html - The three-column layout conundrum, this time sans header and footer -
i know 1 of web 1.0 newbie questions, alas, in position asking myself. sites not necessitate sort of layout , looking @ doing 1 friend three-column layout, fixed-width center column...with twist of no header or footer box elements , stip 3 columns stretch height-wise fit size of screen on viewed.
further exacerbating issue body
have 1 color or background image , center column have own background color or image.
visually, page layout such:
+----------+---------------+----------+ |nothing |only content |nothing | |here |will here |here | |just |w/a different |just | |body b/g |background |body b/g | |color or |color or |color or | |image |image |image | | | | | | |all 3 columns | | | |always fill | | | |screen height | | +----------+---------------+----------+
i have read interesting arguments against absolute positioning (adobe forums) clash faux columns , other absolute/relative positioning. ideally i'd floats not sure efficient way accomplish this. date have not tried because fell lap. again, know basic, when come doing sites 1 b/g color , centered elements has me thinking, 'why hard?'
not sure if intend middle section wider side columns - if want wider 33.3%.
for height, want:
html, body { height: 100%; }
then ensure central div is
position: relative; height: 100%; margin: 0 auto;
