About the Layout Generators

Why to develop this tool

Last year I read an article introducing multi-column layout design - the Perfect multi-column CSS liquid layouts design by Matthew James Taylor. It's the best design I ever knew and applied its layout in my website. But the problem came when I needed to adjust the width of one column, the other columns also changed. I didn't know how to figure out the exact css values for the changed columns. The only thing I could do was to test again and again.

This was not the solution. My goal might be develop hundreds of sites in the future. That's why I developed this tool. Since the tool is published on the net, I have received many positive reviews and valuable suggestions. Thanks for all the attentions. The tools will continue refining and improvement.

To credit what I've done is very simple - help to spread the tool. I believe a lot of pepole need it to simplify their work. Please let me know if you use the layout generated by these tools in your website. I may create a link to your site as a demo. Lastly, I would ask a question. Do you think if there's the need to have extra syntax on multi-column in CSS3? I see no because it has not been holy grail.
