I am trying to add a fixed division to the left of the webpage that will keep the navbar information and on the right I am trying to add another division. It is currently not allowing me to put them side by side (the one I wanted to add to the right is overlapping with fixed). How can I align them side by side?
Here is my CSS:
.left_fixed {
position: fixed;
width: 16%;
top: 0px;
bottom: 0px;
left: 0px;
background-color: #041230;
z-index: 100;
min-width: 170px;
}
.right_side {
position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 100vh;
}
since you set a width:16% for the fixed element you should set the rest 84% width:84% to the right element.
Next set a max-width to the right element since the left element has a min-width I have set this to max-width: calc(100% - 170px)
Align the right element to the right by adding float: right.
I have made the left element translucent so you can see that there is no overlap.
Read and run the snippet below to understand it in detail.
P.S : I have made the left element translucent so you can see that there is no overlap.
Hope it helps
.left_fixed {
position: fixed;
width: 16%;
top: 0px;
bottom: 0px;
left: 0px;
background-color: #0412303f;
z-index: 100;
min-width: 170px;
}
.right_side {
width: 84%;
background-color: green;
height: 100vh;
float: right;
max-width: calc(100% - 170px);
}
body {
margin: 0px;
}
<div class="left_fixed">
<h1>LEFT SIDE</h1>
</div>
<div class="right_side">
<h1>RIGHT SIDE</h1>
</div>
The reason that your styling fails is that the "Position: Relative" will not be relative to the "Position: fixed".
In order to accomplish the effect you are looking for I'd suggest you to use float:left on both elements instead.
You can wrap the two divs inside a parent div, and then add display flex to the parent div. This will make the two divs next to each other, and then you can add custom width to .left_fixed.

I've got a little css problem.
I got a div with a max-width. In this div there is a img that needs to be positioned outside his div (to the bottom). Unfortunately I can't use position absolute because of the max-width. When I would use position absolute, at some point the width of the screen reaches the max-width and the img with position absolute will go outside the div on the right side.
I know this must sound a little messy, so I've made a Jsfiddle:
https://jsfiddle.net/te93s8h1/
This JS Fiddle shows a example of the issue I got. I need the green block outside the div (at the bottom) but the green block can not go outside the div on the right side. How can I achieve this?
I prefer css only.
Never mind my question, I think I understand what you're trying to achieve. You should add a position: relative; statement to the style block of your .grid class as demonstrated in this JSFiddle.
Just simply try this without using position absolute.
.container {
background-color: #00f;
width: 98%;
height: 100px;
margin: auto;
max-width: 1300px;
}
.grid {
position: relative; /* Added Position */
background-color: #f00;
width: 50%;
margin: auto;
min-width: 600px;
height: 100px;
}
.block_outside_div {
position: inherit; /* Added Position */
background-color: #0f0;
height: 50px;
width: 50px;
left: 45%; /* 45% Percentage value for move from left */
top: 120px; /* 120px value for move from top */
}
<div class="container">
<div class="grid">
<div class="block_outside_div">
</div>
</div>
</div>
I have a div with some text on my page, and I want it to be at the bottom. I did this using fixed positioning:
div#popup{
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
But I also want it to be centered. I tried giving it a width of 40% and auto margins, but that doesn't work (it doesn't work with the combination of the above code) :
div#popup{
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
width: 40%;
margin-left: auto;
margin- right: auto;
How can I achieve this?
Thanks.
If you know width of div you can use negative margin-left for horizontal position (which equals half of width).
div {
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
left: 50%;
width: 40%;
height: 30px;
margin-left: -20%;
background: blue;
}
JSFiddle
If you don't know width, just use wrapper and inline-blocks:
HTML:
<section>
<div>la-la-la</div>
</section>
CSS:
section {
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
div {
display: inline-block;
border: 1px solid red;
color: red;
}

