Divs not spacing evenly with margins - html

I am having trouble evenly spacing my divs for Projects, Videos, Portfolios and Contact using margins. I wanted it to start even spacing from the right of the screen. But I didn't use pixel values for spacing because I wanted to avoid hardcoded numbers as much as possible. I also realize that the way I have designed the nav-bar isn't the most efficient.
body {
background-color: black;
margin: 0px;
font-family: "Caveat", cursive;
font-family: "Ubuntu", sans-serif;
}
.title-bar {
height: 14%;
width: 100%;
position: relative;
color: white;
font-size: 30px;
}
.title-icon {
position: absolute;
margin-left: 5%;
}
.title-links {
position: relative;
right: 0px;
top: 0px;
margin-right: 5%;
}
.title-1 {
position: absolute;
right: 0px;
margin-right: 45%;
}
.title-2 {
position: absolute;
right: 0px;
margin-right: 30%;
}
.title-3 {
position: absolute;
right: 0px;
margin-right: 15%;
}
.title-4 {
position: absolute;
right: 0px;
margin-right: 0;
}
.title-link {
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
}
.title-link:hover {
color: rgb(0, 63, 145);
text-decoration: none;
}
<div class="title-bar">
<div class="title-icon">
<h3>Rupak Y</h3>
</div>
<div class="title-links">
<div class="title-1">
<a class="title-link" href="#">
<h3>Projects</h3>
</a>
</div>
<div class="title-2">
<a class="title-link" href="#">

<div class="title-3">

<div class="title-4">

</a>
</div>
</div>

Don't ever use position: absolute for situations like this. This can be done a lot easier and with less CSS:
Use display: flex both on the container and the links div, add margin-left: auto to the links div to align it right and add some margins to the single links to create a distance between them (I used 3vw margin-left, a unit relative to the viewport width). Also, apply display: block to the a tags to make them behave as blocks, and use left and right padding on the container to create the offset of the texts at the left and right side.
body {
background-color: black;
margin: 0px;
font-family: "Caveat", cursive;
font-family: "Ubuntu", sans-serif;
}
.title-bar {
display: flex;
height: 14%;
color: white;
font-size: 18px;
padding: 0 3%;
}
.title-links {
margin-left: auto;
display: flex;
}
.title-link {
display: block;
margin-left: 3vw;
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
}
.title-link:hover {
color: rgb(0, 63, 145);
text-decoration: none;
}
<div class="title-bar">
<div class="title-icon">
<h3>Rupak Y</h3>

Here is a solution using the table tag I adapted from the zer00ne's answer from the this question.
html,
body {
background-color: black;
margin: 0px;
font-family: "Caveat", cursive;
font-family: "Ubuntu", sans-serif;
}
table {
width: 100%;
table-layout: fixed;
}
th {
width: 20%
}
<html>
<head>
<title>Rupak Yeware - Home</title>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="CSS/styles.css" />
</head>
<body>
<table class='table table-striped jambo_table'>
<th class='column-title' style="color:white">Rupak Y</th>
<th class='column-title' style="color:white">Projects</th>
<th class='column-title' style="color:white">Videos</th>
<th class='column-title' style="color:white">Portfolio</th>
<th class='column-title no-link last' style="color:white"><span class='nobr'>Contact</span></th>
</table>
</body>
</html>
Using a column for each of your headers and then evenly spacing them by 20% will allow you keep them all evenly spaced. If you ever add more headers, obviously you need to adjust the percentage they are spaced by.

Multiple Images in an input box (Google Searchbar)

I am fairly new to coding. I am working on recreating the Google home page for The Odin Project and I cannot seem to get the images to sit right in the search bar.
Thus far all of my code and formatting has been done in HTML. I was struggling how to do CSS and push it via Git. anyway...
I got the magnifying glass to sit in the proper spot, but when I went to add the microphone image, it overlaps the magnifying glass. The code is as follows:

I tried changing the class, giving it an id, setting the position to relative and margin right as auto, but i cannot seem to get it to move over to the right side of the search bar.
Additionally, the buttons below the search bar are stuck together. I had each button as its own, but the moment I added them to the same div they have become ajoined and when I try to separate them, the only way i can get them on them aligned is by styling them to the same row. Margin does not help split them apart, I even tried to get them in separate columns no dice. I am really frustrated as i made it pretty far in a day just using HTML. I would like to keep it HTML until I learn how to push CSS to GitHub via Git.
Thank you in advance!!!
You've set the fake-input to position: relative and the image to position: absolute which is already correct, but for the img#mic you need to set it's position right and not left to make it appear in the right side of the fake-input, so I add some style like this
.fake-input img#mic{
position: absolute;
left: unset;
right: 10px;
}
And for the button, it's working if you add the margin for the button like in the updated snippet below

you should give position :relative to class (fake-input);
then give position :absolute to (search.png or mic.

Why do I have scroll bars on my website when there shouldn't be?

I'm making a discord server website for people to find discord servers to join and make friends but, I dont know why my web page has a horizontal scroll bar.
It also has a vertical scroll bar and it shouldn't have that yet
here is my HTML and CSS

how do I fix this this problem it is really bugging me and I cant work out what the problem is?
It's this combination
position: relative;
left: 24.5%;
display: flex;
You've got a block level box, that's margin area is therefore as wide as its container, then it's shifted 24.5% of the width of its container to the right, making its right edge 124.5% from the container's left edge. That's always going to overflow the container horizontally.
I suggest using margin-left instead of left.

Span with red background not visible?

