hi
im so sick of my i frames layout and i want an iframes layout...
i wanna css layouT! lol

i've tried 2 get it, but www.freewebs.com/pci_layout2 is as far as i've gotten. im also wondering, with css layouts, can u make them extend like tables? eg. theres no set size, but it just gets longer like tables? what's the downfall with tables?? coz at the moment they seem a lot easier than css layouts....also how do u change the colour/border colour or each "box" thing in css layouts/tables?

either way i also need to know how to link things in one "box" and get it to appear in the main one... do u target it like frames?

i really want a layout that will look ok in all screen sizes, coz at the moment thats wots really bugging me about the iframes.

i really need everything explained about these layouts, wether it be css layouts or tables coz i dont understand much of it.... -sniff-

i want the same sort of design as www.punkdisasters.com - no, not the same layout, but a header and three columns in the middle. i used lissa's code but all it got me was (www.freewebs.com/pci_layout2)

if ne1 could help me that would b awesome coz i am so confused rite now and ive been trying stuff for ages. btw, soz if i;ve just rambled on and on, but i really want 2 get it clear that i dont understand nething! lol cheers

UPDATE - lol. ok i now kno that they DO extend, but how do i make the box always appear underneath, without having to change the pixel amount everytime i add somethign new to the div?

I'm not sure what you mean, but you could use floats and clear: both; (for footer and to always appear underneath) with your CSS.

so if i use the clear:both tag, the next boxy thing should automatically appear underneath the above one?
