I am trying to create a footer for my simple webpage and am having some trouble with an element, which is over extending over the edge of the container. I assume this is a problem with the width.
I am trying to get the <hr> tag to extend the entirety of the width of the column. For reference I am using the MaterializeCSS framework for the containers, rows and columns.
Code
HTML:
<div class="container">
<div class="row"><!-- Other Content --></div>
<div class="row"><!-- Other Content --></div>
<div class="row"><!-- Other Content --></div>
<div class="footer-message">
<hr>
Made with <span style="color: #e25555;">♥</span> by Adam
</div>
</div>
CSS:
.footer-message{
position:absolute;
width: 100%;
padding:5px;
bottom:0px;
}
I am using a position of absolute to enable to align it to the bottom of the screen and I set the width to be 100% as I understand that it would inherit the width of the parent which in this case, is a div with a class of container.
What am I doing wrong? Thank you in advance!
Edit: Old screenshot
Add position: relative to the Container, then add left: 0; right: 0 to footer-message class.
Hope it help
I would use CSS Grid for this, see the following snippet:
html,
body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
text-align: center;
font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
}
article {
min-height: 100%;
display: grid;
grid-template-rows: auto 1fr auto;
grid-template-columns: 100%;
}
header {
background: #5170a9;
color: white;
padding: 1rem;
}
main {
color: #444;
padding: 1rem;
}
footer {
background: #182f58;
color: white;
padding: 1rem;
}
<article>
<header>
Page Header
</header>
<main>
Hi, there's not much content, yet. You can write in here to expand the container.
</main>
<footer>
All rights reversed.
<br>
I am always at the bottom of the page
</footer>
</article>
make your footer like in the materialize documentation example: https://materializecss.com/footer.html
<footer class="page-footer">
<div class="footer-copyright">
<div class="container">
© 2014 Copyright Text
</div>
</div>
</footer>
I tried to reproduce it, but your code without the CSS works fine for me. I am not sure if you want the <hr> to fill the whole width of just the container width.

my left sidebar has no structure and I want it to be like a menu with a background color. I also have no idea how to make the changes in CSS so I can change the width and height...etc
here is the code for the sidebar
<div class="sidebar">
<nav>
<h1>Menu</h1>
<ul>
<li><strong>Home</strong></li>
<li><strong>Workshop </strong></li>
<li><strong>Team </strong></li>
<li><strong>Resources </strong></li>
<li><strong>Publication </strong></li>
<li><strong>Opportunities </strong></li>
</div><!-- /sidebar -->
CSS syntax can be called for in three ways.
Internal CSS: <style> tags, which must be underneath a <head> element that precede your <body>.
External CSS: Linking external CSS with just the CSS syntax, void of any HTML tags. You connect the two documents with a <link> tag using the href attribute
Block-level/Inline elements: CSS can be placed inside of block-level elements and inline elements (a list of which appear here)
Here is how to color your sidebar's background using the first method:
<head>
<style>
.sidebar {
background-color: gray;
}
</style>
</head>
And here's one way to add containers/boxes around your sidebar using the first method:
<head>
<style>
.box {
background-color: #eee;
margin-top: 5px;
padding: 10px;
text-align: center;
}
.sidebar {
display: block;
width: 150px;
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
}
.row:after {
clear: both;
content: "";
display: table;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="row">
<div class="sidebar">
<div class="box">
<strong>Home</strong>
</div>
<div class="box">
<strong>Workshop</strong>
</div>
<div class="box">
<strong>Team</strong>
</div>
<div class="box">
<strong>Resources </strong>
</div>
<div class="box">
<strong>Publication</strong>
</div>
<div class="box">
<strong>Opportunities</strong>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
I'm not sure if this is exactly what you're looking for, but you can change the font, margins, and padding underneath the <style> tag however you want.
Also, I would suggest going through w3school's CSS introduction just to familiarize yourself with how it all works. Another tip: Make sure all of your starting tags have the necessary end tags! For example, in the code you wrote a closing </ul> and </nav> are missing.
