Hi Everyone,

I need to produce an accessible website and was thinking about which css
layout would be best for people who use screen readers. I want to do a
three column css layout and wondered, where do you put the main content? Is
it first, third, other? Webaim shows two examples of what I mean:

I have been going back and forth on whether navigation or content should go
first...I usually use skip links to help as well.

Cheers
