(thanks for all the help with my prior footer question!!)
hi...
i'm curious as to how i could easily create a vertical line between the
'left area/right area' of the below diagram.
i have a site/page structure that i want to look like the following:
+------------------------------------------+
| |
| Header |
| |
| |
+------------------------------------------+
| (Nav Menus) |
+------------------------------------------+
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
|(Left Side)| Right Side |
| | (Text Area) |
| | |
| | |
| Menu/ | |
| Login | |
| |<<<<--------------------------|------<< vertical
line!!
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
+------------------------------------------+
| Footer |
+------------------------------------------+
the issue that i'm having is that i can set up the css to draw a line for
either the left or the right, based on the left-border, right-border, but it
doesn't get me what i'm looking for, given that the two areas may not
necessarily be the same legnth/size.
so, i thought my solution would be to simply create a css/div that would
have 'height: 100%;' and do a 1 px solid line. ummm.. nope, didn't work.
instead it gave me a vertical liine that was longer than either left/right
area..
i've looked through various sites/information but didn't find anything that
gave me what i'm looking for. although i did run across some people who've
apparently had a similar problem!!
any pointers/solutions would be helpful.
thanks
