Yeah, well, I’ve been hankering after a 3 column layout for a while now, and this one works in both IE6 and Firefox. My old 2 column layout does not play well in Firefox: probably something icky to do with either divs, or it doesn’t understand the width expressed as a percentage.
It only took all day. However, part of yesterday and much of today were spent chasing after a 3 column solution that simply would not work; I found a much more workable one that was easier to adapt at the Moveable Type support forum.
For the record, the “holy grail” layout, though very nice, doesn’t adapt easily to MT if you’re a relative noob such as myself. It combines the CSS style elements with the HTML that goes in the index file; it was hard to flip back and forth adjusting my own stylesheet to get all the scattered style elements to play nice, and not infringe on each other’s personal freedoms.
