[css-d] Absolutely positioned div breaking out of parent in IE

[Hayley Kinash]

I've got an absolutely positioned div inside a relatively positioned div,
but in IE the child div is breaking out of the parent and uses the body as
its parent.  There's a width and a height on the parent div, and all divs
above the parent have position:relative and a width.  It behaves as expected
in FF and Safari.

I can't post the site URL right now, so I'll post code.  Thanks for any
help!

<div id="container">
   <div id="wrapper">
     <div id="menu">
        (inside is Macromedia's mm_menu, which is what is jumping out of the
parent div, but is absolutely positioned)
     </div>
   </div>
</div>

#container {
        margin-left: auto;
        margin-right: auto;
        width: 761px;
        background-color:#ffffff;
        position:relative;
}

#wrapper {
        width:577px;
        float:right;
        text-align:left;
        position:relative;
}

#menu {
        position:relative;
        width:538px;
        height:30px;
        text-align:left;
        padding-left:10px;
        padding-right:29px;
        background-color:#318b4d;
        }
