Apparently if you dare use absolute positioning in CSS the various CSS
specs and CSS engines give up on using the height/width/etc of the
block you are absolute positioning to determine the position of
anything else.
However, if you supply the height/width/whatever information in a
parent block, it looks like that will be taken in account.
Sounds like a different face of a functional flaw I've found in using
CSS to determine layout - there is no way to position arbitrary elements
relative to other arbitrary elements when you have "many" elements. (By
"element", I mean an arbitrary blob of rendered content; this could be
a bare text string, a list of one kind or another, an image, or a whole
HTML form.) Or at least, no way without at least n*2 container divs for
m elements, where n > m. :/
