Positioning of stuff in a relative way

[themf]

Hi,

I'm trying to make a page that will become a part of another page, ie.
included in the HTML at a particular point.
How do I do this so all the stuff inside MY page remains intact,
relative to each other, that is, since a lot of the stuff is absolute
positioned, if I say that flower.jpg is at (200,300), it shows up at
(200,300) in the -complete- page instead of in the little bit that is
MY page.
How do I define a separate (0,0) for that bit of the whole page and
make sure all my stuff follows those coordinates?
Cheers,
The NetZiner.

Absolute positioning is actually relative to the nearest enclosing
positioned element, so enclose all your material in a DIV with position:
relative (which just makes it a positioned element but doesn't affect its
actual positioning).
