i absolutely hate it. i could design so much stuff if i knew how to make layouts! earlier on i was asked to make a website for a friends store, and i know i can do it, but then i realised...i cant do layouts very well! soi figured id better touch up on my website skills so i can be ready to help them. so does anyone know how to do layouts well, and use msn??? if so, could you plz add me at <!-- e --><a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a><!-- e --> or leave me your email address, or we can just talk over the forums if u like..
....anyways.. the things i dont understand is:

Just a word of advice, so this isn't a totally pointless post, don't go off positioning things absolutely. It'll look good on your moniter, but people with lower, or higher, resolutions wont be able to see some of the page. Fluid layouts using EM and % for width, floating things into place, and using relative positioning is key in my opinion.Just a word of advice, so this isn't a totally pointless post, don't go off positioning things absolutely.

aii...i learned that lesson along time ago.lol, i was able to make it look great on my computer, using ie, but then when ppl are like "mozilla" and "netscape" ....i wasnt too happy..lol,
but the fluid layout parts, i dont understand, what is EM, nad floating, and using "relative" positioning...ive never understood that, but im hoping those sites will help me out, and if i have trouble ill post again.The 'em' unit is equal to the computed value of the 'font-size' property of the element on which it is used.
In other words its based upon the size of the letter 'm' which in the olden days used to be 1/6 inch.yeah, i really have no clue...lol
