position CSS 'absolute' do not work in Dialog()

[amn31]

An "absolute" div should be printed outside the Dialog according to the following code. In fact, the div remains inside the Dialog.

<div id="DIALOG">

<p>Welcome</p> <div id="red">RED</div>

</div>

$("#DIALOG").dialog({

title: 'DIV absolute'

}); $("#red").css({

position : 'absolute', background : '#ff0000', height : '200px', width : '100px'

});

position: absolute doesn't do much without actually setting the position, it just takes the element out of the flow. Also, note that dialogs have overflow: hidden applied.
