CSS: Width in percentage and Borders
(5 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I want to create a bar to go along the top of a box on a website that I am working on.
This is the desired outcome
Here's my code, I keep getting this overlap
.page {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
position: relative;
}
.section {
border: 2px solid #FBA7FF;
width: 85%;
height: 30%;
margin: 1vw;
padding: 1vw;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
}
.section h1 {
position: relative;
}
.section_header {
border: 4px solid #FBA7FF;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
bottom: 95%;
}
<div class='page'>
<div class='section'>
<div class="section_header"></div>
<h1>sample text</h1>
</div>
</div>
So far I've got the parent div with position: relative and the child element with position: absolute then setting top and left to 0 width to 100% and bottom to 95% to attempt the desired effect yet it creates an overlap.
I can see that 0 is within the div and doesn't take into account the border which is perhaps why this is happening.
* {
box-sizing: border-box;
margin: 0;
}
.page {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
position: relative;
}
.section {
width: 100%;
display: inline-block;
text-align: center;
}
.section_header {
width: 100%;
background: #FBA7FF;
display: block;
height: 70px;
margin-bottom: 20px;
}
<div class='page'>
<div class='section'>
<div class="section_header"></div>
<h1>sample text</h1>
</div>
</div>
Remove the position:absolute and use flex-direction:column;
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
.page {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
flex-direction: column;
min-height: 100vh;
background: lightgrey;
position: relative;
}
.section {
border: 2px solid #FBA7FF;
width: 85%;
margin: 1vh auto;
height: 30%;
background: lightgreen;
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
flex: 1;
align-items: center;
}
.section_header {
height: 50px;
width: 100%;
background: orange;
}
<div class='page'>
<div class='section'>
<div class="section_header"></div>
<h1>sample text</h1>
</div>
</div>

Flexbox: center horizontally and vertically

How can I vertically align elements in a div?

Closed 2 years ago.
Lets say I have this simple html page:
<div class="main">
<div class="header">
<h1>HEADER</h1>
</div>
<div class="content">
<div class="box">
</div>
</div>
</div>
My header is fixed and the content should be beneath it and with height 100% of what ever left of the body.
I've already done that with this style:
*{
margin-left: 0;
margin-top: 0;
}
body,
html {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
}
.header {
background-color: red;
text-align: center;
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
}
.content {
background-color: antiquewhite;
padding-top: 38px;
}
h1 {
margin-bottom: 0;
}
.main {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
height: 100vh;
}
.content {
flex: 1;
}
.box {
width: 150px;
height: 150px;
background-color: yellow;
}
Here's how the page looks for now: https://elbargho.github.io/sudoku/centerdiv.html
now I'm trying to center the box div horizontally and vertically in relative to the full body - the header size
what I've tried to do:
margin-top: 50% - for some reason the box went all the way down to the bottom
setting the position of content div to relative, and of box div to absolute - the content div overlapped the fixed header
You can set content class as
.content {
/* flex: 1; */
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
*{
margin-left: 0;
margin-top: 0;
}
body,
html {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
}
.header {
background-color: red;
text-align: center;
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
}
.content {
background-color: antiquewhite;
padding-top: 38px;
}
h1 {
margin-bottom: 0;
}
.main {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
height: 100vh;
}
.content {
/*flex: 1; */
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.box {
width: 150px;
height: 150px;
background-color: yellow;
}
<div class="main">
<div class="header">
<h1>HEADER</h1>
</div>
<div class="content">
<div class="box">
</div>
</div>
</div>
This is probably what you need. Documented in the code.
* {
margin-left: 0;
margin-top: 0;
}
body,
html {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
}
/* Modified */
.header {
background-color: red;
text-align: center;
/* position: fixed; */
position: sticky;
width: 100%;
}
.content {
background-color: antiquewhite;
padding-top: 38px;
}
h1 {
margin-bottom: 0;
}
/* Modified */
.main {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
height: 100vh;
align-items: center;
}
/* Modified */
.content {
/*flex: 1;*/
display: flex;
align-items: center;
height: inherit;
}
.box {
width: 150px;
height: 150px;
background-color: yellow;
}
<div class="main">
<div class="header">
<h1>HEADER</h1>
</div>
<div class="content">
<div class="box">
</div>
</div>
</div>
Here solution:
.content {
display: flex;
flex: 1;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
}
One way is to use CSS Transform.
.box {
position: relative;
top: 50%;
transform: translateY(-50%);
/* horizontal center */
margin: 0 auto;
}

