Tables to CSS

I am trying to figure out how to use CSS to replace TABLEs. I have a 3 column page, where the columns change size when the screen is resized.

However, I cannot figure out how to run a block across the bottom - this will run across all three columns. I can't put it at a fixed position down the screen, because as the columns get narrower (when the screen resizes), then the columns get longer.

Any suggestions, please?

Hi Pete,
Please, present a piece of a HTML-code with a problem.

You can see what I mean at
http://glish.com/css/7.asp

There, they have an example of 3 resizing columns, with a banner ( "LAYOUT TECHNIQUES" ) across the top.

But how can I get the LAYOUT TECHNIQUES section to lie at the bottom of the page, bearing in mind that the column heights are going to change as the screen width changes.

I was just searching for layouts, and found several sites with solutions. I posted the links to some of them in this thread(link below), my posts are at the bottom.
Hint: Make banner/header div box with no border or bgcolor, give it small height dimension and put spacer.gif if necessary

Let me know how it turns out!
