RE: Fluid two-column layout in CSS?

Sorry glish.com wasn't able to help you.

I'm not sure I understand.  It sounds like you're describing a table that 
has two rows, where the first row is divided into two columns, and the 
second row contains one cell spanning those columns.

Or do you in fact mean "2x2"?  (which would give us a square with four 
squares inside of it?)
