Hi, I'm trying to accomplish something thats kinda like in engadget.com (look below "TopStories")

Except that those boxes are with images and fixed width.

The top-left is with the largest width, top-right is smaller. Lower boxes are of equally fixed width. They are Static! which is just not what I want.

I wana create a a newspaper effect per se.. where articles (or rather article boxes) seem to align automatically and make perfect use of available space.

I want to create div boxes that have the following features: 1-Autoaligns in a specified are of say 400px width. 2-Flexible width (depending on the text inside) 3-Minimum width (If the adjacent right box requires more height, the left-box reduces its width to effectively reduce the other boxes height/width. 4-the next div boxs if necessary returns to the next.

Im assuming this requires some awesome brain and javascript to figure everything out.

Would appreciate anydirection.
