Hi, I am trying to position a navigation menu relative the bottom of its parent element. To be more explicit, I would like the bottom left corner of the navigation menu to line up with the bottom left corner of its parent element which is a top banner div. If the user's font settings are larger or smaller than mine I would still like the menu to line up at the bottom. Everything I've read, including w3c statements on the attribute, would seem to indicate that this would be very simple. But all I've been able to manage is to control how the top of the nav menu element lines up with the bottom its parent element, which means it is dependent on browser font settings. Below is the code I am using. If anyone has any insight as to where I'm going wrong I'd be very grateful.
