Getting the button into the top right corner inside the div box

Just add position:absolute; top:0; right:0; to the CSS for your button.

 #button {
     line-height: 12px;
     width: 18px;
     font-size: 8pt;
     font-family: tahoma;
     margin-top: 1px;
     margin-right: 2px;
     position:absolute;
     top:0;
     right:0;
 }
