The CSS top property is used in positioning an element. The top property allows you to specify how far the element is offset from the top of its containing block (for absolute positioning), or from the top of where the element itself would normally have been (for relative positioning).

The 'top' property is used in conjunction with the position property, as well as the bottom, left, and right properties.

Syntax: top: <value>
Possible Values:
  • <length> (i.e. 20px)
  • <percentage> (i.e. 20%)
  • auto
  • inherit
Initial Value: Auto
Applies to: Positioned elements.
Inherited: No
Media: Visual
Example:
div {
  position: relative;
  top: 20px;
  }
