About three years ago I put together a minimal pure-CSS layout using as
few hacks as possible that worked well in modern standards-compliant
browsers, but also in Internet Explorer 5+ and Netscape 4.x, while
degrading gracefully in non-CSS browsers.

This can be found here:

Today I've updated it a little:

* Got it working in Internet Explorer 7.0 (Only verified
in WINE -- not on Windows. Can anyone verify this on Windows
XP/2003/Vista?)

* Got it working in Internet Explorer 5.2 for Mac (the
last version made).

* Got it working in iCab 3+ for Mac.

* Added a small piece of Javascript to force all the columns
to be same height.

* Added a footer below the columns. When Javascript is
enabled, this will be full-width. Otherwise it will only
be as wide as the middle column.

All this new stuff is here:

What do people think? A good way of doing 3 columns + header + footer?
