Welcome, Sébastien!

a test.

In each column, I am using a 1px wide spacer float with a specific 
height, and pullouts are clearing their spacer float in each column, and 
only the left pullout contains the text as h1. Pullouts are pulled out 
horizontally via negative margin. They cant move up because they clear 
the spacer floats above them. The following text flows up, alongside. 
This allows the pullout text to be before the column text in the source.

does not work in IE-Mac, doesn't look that good in Opera. Don't know if 
this method works in complex layouts with many floats, probably not.

What does ici, un truc chouette mean?

Ingo
