Is it possible to position a div over a table?

[aeroswat]

For ease of creation I used tables on a certain area of my site and now I need to be able to position a div over top of the table. What do I need to do in order to accomplish this?

You can do it with absolute or relative positioning, or using negative margins.

 

But whatever you are trying to do, its probably a bad idea. I've rarely seen this to be necessary.

I have seen a div placed over a table before.  Here is an example of it

 

<div align="center">

<table>

<tr>

  <td> blah </td>

</tr>

</table>

</div>

 

or are we talking about something else?
