Text appearing outside of relative div container
I have some nested div containers built from simple html & css. One of the div tags is positioned relatively within the containing div, which is floated in the page. The text in this child div (with the class StoreMapPOS) is appearing well outside of the container. I've tried various display tags for the child div's class, but it ends up messing up the displayed box's relative position.
The graphic boxes appear as they should, the text "ACK!" appears outside of its containing div tag in FireFox. I haven't tested in IE yet. I would like "ACK!" to appear within the small black box.

Using "overflow:hidden" disrupts the black box's relative placement (moves it outside of the container). I need the black box to remain where shown and the text "Ack!" to appear within the black box.

BTW: If you're looking at my example with IE, it is ignoring the relative placement altogether.
