Hello Everyone,
I am in the process of redesigning my web page and I ran into a
problem while using CSS. I have laid out my web page with auto
margins so that the content is centered. I assume that this will
enable the content to be centered in any resolution which the viewer
may be using. I then tried to position some navigation images on my
web page (using absolute positioning). When the browser is resized,
the images stay in the same place (as they should by the
implementation of absolute positioning).
My question is how do I position the images such that if the browser
window is resized then the images will change position so that they
appear where they should. My test page is at: http://www.bryanrmeyer.net/newpage. If you notice where my navigation
images are (Archives, Projects, etc) then try to resize the browser,
you will see the effect. The header graphic is adjusted but the
images do not move.
Would I be better off using percentage units rather than pixels to
position the elements? Or do I put all of the images in one DIV class
and then position that with respect to the rest of the page?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

That's why the op could have crossposted. Multiposting
breaks up the discussion, and you would read only half of
it. Crossposting lets you benefit from the discussion that's
completely readable in two (or more) newsgroups.

Hello,
Having been a light reader of this ng for a few months now (after
several years absence), I have noticed that absolute positioning seems
to be considered a Very Bad Thing around here. Generally, when someone
posts a question about a design that uses it, they are told not to.
Now, in my ignorance, I don't see what's wrong with it, when used
sensibly. Let me say straight off that I am *not* talking about trying
