Well, that's true, but how does that help?
(I guess it means you can make section 2 appear above section 1 instead
of below it - but that's not very helpful.)

The width, margin, padding, etc. properties allow you to adjust the size
of an element and the amount of spacing around it. (When these
properties actually work, of course.) You can also flip an element from
block to inline and back, and control whether an element displays or
not, takes up visual space or not, etc.
In order words, tweak the way the element will display.
What I'm not seeing is how it's possible to have two elements display at
the same horizontal position. (Well, without using tables anyway - and
who the hell wants to do that?) Adding and removing spacing is merely
tweaking HTML's top-to-bottom layout algorithm. I don't know how it's
possible to put stuff side-by-side in violation of that rule.
I also don't see how to overprint multiple things on top of each other
with transparency.

When I read the CSS spec, I didn't see anything that lets you escape the
fundamental top-to-bottom layout algorithm of HTML. Unless I missed an
entire section somewhere or something...
Random question: Given that CSS is supposed to allow you to position
things relative to the viewport, why do so many websites use JavaScript
to make things move back into view when you try to scroll the page?

WTF? Damn, I had to look up what half the syntax means... (Don't people
usually use classes rather than IDs to assign styles?)
OK, well this is the craziest thing I've seen today. I'm not really sure
how all that stuff is even possible; I guess I'm going to have to
investigate...

yes, the page author clearly is missing the point of CSS.
BTW, here's the best CSS resource on the web, learn from it:

indeed, but be sure not to browse it with older IE6.
You can look up the CSS source to learn... :)

Why would you browse *anything* with IE? :-P

No, I've already learned what matters: I cannot possibly compete with
this level of talent. I should just give up now... :-(

Why are you always SO negative?
When I started learning Sandbox 1 and 2 for Farcry and Crysis, I
thought I wouldn't be able to do it, but I persevered and produced a map
that's now had 1,711 downloads. I must have done something right, because I
only had two complaints. One where a guy couldn't install the latest patch
for Crysis, so the objectives wouldn't show up, and one guy that couldn't
load the map through a third party program. To say I'm chuffed is an
understatement. :)
The keyword is: Persevered.
