I tried that the last time I had this issue and gave up assuming that
negative margins should not be used. I forget which, but 1 browser
was not having it. I'll take a look over the weekend and see if I can
get it working. I just can't resist ... 10 years ago ...
valign="bottom" ... pixel perfect in all browsers. CSS is great but
it's implementation has been crap.
