Relative div inside an Absolute div - html

Consider The Following case,
<div id="d1" style="position:relative">
<div id="d2" style="position:absolute">
<div id="d3" style="position:absolute">
</div>
</div>
</div>
By Referring the Link, I Just confirmed that the <div id="d3"> will be relative to the <div id="d2">.Even if we given position as absolute for <div id="d2">. Similarly what would it assumes when we place <div>s like below? (relative <div> inside a absolute <div>)
<div id="d1" style="position:relative">
<div id="d2" style="position:absolute">
<div id="d3" style="position:relative">
</div>
</div>
</div>
can anybody explain this.?

You would expect the relative div d3 to maintain position relative to it's parent. See W3 Specification for Css for more information on how things should be positioned.
I emphasise should as there are quirks within individual browsers for the box model that may have an impact on this.
See the JSFiddle Here for a quick demo of this.

Given the html/markup
<div id="d1" style="position:relative">
<div id="d2" style="position:absolute">
<div id="d3" style="position:relative">
</div>
</div>
</div>
div#d1
div#d1 will remain in the normal flow of the document.
div#d1 has no offset properties (Top, Right, Bottom, Left) and therefore will remain exactly where it is. i.e. it's position will be such as if no position: relative is applied to it.
div#d1 wil act as a new positioning context for div#d2.
div#d2
div#d2 will be taken out of the normal flow of the document.
div#d2 will be positioned relative to div#d1.
div#d3
div#d3 will remain in the normal flow of the document but it's flow is determined now by div#d2.

As #Kami said, div#d3 should be relative to its parent, and is shown here -- I put together a jsFiddle to explain better, and so you can play with different results.

How to use position items in div 90% (or so) of width apart responsively

How would you position elements in a relatively positioned div, and keep them the same distance apart without going out side of the box? I have a relatively positioned div and inside of it is a div(nameTabs) that spans 100% of the width. Inside of that div is taskstabtext, and tasksaddbox. Tasks tab text is positioned where it is and stays there. Button does not. What would be the cleanest way of positioning the two in a flexbox responsive div? Thanks
<html>
<body>
<div id="box" style="display inline:block; position:relative; left:10%; background-color:red;">
<div>
<div class="nameTabs tasksTab">
<div class="tasksTabText">
<p class="tasksBtnText">Name</p>
</div>
<div class="tasksAddBox">
<p class="tasksAddBtn">Last</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

I figured it out. For anyone with a similar issue, just use the justify-content:space-between;rule. It seperates the two and then you can set their margins from the edge.

positiong div according to its placing order issue

I want to position divs according their placing order but they are not following each other. I want second div follow first div right after it(downwards).
<body>
<div id="first" style="display:block;width:20%;height:100px;position:relative;top:50px;border:2px solid green;">
</div>
<div id="second" style="background-color:lightgrey;position:relative;display:block;width:20%;height:30px;border:1px solid red;">
<div style="position:relative;display:block;">
Hello!
</div>
</div>
</body>
You simply should delete the position:relative style in your first of your divs.
<body>
<div id="first" style="display:block;width:20%;height:100px;top:50px;border:2px solid green;">
</div>
<div id="second" style="background-color:lightgrey;position:relative;display:block;width:20%;height:30px;border:1px solid red;">
<div style="position:relative;display:block;">
Hello!
</div>
</div>
</body>

Why do position:relative matters
This type of positioning is probably the most confusing and misused. What it really means is "relative to itself".
If you set position: relative; on an element but no other positioning attributes (top, left, bottom or right), it will no effect on it's positioning at all, it will be exactly as it would be if you left it as position: static;
But if you DO give it some other positioning attribute, say, top: 50p; as you don in your first div, it will shift it's position 50 pixels DOWN from where it would NORMALLY be.
--read about all the position properties here
In response to your question of 'why position:relative matters?'; position relative moves an element into normal flow, allowing it to be positioned on the web page using the offset properties like top, right, bottom and down.

HTML - unable to place a div at the bottom of another div

I was just wondering if something like this would be possible:
<div id="inventory" >
Blabla <BR/>
Blabla
<div id="empty_slots">
<div class="shop_empty_slot"></div>
<div class="shop_empty_slot"></div>
<div class="shop_empty_slot"></div>
<div class="shop_empty_slot"></div>
<div class="shop_empty_slot"></div>
<div class="shop_empty_slot"></div>
<div style="clear: both"> </div>
</div>
</div>
JFiddle link
I'd like to have the #empty_slots div to be placed at the bottom of #inventory (without changing the position to absolute).
So far it only works when I set the position to absolute. But this is then causing issues
when I place more elements to the div. They're all being placed behind the #empty_slots instead of just expanding the #inventory height.
You've got it almost right, you should place the parent (#inventory) relative, which you already have. And place the child (#empty-slots) absolute instead of relative.
You said you didn't want to place it absolute, but without it, you can't achieve what you want. Is there are reason why you don't want it absolute?

Div positioning mystery

Here is an simplified example of my real problem.
<div id="con">
<div id="a"></div>
<div id="b"></div>
<div id="c">
<div id="d"></div>
<div id="e">blablabla</div>
</div>
</div>
Is it possible to put the #a div between #d and #e?

Can I bring the "blablabla" before to the blue div without changing the div structure?
I am not sure about the first part of your question because I don't you if you want to position the divs with position so they are in some kind of order or z-index so they are stacked a certain way.
But the second part is real easy. All you need to do is set the z-index of div#e to something higher then div#a's z-index.
