Hello Everyone,
I am using absolute positioning for a forum. The slight variations of pixel display is causing dis-aligned text to components. In other words my input element for the online form is level with the text in one browser but on the other it is a little more than just slightly off. I was thinking about enclosing the entire line that I want to be level in a span element and positioning the span. What do you think of this? Is there a better way to do it?
Sincerely,
Joe

Absolute positioning is overused, in my opinion, and is tricky to get right. I'd advise trying to lay out the elements again, without any absolute positioning.
Without any further details, hard to say what the best approach may be.
