I'm working on my website, and have the main body div set to a certain width. But when I upload all my files to the web host the size of width shrinks, and no matter how I adjust the code for the div the width size stays the same(wrong size) on my published site, despite looking right when I just open the code in a browser.
I've tried Editing the code directly in the web host to see if I can even adjust the width at all. I've already tried deleting and re-uploading everything a few times.
Here's what I have on my CSS style sheet:
.body1{
max-width: 1200px;
height: 1000px;
background-color: #fffdf8;
margin: auto;
padding: 10px;
text-align: center;
border: 2px solid #f892c9;
}
<div class="body1" style="height: auto">
The width of 1200px is how big I want it to be, and it appears correctly when I open the html file in a browser. When I upload the code with a webhost the width is smaller, and even if I change it to a bigger number like 1500px it stays the small size.
EDIT: I'm publishing it with 000webhost.com. As far as I can tell there's no other CSS, only what I've uploaded for my page.
Maybe you want the atributte "width" instead of "max-width"?
max-width its usefull when you want to resize the page with a specific width.
Check the Reference CSS anyway: https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_dim_width.asp
I still don't know why exactly it wouldn't work in the first place, but I finnaly decided to just cut it out of the CSS style sheet and put it with the rest of my html the old fashioned way:
Now it works.

I've been searching in other questions since this is a pretty common problem but none of them applied to my case.
I'm developing a small web app with React, just to get the basics, and the background img works fine in mobile view (there's a media query that changes it at 480px to a portrait one) it resizes from 480px to 320 and looks good.
The problem is that, at certain heights if you stretch or wide the window the background gets stucked in the middle of it (if you recharge the page it appears as it should, being the window in the same exact place as where the problem occurs).
The img is loaded through CSS in the html, If I remove the background-size property it works as expected in desktop and mobile, but when I cross the 1260px width it doesnt cover the full width.
I have this codesandbox with all my code: https://codesandbox.io/s/stoic-brahmagupta-ro2kb?file=/src/style.css
And I attach an image of the problem. Thanks in advance.
As u r testing this you can see the content of the App is overflowing the html element
I rather use min-height on global elements like body or html than static height to prevent such as cases.
So to fix it you just simply add
html {
height: auto;
min-height: 100vh;
To prevent not overflowing instead of scaling we just add min-height equaly of 100vh (viewport height).
I think it will propably do the job without height: auto; but i like add it to prevent even more edge casing
I'm working on creating a fallback image inside of my class that creates responsive images, but I am stuck with trying to fix a problem for IE. Since I cannot use things like <source>, object-fit and srcset I am up against a challenge. The image is placed underneath the content so it will size to the height of the div content. The image should cover the whole background of the div that contains the content, but the problem is that the width presses the image to this compact size that looks awful:
I will provide you with a jsfiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/6Lxwesvf/7/ .
I made a copy of one of the wrappers it does exactly what it does inside of the IE. So I hope someone knows something about making the image not look all pressed by the width.
Change this
height: 100%;
to this:
min-height: 100%;
min-width: 100%;
margin: auto;

I'm doing the first project for The Odin Project, which is recreating the Google home page. I think mine looks pretty good considering I've only been at this for a few weeks, but when I take my page out of fullscreen mode, a scrollbar appears. If you look at the Google homepage, The page itself resizes instead of using a scrollbar. Overflow:hidden obviously will just cut off the bottom of the page, so I don't want that. I'm sorry if I'm not being specific enough, but here's a link to my Github to check it out.
And if you see anything that I'm doing completely wrong or messy, I'd really love some criticism.
I haven't had a look at your GitHub, but I would suggest incorporating bootstrap, which basically lets you develop pages responsive to the screen size.
You might find this tutorial helpful:
https://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap/
After a quick look through your Github, you are setting a min-width: 500px to your all class which contans all your content. Try setting your all class width: 100% instead. This will allow your content to fill the page and adjust as the screen size adjusts.
Granted, once you get really small and content hits each-other they will break to other lines, but you would have to handle that with a media-query to adjust the size/scaling etc...
.all {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
width: 100%;
}
Actually, all I had to do was remove all your .all styles to fix this issue. I also fixed your footer so it sticks to the bottom of the page. Finally, if you want to make the input size well, use media queries like so:
#media (max-width: 500px /* or whatever */) {
input {
width: 80%;
}
}
This will set the input's width to 80% at screen sizes 500px and smaller. Hre's a pen of what I changed: https://codepen.io/Hudson_Taylor11/pen/pemaoK?editors=0100
I'm trying to make my wordpress site always display with 100% width. My wordpress-css has no mobile specific css. When I visit the site on mobile, the site is not longer 100% width, despite the css saying that it should be. I'm currently testing stuff in the css and therefore not linking the site.
EDIT: I now tried removing all width-specifications in the entire css, the word "width" is not present anywhere in the css. The html still locks to exactly 320 pixels, same as the width specified by the iPhone4. This could be an issue with wordpress and not the css file.
The really weird thing is that if I scale up the window, and then scale it back down, it looks like it should look:
This is the css:
body, html {
font-family: "Open Sans","Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
color: #333;
min-width: 100%;
margin: auto;
}
I have the viewport-thing at the top of my html:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">
However I have not been able to add the "initial-scale=1" into the wordpress html. From what I read I doubt that this is the problem though.
Any suggestions what could be wrong? As a sidenote: It does fail to display 100% width on an actual mobile device as well, it's not just the chrome device simulator failing.
A hint could be that it seems that even wordpress itself misjudges the width of the screen, as can be seen by the wordpress header not filling up 100%
By request of rsn, I will sum up our discussion as an answer. Creds to rsn and everyone else for finding the issue!
In this case, the width itself is set properly. The problem is that things move outside the 100% width and the site tries to scale everything down to fit the stuff moving outside of 100% width. This caused everything else to scale down, including the font size of the text which I thought was an entirely different problem. So, after specifying:
.img {
max-width: 100%;
}
The site worked fine. Except for one last detail, I also has a really long link that, despite having word-wrap: break-word, ended up being wider than the width. To solve this I added:
.long-link {
word-break: break-all;
}
And now nothing moves outside the 100% width, and everything works as it should.
I am using SquareSpace for the building blocks of my site and creating some custom CSS to fine tune. I'm trying to get the gallery page to display the images with more height. At the moment they are not very big in the slider, especially when viewed on a large monitor, seems like there is a lot of wasted space.
Using Inspect Element, I found there to be some HTML styling the height and restricting it to 500px.
<div class="slideshow strip main sqs-gallery-design-strip rendered: id="yui_3_17_2_1_1441831607164_254" style="height: 500px; margin-top: 203:5px;">
Changing the height from 500px to 600px in Firebug works perfectly, so I tried to apply some custom code to in the SquareSpace site. I used:
.slideshow strip main sqs-gallery-design-strip rendered {
height: 600px;
}
The injection of code did not have a visible result on the page. Am I writing the CSS incorrectly? Is there something I'm missing here? Please help.. Thank you!
Try to clear your cache. Sometimes a cache does not refresh on a server.
To clear it on a site, just hit Ctrl+F5.
Your CSS rule is close. It should read:
.slideshow.strip.main.sqs-gallery-design-strip.rendered {
height: 600px !important;
}
