scrollbars are hidden and the page content is not completely shown - html

Im facing two problems which are related with each other as i can assume. My webpage is not being fully displayed, a lot of content is hidden down and the scrollbar at the right side and the vertical one are not shown. I have tried to solve that with the overflow property in the body, the scrollbar was there but invisible so it didnt help me a lot. I want the content to be visible even though im zooming in(200% or whatever)
here is a snippet of my code
<nav class="sideBar">

thanks everyone!

Well, I'm not sure if this would be correct answer. but I removed the 'position:fixed' property from 'mainContentClient' class and the scrollbar is showing and you can scroll your content. Try it and let me know if it helped :).
.mainContentClient {
top: 0;
height: 100%;
width: 77%;
margin: 0 280px;
}

inside the third row, the cells are colored and to do that I use absolute position.
It works but I don't understand why the yellow doesn't take the entire cell space, there is a white margin between the yellow and the cell border.
Margins are 0.
How it is now vs How I would like it to be:
Why? How can I solve?
Thanks a lot
Set padding of td to 0 should fix the issue.
The correct way:
<table cellpadding="0">

CSS Border doubling with flex

I have a piece of CSS I am working with. Whenever I add the "display: flex" property to .student, the border suddenly doubles. I need the flex property because I want the text to be centered vertically next to the image inside of the .student table data cell. How can I get rid of this pesky double border? The double border goes away whenever I remove the display:flex property, but then the text is no longer vertically next to the image. I've tried whitespace, border collapse, and several others without any luck.

My assumption is that problem arises from clashing between two layout alghorithms, table and flex one. Td belongs to table one and putting flex there just make problems.
So only solution is to wrap td content with div, and put flex onto that div.
table{
border-collapse: collapse;
}
td{
border: 1px solid;
}
.flex{
display: flex;
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<body>
<table>
<th>flex</th>
<th>flex</th>
<tr>
<td class='flex'>...</td>
<td>...</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>...</td>
<td class='flex'>...</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table>
<th>div flex</th>
<th>div flex</th>
<tr>
<td> <div class='flex'>...</div></td>
<td> <div class='flex'>...</div></td>

how to overlap two columns in css

The below picture represents a timeline. Here the task "Exercise" starts from 8:00 to 8:15 and which has been marked with light-blue background color. The other two tasks - first one is "Travel to work" and second one is "Plan day" - are getting overlapped because the former task ("Travel to work") starts from 8:25 to 8:55 and the later task ("Plan day") starts from 8:30 to 9:00. So the overlapping tasks should show as given in the picture.
I tried to implement this using HTML table and css but I am really stuck to move further and its not working the way it is showing in the picture.
<style>
.line{
/* width: 100%; */
border-top: 1px solid black;
/* position: absolute; */
background-color: #ADD8E6;
width: 45%;
height: 30pt;
}
.halfAnHour{
font-size: 11px;
/* text-align: right; */
}

font-size: 10px;
}
.starttime{
text-align: right;
vertical-align: top;
white-space: nowrap;
}
.time{
border-top: 1px solid black;
width: 10%;
height: 30pt;

<td class="time" style="width: 10%;height: 30pt;">8:00</td>
<td class="line" style="width: 45%;height: 30pt;">Excercise</td>
<td class="line" style="width: 45%;height: 30pt;"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="time" style="height: 30pt;">8:30</td>
<td class="line">Travel to work</td>
<td class="line"> </td>

<tr>
<td class="time">9:00</td>
<td class="line">Plan day</td>

</tr>
<tr>
<td class="time">9:30</td>
<td class="line">Review yesterday's comments</td>
<td class="line"> </td>

You could use CSS Flexbox and some manipulation of position to overlap tasks occurring in the same hour. This is a good start to achieving a similar layout to the image you provided.
.line{
/* width: 100%; */
border-top: 1px solid black;
/* position: absolute; */
background-color: #ADD8E6;
width: 100%;

