If I absolutely position a UL for example and float the LIs, they don't *seem* to float in Opera, but when I apply a width to the absolutely positioned UL of 100% then the LIs float normally.

Although the bug itself is solved in Opera 8, a new bug has appeared: the links that used to be buggy are now correctly rendered but unclickable.
