Jeff,
Positioning something absolutely (or relatively) takes it out of the flow,
which means, among other things, that to the other page elements it doesn't
appear to have dimension. Try ditching the position: absolute; rules and
position your blocks with margin-left etc. instead. If you need the
absolute position, you're going to have to declare your container's height
& width which isn't as elegant as letting the content stretch the container
as large as necessary.
