1. Is there a way to make a bigger gap between the two columns?

2. Can I make both columns the same height, but still have it stretch when more writing is in it?

3. How would I add a footer to this? I want there to be a separate div below this, but I don't know how to get it under the two columns, since I don't have a defined number of pixels from the top.

Thanks!

if you want this layout to be centered, divs aren't the best to use here, centered tables are much easier to understand if you're completely new at this, you're making is sound like this can't be possible but this is pretty much the basic structure for most of my table designs, navigation column which is smaller compared to the actual main section for entries, and the top and footer, that's IT.

you should do some research on this because its not hard to find, look for basic centered tables structure on google, and you can find tons of tutorials, read it, try it, & practice it to make your skills prefect! youre going to use table, tr, td, column attributes, rows, heights, widths, the commons, top it all off with a sweet image and some style css, AND VOLA!

i'll explain more on this later, gotta run sorry.

What are you talking about? you can easily center a div. I usually have no problems doing so. Just post coding, sometimes you have to use crazy numbers.

I think divs are much easier to get centered than tables, but that wasn't even one of your questions so...moving on.

Having a container for your content would probably solve some of your issues. Just make a div with a white background to encompass all of your other divs. That way you could make both columns stretch but keep the same height and change the width and positioning to add more space between them.

^ Yeah, like make an image the same width (and border) of that container and then set it as your body background into the center and repeating only vertically. :D
