css only expandable and contractable divs

Im trying to make a page something similar to igoogle.com in which the divs which make up 'widgets' in each column are expandable and contractable as you move the browser window. I need this backwards compatible to IE 6 and supporting the modern browsers too of course. I'm not sure that such a thing is actually possible in IE6 however, at least in css only. Anyone know of a way to do this?

I found this which is a fixed central column and expanding/contracting sides around it: http://www.pmob.co.uk/temp/fixed-center-fluid-sides.htm , but I need all the divs to be contracting as I move the window size.

Thanks for any help or tips!
