CSS Negative Margins - Part Four: Three Column Liquid Layouts
By: Zoe Gillenwater on Friday, May 20, 2005
Reader Level: 
The CSS Negative Margins series has shown you how to create a two column layout that resizes with the browser window, has equal height columns, has proper source order and is resistant to Internet Explorer's tendency to drop large content next to floated columns. This tutorial shows how to use the same techniques, plus a couple new tricks, to create a three column version of the layout with the same features.
Note: This layout doesn't work as intended in Internet Explorer for the Mac. When you resize your window to the point where the photo fills the whole div, the sidebar will drop down below the main column. If you still need to fully support Mac IE at multiple screen resolutions, this technique is probably not for you!
