How to align content of a div to the bottom

Answer 1

If you're not worried about legacy browsers use a flexbox.

The parent element needs its display type set to flex

div.parent {
  display: flex;
  height: 100%;
}

Then you set the child element's align-self to flex-end.

span.child {
  display: inline-block;
  align-self: flex-end;
}
