I think "layers" is rather odd. That site seems to be using the term
just to mean "block box".

Use float: left, not align="left". IIRC align="left" on a div turns
into "float: left" but only in quirks mode.

Use a series of left floats if you need to set height on them. Otherwise
just a series of inline elements (span for example, or <li> but set li {
display: inline; }). You can then set left and right padding on the
inlines to achieve spacing.
