    <p>I have a problem that I thought was pretty simple but that is taking me a lot of time to solve it. If there is a simple solution (and I don't know CSS enough), please point me there and I'll close this question immediately.</p> <p>My problem is the following.</p> <p>I have 6 divs one on top of another, something like:</p> <pre><code>&lt;div id="header"&gt;header content&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="sidebar1"&gt;sidebar1 content&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="maincontent"&gt;maincontent content&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="maincontent2"&gt;maincontent2 content&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="sidebar2"&gt;sidebar2 content&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="footer"&gt;footer content&lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>What I want to have is something like:</p> <pre><code>----------------------------------------------------------- | header content | ----------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------- ------------------- | maincontent content | | sidebar1 content| | | ------------------- | | ------------------- | | | sidebar2 content| | | ------------------- -------------------------------------- -------------------------------------- | maincontent2content | | | | | | | | | -------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------- | footer content | ----------------------------------------------------------- </code></pre> <p>In other words, is there a way to create a right column even if the divs are not one after another using only CSS and without moving the divs in the code?</p> <p>I tried to use for sidebar1 the following css</p> <pre><code> position:absolute; top:3em; right:0; </code></pre> <p>and for sidebar2 the following css</p> <pre><code> position:absolute; top:9.5em; right:0; </code></pre> <p>but I have the impression that this is not the right way to do it.</p> <p>A simple way could be to define the <code>top</code> attribute size as a function of the height of heather, but I couldn't find any way to do it only with CSS.</p> <p>Thanks!</p>

    1. COYou could take a look at [960.gs](http://960.gs). It's great for column layouts, and nice if you're not too sure on your CSS (and a great way to learn).

    2. COI would like to use a stylesheet created by me and not external tools... it's more an exercise than a real implementation...

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
