Hello from Houston TX.
I’m a brand new website daddy. I want to build a site with css with 3 columns that expand and shrink, moving the footer up and down with the middle column being the major text user.
(Left column buttons etc. middle column lots of talk & right column general goo. Hope you guys can help, I’m stuck on top dead center. Thanks everyone

The good folks at Softpress came through with the answer.
Thanks guys for your help

Hi Martin,

You should be able to do this using child items. Draw an HTML item at the top for your page and one at the bottom, then one large one in the middle.

Draw three child items inside this and resize them to match the widths you want and use 100% height in the Inspector palette.

I’ve attached a simple example file which shows this being down for you to look at.

Hope this helps,

To add to that Ernie Simpson made a fine example of a truly flexible 3
column w/footer page right here:
