Summary Removing positioning from an element does not relayout properly

Sometimes, removing positioning from an element after layout fails to update properly. In the attached test case, the red box inside the yellow one is initially positioned but the positioning is removed. However it does not reset to its normal position until you resize the window.

This is a Quirksmode bug: Element retains position: absolute after class change Reported on 3 October 2006 http://www.quirksmode.org/bugreports/archives/2006/10/Parent_Element_Sticky_Position.html When changing a parent element's class via JavaScript/DOM, an initial position:absolute declaration sticks. The problem is corrected by applying a position:relative declaration to the parent element's children. Test page: http://indorgs.virginia.edu/betech/bugs/safari-stickyposition.html
