CSS Multiple multi-column divs
- by accelerate
I have a bunch of items (text, image, mixed content, etc) that I want to display. The user can define what row and what column that item appears in. For example, in row 1, there could be two items/columns, both images. In row two, there could be three items / columns, one with an image, two others as pure text. Oh, and the user may specify the width of any particular column/image/item.
I have a solution that uses multiple tables that works. In essence, each row is a new table. This works for the most part.
I'm wondering if I can use just divs?
Now my CSS foo is lacking, and I tried to copy examples from the web, and I haven't been able to get it working. Right now I have something like this:
`[for each row]
[for each column]
[content]
`
But everything is overlapping each other.
I've also tried using "position: relative", but things look even more borked.
So can divs actually be used for multiple rows and different number of columns?
