I have tried for hours to find out why the h1 goes beyond the limits of its parent.
I am trying to keep h1 in two lines of (responsive) text. When you grow the window it goes above the 1600px limit placed on the body.
No matter if I try max-width, overflow, etc that it keeps getting out the box.
Can anybody tell me what am I doing wrong? Im trying to figure out how to stop the h1 to go beyond the above limit.

It is the white-space: nowrap; which prevents your span to break your lines when the content is filled in the parent. Remove that and your code will work fine

If you want your title to return to the line you have to put wrap like this
white-space: wrap;
Like the others have said you need to remove the "white-space", this will cause the text to go in to two lines. If you want to prevent this behavior you will have to change the font-size to be smaller.
After that, remove the margin from ".uno". This will ensure that the h1 element remains in the div. The margin currently pushes it out the div no matter the size of the child, even if the text is responsive.
Another recommendation beyond what you're looking for, instead of wrapping two spans in a single "h1", remove the h1, and replace the two spans with 1 "h1" element and the other with a "h2" or whatever subheader element depending on the size you want. If you are trying to modify the positions of elements(center, left, right) instead of margins I recommend looking into flexbox.
.uno {
border-width: 0 0 1px 0;
border-style: solid;
border-color: #000;
max-width: 1600px;
position: relative;
}
.title_part {
margin: 0 auto;
}
<div class="fulltitle">
<h1 class="title_part" style="display: block; font-size: 5vw;";>stills & moving image</h1>
<h2 class="title_part" style="display: block; font-size: 3vw; text-align: center; ">TECHNICAL PRODUCTION</h2>
</div>
My bad for the formatting, I'm still learning how to post answers on stackoverflow.
I have found that:
(index.html)
font-size placed in span is making it grow endlessly because of the vw.
(style.css)
clamp will make it responsive the way I want to, with a max-limit to whatever I want in the final layout.
Posting what I get as soon as I have it ready
Below what I accept as a solution to the issue I was having with h1.
It does not jump to a new line once I changed the units applied on index.html / .uno / span you can see applied on the very first post, and some tweaking on the css that you can see hereunder.
I did not need white-space.
I welcome any feedback to fine tune it.

Just curious, why when I do print preview the headings are still colored after I've set a class selector to black? If by putting .container within the media rule and setting the color too black, should every text including headings be set to black? I know I can easily add h1, h2... I'm just curious as to why I can not set a selector to a specific color and everything within that selector be set to that during print? Thanks for the feedback!

This question already has answers here:
How can I center text (horizontally and vertically) inside a div block?
(27 answers)
Closed 12 months ago.
It's good on big screens, but when I resize the window to less than 600px, everything aligns on left. I wanted it to break on different lines if the screen size is less + aligned centre. Can you please help, as I am frustrated with this...don't know what am I doing wrong. Also, is there a way to add some breakpoint manually to break text (or other things) on different screens manually.
Thankyou.

h2 is a block level element, whose default text-align is left unless specified.
What's happening is that while h2 block is center-aligned, its text content inside is left-aligned. You simply need to add text-align: center; to your h2 as in the snippet below.

When I am trying to add a border to a div element on my website, I am getting these weird borders.
This is the result I was looking for:
intended result
HTML
<div>
<h1 class="headline">hey</h1>
<div class="buttons">
<a class="filled-button"><p class="filled-button-text">sign up</p></a>
<a class="outlined-button"><p class="outlined-button-text">log in</p></a>
</div>
</div>
CSS
.outlined-button
{
border: 3px solid #fff;
border-radius: 10px;
box-sizing: border-box;
height: 48px;
width: 140px;
}
.outlined-button-text
{
color: #fff;
font-family: Roboto;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 24px;
line-height: 28px;
}
The cause of the border is that a elements have inline flow while the enclosed p element has display block behaviour. Inline elements have no inherited width, this causes the border property to think that the element is 0 px wide, and places a border where it thinks the element is.
A fix for your solution is to use display: block for the link element(https://jsfiddle.net/qtdz296j/1/)
I also attached an alternative solution:
body {
background: #162CEA;
padding: 2rem 1rem;
}
.heading {
color: #FFF;
}
.button {
padding: .5rem 1rem;
border-radius: .5rem;
}
.filled-button {
background: #FFF;
}
.outline-button {
border: 3px solid #FFF;
color: #FFF;
}
<h1 class="heading">hey<h1>
<a class="button filled-button">sign up</a>
<a class="button outline-button">log in</a>
Can't tell anything without the rest of the css and html. Your post starts in the middle of a rule. I'd try playing with it and see what you can change. Make sure your css is affecting the elements you want it to be affecting.
Edit: Try changing your <p> tags inside the buttons to <span>. Or better yet, don't enclose them in anything, and just style the button text directly. I also highly suggest looking into the correct use of <button> vs. <a>. It's a lot easier to make buttons work when they're actually buttons. But changing the <p>s to an inline element like <span> will fix your immediate problem.
this works if you just need a border around that div. cleaned it up a little and added a missing ;. it there are a lot of nested classes and you just need to target the right one. there are only 2 divs in this, so if you are talking about the outer/parent div, just give that an id and target it. Enjoy!

