Default noob trouble with css - 05-11-2008 , 02:58 PM






Can anyone please let me know how I can make the "main_left" div
expand to the remaining space after "main_right" occupies the right
220px. I have tried different combinations but the "main_left" drops
down below "main_right".

Many thanks in advance.
