Skip,
A quick one here, since I'm currently writing on this privately.
A screen widget is your stackable building block. Use it everywhere.
Screen widgets can include other screen widgets.
For what you want, use <container>, which outputs a HTML <div>. Use CSS to float the <div>s left
or right.
Sometimes, you might still wanna use FTL. See ${component:common}/webcommon/includes/header.ftl
for an example where FTL couldn't be avoided. Component "common" is in the /framework folder.
You can wrap FTL fragments in screen widgets. Again, use screen widgets as your stackable building
blocks.

I still haven't got a good handle on what can be done with this widget
stuff, so I am just going to plunge in based on the samples. However, I
have one question someone might know the answer to.
I want a screen like this:
----------------------------------------+
--------------------Title----------------
Some ftl
------------------------------------------
--------------------Title----------------+
some ftl
+----Title1--------+--------Title2--------+
some ftl | someother ftl |
My question concerns displaying containers side by side like the Titlt1 and
Title2. Can this be done with a widget property and if so, is there a
sample somewhere. I know how to do this in the ftl but I wanted to be able
to use the widgets separately in other places.