Okay I do not know wether I have started completely wrong or just do not know how to get it right.
I want the layout of my website to be like this:
I put a div called 'myWrap' around the header and the content. And added this css:
.myWrap {
position: absolute;
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
background: white;
top: 2%;
left: 2%;
right: 2%;
}
.footer {
position: absolute;
background: #363130;
margin-top: 2%;
height: 300px;
left: 0;
width: 100vw;
}
And the footer is not in the myWrap-div. But now it is just floating behind the content because the position of the myWrap is absolute.
How do I put the header and content in the normal flow but infront of the background?
I structured the html like that:
<div class="row container-fluid myWrap">
CONTENT
<div class="container-fluid footer">
FOOTER
</div>
</div>
If I put the footer out of the myWrap div it starts floating around on the top or just overlaps the content/header
Change .myWrap to position: relative, your footer is getting the position absolute of the body, because It dosn't have a parent element with a relative position CSS atribute.
.myWrap {
position: relative;
}
With this, you will get your footer always on the bottom of myWrap. Then you can play with, the top/bottom properties and place it where you want ;)
I have created a Bootply to show it how it's working: http://www.bootply.com/8Wmx3CJHFv
Try this
<div class="myWrap">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
Then add your footer after the end of the container
Personally, I would not work with your own wrapper. Bootstrap made them with a reason and that reason is they will work perfectly for responsive viewports.
I'd suggest you enhance something like this:
HTML
<html>
<body>
<header>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-12">
// content here
</div>
</div>
</div>
</header>
<section id="content">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-12">
// content here
</div>
</div>
</div>
</section>
<footer>
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-12">
// content here
</div>
</div>
</div>
</footer>
</body>
</html>
CSS
body {background-color: #FFF;}
footer {background-color: #FFF;}
header {background-color: #FFF;}
.container-fluid {padding: 0 0;}
Just make sure you remove the padding for the .container-fluid. And a tip: if you ever feel like creating your own wrapper, don't position them with absolute, but with relative. Otherwise it won't work well on all viewports.
You mentioned that you are using bootstrap, in bootstrap the container class wraps your data into a wrapper that has a fixed width on each screen-device-width so you will need to add a container div for the header and the content without adding it inside the footer div.
If you are using bootstrap framework you will need to use these following classes for these div's as the following code:
<div class="site-container">
<div class="header">
<div class="container">
</div>
</div>
<div class="content">
<div class="container">
</div>
</div>
<div class="footer">
</div>
</div>
<style>
body{
background:url(../image.jpg);
}
header {
max-width:600px;
width:100%;
display:block;
background:#ccc;
height:250px; //header height no need to mention in your work
border:1px solid #000;
margin:auto;
}
#content {
max-width:600px;
width:100%;
display:block;
background:#ddd;
height:500px; //content height no need to mention in your work
border:1px solid #000;
margin:auto;
}
footer {
width:100%;
height: 300px;
left: 0;
background:#000;
}
</style>
<header>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-12">
// Header
</div>
</div>
</div>
</header>
<section id="content">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-12">
// Content
</div>
</div>
</div>
</section>
<footer>
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-12">
// content here
</div>
</div>
</div>
</footer>
Demo: https://jsfiddle.net/q4Lcjmsy/3/
This is my css:
html{
position: relative;
height: 100%;
min-height: 100%;
}
body {
/* Margin bottom by footer height */
min-height: 100%;
margin-bottom: 60px;
}
.container {
padding-top: 50px;
}
.footer {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
/* Set the fixed height of the footer here */
height: 60px;
background-color: #f5f5f5;
}
.footer p{
line-height: 60px;
}
.messages {
/*background-color: blue;*/
min-height: 100% !important;
height: 100% !important;
}
This is my markup (using blaze for template rendering):
<template name="messages">
<div class="container messages">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-3 conversations">
{{> message}}
</div>
<div class="col-md-9 conversation-holder">
<h1>John Doe</h1>
<div class="conversation">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</template>
This is my output:
What I want is that the line between the list of conversations and the title(John Doe( on the right) should be of 100% height and that any overflow should be scrollable.
