05 December 2005 where there seems to be 3 superfluous div-elements… I like the article. But it lacks of some explanation about why the chosen layout and those “3 superfluos div-elements”. I think I know why they arent superflous: there is an “axiom” that says: “Don’t use any padding and margin on main layout elements”. If you apply margins and paddings to main layout elements, it’s probably your layout will break in many ways (I have suffered it).
