I apologise for using a forbidden word - it seemed innocuous when I posted it. My enthusiasm must have got the better of me. Catriona

How unbelievably simple! I wonder why the small charitable body that I work for has spent over £4500 on a web developer who doesn't know this. Our project has been delayed by eighteen months because he was unable to implement a centrally aligned design and refused to use tables (with good reason maybe). Looking the CSS section I see that text within the body can easily be set within right and left margins.The variable side sections are immaterial as they have no content and can vary according to the size of the browser window.Thank you so very much. Tomorrow I'm going to kick ######. And ask for a pay rise!Catriona

Maybe I'm missing something but if you set the column widths as percentages, surely the actual width of the columns depends on the width of the browser window in which the page is opened. I want to set the central column at 600px independant of the size of the browser window and without using a centrally aligned table. Is this possible?I appreciate your help.Catriona

Thank you but I want variable width side columns and a fixed width central column without using a centrally aligned table.

Is it possible to divide a webpage into three sections with variable width margins and a fixed width central section (600px) without using a centrally aligned table? Are there accessibility issues with nesting centrally aligned tables for visually impaired users? I'd appreciate any help.Catriona
