I played with ez-css (which I like) but yet it reminded why I used tables. Here is my problem and I am sure it is just me being dumb. Say I want a header, a footer and two columns in between. I want the left column of fixed with (a menu, 200px) and a right column to foll the rest of the space (content). Because of the way it works (and most of these frameworks work the same way), the columns float to right therefore I must specifycontent before the menu. Hence I cannot find a way to make the menu fixed width and the content fill the rest of the space without messing up the alignment of the boxes. Can you do it?
