I am trying to add padding after a <details> tag because the next <p> is basically touching it...
I tried adding padding-bottom but it just makes the grey tag larger and doesn't add space...
The CSS I currently have is:
// Start Drop Down Details
details {
padding: .8em;
background: #353535;
border-radius: 20px
}
summary::-webkit-details-marker {display: none; }
details summary::before {
content:"►";
padding: .7em;
}
details[open] summary::before {
content:"▼";
padding: .7em;
}

Padding adds space between the content and the border i.e. making the grey tag bigger.
Margin adds space between the border of an element and the border of other elements.
If you want to add space between the two elements you will need to add margin.
details {
margin-bottom: 1rem;
padding: .8em;
background: #353535;
border-radius: 20px
}

I am learning web-designing. Trying to replicate a web for practice. Everything seem to be OK.However the space between the nav bar and the first div takes 20px margin space. I want the margin space to be 0px. The css file hold margin as 0px but there is always 20px when I inspect the page. how do i solve this? Thanks in Advance.
You can overwrite the css class that has the 20px margin by using
.className {
margin: 0px !importart;
}
As you suggested i tried the above soln.It didnt work.
I am sending an image and the code.. hope it helps.
.navbar {
padding-top: 15px;
padding-bottom: 15px;
border: 0;
border-radius: 0;
margin-bottom: 0;
font-size: 12px;
letter-spacing: 5px;
}
.navbar-nav li a:hover {
color: #1abc9c !important;
}
the image is for the inspect of the nar bar...where the margin is not accepting 0px.
On this page (http://nate.fm/testing/) you can see that the text link's bottom border gets pushed down. Can anyone tell me where I can change that in the CSS?
You can set the <a> tag to display: inline-block; then reduce the line-height.
Something like this maybe:
.post-content a {
line-height: 15px;
display: inline-block;
}
.post-content a {
/* border-bottom: 3px solid #eee; */
text-decoration: underline;
}
They are using border-bottom along with line-height, the line-height property causes the effect of "pushing" down the border you are mentioning
.post-content a {
border-bottom: 3px solid #eee;
line-height: 160%;
}
Is it possible to add padding before line-break? As in, making from this to this .
Current CSS code:
span.highlight { background: #0058be; color: #FFF; padding: 2px 5px; }
I had to add an extra margin-left:0; to make the two lines start at the same point.
This can be done with pure CSS. Create a solid box-shadow to the left and right of the highlight in the same color (and use margin to correct the spacing). For your case:
span.highlight {
background: #0058be;
color: #FFF;
box-shadow:5px 0 0 #0058be, -5px 0 0 #0058be;
padding: 2px 0;
margin:0 5px;
}
It took some tryouts, but here it is: the single- and multi-line highlighter with additional padding.
HTML:
<h3>Welcome to guubo.com, Gajus Kuizinas</h3>
<p><span>So far you have joined: </span><em>Networks guubo.com</em><ins></ins></p>
CSS:
h3 {
padding-left: 5px;
}
p {
background: #0058be;
position: relative;
padding: 0 5px;
line-height: 23px;
text-align: justify;
z-index: 0;
}
p span {
background: #fff;
padding: 2px 0 2px 5px;
position: relative;
left: -5px;
}
p em {
background-color: #0058be;
color: #fff;
padding: 2px 5px;
}
ins {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
line-height: 23px;
height: 23px;
right: -5px;
bottom: 0;
background: #fff;
z-index: -1;
}
The trick is to style the whole paragraph with a blue background, and only put white background on top of that at the beginning and the end. Doing so assures blue background elsewhere...;)
Two main disadvantages:
The highlighted text has to start at the first line (but does not necessarily have to flow into a second),
The paragraph has to be aligned with justification.
Tested in Opera 11, Chrome 11, IE7, IE8, IE9, FF4 and Safari 5 with all DTD's.
See edit history for the previous less successful attempts.
You can achieve this using just box shadow, with no messy padding or margins.
The trick is to use box-shadow's spread option, and the padding on wrapped inline elements behaves as you expect.
.highlight {
background: black;
color: white;
box-shadow: 0 0 0 5px black;
}
display: block will achieve part of what you want, but of course it will make the span a block element, and so you won't get the wrapping behaviour seen in your example.
Your screenshot holds the clue to what you need to try and do: you need to impose a margin to the left and right on your "normal" paragraph text, and then have the span disregard this (and include its padding), to achieve an "overhang" of your blue highlight when compared to the rest of your text. You can't do that with straight CSS on your span, because it covers two lines and obviously "left" and "right" only refer to the span, and not the individual pieces of text contained therein.
Straight CSS isn't the answer here. You might want to take a look at this question, which uses a jQuery filter to grab the first word in an entity, etc.:
jQuery first word selector
Maybe you can use this technique.

