strange positioning behaviour in divs

[David Ehmer]

Within divs my pages are rendering with the 2nd and subsequent elements
indented slightly. eg the first paragraph, list item or heading is where it
should
be, all the rest in the div (whether they are img, h2, p, li etc) are
indented a small amount. If you have IE5.2Mac see the link below for an
example of this. Note these divs mostly aren't positioned. ie they just
sit in the normal flow.

Seems to be a problem specific to this browser. I have searched extensively
and tried numerous variations but this problem still persists. The page is
xhtml transitional and validates.

Can anyone please help?

Actually, you do have quite a lot of relatively positioned elements,
which I would suspect is the cause. Several browsers have quirky
rendering of relatively positioned elements, MacIE is but one.

Try using static positioning, floats and/or margin properties rather
than relative positioning with top/left offsets. You might get better
results.
