With the left
menu in a Smallwlki being dynamic (can grow up or down
depending on user's selection) how can one place a box underneath the
menu so that it moves dynamically with the growth of the menu? Is
there
a way to do that w/o hacking the image?
I am no css expert, by any stretch. But, I was thinking if you could
embed both the menu div and the box below the menu div in a parent div
section then both could float within this new box. I don't know if
that
would solve the problem. If it did, I don't know how to do this in the
templates section of SmallWiki.
In SmallWiki you can only define order in that the template
components are generated (as opposed to Pier). You can then position
those components (or boxes) anywhere using CSS.
Boxes in SmallWiki are built like this:
<div id="path">
<div class="begin"></div>
<h1>Path</h1>
<div class="list">
...
</div>
<div class="end"></div>
</div>
If you just put them one after each other the second one will be
places below the first one. If you set a width for "list", they will
be just on the left side and not use up the whole width. In
combination with relative positioning you can then put the contents
over the empty area to get something similar to what we have in Pier.
