1) Padding is only placed on the top and/or bottom of the divs. The elements within these divs have padding on their sides. This saves you from any "box model math". Keep in mind, if you add any side padding or border to the div itself, it will be added to the width you define to create the *total* width. You may also choose to remove the padding on the element in the div and place a second div within it with no width and the padding necessary for your design.

2) No margin has been given to the columns since they are all floated. If you must add margin, avoid placing it on the side you're floating toward (for example: a right margin on a div set to float right). Many times, padding can be used instead. For divs where this rule must be broken, you should add a "display:inline" declaration to the div's rule to tame a bug where some versions of Internet Explorer double the margin.

3) Since classes can be used multiple times in a document (and an element can also have multiple classes applied), the columns have been assigned class names instead of IDs. For example, two sidebar divs could be stacked if necessary. These can very easily be changed to IDs if that's your preference, as long as you'll only be using them once per document.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death around the world. Early detection systems would enable us to diagnose the disease at a time when therapeutic intervention would be most effective. Noninvasive breath sampling has the potential to save lives as approximately 86% of lung cancer patients die within five years of diagnosis. Early detection improves survival rate by 50% from stage III to stage I of the cancer. Breath biochemical sensors also have important applications for other diseases. According to the World Health Organization’s latest report on noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), these “diseases are the leading global causes of death, causing more deaths than all other causes combined.” Further research into these noninvasive tests while maintaining the tests’ accuracy and sensitivity could have a major impact on survival rates of other NCDs. Tests of this nature would reduce inequity and provide improved means of treatment for affected individuals regardless of nationality, income, or access to healthcare.
+
-
While invasive techniques, such as immunofluorescence and Western Blotting already exist to detect the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) biomarker, breath chemical tests via genetically modified Escherichia coli bacteria would be a novel and versatile method of lung cancer screening. Twenty-two volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have been found to be unique to the breath of affected patients, creating a viable “fingerprint” for reliable detection (Horvath et al.). We will utilize these concepts to create a biosensor for lung cancer.
+
4) If you prefer your nav on the left instead of the right, simply float these columns the opposite direction (all left instead of all right) and they'll render in reverse order. There's no need to move the divs around in the HTML source.
-
Our team will design a system combining existing BioBricks along with novel synthesized biological parts to create a whole-cell bacterial sensor. We will attempt to create a breath biosensor through noninvasive intervention of lung cancer. Implementing recombinant DNA technology, the bacteria will be able to respond to environmental queues through a receptor-dependent pathway. The construct will fuse a DNA response element with reporter genes to create a portable biosensor. We are currently investigating E. coli promoters or alternative sigma factors in relation to our intended target compounds.

<!doctype html> Untitled Document

The above links demonstrate a basic navigational structure using an unordered list styled with CSS. Use this as a starting point and modify the properties to produce your own unique look. If you require flyout menus, create your own using a Spry menu, a menu widget from Adobe's Exchange or a variety of other javascript or CSS solutions.

If you would like the navigation along the top, simply move the ul.nav to the top of the page and recreate the styling.

Instructions

Be aware that the CSS for these layouts is heavily commented. If you do most of your work in Design view, have a peek at the code to get tips on working with the CSS for the fixed layouts. You can remove these comments before you launch your site. To learn more about the techniques used in these CSS Layouts, read this article at Adobe's Developer Center - http://www.adobe.com/go/adc_css_layouts.

Clearing Method

Because all the columns are floated, this layout uses a clear:both declaration in the .footer rule. This clearing technique forces the .container to understand where the columns end in order to show any borders or background colors you place on the .container. If your design requires you to remove the .footer from the .container, you'll need to use a different clearing method. The most reliable will be to add a <br class="clearfloat" /> or <div class="clearfloat"></div> after your final floated column (but before the .container closes). This will have the same clearing effect.

Logo Replacement

An image placeholder was used in this layout in the .header where you'll likely want to place a logo. It is recommended that you remove the placeholder and replace it with your own linked logo.

Be aware that if you use the Property inspector to navigate to your logo image using the SRC field (instead of removing and replacing the placeholder), you should remove the inline background and display properties. These inline styles are only used to make the logo placeholder show up in browsers for demonstration purposes.

To remove the inline styles, make sure your CSS Styles panel is set to Current. Select the image, and in the Properties pane of the CSS Styles panel, right click and delete the display and background properties. (Of course, you can always go directly into the code and delete the inline styles from the image or placeholder there.)

Backgrounds

By nature, the background color on any div will only show for the length of the content. This means if you're using a background color or border to create the look of a side column, it won't extend all the way to the footer but will stop when the content ends. If the .content div will always contain more content, you can place a border on the .content div to divide it from the column.
