Generally, the sidebar column is narrow and the main column is wide. • Decide whether you want the sidebar column to appear on the left or the right • In the style sheet, enter the code for the sidebar and main id selectors. Assign a width (as a percentage) to the sidebar column. Do not assign a width to the main column • In the document body, enter start and end div tags for the sidebar and main divs • If you are not floating all the id selectors, change the source order so that the floated content appears before nonfloated content • If necessary, change the margins and cellpadding of your columns New Perspectives on Blended HTML, XHTML, and CSS
