OK.
Today's problem for me is fixing a division to the bottom of a web page, or
more precisely ensuring it is always below another element.

I can do it with position:fixed;  but then I find myself making assumptions
about how large the viewport of the user is going to be, and putting it xxx
pixels down the page.

I'll probably find the answer through Google in a few minutes... but ...

I've just re-read that. You weren't looking for a Javascript solution, were 
ya!

A CSS solution could involve a double wrap. If element A must always be below 
element B, wrap both within element C and use overflow if necessary.

The other alternative is to consider putting the division at the SIDE of the 
webpage instead using float.

[div] element C
[div] open element A
[/div]
[div] open element B
[/div] close element C

Any use?
