#father { position: relative; } #son1 { position: absolute; top: 0; } #son2 { position: absolute; bottom: 0; }
This works because position: absolute
means something like “use top
, right
, bottom
, left
to position yourself in relation to the nearest ancestor who has position: absolute
or position: relative
.”
So we make #father
have position: relative
, and the children have position: absolute
, then use top
and bottom
to position the children.
