Hi,

I am trying to find examples of sites which use relative positioning instead of absolute positioning for content. I want to provide some real world examples of the practice to some people I am working with here.

Any examples would be helpful!

Thanks!
Tim

I did that on this page. The quote box down at the bottom
is relatively positioned partly out of the red bordered box:

It leaves behind a 'hole' where it came from.
