But it needn't be difficult. Even if you're positioning
relatively, there will most often be a logical structure.
I'm really making the transition from understanding
structure from a theoretical standpoint to a practicable
one.
Unless one is going for DHTML ultra-complex sites, I'm
starting to understand that thinking ahead a little, and
keeping things simple is often the best way to go.
The float is a matter of presentation, where it lies in the
document is a matter of structure. It's like math, the
better the mathematician, the more elegant the equation.
Mind you, I believe that the purpose of HTML is to transmit
information, rather than flash (NPI).
