JS scroll bars broken by relative positioning.

Just changing containing div to position relative breaks it.

vs.
[mrsmiff.com ]

The only difference between these two pages is that in the second, the div that contains the absolutely placed div is position: relative.

both are set up:

body->container->content->contentClip->scroll

Unfortunately, this is for a site that has to be centered in the window by spec, no negotiation on that point, nor on the idea that using non-system scrolls is a bit silly.

I don't have the faintest idea of why this would be breaking just because I'm positioning w.r.t to the container div instead of the body.

I recommend popping over to the CSS forum [webmasterworld.com] with this question.

Good luck.
