I told you before, get rid of all the absolute positioning. IE is NOT right, it has numerous bugs with absolute positioning. Make it work in Firefox FIRST, then fix for IE, you'll have an easier time of it.

Totally agree. Let it "breath". Nailing everything down absolutely is generally a bad idea anyhow, as it makes it difficult to allow the design to grow and expand later on down the line. A stylesheet that absolutely positions everything is like a boss that attempts to micro-manage all of your activities. When you take HTML elements out of the flow, they lose some of their ability to do their job effectively.

Use the normal document flow and learn to use floats to put things where you want them. Absolute positioning, for the most part, only needs to be used under certain situations.
