Good afternoon Betsy, It was foretold that on 18/09/2008 @ 08:30:14 GMT-0700 (PDT) (which was 12:30:14 where I live) Betsy would write:

You can use AP but here are some disadvantages of Absolute Positioning: [1]Elements can end up overlapping if due care is not taken - especially when the user dramatically resizes the page. [2]The footer problem. If you have a layout which uses absolute positioning for one of the columns, there is no way of creating a footer that spans the whole of the bottom of the page without risk of it being overlapped by the absolutely positioned column should that column be longer than the non-positioned column. The solution is either to ensure the static column has more content than the absolute positioned one, or to restrict the footer to taking up space at the bottom of the static column rather than spanning the whole page -- Best regards, Lukie ------------------------------------------- Using the best e-mail client: The Bat! version 4.0.18 with Windows XP (build 2600), version 5.1 Service Pack 2 and using the best browser: Opera.
