Offset?

Discussion in 'CSS' started by rockinaway, Apr 4, 2008.

    I have attached an image.

    The top half of the image shows my current header. The black box is what I want moving. Currently the header is contained within a table.

    The second half of the image shows what I want done. I want the black box to be to have an offset, so that it moves below the nav bar. I kind of want it to float over all the other stuff but at a lower height.

    Any help in how to do this?

    in the CSS for it:
    position:relative;
    top:10px; /* or however far */
    left:0;

    position:relative leaves the 'box' that is used to calculate 'flow' in it's existing spot, so this type of moving doesn't change the rest of the layout - but it does change where it is RENDERED. Usually one shouldn't use position:relative to move an item because it leaves the flow in place - in this case that's EXACTLY the behavior you want.
