Css - Position Absolute - Safari 2012-02-13 10:56:07 Reply

Have any of you experienced any similar problems?

Including absolute positioned element in relative positioned parent div and then moving it with margins, works fine in every browser except safari.
The element in safari is moved far more to the left that it shoud be.

Any ideas?
I know it is a common problem, but havent found any real solutions so far.

Thanks

You could always make a browser specific section for that code alone. Adjust it any way you can to make it look right in safari and call it when its needed.

If you are using position:absolute;, why are you positioning it with margins? Use left. right, top, bottom properties to position your element instead.

OMG Mich, it works like a charm. Thanks.
Thought it doesnt matter whether you choose margins or left/right...
