I know bits and pieces of CSS well, and large swathes barely at all.

Since I'm reading this via gmail, and it has a similar layout except
it resizes nicely, I did a quick Firebug check to see how they do it.

I would never have guessed. They do exactly what you're doing: use
absolute numbers of pixels. But when I resize, they apparently do
Javascripty magic to rewrite those numbers for the new screen size.
Tricksy hobbitses.

Want to try doing the same? Seems far easier than doing "real"
resizeable layout.
