The Holy Grail layout is a famous CSS page layout that has traditionally been hard to implement. It consists of a header, footer, and three columns. The left column contains navigation items, the middle column contains the page contents, and the right column contains ads.

Holy Grail layout example

Implement the Holy Grail layout using just CSS. You shouldn't need to change the HTML too much.

    • Stretches horizontally across the whole page.
    • 60px tall.
  • Columns