I have a a list of elements, I am trying to display them, if one of the element is clicked, the font weigh changes to bold, and a decoration ( underline ) is added, the uderline thickness is 3px, so to do that I added a span in my link element, I set my link to relative and the span to absolute, and added my other stylings, like that : ( Please go to the header options )
<div class="header__top-bar">
<div class="header__logo-icons">
<img class="header__logo" src="assets/images/cdiscountvoyage-trimmy.png" alt="logo">

<span style=" position: absolute; top: 20px; left: 0px; height: 3px; width: 100%; background-color: red; display: inline-block;"></span>
</a>
<a href="#">
<span style="display: inline-block;">Séjour</span>

</a>

<span style=" position: absolute; top: 20px; left: 0px; height: 3px; width: 100%; background-color: red; display: inline-block;"></span>
</a>
</div>
</div>
Here is the styling ( what is needed I think ) :
.header__options {
display: flex;
width: 100%;
overflow-x: scroll;
margin-bottom: 5px;
}
.header__options a {
margin-right: 20px;
position: relative;
font-size: 14px;
text-decoration: none;
color: #ffffff;
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
font-weight: bold;
}
.header__options a:last-child {
margin-right: 0;
}
Now, I am not implemting the js code to see the click event, I am not just seeing the underline ffect I added, so here is what I have :
But when I inspect my element, I see it is there, but not visible, it is like it has a negative z-index or whatever, the header background is hiding it, but I am not sure.
And this is the mockup, what I am trying to have :
Any help would be much appreciated.
When I ran this code, removing x-overflow: scroll; seemed to work, and I could see the underlines.
Also, consider using pseudo elements (::after, ::before) for these kinds of things. They will make your life easier and the code cleaner.
Also, if you aren't sure why you can't see an element, try moving it around. Change the z-index. Change it's position and display property. These are just easy ways to debug these kinds of errors.
Add padding-bottom to .header__options class. After this i think you can see the under lines.
.header__options {
display: flex;
width: 100%;
overflow-x: scroll;
margin-bottom: 5px;
background: darkblue;
padding-bottom: 10px; /* added pading bottom to get space in bottom */
}
.header__options a {
margin-right: 20px;
position: relative;
font-size: 14px;
text-decoration: none;
color: #ffffff;
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
font-weight: bold;
}
.header__options a:last-child {
margin-right: 0;
}

Span tag is an inline element. You can't fix height and width for this. It always used to wrap the content with content's height and width.
So what you can do here is, add border-bottom style to your a tag. And remove your empty span.
border-bottom: 3px solid red;
Hope this will help you.

centering text vertically in the middle of the page

I would like to center the text on my homepage vertical in the middel of the page. Right now i tried to do this with a percentage, but this isn't the right way because when i open the webpage on my phone or an ipad the text doesn't center. Does anyone know how i can center it the right way?

display offers you 2 options : the table layout or the flex model ( both will push footer down if content grows)
test snippets in full page mode and resize window

add overflow:auto to #content and it will show a scrollbar if needed , so footer is not pushed down.
Try adding this CSS to the text you want centered:
.your_centered_element {
position: absolute;
top:50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translateX(-50%) translateY(-50%);
}
This will keep the element centered.
Read about the transform: translateX(-50%) translateY(-50%); in the MDN docs
Hope this helps!
One solution here is to use viewport-width and viewport-height units:
.anouk {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100vw;
line-height: 100vh;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: center;
}
for centering the text you have to use **margin auto**
css file--
* {
border: 1px dashed black;
}
div >p {
height: 50px;
width: 100px;
border: 2px solid black;
border-radius: 5px;
background-color: #FFD700;
margin: auto;
}
html code
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="stylesheet3.css"/>
<title>Result</title>
</head>
<body>
<div><p >
Anouk Den Haag
</p></div>

Trying to fix gaps in between vertically aligned divs

I am trying to align some divs so that there are 6 ontop of eachover, spreading across the whole height of the page, with text centered inside. An example is here:
http://gyazo.com/871760197e572bd35d79ac3be63d9869
Now nothing I have worked so far works, and it just extends the page. I have made a div (to easily change the text in all of these boxes) which surrounds them, and has a value of height: 100vh;. For some reason, there appear to be gaps in between the divs. I have stripped all the code down to have just the portfolio div, but it still has a gap above it.
Here is the code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<style>
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
top: 0;
}
a {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
text-decoration: none;
color: black;
}
.navigation-bar {
float: left;
width: 350px;
font-size: 40px;
height: 100vh;
text-align: center;
}
.portfolio {
background-color: #909090;
height: 16%;
line-height: 16%;
}
.twitter {
background-color: #a0a0a0;
height: 16%;
}
.git-hub {
background-color: #909090;
height: 16%;
}
.email {
background-color: #a0a0a0;
height: 16%;
}
.linkedin {
background-color: #909090;
height: 16%;
}
.about-me {
background-color: #a0a0a0;
height: 16%;
}
</head>
<body>
<div class="navigation-bar">
<a href="#">
<div class="portfolio">
<h3>Portfolio</h3>
</div>
</a>
<a href="#">
<div class="twitter">
<h3>Twitter</h3>
</div>
</a>
<a href="#">
<div class="git-hub">
<h3>Github</h3>

<div class="email">

Thanks for any help, and I don't have a high enough reputation to post images so I would appreciate if someone could edit it!
Edit: Here is a fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/TobiasYeomans/8ysLounf/
You need to remove the built-in margin from the heading.
JSfiddle demo
h3 {
margin: 0;
}
It's because of the h3 - browsers give it a default margin. So adding h3 {margin:0;} should do what you want.
*or .navigation-bar h3 {margin:0} if you don't want to mess up the rest of your layout.
