    Some Allignment Changes with my template

    Hi,
    I have a template which I got it freely from the internet. I want to modify it to meet the requirements of my new website

    design. Basically the change I want is that the content area must be much more wider and the Column containing the links must

    go to the extreme right. Or probably extreme left would be better while the content area goes to the right as seen in

    http://www.freejavaguide.com . Note that This is a Liquid layout template.

    Can anyone please help me. Can anyone also tell me if such free liquid template layouts are available on the net. Thank you

    once again.

    Regards,
    Hemanthhttp://www.freejavaguide.com

    It's easier to make the left column fixed width and the right one flexible. If the left one is shorter than the content right column you can stop the content overflowing underneath if you want, so it just continues on down keeping the same width with a blank space under the left column. Or you can let the content flow under the left column.

    http://www.wickham43.supanet.com/tut...eecolumns.html item 10 shows the basic code to stop the flexible column flowing under the fixed width left column if it is shorter. Item 12 shows the flexible content column flowing under the left column (you could omit the middle column).

    You might find a suitable template at http://www.csszengarden.com/?cssfile...001.css&page=1

    Or use your example of http://www.freejavaguide.com/ and delete all the content so that you are just left with the structure (I don't think you would run any copyright risk if you only use the source code which seems to be very standard for that website).
    Code downloaded to my PC will be deleted in due course.
    WIN7; IE9, Firefox, Opera, Chrome and Safari for Windows; screen resolution usually 1366*768.
    Also IE6 on W98 with 800*600 and IE8 on Vista 1440*900.
