3 Column Layout with Links at the Side
This is a 3-column fixed-width theme containing a CSS3 gradient header. The navigation is contained within a vertical sidebar on the left-hand side of the page. The HTML validates as XHTML 1.0 Strict according to the W3C Validator. The layout has been successfully tested in all major browsers. The gradient header works on most current browsers with the exception of Opera. However, it degrades gracefully, meaning that if gradients aren’t supported by the user’s browser, a solid background colour will be used instead.
The menu is on the left, and you can use the extra column on the right-hand side for news updates etc.
