Unless you can predict the height of absolutely positioned content (you
usually can't) or want to rearrange the document with JavaScript after
initial rendering (nasty), then placing content below absolutely
positioned content should generally be forgotten about.
http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=CssLayouts has a bunch of points to
basic layouts that you can look at. If you have a footer, then you
probably want something based around floats, not abs pos.
