I did try putting the <p> inside a < div>  that I positioned relative with the 
<p> positioned absolutely.  But I suppose what I need to do is set the content 
container to relative.  But I didn't write the layout CSS (happened before I 
got here) and there is something funky about the nested divs used to arrive at 
the content area.  I'm a little hesitant to mess with them. Any other 
possibilities?

content area

Try making the parent element position relative, and the AF element position 
absolute, bottom:0, left:0.

I need to position a very small text item in the bottom right hand corner of my

I've tried positioning it relative with bottom:0 and right:0, but that didn't 
work.  So then I just positioned it like so:

<p style="position:relative;bottom:0;left:100%;">AF</p>.

This does move it to the right, but not to the bottom of my page content area.  
I can't determine what is keeping it from sitting on the bottom.  Any advice 
appreciated.  Here is my test page:
