<h1>Absolute positioning</h1>

<p>
  I am a basic block level element. My adjacent block level elements sit on new
  lines below me.
</p>

<p class="positioned">
  By default we span 100% of the width of our parent element, and we are as tall
  as our child content. Our total width and height is our content + padding +
  border width/height.
</p>

<p>
  We are separated by our margins. Because of margin collapsing, we are
  separated by the width of one of our margins, not both.
</p>

<p>
  inline elements <span>like this one</span> and <span>this one</span> sit on
  the same line as one another, and adjacent text nodes, if there is space on
  the same line. Overflowing inline elements
  <span>wrap onto a new line if possible — like this one containing text</span>,
  or just go on to a new line if not, much like this image will do:
  <img src="long.jpg" />

Use scrollbars to put the light bulbs(💡) in the right place in the following
text:
<div>
  <p>
    The representation of an idea by a light bulb(<span class="bulb">💡</span>)
    is a commonly used metaphor that symbolizes the moment of inspiration or the
    birth of a new idea. The association between a light bulb and an idea can be
    traced back to the invention of the incandescent light bulb(<span
      class="bulb"
      >💡</span
    >) by Thomas Edison in the late 19th century. The light bulb is a powerful
    symbol because it represents illumination, clarity, and the sudden
    brightening of one's thoughts or understanding. When someone has an idea, it
    is often described as a light bulb turning on in their mind, signifying a
    moment of insight or creativity. The image of a light bulb also suggests the
    idea of energy, power, and the potential for growth and development.
