3 Columns, fixed width - V1

3 Columns, fixed width, variable height, horizontal centers, Columns LEFT/RIGHT identical background - Version 01

Overall width: 990px (left: 210px - middle: 580px - right: 200px)

Author: K.Heermann (flip-flop) http://planmatrix.de 2010/01/06
CMS-Version: >= V1.2.8
Version: V1.0 06.01.2010
Update:

Based on: 3 columns layout (fixed widths) (Big John's Piefecta)

Requirement:

  • Content is to be located in the source text as the first
  • Any column may be longest
  • Each column can be filled with a full field background
  • Header is to stand at the top margin of the Viewport
  • The page should be displayed horizontally centered. All the columns are floated
  • Left and Main should stand side by side visually
  • CSS code should be conformal!

We have chosen a fixed width of 990px, to display the page well on 1024px screens.
