[thelist] CSS fluid design

[josh]

All - 

I have tried creating a fluid layout using CSS for a website and have found 
it to be challenging at the least.  I am designing for an Intranet using a 
baseline of IE4. 

I have read plenty of stuff on CSS layouts but none of it has really clearly 
explained how to achieve full control, table-like layout (there's an ironic 
way to say that) with CSS. Does anyone have any great hands on resources? 

Here is the best CSS _layout_ example site that I found, but it doesn't 
really explain how the browser interprets the code:

I want to understand the nuts and bolts. 

Thanks,
Josh
