flexible layer width?

[Lisa Simpson]

Is it possible to force a layer to have a flexible layer width? Imagine
that you have 2 layers side by side, one on the left and one on the right.
The layer on the right you have aligned to the right edge of the browser
window (using the pv7 extension snap layers), and you want the layer on the
left to be aligned to the left edge of the browser window but span over to
the left edge of the layer on the right even when the browser window is
resized - how can this be done?

It's all incredibly simple if you just learn the JavaScript yourself. It's
the difference between learning how to cook and living off fast food :)

It's even easier if you don't use script at all.

Style sheet:

#leftDiv {
position: absolute;
left: auto;
top: 60px;
right: 200px;
}
#rightDiv {
position: absolute;
width: 200px;
left: auto;
top: 60px;
right: 0px;
}


Markup:

<div id="leftDiv">
Left Div Content
</div>
<div id="rightDiv">
Right Div Content
</div>

Okay, I guess what I meant was to learn the tools, not necessarily just the
JavaScript :)