I encourage You to check two nice tutorials (quick read):
http://www.barelyfitz.com/screencast/html-training/css/positioning
http://learnlayout.com/position.html
I think You need to describe position like this:
div#popup{
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
right: 50%;
}
First off, you should never use fixed positioning to get your footer to stick to the bottom. To get the footer to stick to the bottom of the screen, set all your divs to relative, then add an extra div the same height as the footer (set a height for your footer) between the content and the footer. Then put a margin of negative that height on your content div. Works perfectly.
To centre it, use width auto and margin left and right auto or just use text-align center
I am trying to overlap the div2 over div1
http://jsfiddle.net/user1212/QsLVB/
<div id="div1"></div>
<div id="div2"></div>
#div1{
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
background-color: olive;
float: right;
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
}
#div2{
width:100px;
height: 100px;
background-color: orange;
float: right;
position: relative;
z-index: 2;
}
I need both to float to the right.
There's a number of ways you could get them to overlap.
First example http://jsfiddle.net/QsLVB/3/
Use negative margins.
#div2{
margin: 20px -100px 0 0;
}
Second example http://jsfiddle.net/QsLVB/4/
Just make the div a child of the other one. In this case z-index will not do anything, since the child will always be shown above the parent.
<div id="div1">
<div id="div2"></div>
</div>
Also, you can go other routes and use position: absolute instead and like top/right values, etc.
#div1{
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
background-color: olive;
position: absolute;
z-index: 1;
right: 0;
}
#div2{
width:100px;
height: 100px;
background-color: orange;
position: absolute;
z-index: 2;
right: 0;
}
Actually you don't need negative margins or anything like that - you can just modify your existing css to solve the problem. I ran it using my code and it works great. This is the solution I would choose in your case.
Firstly to layer anything you need to use position: absolute or position: fixed (which work similarly for our needs here).
Secondly, once using position absolute (or fixed) you can choose to position one or more edges of each div using top: right: bottom: and left:. You don't need any of them, but providing at least one will guarantee that that edge will appear at that pixel position within it's containing div.
Assuming you place these two divs within the body tag or at least don't need them to be further right than their outer containing div, you can set "right: 0;" for each div and they will work similarly to float: right for relative positioned divs (As in your original code), but since they are absolute positioned they can occupy the same space.
Then use z-index to control which one appears on top of the other.
cheers :-D
You could also set the left or right property of div2
DEMO using left
#div2 {
...
left: 200px;
}
Or instead of using float:right, use position:absolute in conjunction with right
DEMO
#div1, #div2 {
/* float: right; // removed */
position: absolute; /* changed from relative */
right: 0; /* added */
}
This is easy to accomplish if you put div2 inside div1, giving div2 an absolute position and right: 0 while its parent, div1, has a relative position.
See it in action here: http://jsfiddle.net/heGJt/
Here's the simplified CSS:
#div1 {
position: relative;
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
background-color: olive;
float: right;
}
#div2 {
width:100px;
height: 100px;
background-color: orange;
position: absolute;
right: 0;
}
And the HTML:
<div id="div1">
<div id="div2"></div>
</div>
A related question is here and the answer does not work for me. In brief there are 2 columns left and right. And the right column have a children <div> or <section> or something. When the page is scrolled, the children must not scroll or move. Adding position: absolute to the child lets the child to scroll along with the page. And position:fixed making the child to appear at screen's extreme left or right and screen top depending on right:0 or left:0. How to make this fixed inside the right column?
The JSFIDDLE is here.
You can modify .right-inner class as follows to get the desired result
.right-inner{
position: fixed;
margin-right: 5%;
text-align: middle;
}
see the updated Fiddle
Instead of 0, the value of .right's left-position should be (at least) the value of the width of the left column
for example:
.right{
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 360px;
}
You don't need the wrapper for .right, so I've elliminated it in this fork of your fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/ynMYm/
Try this:
.outer{
display: block;
width: 600px;
}
.left{
width: 350px;
border-right: 1px solid #555;
float: left;
}
.right{
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 250px;
margin-left:350px;
position: fixed;
}
.right-inner{
position: fixed;
}

I am trying to create a HTML page slider, so I have my container div, then sitting on the outside, on the left I have a Previous Icon and on the right I have a Next icon.
My problem is, when I resize the window to smaller screens the icons move into the center of my container, I want them to stay position fixed to the outside of the container at all times when resized.
My container code: -
width: 960px;
margin: 0 auto;
clear: both;
overflow: hidden;
min-height: 449px;
Next and previous code:
a.vehicleSliderLeft {background: url('../img/slider_arrow_left.png');
width: 55px; height: 112px; left: 270px; background-position:0px;
background-repeat: no-repeat; position: fixed; top: 420px;}
a.vehicleSliderRight {background: url('../img/slider_arrow_right.png');
width: 55px; height: 112px; right: 270px; background-position:0px;
background-repeat: no-repeat; position: fixed; top: 420px;}
Any ideas? cheers
You need to give the main container position: relative and then position the arrow elements inside the container with position: absolute.
This then allows you to manipulate where you put both arrows on the page using right: x , left: x , top: x , bottom: x. where x is any number or percentage.

You should try something like this:
.container{
width: auto;
margin: 0 auto;
clear: none;
}
a.vehicleSliderLeft {
float: left;
}
a.vehicleSliderRight {
float: right;
}

inside a main div you can keep each element in separate divs specifying the positions of each div specifying the widths in percentage
