1internet Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I have an issue in IE8 where my div is displayed about 50px closer to the top than in FF or Chrome, or IE9. I think I have narrowed it down to it being the position absolute. I am declaring an HTML5 doctype, but still facing this issue. It also occurs for position: relative. #slider { position: absolute; margin-left: 315px; margin-top: -350px; z-index: 1; } Any easy solution to get around this?

haku Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Explicitly set 'top' (or 'bottom') and 'left' (or 'right') Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/276041-position-absolute-in-ie8/#findComment-1420445 Share on other sites More sharing options...
1internet Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 I tried that, but left won't work for different window sizes. How do I solve that? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/276041-position-absolute-in-ie8/#findComment-1420446 Share on other sites More sharing options...

1internet Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 It works with top, do I really need left or right? Is vertical placement enough? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/276041-position-absolute-in-ie8/#findComment-1420463 Share on other sites More sharing options...
haku Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Test cross-browser. If it is the same, you don't need it. If it's not, you do. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/276041-position-absolute-in-ie8/#findComment-1420464 Share on other sites More sharing options...
