j960 Tool

j960 is an open source project that aims to bring the power of the 960 Grid System - a flexible layout orientated CSS Framework - to the Joomla! templating community. This project has one product, a Joomla! 1.5 template (we'll look into Joomla! 1.6 when it arrives in a more stable form).
The template is not a complete product, it is a template for a template.
This is not an ordinary template and is not suitable for use on a Joomla! website, it is very much a tool for Joomla! template designers.

I was already familiar with the 960grid standard proposal. My advice for Tingo123 is to take a look at http://gantry-framework.org/ there you will most probably find everything you are looking for. Also worthwhile to pay a visit to is http://960.gs/

Good idea, but unfortunately looks different in IE8 and Mozilla. IE8 won't show rounded corners. But for learning 960 system this solution is very useful.
Owner's reply

To clarify - this is a template for building templates. I included the rounded corners because the look pretty. These a reimplemented via the CSS properties -moz-border-radius (Mozilla specific) and border-radius (CSS3 - not supported by IE).

There are many ways of creating rounded corners. Checkout Microsoft's page about rounded cornders and IE8 http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb250413%28VS.85%29.aspx

I could have used one of these techniques in the template, but this would have made the template overly complicated. Remember this is only an outline for your own templates, this is not a final solution!

His demo is an excellent tutorial illustration for the 960 concept. And, you can download the template to learn how to implement 960 for your own site. Very interesting and informative. Thank you.
