I'm not trying to reinvent the wheel but I am having a hard time finding it!

I am looking for a three column layout using divs. The center div should be at the top of the code (along with header 1 element). The order of the left and right columns do not matter however it should be able to break down (removing either the left or right sidebars or both) and still display properly. Oh yeah, I need it to work with Netscape 4 and preferably the earliest possible versions of Opera if possible.

Essentially I'd like the HTML to look like this...

<div class="center">
<h1>Main Content</h1>
</div>
<div class="leftorright">
<h2>sidebar stuff</h2>
</div>
<div class="rightorleft">
<h2>sidebar stuff</h2>
</div>

Where is that missing wheel? :)

Forget it, unless by "compatible" you mean using

@import
and serving an unstyled page. I was one of the last hold-outs for NN4 compatibility, but even I admit that it is totally dead now. You can't even install the thing these days (the default netscape.com home page crashes the browser).

Netscape 4 is a non-problem. Why create specious hurdles?

What can be more uber then what I do, and then support something like Netscape 4? :D

But I'm still looking for that one layout if anyone can help me find it. I'm willing to do lots of serverside coding to serve content based on the browser. It's a because I could scenario.
