How can I align the image to the right? - html

I want my image to float to the right. But if I use the float: right; write a command, it also takes the section with it. See image. The picture is already so far to the right because it is so big. (the rest is transparent).
#second {
background-color: black;
}
.orange {
height: 10px;
background-color: #F54703;
}
#secondBild {
float: right;
}
<div>
<section id="first">
<img src="bilder/Oben_rechtsunten.png">
</section>
<section class="orange"></section>
</section>
<section id="second">
<img src="bilder/Seite_unten.png" id="secondBild">
</section>
<section class="orange">
</div>

I'm assuimg when you state 'it takes the section with it' means that you want the section with id = 'second' to occupy the space and image within it to be pushed to the right. To do this you can set the wrapping div to display: flex then use flex-grow to cause the second section to expand. To move the image to the right within section 'second' you use margin-inline: auto 0; You also have to make the image a block element too. If that's not what you're looking for drop me a comment and I'll edit.
Fully marked up html & css below
div {
display: flex;
}
#second {
flex-grow: 1; /* added this */
background-color: black;
}
.orange {
height: 10px;
background-color: #F54703;
}
#secondBild {
/*float: right;*/
margin-inline: auto 0; /* added this */
display: block; /* added this */
}
<div>
<section id="first">
<img src="https://www.fillmurray.com/200/200">
</section>
<section class="orange"></section>
</section>
<section id="second">
<img src="https://picsum.photos/200" id="secondBild">
</section>
<section class="orange">
</div>

Oh I found a way. I just put the image in the background, like this:
#first{
background-color: white;
background-image: url(bilder/Oben_rechtsunten.png);
background-position: right;
background-size: contain;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
height: 1000px;
}

The float property removes the element from the normal flow of the page,
so the block parent won't wrap the floating content. You can solve this by adding display: flow-root to the parent element to wrap its floating contents. Refer to Block formatting contexts for detailed information.
#second {
display: flow-root;
}
#secondBild {
float: right;
}
Another easy solution if you don't want to use float is adding text-align: right;
to the parent element.
#second {
text-align: right;
}

#img-container {
display: flex;
align-items: right;
}
Use `display: flex;` and `align-items: right;`
<div id="img-container">
<img src="#" id="image">
</div>

How do I create a right aligned logout button?

My top div acts as a logo and has a title. I would like a logout button to be on the right-hand side of the div and text above also right-aligned.
I left out the button/ link as i did not know where to place it.
I'm looking for something like this:
My goal is a logo and, on the right, the logout button with text on the top.
How can I achieve that?
.logo {
overflow: hidden;
text-align: left;
position: relative;
margin: 0px 100px;
height: 60px;
background-color: pink;
color: blue;
font-family: Arial;
}
<div class="logo">
<h1>LOGO</h1>
</div>
You can use flexbox here. Try this out:
.wrap {
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
}
.logo {
overflow: hidden;
text-align: left;
position: relative;
height: 60px;
background-color: white;
color: #1F6C8B;
font-family: Arial;
}
<div class='wrap'>
<div class="logo">
<h1>LOGO</h1>
</div>
<div>
<p>abcdefg</p>
<button>Click It</button>
</div>
</div>
jsfiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/dm198kpx/2/
There are various ways to achieve what you want. I believe the simplest one is with Flexbox:
.flex {
display: flex;
}
.justify-between {
justify-content: space-between;
}
<div class="flex justify-between">
LOGO
<div>
BLABLABLA<br>
<button>Logout</button>
</div>
</div>
Here, flex is a display property that is usually used in container-type elements (like div). It helps to align content. It allows the use of various other properties like justify-content, align-items* and others. In this case, we are using only justify-content, which align direct children on the main axis (the horizontal one by default), with the space-between value, which distributes the content as far as possible - and since we have only two direct children of <div class="flex justify-between">, LOGO and <div>, put the first on the far left and the last on the far right.

I've added the button to what I think is your header? I used the native header tag, but if it isn't your header, you can always replace this with a div with a unique id of your choice. I included position:fixed; in the css, otherwise the button wouldn't stay to the right (you could use float, but it can be problematic imho). Height/colour etc are adjustable of course.
Hope this helps
h1.logo {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
text-align: left;
margin: 10px 100px;
height: 60px;
background-color: white;
color: #1F6C8B;
font-family: Arial;
}
#logout {
background-color: lightblue;
height: 30px;
text-align: right;
right: 40px;
position: fixed;
}
.logo,
#logout {
vertical-align: top;
}
<header>
<h1 class="logo">LOGO</h1>
<button id="logout">Logout</button>
</header>

Why do "negative margin and float applied elements" overlap?

