This is a known issue.
One way to fix this would be to use a CSS expression to get the computed
height of the parent, you could try this:
* html .myAbsolutelyPositionedElement {
behavior: expression(
(this.runtimeStyle.behavior="none") && (this.runtimeStyle.height =
(this.parentNode.offsetHeight/2) + "px"));
}
Do *not* replace the "* html" hack with the "_property" hack here, because
IE7 would get that expression too.
