Overlapping avoidable?

Hi, i have been looking at this example to work out how to do a nice fluid design.

http://bluerobot.com/web/layouts/layout3.html

And it all works however it suffers from an overlapping issue that is also seen on his example when reducing the browser window.

Can this be resolved?

Thanks.

Re: Overlapping avoidable?

Do you mean how the centre column overlaps the far right when the browser gets really small?

If that's the case, you can set the body's minimum width like so:
Code: Select all
body {
min-width: 800px;
}
This means once the windows becomes smaller than 800px, the site will stay fixed and you'll have to scroll horizontally, rather than 'squishin' the content together.

Tried that and it didnt work for me. When i reduce the window size the right positioned Divs still flow behind my content.

Try
Code: Select all
body {
min-width: 800px;
position: relative
}
Out of interest, which browser are you using?
