Fluid Center 3-Column CSS WP Layout

Well its orange! h scroll is wierd. Width is 100% with max width. This must be an IE thing. Try different viewport sizes please.

h scroll is now dead.

Here’s what it looks like on both Firefox and IE latest versions:

Thanks. Seems Ok. Its too late now ??

I swear, t’was not I who anonymously suggested tables. That layout looks great, but it makes me very hungry for an orange popsicle which I just happen to remember I have in my freezer.

Later!

@theglobalguy: Replace the following in your css and all will look good, at least with IE 6:
#lh-col {
position: absolute;
top: 156px;
left: 0;
width: 200px;
z-index: 3;
background: #063;
background-image: url(images/flwblockb.jpg);
color: #fff;
}
#rh-col {
position: absolute;
top: 156px;
right: 5px;
width: 200px;
z-index: 7;
background: #063;
background-image: url(images/flwblockb.jpg);
color: #333;
}
#c-col {
margin: 0 210px 0 205px;
position: relative;
padding: 0;
background: #063;
background-image: url(images/flwblockb.jpg);
color: #333;
z-index: 5;
height: 80%;
}

Thanks for pointing out the bugs in Vesuvius and to the guys who have put up screenies. It is really useful. I will certainly be tweaking. But that is now four of my templates which have borked on the comments page, when they got started.
I do not know what causes it but there is something spooky about those comments, both inline and in the pop ups.

@pez — Thanks, that seems to have done the trick!
To fix the weather size, I just explicitly specified the .gif size in index.php. We only have ‘net access for about 8 hours a day, so unfortunately there are times when the weather data times out, and you’ll get the “no data available” message.

I have to say it is really wierd how the li children are set at 142% in the default. Tx for pointing it out. I have also applied my comment box hack to the odd behavior of the comment input box. Hopefully that is going to solve most of the issues.

Got me all interested…then the links don’t work!

This is becoming my fav WP support link:

Regarding the old discussion tables vs CSS:

If you feel comfy with CSS use it – otherwise use one simple table to define your blog structure.

I guess I should put this layout demo https://stijlstek.nl/demo/beirut/
into a WP theme sometime. I know it’s not perfect, but at least it works in Firefox and IE (don’t know about Mac browsers yet). It’s a pure CSS solution, and it seems people want something like that.