The closest thing, if it really matters that much I'd say is to add display: inline-block;
I am creating a webpage (first time) and i'm following as much of the CSS rules and tags as I can. However, I ran into a problem with white space. I've underlined the first line of text but now the second line seems to have drifted below. Is there a way to make it a bit more snug, i'd like the second line of text to be just below the above line.
body,td,th {
color: #000000;
}
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
padding-top: 6px;
text-align: center;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
#centered
{
width: 800px; /* set to desired width in px or percent */
text-align: left; /* optionally you could use "justified" */
border: 0px; /* Changing this value will add lines around the centered area */
padding: 0;
margin: 0 auto;
}
.style3 {
font-size: 32pt;
color: #666666;
margin-left: 0px;
border-bottom: 3px double;
}
.style5 {
margin-left: 390px;
font-size: 32pt;
color: #CCCCCC;
}
-->
</style></head>
<div id="centered">
<body>
<p class="style3"> FIRST LINE OF TEXT</p>
<p class="style5">INDENTED SECOND LINE</p>
</body>
</div>
</body>
</html>
You need to adjust the line-height. More specifically, add the following declaration:
.style5 {
line-height: 0.72em;
}
If you only want the first line of .style5 to be snug, you need to adjust the top margin. Use this declaration instead:
.style5 {
margin-top: -10px;
}
See fiddle.
Note: You should always validate your markup using the W3C Markup Validation Service and your css using the W3C CSS Validation Service. It will help you a lot when you're starting out.
p.style3, p.style5 {
margin-top: 2px;
margin-bottom: 2px;
}
Play with those two values until you are happy with the result :)
Have you tried the CSS line-height rule?
http://www.w3schools.com/css/pr_dim_line-height.asp
hmm. your code little buggy. first i see that you have div OUTSIDE of body tag.
try to validate your code.
anyway you can change the space weebven lines in the same paragraph with : p {line-height:0.7em} this creates a 7/10 line height of the font size.
if you want to decrease space between paragrapsh you shold change the margin|padding of the paragraphs. p{margin:0 91px 0 37px;padding:0 43px 0 19px}
Problem
I am working on a project to theme a website, but I am not allowed to change the HTML or JavaScript. I can only update the CSS stylesheet and add/update images.
Requrements
I need to style a h3 tag to have an
underline/border after the content.
This h3 will be used multiple times
on the page, so the conent length can
vary
The solution needs to be
cross-browser (IE 6/7/8, FF 3, &
Safari)
Sample Code
<div class="a">
<div class="b"><!-- etc --></div>
<div class="c">
<h3>Sample Text To Have Line Afterwards</h3>
<ul><!-- etc --></ul>
<p class="d"><!-- etc --></p>
</div>
</div>
Sample Output
Sample Text to Have Line Afterwards ______________________________________
Another Example __________________________________________________________
And Yet Another Example __________________________________________________
Notes
I think #sample:after { content: "__________"; } option wouldn't work since that would only be the correct length for one of the tags
I tried a background-image, but if it gave me problems if I gave it one with a large width
Using text-indent didn't see to give me the effect I was looking for
I tried a combination of border-bottom and text-decoration: none, but that didn't seem to work either
Any ideas would be much appreciated!
This will work if class 'c' is always the parent of the h3...
.c {
position: relative;
margin-top: 25px;
border-top: 1px solid #000;
padding: 0px;
}
h3 {
font-size:20px;
margin-top: 0px;
position: absolute;
top: -18px;
background: #fff;
}
It lets the container have the border, then uses absolute positioning to move the h3 over it, and the background color lets it blot out the portion of c's border that it's covering.
try attaching a background image to class c of a repeating underline, then add a background color to the h3 to match the background of the container. I believe that you would have to float the h3 left in order to get the width to collapse. does that make sense?
.c {
background: #ffffff url(underline.gif) left 20px repeat-x;
}
.c h3 {
margin: 0;
padding: 0 0 2px 0;
float: left;
font-size: 20px;
background: #ffffff;
}
.c h3 { display: inline; background-color: white; margin: 0; padding: 0; line-height: 1em; }
.c ul { margin-top: -1px; border-top: 1px solid; padding-top: 1em; /* simulate margin with padding */ }
http://besh.dwich.cz/tmp/h3.html
H3 {
border: 1px solid red;
border-width: 0 0 1px 0;
text-indent: -60px;
}
You need to know the width of the text, but works pretty well.
The only solution I've imagined so far is to make a PNG or GIF image, with 1px height and a very large width (depends on your project, could be like 1x2000px), and do something like this:
h3#main-title { background: url(line.png) no-repeat bottom XYZem; }
where the XYZ you'd set manually, for each title, in 'em' units. But I can't figure out a 100% dynamic solution for this one, without using JS or adding extra markup.
this worked for me
div.c
{
background-image:url(line.gif);background-repeat:repeat-x;width:100%;height:20px;
}
div.c h3
{
height:20px;background-color:white;display:inline;
}
you make the div the width of your content
then you set the background of the h3 to the background of your page. this will then overlap the background imageof the full div. You might want to play with background positioning depending on your image
Can you pad content in the UL tags? If so, this might work:
h3 { display: inline; margin: 0; padding: 0 10px 0 0; float: left;}
ul { display: inline; border-bottom: 1px solid black; }
check source code of: http://nonlinear.cc/lab/friends/elijahmanor.html
then again i have NO IDEA how to control the end of the line.
Assuming that you're working with dynamic content, the best I could suggest is to accept graceful degradation and use a mix of great_llama and Bohdan Ganicky
Imagine:
A long title that will wrap to two lines___________________
and leave you like this in great_llama's solution
and nothing appearing at all with Bohdan Ganicky's solution if ul isn't immediate preceded by ul.
Solution:
.c h3 { display: inline; background-color: white; margin: 0; padding: 0; line-height: 1em; }
.c + * { margin-top: -1px; border-top: 1px solid; padding-top: 1em; /* simulate margin with padding */ }
We care about IE6, but accept that this is an aesthetic touch and IE6 users will not suffer. If you can't get the designer to accept this AND you can't alter the HTML, then do something else (before you find another job ;))
Here's a better answer:
.c {
background: url('line.png') repeat-x 0 20px;
}
H3 {
background-color: white;
display: inline;
position: relative;
top: 1px;
}
Use a small, 1px height, couple px wide image as your underline and occlude it with a background color on your H3.
h3:after {
content: '___________';
}
