Absolute Positioning with CSS
An element with position: absolute is positioned at the specified coordinates relative to your screen top-left corner.
You can use two values top and left along with the position property to move an HTML element anywhere in the HTML document.
- Move Left - Use a negative value for left.
- Move Right - Use a positive value for left.
- Move Up - Use a negative value for top.
- Move Down - Use a positive value for top.
Example
You can try to run the following code to implement absolute positioning −
<html> <head> </head> <body> <div style = "position:absolute; left:80px; top:20px; background-color:yellow;"> This div has absolute positioning. </div> </body> </html>
