Re: 2 divs on same line

I am a developer primarily, not a web designer but i am able to do both. I
agree i did all previous sites with table designs and it does seem the new
'best way' changes all the time. But for fear of a new 'All improved IE!'
being released that depricates tables in some form i want to ensure i am
always on the latest techniques because you just never know what the future
holds.

For years I have not been able to understand what's wrong with table
layout. May be because I am an application developer as opposed to a web
designer. Tables let your make a simple and neat layout and concentrate on
your application tasks. I guess web designers can achieve more with
tableless css. I prefer to leave it up to them. As far as I, the
developer, am concerned there is no reason to avoid tables.

If you want to impress someone by having a table-less css layout, be
prepare to spend next few days on learning and practicing.

If you want a simple and reliable solution, use tables.

And yes, by default a div will render on a separate line.

Hi

i have a requirement for the following layout in my masterpage:

1 div for header
1 div for footer

Between those divs i want a div for the left menu, then a div for the
content in the center, then inside each i will place a content holder
for other pages to inherit off

My problem is a div creates a new line? And everyone says not to use
tables anymore, so how do you get that look with css?

Thanks
