Layout template [sidebars\columns]

[Peter Flannery]

Hi

For sidebars should we continue using the same approach as the older oocss library. 

Because I noticed that the newer _template.scss doesn't contain any sidebars

the older oocss example: 

/* ====== Columns ====== */
.leftCol{float:left;width:250px;_margin-right:-3px;}
.rightCol{float:right;width:300px;_margin-left:-3px;}
/* extend columns to allow for common column widths */
.gMail{width:160px;}
.gCal{width:180px;}
.yahoo{width:240px;}
.myYahoo{width:300px;}

Appreciate anyone's input. thanks

Hi Peter,

If I am right, I think it should be the same. If you don't need a sidebar on a project don't include it else include it if you need. 

the way i use to implement this is like so:

HTML

sample three col content

<div class="content">

<!-- 

if you don't need a column remove it- it does not affect the presentation

      -->

<div class="leftcol">

</div><!-- /leftcol -->

<div class="rightcol">

</div><!-- /rightcol -->

<div class="main">

</div><!-- /main -->

</div><!-- /content -->

sample twocol content

<div class="content">

<!-- 

if you don't need a column remove it- it does not affect the presentation

      -->

<div class="leftcol">

</div><!-- /leftcol -->

<div class="main">

</div><!-- /main -->

</div><!-- /content -->

sample onecol content

<div class="content">

</div><!-- /content -->

CSS

                 .content { overflow: hidden;  }

.leftcol, .rightcol { float:left;  }

.leftcol { width:250px; _margin-right:-3px; }

.rightcol { width:300px; _margin-left:-3px; }

.main {}

.gMail {width:160px;}

.gCal {width:180px;}

.yahoo {width:240px;}

.myYahoo {width:300px;}

i hope that helps otherwise let me know - and for others let me know if am wrong pls

Cheers
