I'm hesistant to say that One True Layout is the best thing out there,
but it's probably the best thing on our wiki for your purposes. Test
heavily though.
Another option would be to have different HTML sources for each of the
layout choices your users have. This would require less hackery to get
working cross-browser than One True Layout. But if you want to have the
exact same HTML source each time, just changing the CSS, then yes, One
True Layout is a good way to go.
One other thing:
To start a new thread, do not reply to an existing message. When you do
this,
your message gets threaded on to the old thread, which messes up the
archives
and makes it less likely that others will see your message and subsequently
reply to you. You must send a new message with an appropriate and
descriptive
subject line to [EMAIL-REMOVED] in order to start a new thread.
Thanks,
