have a family likeness to the "normal" one, but which

You are trying for fluidity and a side bar. Here's a suggestion. How about a container div width:100%. Then your float:left;width:13% left div, your float:left;width:72% main div (as now) and your side bar as a float:left;width:11%. Except the %s don't add up. Peter -Original Message-
