Hi guys,
I'm a total newbie to html so please be gentle
I have 3 divs and I want the middle div to be a static size and to be centered on the screen but the 2 either side of it to grow depending on screen with...
Is this possible?
Many Thanks
Ian

Here's the best I could come up with.
<!doctype html>
<html lang='en'>
<head>
<meta charset='utf-8'>
<title>layout test</title>
<style type='text/css'>
* {margin:0; padding:0;}
div {height:100px;}
#l {float:left; width:50%;}
#l div {margin-right:200px; background:#f88;}
#m {width:400px; margin:0 auto; background:#8f8;}
#r {position:absolute; right:0; top:0; width:50%;}
#r div {margin-left:200px; background:#88f;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id='l'><div></div></div>
<div id='m'></div>
<div id='r'><div></div></div>
</body>
</html>

Of course, it would be far simpler to just center the middle div and have fixed-width sidebars.
