A little layout advice please...

Sent by Les Mizzell on 4 April 2007 03:03


Good evening,

I've finally run across a layout that I'm scratching my head over.

It's a standard centered master div containing a header, two columns 
under that, and a footer.

Left column width is set for nav/whatever.

Here's the problem...

The right column will contain content that's being pulled in from an 
external source. So, the width is *unknown*. It might be 400px, or it 
might be 550px, who knows.

So the right column needs to be able to:
  a. stay put where it belongs
  b. expand/contract at will, depending on content
  c.and the master container needs to expand/contract
    as needed towards the right dependent on the width
    of the right column. Which also means the the header
    and its contents, plus footer content need to stretch
    along with it.

Ideas?
