Chapter 1. Positioning

The idea behind positioning is fairly simple. It allows you to defineexactly where element boxes will appear relative to where they wouldordinarily beor position them in relation to a parent element, anotherelement, or even to the viewport (e.g., the browser window) itself.

Basic Concepts

Before we delve into the various kinds of positioning, its a good ideato look at what types exist and how they differ. Well also need todefine some basic ideas that are fundamental to understanding howpositioning works.

Types of Positioning

You can choose one of five different types of positioning, which affecthow the elements box is generated, by using the position property.

position

Values:

static | relative | sticky | absolute | fixed| inherit

Initial value:

static

Applies to:

All elements

Inherited:

No

Computed value:

As specified

The values of position have the following meanings:

static

The elements box is generated as normal. Block-level elements generatea rectangular box that is part of the documents flow, and inline-levelboxes cause the creation of one or more line boxes that are flowedwithin their parent element.

relative

The elements box is offset by some distance. The element retains theshape it would have had were it not positioned, and the space that theelement would ordinarily have occupied is preserved.

absolute

The elements box is completely removed from the flow of the documentand positioned with respect to its containing block, which may beanother element in the document or the initial containing block(described in the next section). Whatever space the element might haveoccupied in the normal document flow is closed up, as though the elementdid not exist. The positioned element generates a block-level box,regardless of the type of box it would have generated if it were in thenormal flow.

fixed

The elements box behaves as though it was set to absolute, but itscontaining block is the viewport itself.

sticky

The element is left in the normal flow until the conditions that triggerits stickiness come to pass, at which point it is removed from thenormal flow but its original space in the normal flow is preserved. Itwill then act as if absolutely positioned with respect to its containingblock. Once the conditions to enforce stickiness are no longer met, theelement is returned to the normal flow in its original space.
