Hello Gunlaug,
It was foretold that on 8-6-2005 @ 02:07:27 GMT+0200 (which was
2:07:27 where I live) Gunlaug S�rtun would write:
<snipped a bit>
GS> Floating divs affect the flow - AP divs don't.
From the specs:
"In the absolute positioning model, a box is explicitly offset
with respect to its containing block. It is removed from the
normal flow entirely (it has no impact on later siblings)"
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/visuren.html#absolutely-positioned
The main difference between floats and AP is that floats have their
own rules they live by.
I'm sure somebody here will be pleased enough to go in more detail.
Thank you.
It isn't that I don't know the rules for AP and float. That's my job.
I had something like this in mind:
<http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/wd_demo_float_03.html>
...which "appears" to break the rules a little since it's all floats
taken out of the flow.
My whole response should be seen as a *serious* joke, which most "older"
members on css-d took it as, I suppose.
CSS is fun ;-)
regards
Georg
