div position relative to a table

[tinapa]

hi folks! how can you position a div tag relative to a table? i am asking this because when i look at my webpage in 1024res it looks ok. but when i look this same page in 1280+ resolution it doesnt look good. the div tag stays on the same spot where you can find it on 1024res. i've tried styling div tag with left:xx% but to no avail.

any ideas guys?

I assume your table is centred (meaning that really it moves around with changing resolutions) and your div is positioned absolutely or relatively with hard top/left coordinates.

It will never work this way. You can move the div relative to the table by:

1. Putting one inside the other. This is definitely a preferred option.
2. Putting them both inside a container that has a common behaviour.
3. Using the same positioning scheme on both elements.

Since we cannot see your code, we cannot fully advise you how to change your code.
