max-width: 800px;
/* Maximum width */
margin: 0 auto; /* Center it */
}
.container .content {
position: absolute; /* Position the background text */
bottom: 0;
/* At the bottom. Use top:0 to append it to the top */
background:
rgb(0, 0, 0); /* Fallback color */
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
/* Black background with 0.5 opacity */
color: #f1f1f1;
/* Grey text */
width: 100%; /* Full width */
padding: 20px;
/* Some padding */
}
