Can anyone help me create a layout (HTML)

[Sanchez]

I'm trying to create a layout for a website but I'm a little unsure about how I would go about doing it. Below is an illustration of what I'm trying to create.

Simply three columns at the bottom of a page. I understand that I will have to create divs (the green boxes) within another div (the blue box) but how would I go about positioning the three columns? Any help is really appreciated as I'd rather not resort to having to use tables

What i would suggest is create the container div then three nested divs. You should try floating one to the left, one to the right and keep the other centered. The div order might be crucial for getting this right though. Have a play with floating anyways and you should get the desired effect.

Thanks very much for your help with this. You were right, the order of the divs is the key! Got it sorted now though. Again, thanks a lot
