Adapt banner height according its own content - html

I am working with grids. I have the header, banner, content and footer sections. My problem is that I need to adapt the banner height with its own content. I mean, if the text has one line, three or whatever the height of the banner should change accordingly.
The problem that I have currently is that when I have one paragraph with one line it is displayed fine but when I have more than one line the result is that the button is out of the banner container.
My code is as follows:
css
.grid {
display: grid;
grid-template-rows: 56px 80px auto 80px;
grid-template-areas:
"header"
"banner"
"content"
"footer";
grid-gap: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100vh;
}
.grid-header {
grid-area: header;
z-index: 100;
}
.grid-banner {
grid-area: banner;
z-index: 50;
}
.grid-content {
grid-area: content;
display: grid;
height: 200px;
justify-content: center;
}
.grid-footer {
grid-area: footer;
}
html
.grid {
display: grid;
grid-template-rows: 56px 80px auto 80px;
grid-template-areas:
"header"
"banner"
"content"
"footer";
grid-gap: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100vh;
}
.grid-header {
background-color: rgba(255, 255, 0, 0.3);
grid-area: header;
z-index: 100;
}
.grid-banner {
background-color: rgba(0, 255, 0, 0.3);
grid-area: banner;
max-height: 110px;
z-index: 50;
}
.grid-content {
background-color: white;
grid-area: content;
display: grid;
height: 200px;
justify-content: center;
}
.grid-footer {
background-color: rgba(255, 0, 255, 0.3);
grid-area: footer;
}
<div class="grid">
<div class="grid-header">
<div class="header-container">Header</div>
</div>
<div class="grid-banner">Banner</div>
<div class="grid-content">Content</div>
<div class="grid-footer">Footer</div>
Any idea?

There is a fixed height on grid-banner class. Try changing grid-template-rows: 56px 80px auto 80px to grid-template-rows: 56px auto 1fr 80px.
Like so -
.grid {
display: grid;
grid-template-rows: 56px auto 1fr 80px;
grid-template-areas:
"header"
"banner"
"content"
"footer";
grid-gap: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100vh;
}
.grid-header {
background-color: rgba(255, 255, 0, 0.3);
grid-area: header;
z-index: 100;
}
.grid-banner {
background-color: rgba(0, 255, 0, 0.3);
grid-area: banner;
max-height: 110px;
z-index: 50;
}
.grid-content {
background-color: white;
grid-area: content;
display: grid;
height: 200px;
justify-content: center;
}
.grid-footer {
background-color: rgba(255, 0, 255, 0.3);
grid-area: footer;
}
<div class="grid">
<div class="grid-header">
<div class="header-container">Header</div>
</div>
<div class="grid-banner">
This is looooong banner This is looooong banner This is looooong banner This is looooong banner This is looooong banner This is looooong banner This is looooong banner This is looooong banner This is looooong banner This is looooong banner This is looooong banner This is looooong banner This is looooong banner This is looooong banner This is looooong banner This is looooong banner
</div>
<div class="grid-content">Content</div>
<div class="grid-footer">Footer</div>

You should delete the max-height on your .grid-banner and the height on your .grid-content. For the whitespace you want you could use padding-top/bottom. Because of the max-height and the height in your classes you already defined how big the height of your banner will be. By deleting them and adding padding to the content your banner will define the height equal to the number of characters you put in it.
.grid-banner {
background-color: rgba(0, 255, 0, 0.3);
grid-area: banner;
z-index: 50;
}
.grid-content {
background-color: white;
grid-area: content;
display: grid;
padding-top: 25px;
padding-bottom: 25px;
justify-content: center;
}

How can I get my grid column to stay the same size (height and width) when resizing viewports?

I have a container that will have a picture of the day. When changing viewport sizes (mobile screen size) the container gets squashed so much that the image is not readable.. How can I get the containers in my grid system to stay the exact same size relative to the viewport? Thank you!!

The container that will hold the image is labeled as "IOTD"
Any help is appreciated
resolved the issue by changing the image size rather than the container size when the viewport reaches 900px. I also change the font size to a smaller size which in turn makes all of the containers smaller
One approach might be to include a grid-template-columns rule to specify how you want the horizontal space apportioned, this can include a minimum absolute (px) width for the first column with the option of allowing it to grow when more space is available using minmax.
For example, I've added the following rule to your css:
grid-template-columns: minmax(150px, 1fr) repeat(5, 1fr);
This divides the grid into 6 columns to be consistent with your area template (which remains in operation) but makes the first column at least 150px wide with the option of expanding with the other columns when extra width is available. The remaining five columns are allocated 1/5 of the available space by specifying 5 1fr fractions.
Here's the rule added to your example:
html,
body,
form,
main {
height: 100%;
}
body {
background-color: #232A35;
padding: 10px;
}
.content {
height: 100%;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}

