Resolution dependent layout
The Man in Blue has found a possible solution to the liquid layout debate: "The solution is to add a little vitamin J. JavaScript can tell you what the width of a browser is, then react accordingly. By default the content is displayed in a single column. Non-JavaScript enabled browsers, or lower resolution ones, will stay that way. But if you're 1024-up, with JavaScript, an alternate stylesheet gets put into action."

You can find everything on Google:
There is one browser that supports media queries. More will come in time. I do not find yet another yavaskript 'solution' attractive in the least. Castles in the sand...

First, CSS3 is far far away. 2nd - I could not get it to work in Firefox 1.0PR :)

Media Queries are Candidate Recommendation, and thus much less far far away than other CSS3 modules. Report a bug and try to get it implemented in FF as well...

Firefox 1.0PR works for me, but in only updates after you've finished resizing and let go of the size grip. Took me a while to realize that.8. September 22, 2004 03:16 PM

Cool idea, I think I will use that on my next redesign. I've been looking for a decent liquid layout fix for a while now.

There are CSS3 media queries for that purpose.
