I would like to set an element’s position to absolute and have a margin-bottom, but it seems that the margin-bottom doesn’t have an effect.
HTML:
<div id='container'></div>
CSS:
#container {
border: 1px solid red;
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
right: 0px;
width: 300px;
margin-bottom: 50px; // this line isn't working
}
What are you expecting
margin-bottomto do when your element is positioned by its top side?margin-bottomwill only do anything to anabsolutely-positioned element if the element has notopproperty.