This page https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_Grid_Layout/Grid_Template_Areas has examples where grid-template-areas are combined with grid-template-columns (it also has some ideas on using media queries to suit different view ports).

how to use css grid to display components at particular area

here's my html code

<div id="sidenav " class="box">Side Navbar</div>
<div id="main " class="box">Main</div>

grid-template-columns: 25% 75% 25%;
grid-gap: 15px;
grid-template-rows:25% 50% 25% ;
// grid-gap: 15px;
grid-template-areas:

grid-area: hd;
}
#sidenav{
grid-area: sd;
}
#main{
grid-area: ma;
}
#footer{
grid-area: ft;
}
}
the problem is the footer div doesn't display in the bottom here's a screenshot
what i want is to make the footer display at the bottom so what seems to be the problem here
There are some issues that I found in your code which makes the layout little wonky.
grid-template-columns: 25% 75% 25%;
The column total is more than 100%, so it will not work perfectly.
I would highly recommend you to use a CSS grid generator online like https://grid.layoutit.com/
For your layout, I would also not recommend structure 3x3 (columns and rows) - As from the image you shared above it looks like the following
1 row - For "Navbar" (this doesnt need any sub columns)
1 row - For Content -> this has 2 columns 1 for "SideNav" and 1 for "Main"
1 row - For "Footer" (again you dont need sub columns)
Based on this your HTML structure will end up looking like
<div class="container">
<div class="navbar">Navbar</div>
<div class="Content">
<div class="SideNav">Side Nav</div>
<div class="Main">Main</div>
</div>
<div class="Footer">Footer</div>
</div>
And your CSS will look like this
body{
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
.container {
width: 100vw;
height: 100vh;
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 1fr;
grid-template-rows: 25% 50% 25%;
gap: 0px 0px;
grid-template-areas:
"navbar"
"Content"
"Footer";
}
.navbar {
grid-area: navbar;
background-color: #f5f5f5;
padding: 16px;
text-align: center;
}
.Content {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 360px 1fr;
grid-template-rows: 1fr;
gap: 0px 0px;
grid-template-areas:
"SideNav Main";
grid-area: Content;
}
.SideNav {
grid-area: SideNav;
background-color: #e5e5e5;
padding: 16px;
}
.Main {
grid-area: Main;
background-color: salmon;
padding: 16px;
}
.Footer {
grid-area: Footer;
background-color: #d5d5d5;
padding: 16px;
text-align: center;
}
Here, if you check the code well, the container has 3 rows (25% - navbar, 50% - content, 25% - footer)
And then content has 2 columns (360px - Sidenav, 1fr - Main)
Hope this helps :)

Toggling rows in and out in CSS Grid Layout

I have the following layout with 2 headers and 3 footers:
.my-grid {
display: grid;
grid-template-areas:
"header1"
"header2"
"mainAreaExpandMePlease"
"footer1"
"footer2"
"footer3"
;
grid-template-rows: 27px 27px 1fr 28px 28px 28px;
height: 100%;
}
The main area will expand to fill the gap left after showing the headers and footers.
I want to be able to toggle footers on and off (show / hide them) such that they collapse. With the code above, a gap will be left in place of the footer when we hide it.
How should I go about:
Having a main area that always expands
Having optional headers and footers which collapse, when hidden
Examples:
If header1 collapses, then header2 should take its place and mainAreaExpandMePlease should expand to where header2 used to be
If header2 collapses, then mainAreaExpandMePlease should expand up by another 27px
If footer3 collapses, then footer2 takes place of footer3, footer1 takes the place of footer2 and mainAreaExpandMePlease will stretch down another 28px
Thank you!

Set their heights on the items, and set their container heights to auto.

Prevent grid items from expanding when content is added

I'm trying to create a layout where the screen is divided into some number of equally-sized cells. When I fill one of the cells with content, it stretches to be larger than the other cells, even though the content is much smaller than the cell itself.
Why is the cell stretching despite it being plenty big to hold its content? How can I prevent it from resizing?

