In your example, Chien, Perro, Inu are representations of the
concept of 'dog' and therefore would fall into the category of
signifiers (dd).
True: a photograph is not a definition of a dog, however, a
photograph of a dog is not the dog itself, but

Absolute positioning should position from the top/left of whatever
absolute element is containing it, usually this is the body.
However, if you specifiy an element as being absolute but don't feed it
a top/left, it will stay positioned wherever it is on the page (but
outside of the content

A parent can have either absolute or relative positioning to provide
positional context for an absolute child.

As others have said, I like this better than putting the image in the
dt. This works in Firefox (Linux and Windows) and Konqueror, but
breaks in IE 6 (it seems to be ignoring the absolute positioning of
the image). Perhaps someone could expand on this to make it work in
Last year I've done this http://www.bonsoir.cz/obchod/chateau-laroche,

Richard:
Did I just over-geek the whole scenario?
Yes.
That's what we are here for.
A rough example might be: dog, chien, bow wow, image of a dog,
etc...
which are all signifiers for the one signified
Great work!The only (very minor) issue I can see, is the image is not vertically aligned when the product title wraps to two lines, but as you have written, you can adjust the width to suit.Also works in Firefox and Konqueror (Linux).

Hi Micky,
Not sure I follow..
The dt is the signified (the object itself) and the signifiers (dds)
don't so much

I like the solution from Richard, but I don't like having the image

I always use a DL when dealing with scenarios like the one on

I would think that the textual description of the product/item would

If the image were a dt (and I think there's a case that can be made
for this) then it would be a secondary dt.
