Hey everyone! I was wondering how you code parallel content boxes so that they do not expand when content is added. An example would be the P2L site, where there are parallel content boxes full of content that do not distort one another when content is added. Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Joey

Parallel as in side by side? Or one on top of the other?
It could help to specify.
Just open the page up in whatever program you use(if you do use one) to create websites(Dreamweaver, GoLive, Namo, etc.) and place the content boxes where you want them. Then read below.
I've done it in the past by simply using CSS, and it's very easy yet it's very 'powerful' to use.
I suggest going to w3schools to learn more about it and how to code it into your content box if you don't know how already.

If your newer i suggest learning how tables work first, then going on to CSS because CSS is a little more complicated the manipulating tables.

But for your questions yes tables and CSS can both do that.
