CSS position: relative and float: left

Question

Hi,

just a quick question: Could I apply position relative and float left on one element? Does someone use it?

div {
  float: left;
  position: relative;
  top: 0px;
  left: 0px;
  (...)
}

Thanks!

Yes. Try it out.

Answer 2

Yes.

CSS2.1, 9.4.3:

"Once a box has been laid out according to the normal flow or floated, it may be shifted relative to this position. This is called relative positioning"