I need to make an image take the maximum size (taking max width or max height) in a flex container.
Since the parent container doesn't have a fixed width and height, I can't use max-width and max-height and flex:1 is not working either.
Here is an example of the problem : https://jsfiddle.net/vb26u0e5/2/
I would like the image to take automaticaly all the available green space (remove the width: 40px; line 20).
#mainContainer {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
color: white;
}
#imageContainer {
flex: 1;
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
background-color: green;
}
#image {
width: 40px;
}
#previous,
#next {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
font-size: 25px;
padding: 0 10px;
background-color: purple;
}
#title,
#footer {
text-align: center;
}
#title {
background-color: blue;
}
#footer {
background-color: red;
}
<div id="mainContainer">
<div id="title">TITLE</div>
<div id="imageContainer">
<div id="previous"><</div>
<img id="image" src="https://via.placeholder.com/1920x1080" />
<div id="next">></div>
</div>
<div id="footer">FOOTER</div>
</div>
Add this to your code:
#image {
width: 40px;
flex-grow: 1; /* new */
}
Normally, you would be able to use flex-basis (which is equivalent to width, in this case), and do some like this:
#image {
flex: 1; /* fg:1, fs:1, fb:0 */
}
OR
#image {
flex: 1 0 40px;
}
However, some browsers have a bug which causes them to ignore flex-basis in nested flex containers. So the width / flex-grow combination is a clean workaround.
For more details see the "Browser Bugs" section in my answer here:
What are the differences between flex-basis and width?
The demo below covers the issue answered above, plus height issues – aspect ratio and vertical scroll – by wrapping the image in a div and using absolute positioning and object-fit on the image.
Tested in Chrome, Firefox and Edge.

bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;

#imageContainer {
flex: 1;
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
background-color: green;
}
#image {
flex-grow: 1;
position: relative;
}
img {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
object-fit: cover;
}

use object-fit property to specify how the image should be resized to fit its container. I have set it to object-fit: cover which will cut off the sides of the image, preserving the aspect ratio, and also filling in the space. Also use flex-grow:1 to fill the 'green' space.
#mainContainer {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
color: white;
}
#imageContainer {
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
background-color: green;

#image {
object-fit: cover;
flex-grow: 1;
height: 100%;
overflow: hidden;

You can calc the width based on Vertical Width (100vw) & remove the padding of your PREV/NEXT
Something like this?
#mainContainer {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
color: white;
}
#imageContainer {
flex: 1;
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
background-color: green;
}
#image {
width: calc(100vw - 50px);
height: 100vh;
}
#previous,
#next {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
font-size: 25px;
padding: 0 10px;
background-color: purple;
}
#title,
#footer {
text-align: center;
}
#title {
background-color: blue;
}
#footer {
background-color: red;
}
<div id="mainContainer">
<div id="title">TITLE</div>
<div id="imageContainer">
<div id="previous"><</div>

I'm trying to create element div that contain 3 part, using 2 row and 2 column.
.flex-row {
flex-direction: row;
display: flex;
width: 310px;
}
.flex-column {
flex-direction: column;
display: flex;
}
.flex-body {
display: flex;
margin: 40px 10px 0px 0px;
}
.flex-body div:not([class*="flex"]) {
border: 1px solid white;
flex: 1 1 260px;
width: 764px;
}
<div class="flex-body">
<div class="flex-row">
<div style="background: #0980cc;"></div>
</div>
<div class="flex-column">
<div style="background: #09cc69;"></div>
<div style="background: #cc092f;"></div>
</div>
</div>
I set the width because if I didn't do it, the width wouldn't fit page.
But the div isn't responsive. I've tried but nothing work. How can I make my div responsive the screen resolution?
I've just created a version that uses percentages:
body,
html {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
border: 0;
}
.flex-body {
display: flex;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
box-sizing: border-box;
padding: 40px;
}
.flex-body div:not([class*="flex"]) {
border: 1px solid white;
flex: 1 1 50%;
position: relative;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.flex-row {
flex-direction: row;
display: flex;
width: 35%;
background-color: #0980cc;
}
.flex-column {
flex-direction: column;
display: flex;
width: 65%;
}
.flex-column div:nth-child(1) {
background: #09cc69;
width: 100%;
}
.flex-column div:nth-child(2) {
background: #cc092f;
width: 100%;
}

