However that's not really pertinent to the question — this page isn't intended as anything other than an example of the positioning effects I described in the original post: specifically, why the lowest-nested elements in method b are taking their margin-top of -50% to be relative to their grand-parents' measurements and not their relatively-positioned parents. Did you refresh the page? I modified the styles to use em-sizing, so your custom font-size should be less of a distraction. Just to be clear, what I'm interested in is how to center inline content within a fixed-height parent. The typography etc on this page isn't particularly appealing (I'm getting Georgia over here and it's doing my head in — what was I thinking?! ;), but the page's sole purpose is for illustrating the box model problem mentioned above.
