while coding..

• self: damnit fancy background flourish, why won't you go to your correct position in IE 6?!
• self_2: maybe you should try setting the top: value to a negative number to push it up.
• self: come on, don't be silly. why would they allow negative values for positioning? that would kind of throw logic and structure out the window.
• self_2: well, do *something* before you smash your head into the desk.
• self: *tries it*
• self: ................oh what the- (it worked)
• edit: okay, joe brought up a valid point. sliding animations from off screen in javascript. but damnit, this is just ridiculous!