}
.title{
font-size: 10px;
}
.time{
border-top: 1px solid black;
width: 49px;
width: auto;
height: 30pt;
color: #555;
}
table tr {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
table tr td {
flex: initial;
}
table tr td:not(:first-child) {
border-left: .19rem solid blue;
}
table .overlap {
margin-top: .75rem;
}
table .overlap td {
height: 3rem;
margin-bottom: -7px;
}
table .overlap > .time {
padding-right: .6rem;
}
table .overlap .line:last-child {
position: relative;
left: -.5px;
bottom: -2px;
}
.hour {
font-size: 1.3rem;
}
<body>
<table style="width: 100%;">
<tr>
<td class="time hour">8:00</td>
<td class="line">Excercise</td>
</tr>
<tr class="overlap">
<td class="time half">8:30</td>
<td class="line">Plan day</td>
<td class="line" style="margin-bottom: .5rem">Travel to work</td>

<td class="time hour">9:00</td>

Frozen columns not aligned with scrollable columns (HTML+CSS)

The problem that I'm facing currently is that only <td> part is getting frozen. and the <th> has no effect of the code. I couldn't figure out how to get this fixed? Any help would be much appreciated.

Unexplained Extra Space, Possibly Padding Surrounding a Table within a Table

This is an experiment I'm working on for a layout. I had a lot of issues positioning divs to achieve this effect, so I turned to the old standby, table cascades. My problem here is that that last upper box has extra padding in all 3 browsers and I cannot seem to CSS or HTML it away no matter what I try. The red boxes should be flush over the green bits you see surrounding them and there shouldn't be a 1px visible green line to the right of the blue row between the red boxes. Any insight would be extremely appreciated.

Do you mean this?
http://jsfiddle.net/Nq8Us/1/
I've edited your code and removed the extra 'padding' of green under red in question, by removing inline-styling, then added some styles in css pointing to the #problem_cell_table.
I suggest you remove all your inline styling and shift them to the stylesheet. Inline-styling overrides all stylesheet code. That's bad and also explains why you don't get any effect from stylesheet changes.
As to why there's a padding, it's because your main table's height that is wrapping all the rows, cells, and inner-tables, is higher than the declared row height added together. The cells in your all the rows automatically adjusts it's size to compensate for pixels that doesn't add up to your total declared of 525px.
In the example I've done, I "cheated" by setting css of the inner-table to height: 100% so it will expand to fit the height, should miscalculations occur.
Give me a moment, I'll add more to the <div> styling methods in my answer.
Edit:
Ok here my attempt at the layout using <div> and CSS. http://jsfiddle.net/XbFcJ/
Remember to use a CSS Reset Stylesheet first!
The CSS:
<style>
body{
background: black;
}
.wrapper{
}
.container{
width: 1500px;
}
.content-table {
border: 25px solid #fff;
overflow: hidden;
background: #fff;
}
.content-column {
margin-right: 25px;
float: left;
height: 475px;
}
.content-column.last {
margin-right: 0;
}
.first, .third, .last {
width: 425px;
background-color: green;
margin-right: 25px;
}
.top{
height: 225px;
border-bottom: 25px solid blue;
}
.left {
height: 225px;
width: 200px;
border-right: 25px solid blue;
}
.content-column.second {
width: 100px;
background-color: red;
}
.last .left {
background-color: red;
}
.last .left .top {
height: 100px;
border-bottom: 25px solid blue;
}​
</style>
The HTML:
<body>
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="container">
<div class="content-table">
<div class="content-column first">
<div class="top">
</div>
<div class="bottom">
<div class="left">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="content-column second">
</div>
<div class="content-column third">
<div class="top">
<div class="left">
</div>
</div>
<div class="bottom">
</div>
</div>
<div class="content-column last">
<div class="top">
<div class="left">
<div class="top">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="bottom">
