[thelist] DIV positioning with CSS and NS4 bug

[Jonas Bohlin]

"- try to avoid using inline styles with NN4, keep them all in the head
or in a separate file"

Actually, Inline styles work fine until you nest layers! then you need to
assign stuff like this:

.fooStyle { position: absolute; ... }
.barStyle { position: absolute; ... }

<DIV ID="foo" CLASS="fooStyle">
	<DIV ID="bar" CLASS="barStyle"></DIV>
</DIV>

Mark beat me to the punch because I was looking for that article's link
(and Mozilla crashed). A couple addition's to Mark's article would be:
  - try to avoid using inline styles with NN4, keep them all in the head
or in a separate file
  - you may find appyling "border: none" to layers that aren't behaving
properly will help

Another Mark (Newhouse) has a NN4-friendly template that includes a
footer (also from the CSS Discuss List):
