Syntax-
div.fixed{
position: fixed;
left: 0;
right: 0;
}

d.absolute- The element is positioned relative to the nearest positioned ancestor.
Syntax-
div.relative{
position: relative;
}
div.absolute{
position: absolute;
bottom: 50px;
left: 0;

How to create a Navigation Menu using CSS?

LRM_EXPORT_207556595493866_20190724_1939

Ans

A navigation bar is basically a list of links.

a. Vertical Navbar- li a{
display: block;
width: px;
}
display: block; displays the links as block elements making the whole area clickable. Width specifies the space we require in the link.
The links used are made with the help of <a> tag in HTML.

b. Horizontal Navbar- This has two methods: i. inline elements ii. floating elements.
Inline elements- li{
display: inline;
}
By default, <li> elements are block elements. So display: inline; removes line breaks before and after each item, to display them on one line.
Floating elements Another way of creating a horizontal navigation bar is to float the <li> elements.

Q

Explain Horizontal and Vertical Alignments.

LRM_EXPORT_207556595493866_20190724_1939

Ans

To horizontally centre a block element (like &lt;div&gt;), use margin: auto;
To align text horizontally, we use position- position: absolute;
To align text vertically, we use position- position: relative; using position relative, aligns the text vertically with respect to the values provided.
