How can I lock a layer box in place?

In frontpage 2003 I'm trying to set some layer boxs on a page. I can put
them where I want them, save it. With Positioning = Absolute. But when you
go to the IE to view it they are never in the same place. How can I lock
them into place?

I have to use the layer boxes to hold the paypal "add to cart" buttons.
They work through a "form" setup.

Layers are absolutely positioned, and they ARE locked in place. That is the
problem with layers - the rest of the page is NOT locked down and moves
around them.

Except for special functions such as drop down menus, layers should be
avoided, and usually another construct will be better. Other constructs
include:

tables
floated containers (such as divs)
margins and padding to apply spacing

If you give a link to the page, it may be possible to more than this generic
advice.
