In deed I dont like grid css systems too much, because tends to slower
my computer due to the use of zoom plugin in firefox (a must for my f***
1920x1200px resolution in my 15" notebook)... in other words, the html
rendering of miles of nested divs size-recalculated are a hungry cpu hole...

Why do we need a grid system again? Why does this belong to web2py? I
am not convinced.
I only suggested 1) a better admin. 2) ability to choose among
different web2py scaffolding apps.
Perhaps one of the options can be 960, another couse can be
BlueprintCss.

I had another look around. Here are my notes ...
YAML: Creative commons licence with backlink. Unacceptable, right.
Golden Grid: MIT licence seems good and the size is tiny. Would be
great to include, but the project doesn't seem active enough, so I'm
not so sure.
Blueprintcss: MIT and well supported. Seems very comprehensive but
maybe not quite simple enough... may be better as some kind of plugin
as suggested previously.
http://960.gs/: MIT and looks active. Size 8Kb so that seems light
enough and straightforward to use too.
YUI: Has everything incl kitchen sink. Only as plugin I guess.
Conclusion: 960 grid might be a decent choice to replace existing
layout table. Blueprint / YUI as plugins as Massimo suggested
earlier.

Looking for more info about OOCSS, I just stumbled upon
that:http://www.yaml.de/en/
(It seems to also make use of jQuery in some ways.)
I am no expert, but it looks interesting to me, so I thought I would
mention it.

Hi Mengu, I've never heard of this, but like the fact that it's based
on YUI but still seems simple and flexible to use. It's appealing to
start off with their solid foundation which you can safely build upon.
I think using a CSS framework is getting to be inevitable these days.
Most designers will have pieced together their own, but IMO that's not
a good idea for programmers -- it's so easy to lose a couple of hours
fiddling with CSS, especially regular gotchas like a div slipping
down the page in IE but which behaves perfectly well in FF -- we just
don't need it! I can see why Massimo must have given it some thought
and then gone back to a good old table!
In my mind, the main question is: is there any kind of standard
which gives immediate access to lots of templates. If not, then the
second question is: what is light, simple, and well supported enough
to include?
I think Blueprint or the full YUI is probably overkill. However, I
would just mention code.google.com/p/the-golden-grid/ with which I was
also very impressed for basic page layout. The author has a great
philosophy and it's so light and simple (is 1K small enough?!) that it
could easily be included with Web2py for the basic page divs. And,
if anyone doesn't like it, it's just as easy to tear up and
replace :-)
