mpdf - nested divs and positioning

Question

I have 2 divs like the following:

jsFiddle

You can they render, one on top of each other, which is fine.

The problem is the positioning within the PDF.

I have tried in the style position:absolute;top:100px etc, but for some reason I cannot move the div when rendering using mPDF. none of the top, left, right or bottom positioning seem to work. Is this a limitation in mDF?

Any ideas?

Answer 1

well as its a PDF it doesnt work in pixels its in mm but other than that it should work, have a look through the examples that come with it, theres some really good examples of achienving different stuff in CSS

Answer 2

Taken directly from the mpdf site.

Blocks which are defined as position:absolute, position:fixed or float:xxx are only partially supported.
