Two comments. First, you should never have a space between a number and its units. That could be causing some problems. Say "200px" instead of "200 px". Second, my memory (!) says that Navigator does absolute positioning relative to the BODY, which is incorrect. It should be done (as IE does it) relative to the parent element. Support for absolute positioning in browsers right now is shaky at best, and it isn't a good technique for a site that should have users who use whatever browser they want. It isn't supported at all by any browsers with version <4.0. (I don't think Opera 3.5 does it, but I'm not sure.) It's worth noting that this is part of the CSS2 spec, which was not released all that long ago. David Baron
