Hi guys!

I am trying to convert my fixed layout website to fluid layout.
I would like to ask if I can only use a single div in order to contain all my div blocks with fixed layout?

Thanks in advance!

I'm afraid it cannot make your layout really fluid.

Please see my comment to the question.

Even though you can always contain fluid-layout elements in the fixed-layout page (which of course would keep the whole design predominantly fixed layout), the attempt to contain fixed-layout elements in the fluid-layout design would anyway break the layout in case if the browser window sizes less then some of your fixed elements. So, even though it would be possible, it can defeat the purpose of such work. If you want to make the design fluid, you should try to keep all block elements to fluid design of their inner HTML.
