text justification: bottom?

[salty_dogs]

i have a <div> with a couple of <p> inside it. the div is given a border
and a fixed size. how would i get the <p> to sit at the bottom of the <div>
box?

what i've read is that "vertical-align: bottom" is an inline only property
and therefore doesn't effect the contents of the <div> box. i'd like to
stay away from tables and "valign" if its possible.

vertical-align works if you use display: inline-table

not supported by IE:
div{display:table-cell;vertical-align:bottom;}

this is:
div{position:relative;}
p{bottom:0;position:absolute;}