First of all, please look at this code.
I learned that this was a common way to realize liquid layout.
But I can not understand some of this code.
.container {
overflow: hidden;
}
main {
float: left;
width: 100%;
margin-right: -340px;
background: red;
}
.main-inner {
margin-right: 340px;
background: blue;
}
.sidebar {
float: right;
width: 340px;
background: green;
}
<div class="container">
<main>
<div class="main-inner">
<p class="main-title">Main</p>
</div>
</main>
<aside class="sidebar">
<div class="sidebar-inner">
sidebar
</div>
</aside>
</div>
Question 1
I understand that the negative margin has the effect of moving an element in the specified direction. However, when you run this code, the main element does not seem to be moving at all. Why is this?
Question 2
Since we set the width of the main element to 100%, I understand that the aside element hits the main element and that the main element and aside element can not be side by side.
So, I think that we prepare a horizontal width that can apply the aside element by applying negative margin, but the background color of the main element is applied in the same way as when the horizontal width is 100%. Why is the background color of the main element not (100% - aside width)? How is this series of rendering done?
Question 3
Which document on W3.org describes these actions? I tried looking, but I could not find any detailed information on them.
thank you.
Let's start by adding the properties one by one and see what is happening.
Intially we have this code with no margin applied and only float elements:
.container {
overflow: hidden;
background:yellow;
}
main {
float: left;
width: 100%;
background: red;
}
.main-inner {
background: blue;
}
.sidebar {
float: right;
width: 340px;
background: green;
}
<div class="container">
<main>
<div class="main-inner">
<p class="main-title">Main</p>
</div>
</main>
<aside class="sidebar">
<div class="sidebar-inner">
sidebar
</div>
</aside>
</div>
It's clear that you made the red element to be width:100% floating on the left and the green one to float on the right with a fixed width. You may also notice that p element is having a default margin that's why the blue is not totally covering the red.
Now if you add negative margin-right you will not move the element or decrease the width but you will pull the content from the right in order to overlap the element. Here is a basic illustration:
.box {
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
background: red;
float: left;
}
<div class="box" style="margin-right:-100px;height:220px">
</div>
<div class="box" style="background:blue;">
</div>
As you can see the blue box is overlapping the red one by exactly 100px because we applied -100px to the margin-right of the red box. Same logic will happen in your case, you applied a negative margin equal to the size of the sidebar so you created the need space to move the sidebar at the same level of the main element.
.container {
overflow: hidden;
background:yellow;
}
main {
float: left;
width: 100%;
background: red;
margin-right:-340px;
}
.main-inner {
background: blue;
}
.sidebar {
float: right;
width: 340px;
background: green;
}
<div class="container">
<main>
<div class="main-inner">
<p class="main-title">Main</p>
</div>
</main>
<aside class="sidebar">
<div class="sidebar-inner">
sidebar
</div>
</aside>
</div>
So the main element is still 100% width BUT the sidebar is overlapping it due to negative margin.
Now the last step is to add the margin inside the main and in this case it will reduce the width of the inner element to make the total (width + margin) always equal to the width of parent element (containing block)
.container {
overflow: hidden;
background:yellow;
}
main {
float: left;
width: 100%;
background: red;
margin-right:-340px;
}
.main-inner {
background: blue;
margin-right:340px;
}
.sidebar {
float: right;
width: 340px;
background: green;
}
<div class="container">
<main>
<div class="main-inner">
<p class="main-title">Main</p>
</div>
</main>
<aside class="sidebar">
<div class="sidebar-inner">
sidebar
</div>
</aside>
</div>
Here is another illustration of margin with block element non floated:
.container {
border: 2px solid;
max-width: 50vw;
margin: auto;
}
.first {
height: 100px;
background: red;
margin: 0 -50px;
}
.second {
height: 100px;
background: blue;
margin: 0 50px;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="first">
</div>
<div class="second">
</div>
</div>
In this case the width is increasing/decrasing due to margin because the logic is always: width + margin = width of containing block.
With elements like float and inline block the logic is the same but we won't have width changes because the width is defined either by the content or explicitly.
.container {
border: 2px solid;
display:inline-block;
}
.first {
float:left;
height: 100px;
background: red;
margin-right:-50px;
}
.second {
display:inline-block;
width:200px;
height: 120px;
background: blue;
margin-top:20px;
margin-right:-100px;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="first">
some text here
</div>
<div class="second">
</div>
</div>
Here the float element has a width defined by the content, the inline-block has a width equal to 200px. The negative margin is creating the overlap and the size of the parent element (the containing block) is equal to width + margins.

