I have experimented with absolutely-positioned DIV
layers and found the same problem -- that Netscape
does not always display them correctly. I drove myself
crazy for a while before reluctantly giving up and
going back to tables for positioning elements. And I
don't have time to browser-sniff and redirect to x
different parallel versions of the same site depending
on each browser's peculiarities.
