Can you help me out with the CSS and HTML and try not to use margin property for the search bar.
I would like the search bar to be fully centered in my flexbox.
As mdn says:
The translate() CSS function repositions an element in the horizontal
and/or vertical directions. Its result is a data
type.
So it is necessary just remove property transform: translate(0%, -50%); to place correctly your searchbar:
.search-box{
display:inline-block;
background: lightseagreen;
height: 40px;
border-radius: 40px;
padding: 10px;
}
An example:
body{
font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
.container{
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
align-items: center;
flex-direction: row;
width: 100%;
}
.search-box{
display:inline-block;
background: lightseagreen;
height: 40px;
border-radius: 40px;
padding: 10px;
}
.search-box:hover > .search-txt {
width: 240px;
padding: 0 6px;
}
.search-box > .search-btn {
background: lightgreen;
}
.search-btn{
color: #53e3f8;
float: left;
width: 40px;
height: 40px;
border-radius: 50%;
background: lightpink;
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
}
.search-txt{
border: none;
background: none;
outline: none;
float: right;
padding: 0;
color: white;
font-size: 16px;
transition: 0.4s;
line-height: 40px;
width: 0px;
}
<nav class="container">
<div class="search-box">
<input class="search-txt" type="test" name="" placeholder="Search...">
<a class="search-btn" href="#"><i class="fas fa-search"></i></a>
</div>
</nav>
UPDATE:
When you use double percentage values transform: translate(0%, -50%); in translate function, then the second value is for the height of the reference box:
This value describes two or
values representing both the abscissa (x-coordinate) and
the ordinate (y-coordinate) of the translating vector. A percentage as
first value refers to the width, as second part to the height of the
reference box defined by the transform-box property.

I am trying to keep my Welcome Button to be stuck on my video and to be able to scale and rescale with video as my browser get smaller or bigger, but it keeps drifting away in one direction when I resize my browser. How can I solve this? I want to make the Welcome Button Be stuck to the middle of the video and for it rescale but at the same time stuck to the video center when making the browser smaller and bigger.
Add the following to .Video-Greeting
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
This will make all of it's contents <button> and <video> center perfectly vertically and horizontally.
Next, the button
z-index:1
This allows the <button> to be out of the "flow" and not interfere with the <video> and vice versa. It's like it's on a layer above everything else on the 3rd dimension.
Also, remove top and left properties from <button> as well.

I was told to add a fixed nav bar to the code I had made previously.
Here is the CSS for the code. I reviewed it a lot but can't seem to find the issue with it.
*{
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
body{
width: 100%;
height: auto;
/* overflow: hidden;*/
background-color: #c4a1a2;
}
.container {
position: relative;
text-align: center;
color: white;
}
/* Centered text */
.centered {
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
}
h1{
text-align: center;
color: #ffffff;
font-size: 5vw;
}
h2{
text-align: center;
color: #ffffff;
font-size: 3vw;
}
.table{
width: 100%;
/* height: 00px;*/
}
.table img{
width: 49.5%;
}
.table td{
width: 49.5%;
}
#wrapper
{
width: 99%;
/* max-width: 1500px;*/
min-width: 700px;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
/* box-shadow: 3px 3px 3px #666666;*/
}
.navbar {
/*
overflow: hidden;*/
background-color: #333;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
width: 100%;
}
.navbar a {
float: left;
display: block;
color: #f2f2f2;
text-align: center;
padding: 14px 16px;
text-decoration: none;
font-size: 17px;
}
.navbar a:hover {
background: #ddd;
color: black;
}
Here's the actual code. I think it's an issue with the container class but I'm not sure. When I commented out the Wrapper ID it was like the nav bar didn't even exist.

If you want to have a fixed bar at the top of the page, use this piece of code for the navbar class in your css. With this piece of code, your navbar class will be placed at the top of the page.
.navbar {
background-color: #333;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
.navbar a {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
color: #f2f2f2;
padding: 14px 16px;
text-decoration: none;
font-size: 17px;
}
Better than using a flex display.
If the navbar falls on the rest of the elements, just give the body or #wrapper margin
#wrapper {
width: 99%;
margin-top: 50px;
}
or
body {
margin-top: 50px;
}
I've been playing about with media queries in hopes of getting my head around creating a responsive page.
I seem to have got it working but I've noticed that my hover effects in the navbar <li> items are no longer working when I reduce the page size to meet the media query regarding the smaller screen...is this just something that happens when you reduce the screen size or is it been overridden somewhere?

