Positioning

In CSS2, each box has a position in three dimensions. Three positioning schemes are used for the horizontal and vertical positioning (along the x and y axes) of boxes—the normal flow (which includes relative positioning), floating, and absolute positioning (which includes fixed positioning). The box’s stack level determines its position on the z axis.
