Can I limit the width of text inside of a <p>? - html

In Markdown images are wrapped inside of paragraphs. I'd like images to be wider than text and fill the container's larger width. How can I solve this? Here is an example: https://sidey.now.sh/2019/08/31/difference-between-font-formats/
Ideally the text would only have a width of 40rem.

You can solve this using CSS grid:
.container {
margin:0 50px;
border:1px solid;
}
.container >p {
display:grid;
grid-template-columns:1fr minmax(0,20rem) 1fr;
}
/* this pseudo element will take the first column and force the text to be on the middle one */
p::before {
content:"";
}
/**/
p > img {
grid-column:1/span 3; /* the image should take all the 3 columns (full width) */
}
img {
max-width:100%;
}
<div class="container">

How is space divided amongst flex items when flex-basis and flex-grow both are set?

I am going through a basic flexbox tutorial from MDN and cant get my head around on how is the remaining space divided amongst the flex item, when flex-basis is set.
In the live demo, I set the following code:
article {
flex: 1 200px;
}
article:nth-of-type(3) {
flex: 2 200px;
}
My browser screen is 1369px, after taking the scrollbar out I am left with 1349px. MDN says that
"Each flex item will first be given 200px of the available space. After that, the rest of the available space will be shared out according to the proportion units."
So the available space after min 200px is given to each article should be 1349px - 3*200px = 749px. Now, the article three should get half of the available space plus 200px, that is 200 + 749/2 = 575.5. Taking 10px margin space out from both sides we get 555.5px, but in my laptop it occupies 535.5px.
Below is the working demo:
* {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
html {
font-family: sans-serif;
}
body {
margin: 0;
}
header {
background: purple;
height: 100px;
}
h1 {
text-align: center;
color: white;
line-height: 100px;
margin: 0;
}
article {
padding: 10px;
margin: 10px;
background: aqua;
flex: 1 200px;
}
/* Add your flexbox CSS below here */
section {
display: flex;
}
article:nth-of-type(3) {
flex: 2 200px;
}
<header>

Please explain how is space divided amongst flex items when flex-basis and flex-grow both are set?
If I do article:nth-of-type(3) { flex: 2; } it doesn't give double space to article 3, why?
Margin should be considered initially and removed from the total width in order to calculate the free space. Not later, like you are doing.
So all your elements start with 200px width and 20px margin. The free sapce will be 1350px - 3*200px - 3*20x = 690px. Now, the article three should have a width equal to 2/4*690px + 200px = 545px (and not 555px)
without box-sizing you will have 1350px - 3*220px - 3*20x = 630px and the width will be 535px

Image has not same height as text

I want the image to be the same height as the text. Regardless of how long the text is.
I do not know where my mistake is and why it does not work.
I think that float: left is a problem. I used a Clearfix. It can not be so.
Flexbox shouldn't be used in this case.
The result should look like this:
This is my code:
* {
box-sizing: border-box;
margin:0;
padding: 0;
}
html{
font-size: 62.5%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;

Strange behavior of the "column-count" property in Chrome

I used a column-count to split the text into columns and assigned the display: inline-block; for child elements to exclude text wrapping inside blocks. As a result, there was a strange behavior when rendering, for some reason a large indent appeared after the block of columns. Is this a bug of chrome or am I doing something wrong? Are there any ways around this?

Vertically position three elements: flexible box, scroll box & fixed box

Is the following even possible with css? If not, what javascript events would be used even if the green box changes content?
I'd like to vertically position three boxes:
The first one (the green one) can have some variable amount of content, and the box should expand to fit the content. This box should be flush with the top of the browser.
The last one, the yellow one, will have a fixed amount of content (meaning I know what the content is at 'compile time'). This box should be flush with the bottom of the browser.
The middle one, the red one, will have a flexible amount of content, and should extend from the bottom of the green box to the top of the yellow box, and internally it needs to be scrollable if its content is larger than the box size.
This is what I've got so far, and it doesn't quite work - I can't seem to make the bottom of the yellow box flush with the bottom of the viewport in such a way as to let the red box take up all the extra space (i.e. position: absolute doesn't seem to help).
#container {
float: left;
height: 100%;
background-color:gray;
}
#header {

#main {

And this is what it looks like:
Here's a jsfiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/n6cmdcj3/, but note it might not help, as the html box doesn't obey the viewport size - not sure how to make it so

I would do it this way. No reason to get too complicated.

I would also utilize set pixels for the main id, since you are trying to establish a scrolling content div.
Correct me if I'm wrong but, I also believe these should be classes not id. Classes are for reusable names, for example, you would utilize a class to update all the color of the divs but you would not utilize an id. An ID would be used in the cases of you needing something specific that will not be implemented anywhere else on the site. It's just good programming practice and it pays out later on when you are using JavaScript.
ID = Single Change Element
Class = Reusable multiple Elements.
Josh Rutherford's answer is great for flexbox. If you want to use a more traditional layout, you will have to set the top element to a fixed height and use vh units. The CSS will look like this:
.container {
height: 100vh;
}
.top {
background-color: #f2f2f2;
height: 24vh;
overflow: hidden;
padding: 20px;
}
.middle {
background-color: #h2h2h2;
height: 55vh;
padding: 20px;
overflow-y: scroll;
}
.bottom {
background-color: #d2d2d2;
height: 3vh;
padding: 20px;
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
}
Demo on CodePen: http://codepen.io/staypuftman/pen/eJvdYv

Why isn't this image adjusting to the width size, if it is inside the container that I am specifying to width size?

I am attempting to adjust all width sizes of inside the container. So all sides will be 80%. Why isn't the image adjusting as well? I'm expecting the image to not be so spread out to the right as it is now. I am expecting it to be aligned with everything else.
Here is the main HTML and CSS code attempting to do the above:
.container {
width: 80%;
margin: 0 auto;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="header">

Images with no style on them automatically default to their true size (ex. a 1400px by 300px image will be 1400px by 300px on the screen), as #MrLister said in his comment. You could do something like this:
img {
width: 100%;
}
to set the image width to 100% of its parent's width.
Width property isn't inherited. so the width of the container is 80% of its parent (the body element). but the width of the image is its true size.
To change its width add a css style.
img{
width: 100%;
}
this changes its width to 100% of its parent (the container).
*performance note: It's better to change the size of the picture itself rather than use the width property because you download the whole picture then resize it which means useless data download.
