Thank you Maq for some maturity. Haku, please take a deep breath and look back through this thread: I asked a question politely (probably in the wrong topic...sure, I get that part!) and all i needed to be told was the correct protocol for having my question answered - not to bluntly be reminded of the subject matter of the thread. Don't comment in my thread if you can't advance the discussion.

Hi guys setting up the layout div's for a new website. Essentially i have three divs that will act as columns. I want a central (centred) column of fixed width 1000px. and the left and right columns to scale their width according to the remaning screen width. The three columns currently sit inside an overall container div. Here is the code: HTML ... <div id="container"> <div id="left_header"></div> <div id="central_header"></div> <div id="right_header"></div> </div> and CSS ... body {margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; } #container {height:200px; width:100%;} #left_header {float:left; height:200px; width:100px; background-image: url(img/heading-left.png);background-repeat: repeat-x;background-position: left top;} #central_header {float:left; height:250px; width:1000px; background-image: url(img/main_header.png); background-position: left top;} #right_header {float:left; height:200px; width:100px; background-image: url(img/heading-right.png); background-repeat:repeat-x; background-position: left top

dadamssg you only waste your time when you write something like that ^ ... tool

piss off! why waste your time writing that. I'm not joining a new forum to ask a simple question many people here will be able to help with in a minute of their time. Any genuine helpers please?
