How do you make a 2 colum layout? Options

I have a few sites and I was wondering how do you exactly make a 2 colum layout and code it? I have paint shop pro 8 so how would i make and code a layout using that?

That's called a div/overlay layout. First you would need to make div classes
I.E.

CODE

<style>
.content1 {position: absolute; top:###px; left:###px; width:###px; height:###px; overflow: auto;}
.content2 {position: absolute; top:###px; left:###px; width:###px; height:###px; overflow: auto;}
</style>

(Replace ### with your own measurements.)

Then,

CODE

<div class="content1">
STUFF GOES HERE
</div>
<div class="content2">
STUFF GOES HERE
</div>

And you can design the main background image however you want as long you can position your divs inside the content area on your image.
