Absolutely positioned Child nodes in an absolutely positioned table must be
placed relative to the parent node's coordinates, not relative to the client
area's coordinates. For example, Let say that I want to place a table inside
another table, both having absolute positions. Parent table is placed on
left:100 top:100. If I want to place the second table as a child node inside
the parent table at the coordinate top:10; left:10, the child table must be
placed in fact onto top:110 left:110.

Where should the inner table is placed if the outer table has a caption? That
is, would "top:0" mean "line up with the top of the caption" or "line up with
the top of the first row"?
OS: Windows ME → All
Hardware: PC → All
Both ways are acceptable. I would personally go with top:0. It would be best to
hear others on this.

um... you did not answer my question, really.... The question was "What is
considered the containing block -- the box that includes the table and captions,
or the box that just includes the table?"
Sorry I should have been more descriptive, I think
>"top:0" mean "line up with the top of the caption"
is the way to go.
please be aware that captions in abs. pos tables have a problem: bug 84715
