If I have a layer that want to be positioned relative to the other layers what do I put instead of "position:absolute;"

Or you might even just know the button to press!

Which will still not make it position relative to the other element, but if
they are both properly aligned with respect the the parent container, then
their relative locations will be preserved, if you get what I mean

Position: relative

but, that is in relation to the object's PARENT...not necessarily other
layers. If you want one layer positioned in relation to another layer, then
you need to wrap both DIVs in a parent DIV.

It's a very minor quibbly semantic nitpick, though. Hope it didn't
offend....
