    relative positioned layer problem

    The site is http://www.evocreative.com/easternbabes
    I have set the layer #nav to relative positioning and placed mark up <div id="nav"></div> right after the main content div. I wanted it to render relative to the top left corner of this div. I can't understand why it is rendering above it. Anyone know what I am doing wrong? Obviously I am not understanding something pretty basic.

    CSS:

    Code:
    body {
	margin-left: 0px;
	margin-top: 0px;
	margin-right: 0px;
	margin-bottom: 0px;
}

#wrapper {
	font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	width: 800px;
	margin-top: 0px;
	margin-right: auto;
	margin-bottom: 0px;
	margin-left: auto;
}
#content {
	font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	margin: 0px;
	padding: 0px;
	height: auto;
	width: 800px;
}
#top {
	margin: 0px;
	height: 265px;
	width: 100%;
}
#top #header {
	height: 64px;
	border-top-color: #D30D0F;
	border-bottom-color: #D30D0F;
	border-top-style: solid;
	border-bottom-style: solid;
	border-bottom-width: 2px;
	border-top-width: 2px;
	background-image: url(images/logo.jpg);
}
#tagline {
	background-color: #D30D0F;
	float: left;
	height: 36px;
	width: 600px;
	border-top-width: 1px;
	border-top-style: solid;
	border-top-color: #FFFFFF;
	padding-left: 200px;
}
#bottom {
	margin: 0px;
	padding: 0px;
	float: left;
	height: auto;
	width: 100%;
}
#bottom #left {
	float: left;
	height: auto;
	width: 183px;
	padding-left: 11px;

    Smile Re: relative positioned layer problem

    A layer, is an absolutely positioned div. Position is taken from the top left of the browser window. You will never get a layer made site to centre in a browser window!
    <div>'s require you to tell them what to do via your styles and can be centred in a browser window.
    Copy and paste the codes below.
    CSS

    Code:
    <style type="text/css">
<!--
body { text-align:center; }
#container { text-align:left; width:760px; margin:0 auto;position:relative;
background-color: #CCCCCC;
 }
-->
</style>
    XHTML

    Code:
    <body>

<div id="container">
<p>this is content<br />
And some more content</p>
<p>and just some more</p>
</div>

</body>