The above explanation is very simplifed. Refer to the specification links for a full and details explanation.
The odd placement from <main> comes from a browser css-rule
p {
display: block;
-webkit-margin-before: 1em;
-webkit-margin-after: 1em;
-webkit-margin-start: 0px;
-webkit-margin-end: 0px;
}
You can reset it using a css reset like normalize.css.
However, I recommend using display: flex. Some wonderful resources.
.container {
display: flex;
}
main {
width: 75%;
}
aside {
width: 25%;
}

Horizontal and Vertical Center within 100% CSS3's Viewport Height

I'm using the CSS3's Viewport Height to make a fullscreen section (height: 100vh). Unfortunately, I'm having trouble horizontally and vertically centering elements within a section. I'm attempting to have an image and bit of text within the first section appear in the center of the screen as a group. Thanks for the help!

If you change display to block then you'll need to explicitly set width
Add text-align: center if needed.

Centering two divs containing img and h2?

I am trying to align a small image (logo) next to a heading on my page, and I want these two items to be centered (ideally, the heading would be centered, and the image would be to next to the heading). However, no matter what I try, I can't seem to make it work. Here's a sample:
<h2>Headline</h2>
<img src="logo.jpg">
Now, I have tried a couple of things here. I have tried giving the h2 a div with an id, and the image a div with another id - then giving them set widths and floating them. This at least puts them on the same line, but not in a way I want to.
I also tried to wrap those divs inside another div, like so:
#container {
width: 800px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
#h2div {
width: 40%;
float: left;
}
#imgdiv {
width: 10%;
float: left;
}
That only seems to divide the page so that the header gets 40% starting from the left, and the image gets 10% after that. I tried experimenting with z-index: -1 on the image, and if I then use text-align: center, I can center the headling. But then I have to give the picture a position:absolute or relative, which doesn't work well if the user zooms in or out..
How do I solve this? How do I get either the headline centered, and the image to display right next to it (sort of anchored to the "end" of the headline), or have the two share the center?
how about something like this:
<div id="container">
<h2>Headline</h2>
<img src="logo.jpg">
</div>
#container {
width: 800px;
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: center;
}
#container h2, #container img {
display: inline;
}
and jsfiddle - http://jsfiddle.net/Ygz4t/
img is inline element, so you should assign text-align:center; to the parent block element. Assuming you have such markup:
<div id="imgdiv">
<img src="logo.jpg">
</div>
your CSS could be like following:
#imgdiv {
text-align: center;
}
1) Wrap the h2 and img within a div (lets call it as container) and make display: inline-block to show h2 and img in same line
2) Then using text-align: center
HTML:
<div id="container">
<h2 style="display: inline-block">Headline</h2>
<img src="logo.jpg" />
</div>
CSS:
body {
width:1000px;
height: 2000px;
background: #ccc;
}
#container {
text-align: center;
width: inherit;
}
h2, img {
display: inline-block;
}

CSS text-align on inline-block element

I have this structure:
<div class="father">
This string is left-aligned
<div class="divToCenter" style="display:inline-block;">
//contains other divs.I used inline block for making this div as large as
//content ATTENTION: its width is not fixed!
</div>
</div>
How could I say :
Let me have ONLY the class named "divToCenter" centered in "father" div.
Thanks
Luca
#left {
float: left;
background: #eee;
width: 200px; /* width is optional */
}
#content {
overflow: hidden;
text-align: center;
}
<div class="father">
<div id="left">This string is left-aligned</div>
<div id="content">
<!-- contains other divs.I used inline block for making this div as large as content -->
</div>
</div>
Float the left aligned string or block to the left, then with overflow:hidden on the content it will automatically take up the remaining space and you can text-align it how you want.
Either that or convert the left content to an inline block too so it and content are side by side and you will be able to text-align each inline-block separately.
div.divToCenter
{
margin: 0 auto;
}
.father { text-align: center; }
.father div.divToCenter { margin: 0 auto; }
Update:
.father { text-align: left; }
.father div.divToCenter { width:Xpx; margin: 0 auto; }
