------------------------------- layout ----------------------------- 

Notes:

Do not mix px widths with % widths for margins, borders or padding because 
the total box width = set width + padding + border.  (It helps if you can add them together)

The box model hack is used to fix an bug in IE5-Win ...for an explanation from the guy that
wrote it go to http://www.tantek.com/CSS/Examples/boxmodelhack.html

IE6-Win will behave like IE5-Win  if you include <?xml version="1.0"?>  It is apparently
unneccessary so leave it out!

Left Col Widths:
 |  pad   |         width        |  pad   | 				
 ------------------------------------------					
 |   0    |          25%         |   0    |	
 
Center Margins:
 |  marg  |         width        |  marg  | 
 ------------------------------------------
 |   25%  |        (auto)        |   25%  |

Right Col Widths:
 |  pad   |         width        |  pad   | 				
 ------------------------------------------					
 |  1.5%  |          22%         |  1.5%  |				total width= 25%
