Floats with position: relative and percentage-value body margin inaccurately repositioned on page resize

If your document's body uses a percentage value as a left or right margin, then position:relative (even without left/top/bottom/right declared), floated elements inside a containing block with a defined width, will not reposition accurately (or at all) as the page is resized. Reloading the page after resizing fixes the problem - just like a Netscape 4 bug.

This site is no longer maintained. I’m sorry, but it’s just too much work for too little return. You can continue to browse old bug reports, though.
