css problem (prob quite basic)

Car  A4 Avant
I'm having problems getting CSS to do what I want! I'm very new to using it so please be as basic as possible if you can help.

Here's the html code:

<body>
<div id="div-1"></div>
<div id="div-1a"><img src="Images/Common/TL-Background.gif" /></div>
</body>

Here's the CSS code:

/* CSS Document */
body
{
text-align: center;
background-color: #cc0000;
}
#div-1
{
background-color: #FFFFFF;
width: 800px;
height:600px;
position: relative;
}
#div-1a
{
position:absolute;
left: 0px;
top: 0px;
width: 315px;
height: 359px;
}

Here's what I get:

Here's what I want:

right.jpg


Basically I want everything to be relative to the white box.

Cheers,

Nige.
 
Firstly get rid of that position:relative/absolute b****cks.

This would probably help more:

#div-1
{
background-color: #FFFFFF;
width: 800px;
height:600px;
background-image: url('/Images/Common/TL-Background.gif');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position:top left;
}

Then get rid of the img tag in the second div.
 
<body>
<div id="div-1">
<div id="div-1a"><img src="Images/Common/TL-Background.gif" />
</div>
</div>
</body>
 
Ah, I can see what yout doing there, but what happens if I wanted that image say 100px from the left and 100px from the top of the white box. How would I do that.

Furry Cup, thats worked perfectly!:star:
