position: relative-absolute-static confustion

Sent by Silas Hundt on 16 January 2005 18:06


OK! Don't really know where to start-
I have a div named "container" that has all the content in it.  I have 
it's background set to white, and the background of the whole body to a 
red. What I am trying to do is have two red "banners" or ribbons that 
run down both sides of the page.
The would be easy with just a simple position: absolute, but then I 
also have another position: absolute; object (div) inside of container, 
and this double absoluting was messing things up in browsers using 
gecko..
So now, I have the container relative, and the inner absolute element 
is behaving properly.  BUT! in Safari, the banners work, but in gecko 
browsers, the viewpoint will open in up, and by default have that right 
red banner off the screen.
Somebody, help me.
