Author: K.Heermann (flip-flop) http://planmatrix.de 2010/01/07
CMS-Version: >= V1.2.8
Version: V1.0 2010.01.07
Update:

Based on: 3 columns layout (central fluid) (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 site is designed to fill the entire window horizontally. All the columns are floated.
  • The column in the middle should have a dynamically Width (min. width)
  • Left and Main should stand side by side visually
  • CSS code should be conformal!