I have set the min-height and height of the .messages container to be 100% with the !important but it does not work i do not know why.
How do I make it 100%? Thanks.
P.S: Here is the template after rendering:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="__blaze-root">
<nav class="navbar navbar-inverse navbar-fixed-top">
<!-- navbar stuff removed for better understanding-->
</nav>
<div class="container messages">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-3 conversations">
<a href="#">
<div class="message">
<div class="conversation-title">
<img class="pull-left img-circle" height="50px" src="/images/dummy-profile-pic.png" width="auto">
<p class="pull-left">John Doe</p>
</div>
</div></a>
</div>
<div class="col-md-9 conversation-holder">
<h1>John Doe</h1>
<div class="conversation"></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<footer class="footer">
<p class="text-muted">Place sticky footer content here.</p>
</footer>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Just realized that you are using bootstrap framework. You have to cascade the height from the parent div to the inner div till it reaches the .message element.
Otherwise, you can't set the height as 100%. (Any padding or margin in the intermediate div would introduce vertical scroll)
Fiddle that shows the 100% to 2 level down from the body tag.
http://jsfiddle.net/skelly/zrbgw/
Solution 2: You have to use position:absolute for .message
Solution 3: You can use position:fixed
But solution 2 & 3 will remove the elements out of the content flow resulting in need of setting a proper parent height.
I've just started coding my first bootstrap website and after looking around still didn't manage to find a solution. It is my first time posting on stackoverflow so hopefully this questions makes sense for other people too.
I'm looking to make my footer 100% wide while centering the content with CSS.
<footer class="container">
<div class="row">
<nav class="col-sm-3">
<p>1</p>
<p>2</p>
<p>3</p>
</nav>
<nav class="col-sm-3">
<h3>Plan du Site </h3>
<table style="">
</table>
</nav>
<nav class="col-sm-3">
<h4>some H4</h4>
</nav>
<nav class="col-sm-3">
<h3>some h3</h3>
</nav>
</div>
</footer>
CSS I have so far:
footer{
background-color: #3D383D;
padding: 15px 100px 15px 100px;
min-width: 100%;}
body > footer > div {
align-content: center;
width: 100%;
}
Use bootstrap class text-center for centering content inside a div, and change container class on footer to container-fluid. Furthermore remove these lines from you css because they are not necessary:
body > footer > div {
align-content: center;
width: 100%;
}
As the class .container has a set width, you cannot make it 100% of the viewport unless forcing it to. Use the class .container-fluid

I am trying to change the background image of a jumbotron I have on one of my views and it just isnt working. I have looked at numerous posts on stack, and tried all of the suggested solutions but none of them are working for me.

CSS:
/* ============================================= JUMBOTRON ============================================= */
.jumbotron {
background: url('/img/congruent_pentagon.png') no-repeat center center !important;
background-size: cover;
}
.nav {
text-align: center;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
background-color: red;
height: 10%;
}
.nav li {
display: inline-block;
margin-right: 5%;
margin-left: 5%;
}
.pink {
background-color: #f99;

.green {
background-color: #9f9;
}
section {
padding-bottom: 20px;
}
My folders are structured as follows:
FOLDER
--css
--style.css
--dist
--img
--congruent_pentagon.png
--header.php
--index.php
I have tried to change the url to go see if that was the issue, but that did not fix the problem either. The weird part is the the background right now is grey, but not displaying the image that I want it to.
EDIT: now displaying entire html/css doc. I am using php to load in nav bars but I just combined them here to make it easier to look at.
The issue is related to the url to your image, change it to /img/congruent_pentagon.png
Online example: http://jsfiddle.net/tthLjchm/1/
Css:
.jumbotron {
background: url('http://getbootstrap.com/assets/img/sass-less.png') no-repeat center center !important;
height: 50%;
margin-top: 10px;
color: black;
}
.jumbotron p, h1 {
text-align: center;
}
The issue was that the image had to be placed within my css folder.
