In firefox you can drag an absolute positioned div around to change its position, you can do this by using the move handle that appears when you click on a absolute positioned div (eg '<div style="position: absolute; top: 20px; left: 20px;">This is some <strong>sample text</strong>. You are using <a href="http://www.fckeditor.net/">FCKeditor</a>.</div>'). In IE however, when you want to drag the div, it appears to behave like dragging an image, so you can only drop it between other content, thereby only changing the DOM position, but not the CSS position.
This problem was first reported as ticket #699, http://dev.fckeditor.net/ticket/699 but has expired, though it still remains with FCKeditor 2.6.4.1 and CKEditor 3.0rc (both in IE7+8)
I opened a new ticket for this, see http://dev.fckeditor.net/ticket/4051