First of all, the first snippet below is the problem I'm trying to fix.
Note that this was working perfectly fine IF display: flex; is applied to body.
However, I do not want to apply style to body which will break Google Web Cache layout.
* More explanation after the first snippet
* { box-sizing: border-box; }
body { margin: 0; }
.wrapper {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
min-height: 100vh;
width: 100%;
background-color: #ccc;
}
.navigation {
background-color: #f00;
width: 100%;
height: 3rem;
}
.footer {
background-color: #0f0;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
line-height: 2rem;
}
.content {
background-color: #ff0;
flex: 1;
margin: 0.6rem 0 1.2rem;
}
.container {
background-color: #f0f;
margin: 0 auto;
max-width: 120rem;
width: 100%;
padding: 0 2rem;
}
.centered {
display: flex;
height: 100%;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
}
.long-content {
background-color: #fff;
}
<main class="wrapper">
<nav class="navigation">.navigation</nav>
<div class="content">
<section class="container centered">
<div class="long-content">.long-content</div>
</section>
</div>
<footer class="footer">.footer</footer>
</main>
So, removing display: flex; raised this issue:
section within .content does not have the height spanning across .content
Trying to fix it with position: relative on .content and position: absolute on .centered fixed the height issue but raised:
Width of .centered does not span across .content which can be easily fixed with left:0;right:0;
Height does not flow with content in section (I'm out of idea here)
Was it wrong to use position: relative and position: absolute to patch the original issue?
If so, what is the more suitable solution?
* { box-sizing: border-box; }
body { margin: 0; }
.wrapper {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
min-height: 100vh;
width: 100%;
background-color: #ccc;
}
.navigation {
background-color: #f00;
width: 100%;
height: 3rem;
}
.footer {
background-color: #0f0;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
line-height: 2rem;
}
.content {
background-color: #ff0;
flex: 1;
margin: 0.6rem 0 1.2rem;
position: relative;
}
.container {
background-color: #f0f;
margin: 0 auto;
max-width: 120rem;
width: 100%;
padding: 0 2rem;
}
.centered {
display: flex;
position: absolute;
height: 100%;
left: 0;
right: 0;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
}
.long-content {
background-color: #fff;
height: 1000px;
}
<main class="wrapper">
<nav class="navigation">.navigation</nav>
<div class="content">
<section class="container centered">
<div class="long-content">.long-content</div>
</section>
</div>
<footer class="footer">.footer</footer>
</main>
I continued looking for solution and quickly noticed that I have shallow knowledge about flexbox itself so I went ahead and played with Flexbox Froggy.
After completing all the levels, I noticed that I can align everything without position: absolute by just using justify-content on .wrapper.
Below is my solution for my silly issue.
If you remove height of .long-content, .centered will continue to get aligned vertically.
Thank you froggies and shout out to Codepip!

I'm not quite understanding what rule of stacking context I am not understanding here. I have a 'divider' line ('divider-line') that I want to put behind a box div ('block').
Here is the HTML:
<div class="report-title">
<div class="divider-line"></div>
<div class="block">
<div class="icon">0</div>
<h1 class="text">FOO BAR</h1>
</div>
</div>
Here is the CSS(w/ scss nesting):
.report-title {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
flex-direction: column;
position: relative;
width: 100%;
margin: 100px 0;
.block {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
position: absolute;
top: -100px;
z-index: 10;
height: 200px;
width: 475px;
.icon {
font-size: 9rem;
}
.text {
display: block;
}
}
.divider-line {
width: 100%;
height: 1px;
background-color: gray;
}
}
The HTML context, having 'divider-line' child come before it's sibling 'block' should put it behind no? The z-index of 10 on 'block' doesn't do anything, and I've tried putting a z-index of -1 on 'divider-line' as well (to no avail).
Any advice or direction would be great,
Without the z-index in you example, adding a background colour to the block shows that the divider is behind the block.
.report-title {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
flex-direction: column;
position: relative;
width: 100%;
margin: 100px 0;
}
.block {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
position: absolute;
background-color: #FFF;
top: -100px;
height: 200px;
width: 475px;
}
.icon {
font-size: 9rem;
}
.text {
display: block;
}
.divider-line {
width: 100%;
