Original description: 
I not sure the css spec really says anything about this, but the browsers appear
to all do the same thing. The nested div lines up with the bottom left corner of
padding edge of the outer div.   In FS it lines up with the top of outer div and
is on extreme left.   

<div style="border:red 1px solid">one
  <div style="border:blue 1px solid;position:absolute;">two
  </div>
</div>

My workaround is to put an intermediate div in and set it to position:relative.
 Appears to working OK.
