I'm having some trouble getting a table with width: 100% flush with it's parent div. For some reason a less than 1px gap is seen on either side of the table.
I've tried setting all margins and padding to 0 as well as setting the min and max width for the div but it still won't use all of the available contents. Would really appreciate any help someone can give on this. Here's the css for the table and it's parent div as well as some images of the issue:
.library,
.player,
.playlist {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.playlist {
position: fixed;
border: 1px solid black;
width: 70%;
height: 90%;
left: 30%;
top: 10%;
}
.playlist table {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 100%;
border-collapse: collapse;
}
.playlist th,
td {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
border: 2px solid black;
}

my problem is that I am trying to center a div inside my full-width header like this:
</body>
<!-- the CSS -->
#header {
margin-top: -1em;
margin-left: -1em;
height: 2.95em;
padding:15px 0;
min-width:150%;
background-color: #F4F6F7;
border: 1px solid #E1E1E1;
}
#insideHeader {
border: 1px solid black;
width: 20em;
height: 2.6em;
margin: 0 auto;
}
The result of this code is in the here.
Thanks in advance.
min-width:100%; seem to centre your div...
body {
background-color: red;
margin: 0;
}
#header {
margin: 0;
height: 2.95em;
padding:15px 0;
min-width:100%;
background-color: #F4F6F7;
border: 1px solid #E1E1E1;
}
#insideHeader {
border: 1px solid black;
width: 20em;
height: 2.6em;
margin: 0 auto;
}
<body>
<div id="header">
<div id="insideHeader"></div>
</div>
</body>

As my understanding you are trying to fit the outer box in the window and center align the inner box.
Add/Update following styles
html, body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#header {
margin-top: -1em;
height: 2.95em;
padding:15px 0;
width:100%;
background-color: #F4F6F7;
border: 1px solid #E1E1E1;
}
There are default padding/margin of browser. You need to override those in order to fit your outer box.
Once you do that, you need to remove your negative left margins which were put in order to make box stick to the boundary of window.
Then set the width to 100%.
For reference - http://jsbin.com/lomeganori/1/edit?html,css,output
give
#header
{
box-sizing: border-box;
//and remove height:2.5rem;
}
box-sizing:borderbox will removes all your troubles, and dont give height to parent
that will automatically take the height of the inner div
I've got 3 div's that I want to look like this:
Here's the HTML:
<section class="main-window">
<div id="topdiv"></div>
<div id="middiv"></div>
<div id="botdiv"></div>
</section>
And the CSS:
.main-window
{
vertical-align: middle;
border: 2px solid gray;
border-radius: 5px;
width: 90%;
height: 70%;
background-color: White;
margin: auto;
position: absolute;
top: 0; left: 0; bottom: 0; right: 0;
}
#topdiv {
background-color: beige;
height: 40%;
border: 2px solid black;
}
#middiv {
background-color: lightblue;
height: 40%;
border: 2px solid black;
}
#botdiv {
background-color: lightgreen;
height: 20%;
border: 2px solid black;
}
Here's the fiddle.
Notice that I've added heights to the divs of 40%, 40% and 20% so that they fill the 100% of the parent div. However, after I added a border to each div, the total height is increased slightly beyond the parents boundaries.
My question is: can I set heights of 40% for the two top divs and make the bottom div stretch until the bottom of its parent div?
You should add this css to each child element:
box-sizing: border-box;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
-ms-box-sizing: border-box;
-o-box-sizing: border-box;
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
Working Fiddle
and if you make adjustments in border, it seems to look nice.
Updated Fiddle
include jQuery and write below jQuery for third div
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#botdiv").height($(".main-window").height() - $("#topdiv").height() - $("#middiv").height());
});
I have this situation in which I'm using
height: 100%
on a parent, and in the parent I have this header which is 34px and a container which is 100% again.
For some reason the container (ordered list) is bigger than the parent
Here is a jsfiddle
And here is the css
* {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
section {
padding: 10px 20px 20px 10px;
border: 2px solid black;
}
header {
height: 30px;
background-color: blue;
}
ol {
list-style-type: none;
border: 1px dashed #d2d4d8;
box-sizing: border-box;
background-color: yellow;
padding: 0;
}
li {
display: inline-block;
box-sizing: border-box;
background-color: green;
width: 30%;
border: 1px solid blue;
font-size: 0;
}
Any suggestions why the ordered list is outside the parent section element ?
It's setting the height of the ol to 100% of the parent height, not 100% of the parent minus the 30px for the header. I've gotten frustrated at this before, because in my head I want 100% to mean "Fill to the parent" but it means literally 100%. If you can do css3 stuff, you could change your css to this:
ol { height: calc(100% - 30px); }
You could also do some positioning stuff, but that always gets gross. Here is an untested idea of it:
section { position: relative; }
ol { position: absolute; top: 30px; bottom: 0; }
It doesn't help that your mixing percentages and fixed sizes with your padding. When you do that use box-sizing:border-box; so that the percentage based width and height will take into account the padding and margins and not just add them on the end.
I'm having issues getting my content box to extend to encompass everything within it. shouldnt max-height:100% do this?
http://codepen.io/anon/pen/xujAC
There's the codepen of my code. The red and blue background are for visual reference only.
Shouldnt the blue background (.container) only extend 20px below the blocks?
Pretty new at this and learning as I go. I'm probably missing something easy.
Thanks a lot.
You have the height of your .container set to 100%. In this sample, it will be as tall as its containing element. Because its top is set to 80px and its height is that of its parent, it will extend below the bottom by ~ 80px.
Other things that throw this off are:
floated elements are outside the regular flow which means the containing element can't calculate the height of its children. In this case, I think the simplest fix would be to use position: inline-block; for the children.
The child elements banner and container are absolutely positioned. This also take them outside the flow of the document. In this example, I believe you can get the results you are looking for using relative positioning.
Margins are also throwing off the layout. Here you can using padding in #content to achieve better results.

