Tough question on posiitioning



Hello all,

Please visit:

http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/WherePositionedExactly.html

and then tell me

1- where the absolutely positioned div should be from the top of
document

2- where the static div should be from the top of document


In Firefox 2.0.0.8 and in Safari 3.0.3 (build 522.15.5) for Windows
1- 216px
2- 216px

In Opera 9.24 and Opera 9.50 b1
1- 100px
2- 216px

In MSIE 7
1- 100px
2- 300px

I am very interested to know and understand what parts of the CSS 2.1
spec may cover and explain the reasoning for the positioning of
respective <div>.

The webpage
http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/WherePositionedExactly.html
uses valid markup code, valid CSS code and is a reduced testcase.

Regards,

Gérard
