I've started integrating
CSS layout 3 with the template system. I transfered the positioning definitions only. The fancy parts, such as background colors and borders, were only used to outline the various bits and pieces. We don't want LemonChiffon and GoldenRod colors in the default layout, we'll just keep it haze grey & underway.
The combined design constraints also require redefining the DIVs . Specifically, we add a sub-block containing both the center and left column. This is no problem, as the template system combines HTML and CSS.
The design comes in nicely, and is slightly different from MS2, as all columns are “liquid”; that is the left and right column will get wider if you enlarge your browser. They were fixed at 125px in MS2.
