I guess you used HTML in your comment and it was auto-removed, but I assume the missing content is p’s? Try clicking the “code” button if you need to insert code in your comments =)

Anyhooo… if I assumed right, this should fix your problem:


#boxes {
position: relative;
...
...
}

#blue p {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
margin-bottom: 0;
}

That is:
You have to set the parent as RELATIVE and the child as ABSOLUTE.
The child will then be absolute positioned relative to its parent.
