So I've decided to go with CSS and xhtml instead of the old table driven way of designing a webpage structure. What would be a better start than just try to put together a simple two column classic layout centered in the middle of the page. Shite! Did this quirk bite me? I struggled for hours with this insanity. Finally found out that a simple two column layout is one of the hard things to get working without hacks. Insane.

I started reading up on CSS and XHTML the other day. I used to work with designing and coding webpages but that was some time ago. I quickly remembered how hard it is to not throw the computer out of the window when trying to create web content that shows roughly equal in different browsers.
Anyway one of the hurdles I had to overcome was the way CSS standard handles a box compared to how the IE dev team and I thinks of a box.
