How to place div so that it sizes with parent window?
I am trying to put a website together and have a "content" area on all the pages so that i can have a template for all the other pages. I have it set up except that the new divs i place dont resize properly to the main window, it looks good until i minimize the window then the div (menu and action divs) then they dont resize with it. I am trying to figure out the menu and action divs.

It's kind of hard to interpret what you are wanting exactly.
From what I understand, you are wanting a flexible design that elements will resize depending on the browser window?
Take a look at this JSfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/q62AM/1/
*Thanks to @Jared Farrish for putting together the jsfiddle for everyone to play with.
Basically, with flexible designs you need to use flexible increments such as percentages. You can set min-width
s if you don't wish for your design to squash too small but you should consider setting the min-width
on the parent container.
