I am trying to layout the form in an application that I have built.

The basic page layout is (currently - I can change it if I want)

<div id="outer">
        <form ...

                <input type="submit" ...

                <div id="inner"

                        <div id="fieldname"

                                <input type="text" value="..."

My "inner" div is position:relative

As soon as I  do something like this in my css

#inner #fieldname {
        position:absolute;
        top:10px;
        right:20px;
...


Two things happen

a) The original value attribute of the input text field is not displayed
b) Text I enter into the text field does not get used in my application (I 
should use it to update a database).

This happens with both Konqueror and Mozilla Firefox.  Are they strange 
limitations in the use of divs inside forms?
