A beginner needs assistance for positioning

[Georges Saunier]

Greetings,

As a beginner in CSS, I want to avoid using <TABLE>. But positioning
"blocks" is not as easy as it seems in the different tutorials I already
read.

What I want can be seen at <http://ipr.univ-paris1.fr/css.jpg>.

- bandeau : always the same position ; same contents ;
- menu dynamique : always the same position ; contents vary according to the
mouse (sub-menu is added over the other blocks ;
- menu hiérarchique : same position ; same contents ;
- rubrique : same position ; the block can extend downwards ;
- texte : same position ; the block can extend downwards ;
- pied de page : always at the end.

Any help would be appreciate.

G. Saunier.
