I want repeated rows of 2 divs. In each row one div will contain an image and the second will contain a description. I want each pair of divs to remain on the same line and aligned at the top always. But as the screen is shrunk, the second div will expand vertically to accomodate the text with less width. As this happens I would like all other rows of div-pairs to get pushed down so they remain aligned at the top also.
It seems so simple but I cant do it, an explanation of what I am missing and a solution would be fantastic.
Here's my code so far:
CSS:
<style>
.container{
width: auto;
height: auto;
border: solid 1px blueviolet;
}
.photo-box{
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: top;
width:150px;
height:150px;
border:solid 1px red;
}
.details-box{
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: top;
width:auto;
height:auto;
min-height:150px;
min-width: 100px;
border:solid 1px black;
}
</style>
HTML:

This is what I am trying to achieve:
Here try this by making your widths 49%, makeing them flex boxes and floating left the photo box.

I'm new in web programming and I'm actually learning html and css and I have a problem applying background color in some parts of my web page.
Can someone help me to apply the background color in the header as I've done in my footer. Don't know why it is not working on the header.I've tried to set the same background color to the childs of the header but it is a dirt solution and does not look nice.
Thanks.

Everything inside the header is position: fixed, so it is taken out of normal flow.
Since there is nothing inside the header which is in normal flow, there is nothing to cause the header to have any height.
Since it is zero pixels tall, you can't see any background.
If you want the elements inside the header to be side-by-side, lay them out using flexbox instead of positioning.
You must set a height to the header

hello everyone i have an idea and I don't know how to do it.
second div have p who length is auto, and i want to auto wrap div
This can be achieved by setting some width to 'first-div' and setting 'float: left'. So that rest of the space is allocated to the 'second-div'. Check the sample css here. Let's say the first div has class 'first-div':
.first-div {
width: 300px;
float: left;
background-color: yellow;
}
See the working example:
div {
margin: 0 10px;
padding: 0 10px;
text-align: justify;
}
.border {
border: 1px solid #777;
}
.first-div {
width: 300px;
float: left;
background-color: yellow;
}
<div>
<div class="first-div border">
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit. Sit quis perferendis atque voluptatem iste non ex voluptatibus rem architecto laboriosam fugiat dolorum aspernatur nulla doloribus harum nostrum labore, id iure!

I'm trying to create a way to leak an element from it's parent container.
I'm using max-width and margin: auto for the container to center.
The child element has position: relative and uses left + translateX transform to become centered.
The CSS works OK until the page gets scrolling (content height higher than screen height).
This vertical scroll also generates horizontal scrolling.
I was able to hide it using overflow-x: hidden but i really want to know why i'm getting an horizontal scroll?
Maybe is because the transform? CODE BELOW (see in fullscreen):
.leaked {
position: relative;
left: 50%;
transform: translatex(-50%);
width: 100vw;
margin: 0;
overflow: hidden;
}
.container {
padding: 0 20px;
margin: 0 auto;
max-width: 960px;
position: relative;
}
/* EXTRA */
.block {
padding: 20px 0;
background: darkred;
color: white;
}
body {
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
}
img {
max-width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
figcaption {
text-align: center;
color: gray;
font-size: 0.8em;
}
.force-scroll {
height: 100vh;
}
<article class="container">

</article>
According to documentation
The viewport-percentage lengths are relative to the size of the initial containing block. When the height or width of the initial containing block is changed, they have scaled accordingly.
However, when the value of overflow on the root element is auto, any
scrollbars are assumed not to exist.
So there is no way to without js to get width without scrollbars :(
It's the width on .leaked. I changed the width from 100vw to 100% and the image reduces in size so it now fits in the container.
.leaked {
width: 100%;
//other styles
}
But if you do want the leaked content to go full width you need to change your html structure so .leaked sections are not inside the container, that way it will go full width:

white-space: nowrap is preventing it from going to the next line. In fact, that's exactly what it's intended to do.
http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_text_white-space.asp
EDIT: If you want to make text not overflow, consider where you are adding that property. You want the container not to overflow, not the text. So add overflow: hidden or text-overflow: ellipsis to your div, not to the p tag.
