CSS centred layer with two columns

In CSS, no tables.

Take one div/layer and centre it. Then have a left hand column and a right hand column. Nice.

See example

DIV.centrebox {
position:absolute;
left:50%;
top: 0px;
width: 500px;
height: 100%;
margin-left: -250px;
background-color: #336699;
}

DIV.leftcol {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
width: 100px;
height: 100%;
background-color: #cccccc;
}

DIV.rightcol {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 100px;
width: 400px;
background-color: #0099ff;
}
</style>

<div class="centrebox">
    <div class="leftcol">
    This is the left column.
    </div>
    <div class="rightcol">
    This is the right column.
    </div>
</div>
