The Swiss Army Knife of Layouts

This layout is a basic 3 panel setup, but with some nice features:

the right, content div is a fluid width, although could be fixed by setting non-percent wrapper width.
it has a sticky footer.
It uses a colored left border to avoid the use of a faux column image for the background color.
The #wrapper div can be adjusted to show the background color/image surrounding the main content. The sample layout has height:95%, width:80% with top-margin 10px.
It degrades quite gracefully as browser is resized, although in many cases you may want to put a min-width somewhere to avoid any degrading at all.
