Hi Mike,
Yes, my suggestion was only for the logo. The IE-gap you mean is this
one, isn't it
<http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/css-discuss/images/screenshot-robotics.gif>?
;-)
I was already trying to get a finger behind, was just as far in my
analyses as you are describing ... then I had other things to do.
Back on screen, it seems it can be arranged with some { position:
relative; }'s too.
New testpage

:-)
* General method I try: if I've found the culprit, I give it a
{position:relative;}; as you did.
* Often a {position:relative;} for the containing <div> (wrapper) is
needed too. Here it works!
* If this doesn't work, try one step upwards: give the container of
the container a {position:relative;}. And so on until the <body>!
* Giving the boxes a tmp {border: 1px dashed red;} (& other colors)
is also helping a lot for the diagnose.
Greetings,
francky