You're setting the column and row sizes to auto. This means they will be sized based on their content. Instead, use fr units, which use the free space in the container.
#content {
display: grid;
grid-template-rows: 20px auto 20px;
grid-template-columns: 20px auto 20px;
height: 100vh;
background-color: #880022;
}
#grid {
grid-row-start: 2;
grid-column-start: 2;

grid-template-rows: 1fr 1fr; /* adjustment */
grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr; /* adjustment */
grid-gap: 2px;
}

jsFiddle demo
You have a lot of extra markup, here is a simplified version, the trick is using fr unit instead of auto and you can use repeat()
html,
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: #802;
}
#grid {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(2, 1fr);
grid-template-rows: repeat(2, minmax(80px, 1fr));
grid-gap: 2px;
padding: 20px;
box-sizing: border-box;
height: 100vh
}
.tile {
background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.2);
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
}
.tile span {
font-size: 2em;
}
.tile:hover {
background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3);
}
<div id="grid">
<div class="tile"><span>test</span></div>
<div class="tile"></div>
<div class="tile"></div>
<div class="tile"></div>
</div>
One solution would be to give line-height: 0 to your .tile elements. This will ensure that the text doesn't take up any space, though will limit you to only having one line of text per square:
html,
body {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: #880022;
}
#content {
display: grid;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
grid-template-rows: 20px auto 20px;
grid-template-columns: 20px auto 20px;
}
#content2 {
display: grid;
grid-template-rows: auto;
grid-template-columns: auto;
height: 100%;
background-color: #ff00ff;
}
#grid {
grid-row-start: 2;
grid-column-start: 2;
display: grid;
grid-template-rows: auto auto;
grid-template-columns: auto auto;
grid-gap: 2px 2px;
}
.tile {
background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.2);
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
line-height: 0;
}
.tile span {
font-size: 2em;
}
.tile:hover {
background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3);
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<div id="content">
<div id="grid">

<div class="tile"></div>
<div class="tile"></div>
<div class="tile"></div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
However, in my opinion, the better solution would be to set grid-auto-rows: 1fr on #grid, which instructs each of the rows to take up as much height as the tallest row:
html,
body {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: #880022;
}
#content {
display: grid;

height: 100%;
grid-template-rows: 20px auto 20px;
grid-template-columns: 20px auto 20px;
}
#content2 {
display: grid;
grid-template-rows: auto;
grid-template-columns: auto;
height: 100%;
background-color: #ff00ff;
}
#grid {
grid-row-start: 2;
grid-column-start: 2;
display: grid;
grid-template-rows: auto auto;
grid-template-columns: auto auto;
grid-gap: 2px 2px;
grid-auto-rows: 1fr;
}
.tile {
background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.2);
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
line-height: 0;
}
.tile span {
font-size: 2em;
}
.tile:hover {
background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3);
}
<!DOCTYPE html>

I have recently started using the Grid layout in CSS and I am trying to make the elements in one of the grid areas fill the whole area. It works to set the width to 100% of the parent. But I have a really hard time getting the height of my div to be the same as the parent div. Here is some code to showcase my problem:
body {
width: 100vw;
height: 100vh
}
.grid {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: [sidebar-col-start] 15% [sidebar-col-end content-col-start] auto [content-col-end];
grid-template-rows: [sidebar-row-start content-row-start] auto [sidebar-row-end footer-row-start] 10% [footer-row-end];
}
.area {
grid-column: content-col-start / content-col-end;
grid-row: content-row-start / footer-row-start;
background-color: rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.4);
align-items: stretch;
}
.footer {
grid-column: sidebar-col-start / content-col-end;
grid-row: footer-row-start / footer-row-end;
background-color: rgba(0, 255, 0, 0.4);
}
.sidebar {
grid-column: sidebar-col-start / sidebar-col-end;
grid-row: sidebar-row-start / sidebar-row-end;
background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
}
.red {
background-color: red;
height: 100%;
}
<div class="grid">
<div class="sidebar">
</div>
<div class="area">
<div class="red">
</div>
</div>
</div>

My question is: How do I make a div fill the whole parent (which is a grid area)? Or more specifically, how do I make the height of the children match the parent's height?
Set .red with a min-height of 100vh.
body {
margin: 0;
width: 100vw;
height: 100vh
}
.grid {
width: 100vw;
height: 100vh;
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: [sidebar-col-start] 15% [sidebar-col-end content-col-start] auto [content-col-end];
grid-template-rows: [sidebar-row-start content-row-start] auto [sidebar-row-end footer-row-start] 10% [footer-row-end];
}
.area {
grid-column: content-col-start / content-col-end;
grid-row: content-row-start / footer-row-start;
background-color: rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.4);
align-items: stretch;
}
.footer {
grid-column: sidebar-col-start / content-col-end;
grid-row: footer-row-start / footer-row-end;
background-color: rgba(0, 255, 0, 0.4);
}
.sidebar {
grid-column: sidebar-col-start / sidebar-col-end;
grid-row: sidebar-row-start / sidebar-row-end;
background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
}
.red {
background-color: red;
height: 100vh;
}
<div class="grid">
<div class="sidebar">
</div>
<div class="area">
<div class="red">
</div>
