Liquid Tables, and Jello and Ice, too

“How do you make a web page that looks good no matter how wide the browser window is? Use liquid tables, a technique that lets you ‘pour’ your content into the page so that it flows to the margins, even if the window is resized. Wait a sec, doesn’t the good old HTML tag allow content to flow? Yes, but the problem is, you often need parts of the page to remain fixed, such as a navigation bar down one side. The challenge is to have both a fixed and a flexible portion of the page. This is where liquid tables will help you.”
