I have a web page like the following one:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8">
        <title>Title</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <header>
            <span>Logo</span>
            <nav>Navigation</nav>
        </header>
        <main>
            <h1>Page heading</h1>
            <div>
                Page content
            </div>
        </main>
        <footer>
            Content information
        </footer>
    </body>
</html>

The page structure is similar to one example in the current HTML5 draft: http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/grouping-content.html#the-main-element and I think it is semantically correct.

Now I would like to style this document using CSS. I would like to be the header at the top and footer at the bottom, which is, of course, easily doable. Inside the header I would like to put the logo to the right and the navigation in the center, which is also okay (e.g by using the flexible box layout model, which is in one or the other way supported by modern browsers, or by using floats).

My problems begin when I want to put the main's content heading (the h1 element) visually in the left of the header. I could do with position: absolute but such a layout is not very flexible and would break as soon as the header's or the heading's sizes change. The proposed CSS grid layout http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-grid-layout/ may be able to do exactly what I want but it is, as far as I know, only supported (somehow) in IE 10.

One simple and working solution would be to simply restructure my page:

<!DOCTYPE html>
css html accessibility semantic-markup wai-aria
