Neither go the way I want them to... Absolute doesn't get it right
over multiple browsers. Relative puts it in the right place, but only
the portion that it is "relative" the style, #wleMenu, is running.
Holding the cursor over any portion OUTSIDE of this block is not
registering.
Mozilla doesn't do anything, IE will fire off an error, when I go past
"the zone" with "object required" (like the scipting isn't even there)
I have the following CSS code.
#wleMenu
{
position: absolute;
left: 1;
width: 245px;
height: 786px;
}
#twoLine {position:absolute;bottom:-325;left:-5;width:850;height:40;}
/* ( I've also tried, {position: relative;bottom-770;left;-85;width:
850;height:40;}
(also have had "px" at the back of the width and height) */

----Fileblock2--- this follows the above... it's the bottom menu I
want to have functionality with when doing a relative position, and
which very little of it works in its current stead.

all in the form of php includes (again, it does not matter if I hard
code it into a file or use server includes ala php--- same result.)
When I use "relative" (the second option), I get what I want. Just
nothing outside of the wleMenu works.
When I use "absolute", the design really sucks, but I get
functionality.
I know it is better to use relative, but how do I get the other damned
options to work the way they are supposed to?
I'm too embarassed to show my site.
