What I want to do seems like it should be so simple, but if I had hair, I'd be pulling it out.
I want my page divided into four sections, each of which span the entire width of the page. Sections 1 and 2 are fixed height. Sections 3 and 4 shared the remainder of the page 50/50.
The following example (
online here) works perfectly in Gecko-based browsers, but not in IE.
Apparently, IE doesn't "do" the
bottom CSS attribute. Playing with the DOCTYPE to switch the browser into and out of standards-compliant mode doesn't seem to have any effect.
So without resorting to tables (which introduce nastiness of their own when I start populating the sections with their intended content), is there a way to accomplish this using CSS? I've run outa ideas!
