well you apply position relative to the table-cell. What happens in that case 
is undefined. That is what the part of the spec I quoted says.

In Gecko & WebKit, position: relative has no effect on a table cell; thus your 
absolute positioned span takes the width of the viewport (nearest containing 
block in your case).
