The bottom property sets the physical distance of how far the bottom content edge of an
element is above the bottom content edge of the containing block.
A containing block is simply an element that contains one or more related elements.
There are three other properties that allow you to set the distance for the left, right,
and top content edges.
All four properties are used in conjunction with the position property.
Note that if the position property is set to the static value, setting the bottom
property has no effect.
auto
The auto value dictates that the browser sets the distance between the bottom content edges.
length
The length value sets the distance between the bottom content edges and can be in any of the
following seven units.
Use the abbreviation.
