Button and input elements doesn't get applied css style : background

```

I want to bring output similar to one shown in the figure. I build the table in table2() and build buttons using ButtonDOM().

I want to get the layout shown in figure, so I make the button elements move to right by some pixels. I have a basic question in css,

To make elements move left, right, top, bottom I have to set position property to relative or absolute but when I resize the window, I see elements are rearranged incorrect way. I want to move elements left, right, top, bottom as well on window resize element to show in correct manner. How to achieve this?

I have applied background color to whole div but I see the buttons and date input element appear outside the div, though all these elements are within this div.

Note : I had to position the input date and button elements relative and absolute and the div #buttonsdiv relative just to position elements where I needed
