Since you are relying on somebody else to do your coding you are 
limited by his capabilities.

The best way to code is to code to the standard, then go back and 
tweak/add hacks to support buggy/quirky browsers (if you wish). There 
is no reason you cannot support every browser, including IE 5 on Mac. 
Your coder just needs to evaluate why he's using the techniques he's 
chosen. Can it be done another way that is better supported by more 
browsers? Or is that the only way he knows how to do it?

I believe IE Mac does support absolute positioning, by the way.
