 * Hi everyone, first post here!
 * I am putting together a new website for myself at [http://www.microcosmologist.com](http://www.microcosmologist.com)
   and I have a wordpress blog there. What I want to do is adjust my css style sheet
   so that the navigation column with all the links on the right side of the page
   is a fixed width, but the left column, where the blog content is, will scale 
   with the size of the browser window to fill the remaining space. I understand
   that I can set the width of both columns as fixed pixel sizes (as they are now)
   but how can I have the right column fixed and the left column rescale with the
   browser???
 * Thanks in advance for any help!
 * JB
