You should look at css position: absolute;
with left
, top
, right
, bottom
properties. To change the position later use JavaScript:
var el = document.getElementById("container");
el.style.top = "150px";
el.style.left = "100px";
#container {
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
margin-top: -50px;
margin-left: -50px;
background: orange;
}
<div id="container"></div>
