My Positioning in IE 6 is exactly the way I want it, but when I view the page in my firefox browser things are out of place. When I try and change the css my IE page moves, but the firefox doesn't. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have set the margin and padding to 0. I am new to html and css so I don't know what else to try. Thanks
I have a doc type...
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dt d">
here is my css code...
*{

padding:0;
}
body {
color: #FFFFFF;
background-color: #000000;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
float: none;
width: auto;
position: absolute;
}
.header {

Showing the css is only showing half the picture. We need the whole thing. In any case, if it works in IE but not Firefox then your code is wrong. IE is old, buggy and non-standard. Never initially test in IE. Always, always use Firefox or Opera or anything but IE.

I hit refresh and everything changed to the way I wanted it in Firefox. Is there any explanation for this?
That would only happen because you are refreshing the cache. Otherwise you are viewing the older page from cache.

So I'm starting out with CSS positioning, and it seems to work fine -
until I check in IE6/Win, of course.
I'm trying to use absolute positioning to place a box with my site's
main contens area in middle of my pages, so that there are spaces for
other things on all four sides of the area. CSS declaration:
body {
position: absolute;
overflow: hidden;

Hello,
I have just started messing with absolute positioning on webpages, and
it definitely let's you do some creative things. Well, after much
searching and help, I got the images I was using to overlap correctly.
You can see it on this page:

The images overlap exactly how I wanted and in the right position

Greetings.
I am having troubles using absolute positioning in IE6. When I establish the width as 100%, it's not spanning the entire width of the browser. It works in Firefox, Safari, and IE7.... Just not IE6. Any suggestions?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