I am trying to set up a custom toolbar for a textarea, I have the following
html:
<div id="main">
<div id="toolbar"></div>
<textarea></textarea>
</div>
css:
#main {
background-color: #ddd;
height: 400px;
width: 400px;
position: relative;
}
#toolbar {
background-color: #444;
height: 40px;
color: white;
}
textarea {
outline: none;
border: none;
border-left: 1px solid #777;
border-right: 1px solid #777;
border-bottom: 1px solid #777;
margin: 0;
position: absolute;
top: 40px;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
}
It works exactly as I expected in Chrome, but in firefox / ie the text area is not consuming all the available space in the div.
How do I set it up so the toolbar takes up 40px at the top of the div, and the textarea consumes all the rest of the height.
I am sizing this stuff dynamically so can not use a "px" height or width for the textarea.
Codepen here: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/pDgvq
Better Suggestion
Set the textarea's width and height to 100%. Then, give it a 40px top-border that is transparent (color doesn't really matter, actually). Be sure to set box-sizing to border-box. Now position the relative toolbar on a higher z-index - voila.
Pen: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/nFfam
Oldie
Rather than moving the textarea down, move the toolbar up:
#main {
background-color: #ddd;
height: 200px; width: 400px;
position: relative;
top: 40px;
}
#toolbar {
background-color: #444;
height: 40px; width: 100%;
position: absolute;
top: -40px;
}
textarea {
width: 100%; height: 100%;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
Pen: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/mEGyp
Both Firefox and IE9+ support the calc() CSS function (you're out of luck with IE8 though; not sure what you're supporting).
I've added these lines to the textarea's CSS in your pen (updated version):
width: calc(100% - 2px);
height: calc(100% - 41px);
padding: 0;
The padding is just for normalization; you can choose whatever suits your needs, but be sure to adjust the pixel values in calc() accordingly. The 2px for width are to compensate the left and right border; the 41px for height are 40 for the toolbar and 1 for the bottom border.
Add width:-moz-available; height:100%;resize: none; to textarea
textarea {
outline: none;
border: none;
border-left: 1px solid #777;
border-right: 1px solid #777;
border-bottom: 1px solid #777;
margin: 0;
position: absolute;
top: 40px;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0; width:-moz-available; height:100%;
resize: none;
}
UPDATED DEMO
Another Method
You can add a div around textarea and give position:absolute to the div
HTML
<div id="main">
<div id="toolbar"></div>
<div id="container">
<textarea></textarea>
</div>
</div>
CSS
#container{
position:absolute;
bottom:0px;
top:40px;
width:100%
}
textarea {
outline: none;
border: none;
border-left: 1px solid #777;
border-right: 1px solid #777;
border-bottom: 1px solid #777;
resize: none; height:100%; width:99.5%
}
DEMO 2
You can use height and width for textarea in % also apply top to the toolbar div in %
e.g. If top is 10% give 90% height to textarea.
I hope this is your desired result: Demo
#main {
background-color: #ddd;
width: 400px; height: 200px;
padding: 0;
}
div #toolbar {
background: #444;
width: 100%; height: 40px;
}
textarea {
margin: 0;
width: 100%; height: 100%;
}
