A new Opera positioning bug?

Sent by Blair Millen on 20 August 2004 15:03


Hi Andrew,

Re: [css-d] A new Opera positioning bug?

Many thanks for your speedy and correct response.  This was not a bug in 
Opera but instead my own fault.  Removing the "position: relative" from 
#supportingText did the job perfectly.

Thanks also to Adam Kuehn for his response.

Cheers,

Blair Millen

Your page (in particular the position of the footer div) looks the same to  
me using Opera 7.54 and Firefox 0.9.3. I don't see any evidence of Opera  
positioning relative to the #container div.

Take out the "position:relative" from #supportingText and set 
#footer to  "top:112px". That seems to work for IE6, O7.54 and 
FF0.9.3. You won't need  the StarHtml hack then either.

HTH,
