CSS is completely useless for positioning. Whoever designed it has an abstract mind where things like 2 + 2 = Green. It's a silly waste of time to actually design a dynamic site using CSS positioning. Table positioning is much easier to understand, and actually works the way you expect it to. I've seen a lot of things about CSS, one of the central concepts is that it's supposed to "influence" your design rather than make it fixed. That's the biggest problem with CSS - it does not allow you to really fix things the way you want them fixed. I mean, how hard is it to set an anchor point - like the HTML <a> tag - and then reference that point to be a relative distance from? Relative positioning - what a joke. It lets you move things from where it's SUPPOSED to be, rather than from another object? Who's screwed up mind thought this one up? And then it leaves white space where your object was SUPPOSED to be. I've gone back to good ol' tables. At least there's only so many ways to render a table. And firefox and IE look about the same.
