Re: 2 column css layout: click on link in left column, opening the view in the right column

It sound like to me that you've got a simple menu in the left column.
You'd put your $content_for_layout in the right column. Then in your
left column, you'd have the standard hyperlinks like <a href="/mysite/
pictures/pictures">Pictures</a> (I'm assuming that Address, Pictures,
Contacts, and so forth are each a separate class.) Each hyperlink in
the left column will display your desired page in the right column
because that's where you put your $content_for_layout. You could use
$html->link expressions instead of explicit <a> tags, but I find that
rather contrived when the normal hyperlinks are just as easy to type.

By the way if your ever in the market for a really good multi-column
layout, take a look at the jQuery UI Layout Plugin (http://
layout.jquery-dev.net/index.cfm). It's fantastic with all the bells
and whistles you could ever imagine. The instructions for using are
are a bit obtuse, but if take a look at the samples provided, it
becomes really easy to use.
