Hi guys
i have a test site at :http://www.matrixitcomputers.co.uk/tester/divtest.html

this is just a basic knock up to try something out - i have orgred the HTML so the div of Center (with the main content ) appears before the right and left hand side bars.
The trouble is that they don't sit where they are supposed to do.

The float: right and left both seem to be together instaead of either side of the center dive.

Ideally i would like the div of center before these bars as the Center dive will have the main content for SEO purposes.

Is there a way i can do this so i have the Center div first.

Would anyone be able to tell me where i am going wrong here ?
Any comments / suggestionswould be appreciated.


Many Thanks

Oh sorry, I misunderstood.
I'll look into it some more.

i wonder if this can actually be acheived at all with floats due to their nature?

Waste of time and effort.

Agreed.. however...

Of course it can.
