Does absolutely positioned elements not obey an overall div CSS command?
===

For instance, the example below.

Html Code:

	<body>
			<div id="container">
				<figure id="abtex">
					<img src="images/abtex125.png" />
				</figure>	
			</div>
	</body>		

CSS code :

    #container{
		max-width:1050px;
		margin: 0 auto; 
		max-height: 1000px;
	}

	#abtex {
		position: absolute;
		top:-100px;
		left:400px;	
     }

`#abtex` would not follow the `#container` CSS commands such as the `max-width` etc right ?
