As you know, rules from bith stylesheets are applied. I think this
part from 'older.css' is the problem:
#sites {
position: absolute;
background-color: #e7f2d0;
width: 150px;
top: 320px;
left: 1px;
border: 1px solid #aaaaaa;
padding: 10px;
}
As 'compliant.css' doesn't contain a value for 'left', the 1px is
used... And left is more imprortant than right in left-to-right
scripts.
