/*XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Primary layout rules XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX*/

/******************************************************************************** 
To adjust the side col widths, or the vertical col dividers, a certain set of values must be changed
all at the same time and by exact amounts or problems will result. Each of these group's member values
have been marked off with comments that start with "Critical...". For example, if the left col width needs
to be changed then all the values marked "Critical left col dimension value" MUST have their pixel values
altered by the same amount. Certain of these left col width values are marked "(moves inversly)", and 
these get changed by the same pixel amount but inversly to the other values. So if margin-left on .outer
is increased by 10px, then the width of .outer must decrease by 10px, and so on.

To change the width of the entire layout, .wrapper, .outer, .float-wrap, and .center all get changed together,
and only after that is it safe to change col or divider widths. Remember, even one small mistake will degrade or 
even break the layout, so be very careful! it's possible to "loosen" the layout so small errors aren't so messy,
but then it becomes hard to finely control text spacing. 

For spacing within the cols, it's best to apply margins on content elements inserted into the cols, 
because padding directly on those col elements will change their widths, breaking the layout. 

Certain hiding hacks have been used extensively in this layout, so here is a quick explaination of them.

The Tan hack:

* html .anyelement {rules read only by IE/Win and IE/Mac}

The Mac-hack:  (first the active comment you are reading now must be closed...) */

/* \*/

/* */

/*...Back in comment mode now. Anything between those two comment lines will be hidden from 
IE/Mac. Don't use any comments within this hack or it will close prematurely and IE/Mac will begin 
reading before it should.

The above two hacks are combined so as to feed rules only to IE/Win. Proper use of backslash escape 
characters inside property names used in the Holly hack can further segregate rules to be read by only 
IE6 from rules for IE5.x/Win. 

These hiding hacks, along with several other fixes, make possible this formerly impossible layout.
It is highly unlikely that new browsers will have any problem with these valid hiding hacks, and 
Microsoft does not plan any browser changes soon that would alter the proper operation of the layout.
