    Creating a Three-Column Fixed Design with a Simple CSS Framework


    (Page 1 of 4 )

    Building a customizable CSS framework that allows you to create several types of web page layouts in a short time isn’t as simple at it seems, particularly if you’re taking your first steps in professional web development. However, in this group of articles you’ll be provided with some useful pointers to get you started building your own CSS framework. This is the fourth part of a four-part series; don't hesitate to start reading now!

    Introduction

    Of course, if you've already read all of the preceding articles of this series, then it's probable that you have a solid background in building a CSS framework like the one that I mentioned above. In those articles I demonstrated progressively how to build a set of simple CSS files for constructing classic web page layouts, ranging from liquid designs to fixed ones.

    This educational journey hasn't ended yet, because there's one important feature that needs to be incorporated into this CSS framework. As you'll surely recall, I left off in the last article claiming that I was going to illustrate how to use the framework to construct a three-column fixed web page design.

    So, in this last episode I'm going to walk you through this development process in an approachable fashion, completing this hopefully instructive guide.

    Are you ready to tackle this final part of the series? Then let's get started!
