Hello,
as I understand the specs http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visuren.html#x19 an
absolute positioned block element is positioned relative to its parent
element. This is told in the german selfhtml reference, too:
http://de.selfhtml.org/navigation/cs...positionierung
In fact firefox and konqueror do position the block relativ to the window
border. This is explained here, too:
http://www.w3schools.com/dhtml/dhtml_css.asp
Which behaviour is correct?
Here is an example:
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
#header { height: 44px;
border: 1px solid black;}
#copyright { border: 1px solid green;
position: absolute;
right: 12px;
bottom: 0px; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="header">
<div id="copyright">
blah foo text
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
