OK, one might be enough. There's a cross-browser CSS to center the contents vertically with only one container: #content-wrap { ... margin-top:auto; margin-bottom:auto; vertical-align:middle; ... } And yes, the title should be inside `content-wrap' > table-of-contents-wrap > > footnote-wrap > bibliography-wrap > postamble-wrap > > So we put all the stuff into specific "wrap" containers. > I don't so much like "column-1", because that looks fine > if you use it for columns, but it looks confusing if you > use it for something else... Agreed. How about `org(-container ?) for the outer most container? Think of exporting the content only for inclusion into some framework. In that case `org' seems a natural name. Anyway, for sake of the TOC on the left, we should also wrap all the rest of the contents in one <div> with postamble being the only exception. The tree would simply be: org title table-of-contents-wrap table-of-contents content-wrap sec-1... - unchanged footnotes - unchanged bibliography postamble // already there The reason for the container around everything excluding title, TOC and postamble is, that I don't want the TOC to live in the left margin of the <body>, the way it does now. `float:left' for the TOC will cause the page to look funny in the most cases: +-----+--------------+ | TOC | TITLE | +-----+ SEC-1 | | SEC2 | | SEC2 | | FOOTNOTES | +--------------------+ | POSTAMBLE | +--------------------+ Better: +-----+--------------+ | TOC | TITLE | | | SEC-1 | | | SEC2 | | | SEC3 | | | FOOTNOTES | +--------------------+ | POSTAMBLE | +--------------------+ And this one here would be nice (all navigational elements visible on load): +-----+--------------+-----+ | TOC | TITLE | LOT | | | SEC-1 +-----+ | | SEC2 | LOF | | | SEC3 +-----+ | | FOOTNOTES | BIB | +-----+--------------+-----+ | POSTAMBLE | +--------------------------+ Some people (see drupal) put the postamble into the right/center column for two and three column layout respectively. I don't like that very much. What we should do before we change anything, is to experiment with one simple document and different stylesheets, to ensure everything works the way we want it to. I'll set up some with the different aproaches and try to add different CSS stylesheets. Our aim must be to make many different layouts possible (we will never make _all_ possible layouts feasable though). Important layouts are: | Name | example | |-------------------------+------------------| | Fixed TOC | orgmode.org | | Floating TOC | orgmode.org/worg | | Please add more here... | The usual page-flow will always stay what it is as long as no special styles are added.
