CSS float in author

[corck]

Hi,
I am trying to get a two columns css layout in author. I did a little test that works in Firefox, however not in Author. Is there a way to achieve this. I am using the latest Oxygen 10 bundle.

XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="cssTest.css"?>
<root>
<left>
<content>asdfasdfasdaf</content>
</left>
<right>
<content>dsfaasdfasdfasdfa</content>
<content>dsfaasdfasdfasdfa</content>
<content>dsfaasdfasdfasdfa</content>
<content>dsfaasdfasdfasdfa</content>
<content>dsfaasdfasdfasdfa</content>
</right>
</root>

CSS:

left {
background-color:red;
float:left;
width:300px;
}


right {
background-color:#c9c;
float:right;
width:150px;
}

thanks

I just realized that ALL float values are NOT supported.

too bad, its really missing, to make Author a perfect xml editor

Hello,

Yes, the float property is not supported yet as you can see in the table with supported and unsupported CSS properties. We will consider implementing it in a future version.

So it seems still not to be implemented
Are there any other ways to place multiple divs next toe ach other?

Hello,

You could try setting "position: relative" on the parent of the 'div' elements, and then use absolute positioning inside that parent for ordering the divs as you wish.
