(It is counterintuitive as from print design layout point of view to have the 'heavier' column block on the left; in print layout, one usually puts the heaver to the right for Western reading audiences). But, the way a browser's scroll bars usually default to favor the top and left, makes it sensible to put the weight on the left for web content. Setting it of with a bit of right and left whitespace for readibility is usually a good idea as well TOP-NAV-section sub-head band (usually local context) (whitespace or a rule) left block | right ........ | .... ........ | .... (whitespace or a rule) bottom anchor I experiment with layout from time to time: compare: http://www.trading-shim.org/faq/ (a left side anchor and text flowing away from the center) with: http://www.trading-shim.org/faq/?other-voices (visible table layrou rules, but 'padding' within each box cell for readibility -- but resize the width of your browser and watch the authors entry for: Continuous Trade get ugly ;) ) -- Russ herrold
