Have you tried a different browser. Could be the browser and not CSS. No surprise there. Doing web program is write once, rewrite for each browser, even with HTML 5

I believe you've fallen into the (non)mythical world of QuirksMode!!
Quick Answer
Make sure you use doctypes for all your documents, then your CSS that shouldn't work but does, won't.
For far more than you want to know see : QuirksMode - for all your browser quirks[^]
QuirksMode
QuirksMode is when the various browsers render the same CSS HTML differently.
But it is more than that: It's related to what a browser should do if the behavior isn't defined or if the HTML would make the page not render (you still want users to see your page even if you mess it up).
Lucky??
It is also what happens when you get lucky and define something that hasn't been implemented properly in browsers (in relation to the W3C def) and the browser makes it work.
Unlucky?
It is when you get unlucky when they browser finally "fixes" your problem and breaks your CSS.

Aside from browser differences and updates, I discovered a while back that the same page in the same browser worked on my box, but on a virtual machine it went to hell. All the input text types decided to huddle (one atop another) in the upper left corner.
The cure I found for this was absolute positioning.

I think that "Give up and Use Tables" would be a great name for a song.

The layout is far too complex for a table.

I am running a survey on the Microsoft Outlook app. Would anyone be so kind as to help me collect data for a personal project of mine by taking the survey?: Outlook Survey[^]

Wait. There are people still using Outlook?
I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

Even worse, it's the outlook app, so you need live tiles, full-screen whitespace, and unwanted updates.

I spent four months in the Spanish mountains sharing, with one other person, what was basically a goatherd's shed - you get used to it and there is something very refreshing about the simplicity of not having space to store junk.

I know several people in the community here that have built or are currently building a tiny house to live in. There's a fun movie to watch ( Tiny-The Movie ) [^] that documents one guy's process of building one (not someone in the community here.)

Looks like it might be fun for a week and then real life sets in and you realize that you don't have enough room to own a cat, never mind swing it.
I watch Tiny House Nation [^] now and again; fascinating.

My wife and I watch the show you mentioned, as well. Very interesting.

I always thought I grew up in a tiny house, now I know I was wrong.
|
|
|
|
|
I live in a 800 sq.feet apartment.
I could reduce that to about 400-500 sq.feet and still be comfortable (I have a big bedroom and bathroom that can be shrunk easily).
Smaller than that is a little bit too small for my (frugal) taste.
I'd rather be phishing!

Do you live by yourself? Any pets?
|
|

No pets, GF does not live with me (she has her own bigger apartment)
She could not handle a small apartment, she needs an office and at least a guest bedroom (and a couple, or more, closets).
The thing with tiny houses is that you restrict yourself in a lot of situations, you cannot have more than 1 or 2 friends over for diner; you cannot have people sleep over; if you live somewhere with more than one season, then you need to have some more space to store clothing (especially winter cloths) and if you are into sport, then you need storage for that also.
