In Search of the Perfect 3-Column CSS Layout

As any web developer knows, trying to devise a web page layout that has multiple side-by-side columns is not a trivial matter. And then just when you think you've found something that works, it seems to fail when you test it in another browser!

I've done a lot of research on the subject and have come up with something that works pretty good. It's not perfect but it works very well in both IE7 and Firefox 2.0. It's an ASP.Net project that you can download here. Though even if you're not an ASP.Net developer, you should be able to easily pull out the necessary elements to make it work in your development environment.

Credit must be given to Adam McIntyre for the Javascript code that makes sure the columns have an equal height. I modified it a bit but the original idea was his.
