Given the following tree:
G
P
C
... with the following styles:
G { height:100px }
P { position:relative; bottom:25%; height:0 }
C { position:relative; bottom:inherit }
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visuren.html#position-props states that for a
relative positionined element the computed value of 'bottom' (which is
also the inherited value) is defined in
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visuren.html#relative-positioning However, that
section states that the computed value of 'top' will be -bottom (i.e.
-25%) because 'top' is auto (initial value), but it does not state what
the computed value of 'bottom' is in that case which makes it unclear what
'bottom' for element C means (i.e. is it 25% (leads to 0 here) or 25px).
The releative positioning section should probably be more clear on what
the computed value is here unless I'm missing something.
