ita is explaining why I have been tearing my hair out for the last month.
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I cheated, and floated the right hand column, and then had the footer use clear: left, but that's not right. It can't be.

Here's a decent tutorial [link] I think I'm still stuck with using one table for what I'm trying to do, though.

CSS is cool and all, but I don't get why tables are considered "old fashioned".

Is there any superduper easy way to make screen captures from Quicktime 7?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
If you have QT Pro, you can just choose "Export"-->"Movie to Picture"

- lead to bloated markup
- crap for text readers and accessibility in general
- PITA for redesigns
- bad for document flow
- degrade like ass on toast
- the W3C says so

Yeah, I've found that initially doing the positional CSS is a bitch, but once it's done, it's pretty sweet.
Thanks for that page, Ginger -- it's confirmed that the float is less of a cheat than I'd thought, and I'm going to re-float the nav panels on the left and the right -- my main problem was that the middle column was wrapping around the left one.

About that Netflix class action settlement mentioned in Press -- FAQ Wife got an email from Netflix about it, so hopefully it's well known.

Thanks for the Quicktime advice -- I got the screen cap I needed. I was looking under Save As, when I needed Export instead. ::sigh::
