X is so far from the left border, Y is so far from the top border, Z is up and down towards the viewing person from the monitor. not literally off the screen, but it helps give the appearance of layering different things and able to overlap. if a different div area has a zindex of 2 and it was positioned a bit over this current one, the other div area would appear ontop for the overlap portion. overflow controls if a scrollbar will appear or not depending on how much content is viewed within the div area. position will position the div area to a specific spot on the screen X number of spaces from the left and Y number of places from the top. width and height are rather self explanitory. |
