Here is the smallest amount of code that clearly illustrates my problem:
<html>
<body>
<div style="float: left; width: 200px;">One</div>
<div style="float: left; width: 200px;">Two</div>
<div style="background-color: #f0f;">Three</div>
</body>
</html>
The first 2 divs are supposed to be 2 left columns. The 3rd should take up the rest of the page. Eventually, I'm going to add options to hide and show the 2 columns on the left.
But, why is the color purple extending all the way to the browser's left edge? I am trying to get it to start at the word "Three".
