They say, that a single picture can explain more than a tousand words, so here’s my “more”: http://www.imagebanana.com/view/hcqsz5fs/cols.png
My goal is to have the columns as shown on the image, with them together having 100% body width.
And my fiddle is here: http://jsfiddle.net/c2JH3/ (note that this is just a mockup of my current work).
How can I achieve this?
Thank you all for your answers and ideas. They were helpful and I did learn something new (my biggest ‘thank you’ goes to @Jon for a really great, great post). But, since I can’t solve this neither with percents nor backgrounds (since my design is a little more complicated that the one provided), I made my way with jQuery. To sum up, here’s my mockup fiddle.
Note: sometimes you’ll need to change left
125to126, just to make sure both ends meet.
