By a strange coincidence, Mike Purvis also came up with this idea at about the same time, but with an added wrapper to allow control over content widening in different resolutions: http://uwmike.com/archive/jello-a-different-liquid-layou/ I have been heavily into this new trick for the last two weeks, and I'm folding a liquid version of the PIE Piefecta layout into this "jello mold" with great success. Here's the working demo (not quite finished with the text and the linking) : http://positioniseverything.net/articles/sidepages/jello-piefecta-simple.html Warning: "Big John gone wild with a palette" alert! The idea was to use the old hack ridden Piefecta, and also make a new simple version that does not cater to the gecko clearing but that existed before FF1. Unfortunately I have discovered that those old geckos have the bug in this layout even with the old "toe-in" trick on the side cols. So unless I can figure out how to correct it, the layout will have a potiential side col weakness in older geckos. If anyone can find problems with this in modern browsers, please let us know, okay? It has been tested to work well in IE5+ (win/mac) and in gecko and safari as well. Remember, this demo is NOT finished yet!
