Title: newbie discovers absolute positioning
Opinions welcome:

I'm working on a new job and looking at code on various sites I recently discovered the joys of creating a container that is centred position:relative with margin: 0 auto; in the browser window, and then setting divs within it that are position:absolute ,using top , left, width and height pixel settings, to the container. So far (up to the coloured boxes stage of the proceedings - thanks Russ!) everything seems to be working beautifully.

Is it my imagination or is this method so much easier to work with than fiddling about with floats? I was shocked to see my layout work in all the test browsers, first time.
