The New Blogger.com and CSS

Over on StopDesign, Doug has a TREEEEmendous write-up about the redesign of the new Blogger.com.  He's also thrown in some screen shots of the beautiful new templates, all CSS based and all standards compliant.  Awesome stuff.  Dan Cederholm's TicTac design is extra smooth. 

It warrants mentioning that if you are doing web development, and don't have Dan and Doug subscribed, do so now.  Far, far, far too many web developers treat CSS as merely a way to set the font and color for a page all at once.  They really don't get the zen of things.

  • The problem with using CSS for layout is IE. If you float your side column (on the left) and your contents is too wide IE will align it below the floating DIV instead of putting them next to each other and adding a scrollbar. If somebody has a solution to that I will stop using tables to layout my sites.

  • Phil, I need the navigation on the left, not right. If it's on the right it's trivial. And even in the link you posted - if your content is wider than two thirds of the browser window the right column will apear below thw wide element (a table, image, whatever), not next to it - a problem.
