About NOSCRIPT positionning

[This followup was posted to alt.comp.lang.javascript and a copy was sent to the cited author.]

I'm trying to position a noscript warning using html table tag (this to
be sure it's well visible from within the rest of the page which is
build through css style positionning capabilities), but encounter some
problem from browser to browser. When right under IE6, wrong under NN7,
Mozilla and Opera. How to do ?

Better than any comment, I've made a test page. Feel free to take a look
at
<http://natricity.free.fr/thread_abou...oscript_positi
on.html>.

Do you have an idea ?
Soon

Was your message a followup to another post? If so I didn't see it,
and there was no References header.
And you've screwed your Followup-To header. (Followup-To:

(My server has also never heard of alt.comp.lang.javascript and
neither has Google, does it exist? or did you mean
comp.lang.javascript?)

You have an sbsolutely positioned div containing a table that contains
a document.write; and then after the div you have another table that
contains a noscript element.

It is pure fluke that the document.write and the noscript place their
content in the same place in any browser. You're mixing CSS absolute
positioning and HTML layout tables (spit) and expecting them to line
up across browsers. Not a chance.

Put the noscript element immediately after the script element and use
CSS to suggest the presentation you want.

Followups narrowed to alt.html.