I apologise in advance if my code looks messy but I've not got my head round that bit yet!
Cheers!
So without a media-query you've set the <li> elements to display: inline-block; Right now your li:hover{transform: scale(1.08);} works fine.
But then in one of your media-queries you set the <li>elements to display: inline;. Not really sure why tough, guess what you want will work with inline-block as well and this breaks the scaling right now. You're hover problem would be fixed if youjust removed the display:inline; line in youre media-query .
Try to add the following keywords: only, screen on the media queries ex:
#media only screen (max-width: 800px) {
Also add the following meta tag on your html head :
<meta name="viewport" content= "width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

I want to insert an image in a placeholder and make it appear on the right. The background of the placeholder is white, the image is also white but I want to add a gray background so it could be visible. Like this:
I thought to add the image as a button but it could't appear just like that. Any suggestions?
You can follow this method for icon background, else use image instead of <i class="fa fa-search"></i> which is a Font Awesome icon.
.form-group {
position: relative;
}
input {
width: 100%;
height: 50px;
border: 1px solid #666;
padding-right: 70px;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.icon {
position: absolute;
font-size: 36px;
top: 0px;
height: 100%;
right: 0px;
line-height: 50px;
background: #666;
text-align: center;
width: 70px;
color: #FFF;
}

Maybe you can consider using a label using fontawesome to display the image.
label {
display: inline-block;
margin: 0;
padding: .1em .3em;
background: darkgray;
color: white;
cursor: pointer;
}
label:after {
content: "\f002";
font-family: FontAwesome;
}
.container {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<div class="container">
<input type="text" placeholder="search...">
<label></label>
</div>
You can achive this with absolute and relative positioning, and FontAwesome.
To use FA, include this:
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
In the <head>. The HTML will be as follows:
<div class="data-path-container">
<input class="data-path" placeholder="From where to grab the data">
<div class="data-path-icon"><i class="fa fa-search"></i></div>
</div>
We'll give .data-path-container relative positioning, and width. For the example, the width will be: calc(30vw + 40px).
.data-path-container {
width: calc(30vw + 40px);
position: relative;
}
The input doesn't need much styling either; Just height, padding and border / border-radius to give it a nice curved edge.
.data-path-input {
height: 1.2em;
width: 30vw;
padding: 5px 30px 5px 5px;
border-radius: 5px;
border: 1px solid #DEDEDE;
}
The .data-path-icon will require quite a lot of CSS:
.data-path-icon {
/* background-color, color, height and width */
width: 30px;
height: 1.5em;
background-color: grey;
color: white;
/* positioning */
position: absolute;
right: 0;
top: 1px;
/* centering the search icon */
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
justify-content: center;
text-align: center;
/* curved edge and hover effect */
border-radius: 0 5px 5px 0;
cursor: pointer;
}
.data-path-container {
width: calc(30vw + 40px);
position: relative;
}
.data-path-input {
height: 1.2em;
width: 30vw;
padding: 5px 30px 5px 5px;
border-radius: 5px;
border: 1px solid #DEDEDE;
}
.data-path-icon {
width: 30px;
height: 1.5em;
background-color: grey;
position: absolute;
right: 0;
top: 1px;
color: white;
display: flex;
border-radius: 0 5px 5px 0;
flex-direction: column;
justify-content: center;
text-align: center;
cursor: pointer;
}
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<div class="data-path-container">
<input class="data-path-input" placeholder="From where to grab the data">
<div class="data-path-icon"><i class="fa fa-search"></i></div>
</div>
Add a background to your button style
background: #ccc url('path/to/your/image') no-repeat center center;
I've been attempting to get multiple buttons to align vertically and horizontally next to each other in the center of the page. This is what I am aiming for: aligned buttons
However, I have only either gotten the images to center, but then they are not horizontally aligned. Or, I have gotten them to align horizontally, but they are not centered. Here is the code I am using on the buttons.
//used to remove the transition item so that the image changes. This is necessary to show image transition on load.
$(".hoverImage").removeClass("transitionHoverImage")
//sets welcome text opacity to 0 so it can be faded in
$('.welcomeText').css("opacity", 0);
//wait a second before attempting to fade text in. Second parameter of "fadeTo" sets opacity to 1 (100%)
$('.welcomeText').delay(1400).fadeTo(800, 1);

Thanks for your help!
Flexbox does this easily. Use display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; on the parent.
div {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
height: 50vh;
background: black;
}
<div>
<button>button</button>
<button>button</button>
</div>
Using flexbox is indeed the simplest solution, but just in case I re-arranged your CSS:
.centerBtns {
position: relative;
text-align: center;
color: black;
background-color: #fdc552;
border-radius: 1em;
border-color: #805300;
box-shadow: 0px 10px 15px black;
z-index: 2;
width: 40%;
font-size: 1.5em;
padding: 1.5em;
line-height: 3em;
}
<div>
<button class="centerBtns"><b>PORTFOLIO</button><button class="centerBtns resumeBtn">RESUME</b></button>
</div>
If you want both buttons to have the same width make sure the width % is large enough to contain the text. Or if not just remove the width property and tweak around with the last 3 properties to get the results you want.
There are some issues with the code you've provided, and I believe that may be making it difficult to isolate the problem.
A stripped down version of what you posted shows how this can be achieved with a combination of relative positioning and flexbox.
body {
height: 100vh;
background-size: auto auto;
background-color: red;
position: relative;
}
.nav {
border: solid 1px blue;
background: rgba(0,0,255,0.5);
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate3d(-50%, -50%, 0);
width: 750px;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
}
.nav__button {
font-size: 44px;
margin: 50px;
width: 250px;
padding: 30px 0;
}
<div class="nav">
<button class="nav__button">Portfolio</button>
<button class="nav__button">Resume</button>
</div>

You can use FlexBox. If you have a few buttons, you can set the "justify-content" property as "center", and set a margin to each button. On the other hand, if you have many buttons, you can set the "justify-content" as "space-around", and remove the margin.
