Actually I solved this one on my own. I'm not sure why but when the item is floated, it must also be declared as display: inline. And for some reason in Safari only when it is declared display: inline, position: relative must also be declared otherwise weird css/ javascript stuff happens. I neglected to mention that all these elements are inside a containing div which is positioned: absolute and that containment div is itself in a containment block which is position: relative. You can see the live site here where I have gotten it working properly in Firefox, IE6/7, Safari:

You should see registration form fields alpha-in and alpha-out as you click on "Sign In". - Ben On Jan 16, 2007, at 9:20 PM, Richard Grevers wrote: > On 1/17/07, Ben Liu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> okay, admittedly this is not really a CSS question, but I was hoping >> someone on this list has come across this or is familiar with the >> problem.
