Re: [Summary-Talk] Summary 3 layout/CSS

[Cameron Knowlton <cameron@xxxxxxxxx>]

PLEASE, no divs... keep tables. but, as Spud requests, no reason to give 
them hard widths.

of course, you can always roll your own...  ;o)  check the docs pages, 
they're full of groovy ideas for creating new templates.