Hello I hope this will help. and a small advice, as you might already know it. do not use a block level element inside a inline element even though you are changing the display property its safer that way.
body {
background: #162CEA;
}
.headline {
width: 34%;
margin-top: 15%;
margin-left: 15%;
margin-bottom: 10px;
font-family: Roboto;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 64px;
line-height: 75px;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
.button {
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
.filled-button-text,
.outlined-button-text {
display: block;
font-family: Roboto;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 1.75em;
line-height: 2.25em;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
.outlined-button-text {
color: #FFFFFF;
}
.filled-button {
background: #FFFFFF;
}
.filled-button,
.outlined-button {
width: 49%;
display: inline-block;
border: 3px solid #FFFFFF;
box-sizing: border-box;
display: inline-block;
border-radius: 0.5em;
}

I am trying to add a button to my simple web page. The button itself looks great, but I am not quite sure how to position it. I would like for it to be centered and positioned below the main text. It currently sits off to the left side. Any idea on how to do so?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
You don't necessarily need a container. Try the following:
.button {
background-color: #3b3d45;
border: 6px solid #fff080;
display: block;
cursor: pointer;
color: #ffffff;
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 12px;
padding: 15px 20px;
text-decoration: none;
margin: auto;
text-align: center;
width: 62px;
}
Auto margins don't apply to inline-block elements.
You can add a container to the buttons and align them to center . see example below
also when you are trying to create a style . try to make them reusable as they can be. One advantage of this is you can write lesser css.
#logo {
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
padding: 10em 0 0.2em 0;
font-family: lato;
}
#sub {
color: #fff;
font-family: lato;
text-align: center;
word-spacing: 5em;
}
.button {
background-color: #3b3d45;
border: 6px solid #fff080;
display: inline-block;
cursor: pointer;
color: #ffffff;
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 12px;
padding: 15px 20px;
text-decoration: none;
margin: auto;
text-align: center;
}
.button:hover {
background-color: #707488;
}
.text-center {
text-align: center;
}
<div class id="logo">
<h1>ERIK SPIEKERMANN</h1>
</div>
<div class id="sub">
<p>Designer Typographer Entrepreneur </p>
</div>
<div class="text-center">
Learn More
</div>
Try putting the Button in a <div> and make text-align:center
<div class="btnContainer ">
Learn More
</div>
<style>
.btnContainer {
text-align:center;
}
</style>
Without extra markup adding the following rules to .button will do the trick
left: 50%;
position: absolute;
transform: translate(-50%, 0);

how do you think this way?
I am trying to move the id="header" up and directly beside the id="main_title"
I dont know why I cant get it to move up anymore.
It seems as if the "main_title" is blocking the way.
HTML code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Programming Tutorials</title>
<link href="stylesheet.css"; type="text/css"; rel="stylesheet" />
<link rel="stylesheet"; type="text/css"; href="http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans|Josefin+Slab|Lato|Bitter|Ubuntu" /> <!-- link for different font-families -->
</head>
<body>
<div class="title">
<p id="main_title"> <strong>Programming Tutorials</strong></p>
<div id="header"></div>
<p id="sub_title"><em>Begin Learning a New Language Today!</em></p>
</div>
</body>
</html>
CSS code:
body {
overflow-y: scroll;
overflow-x: scroll;
background-color: #3399FF;
}
#main_title {
font-family: 'Ubuntu';
font-size: 50px;
color: white;
font-variant: small-caps;
margin: 0 0 0 40px;
display: inline-block;
}
#sub_title {
font-family: 'Josefin Slab';
font-size: 25px;
color: white;
margin: 50px 0 0 100px;
display: inline-block;
}
#header {
background-color: #00eaa8;
width: 750px;
height: 50px;
margin: 0 0 0 550px;
display: inline-block;
}
Add background-color: #00eaa8; to #main_title
ie
#main_title {
font-family: 'Ubuntu';
font-size: 50px;
color: white;
font-variant: small-caps;
margin: 0 0 0 40px;
display: inline-block;
background-color: #00eaa8;
}
AND similar to #sub_title
