Dropdown menu is dropping too low - html

Recently I fixed my dropdown menu which used to drop with all the other un-hovered buttons also changing their positions. The current issue I just noticed accidentally. When the page is all scrolled up, i.e. I am at starting position, dropdown works as expected. But if I scroll a little bit down, and then hover over button, the dropdown appears where it was before but I am expecting it to appear below the button. This is the snap of code I am using:
.tut_navi_buttons .drop_down_navi_content {
display: none;
right: 0;
position: unset;
background-color: #f9f9f9;
min-width: 160px;
box-shadow: 0px 8px 16px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
z-index: 1;
height: 0px;
transition: height 1s ease;
}
.tut_navi_buttons:hover .drop_down_navi_content {
position: fixed;
display: block;
height: auto;
/*height: auto;*/
/*box-shadow: 0px 2px 1px grey;*/
}
#tut_navi {
overflow: hidden;
padding-top: 10px;
float: left;
padding-left: 5px;
/*display: inline-block;*/
}
.tut_navi_buttons .drop_down_navi {
overflow: hidden;
border: none;
outline: none;
color: black;
background-color: inherit;
}
.tut_navi_buttons {
width: auto;
height: 20px;
margin: 10px;
/*margin-bottom: 20px;*/
/*padding: 5px;*/
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
}
<div id='tut_navi'>
<div class="tut_navi_buttons">
<button class="drop_down_navi">Python Basics <i class="fa fa-angle-down"></i></button>
<div class="drop_down_navi_content">
Beginner
Pre-intermediate
Intermediate
</div>
</div>
Please refer to the images I am attaching as they will make it clear.
After scrolling a bit
While at top of page

Remove position:unset; replace with position:relative;
Separate the first two classes in the style sheet because it seems to be clashing

Make element with position: absolute stretch the shadow of parent?

I have a usual search as most websites do. The results are shown below on the div that is visually connected to the search input.
It looks like this:
I need to have one solid shadow for the div parent but can't figure out or find online the way to do this.
I thought that I could either make 2 separate shadows, but that will look inconsistent and just terrible. Or I could make a div below with the same height and width that will act as a shadow but that's a non-necessary complication + the .search-results div's height will change dynamically.
This is an example:
body {
background-color: gray;
}
.search-wrapper {
position: relative;
margin: 100px 100px 0px 100px;
width: 200px;
overflow: initial;
box-shadow: 0px 0px 10px 10px rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
}
.search {
width: 200px;
height: 30px;
color: white;
border-radius: 4px;
} .search input {
padding: 0;
background-color: #022222;
border: none;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
color: white;
}
.search-results {
position: absolute;
height: 150px;
width: 200px;
background-color: black;
}
<div class="search-wrapper">
<div class="search">
<input placeholder="air max . . .">
</div>
<div class="search-results">
</div>
</div>
I am sure there must be a clever and simple way to do this.
Please help,
Thank you
You don't need to use positions here and you can use FlexBox instead. It's the best way and a lot easier. Also, you can ignore all of them, they will place on top of each other because they are block-level tags/elements. (divs)
You don't need to put the input in another div parent, use it as I did.
Sorry, I couldn't understand your code, so I must write the whole code from the beginning.
EDIT
I removed display flex, cause it's not necessary.

Grid layout of divs in angular2

I have a view in my application where I would like to display thumbnails in a grid layout. When I create divs with no content they appear as desired:
When I add content to the divs, the layout goes all haywire:
I can't figure out why it is that this is happening.
I'm using a *ngFor directive for angular2:
<div class="board-thumbnail-container" *ngFor="let board of boards">
<img class="board-thumbnail" [src]="getBoardImage(board)">
<h3><span>{{board}}</span></h3>
</div>
and this is the css behind it:
.container {
width:400px;
}
.board-thumbnail-container {
position: relative;
width: 174px;
height: 174px;
margin-right: 5px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
display: inline-block;
border-style: solid;
border-color: lightblue;
border-radius: 7px;
padding: 5px;
text-align: center;
}
.board-thumbnail {
position: relative;
max-width: 160px;
max-height: 160px;
}
.board-thumbnail-container > h3 {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0px;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
}
.board-thumbnail-container > h3 > span {
color: white;
letter-spacing: -1px;
background: rgb(0, 0, 0); /* fallback color */
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7);
padding: 0px 5px 0px 5px;
}
Here is a plunker exhibiting the problem:
http://plnkr.co/edit/Trl8MJ7wuzYEgRGzy5yA?p=preview
It is working when I gave vertical-align: top to .board-thumbnail-container. Check http://plnkr.co/edit/HIiQrROahSMGggFWcnoX?p=preview
Thought of using angular flex layout?

centering a button in my menubar

I'm trying to align a button so that it stays in the center of my menu bar. The jsfiddle will show you what I mean.
this does not seem to work:
vertical-align: middle;
Here is the code: jsfiddle!
Unfortunately, vertical aligning is one of the tougher things to do in HTML/CSS, depending on the situation.
However, if you not want to use absolute heights and must have it vertically centered, you can always changed the display to table, instead of block: display: table;
I edited your original jsfiddle for a working example.
I added /* Comments */ where I either added or changed CSS.
save yourself some time and try to use bootstrap.
here is the css you can use :
.parent {
position: relative;
}
.child {
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
height: 100px;
margin-top: -50px; /* account for padding and border if not using box-sizing: border-box; */
}
but you can find a complete detailed solutions if you take a little time and go to this link :
https://css-tricks.com/centering-css-complete-guide/
Add below to your handle class
https://jsfiddle.net/420qk42v/2/
text-align:center;
.handle {
width: 100%;
background-color: #ffe2e2;
font-family: "century gothic";
opacity: 0.9;
box-sizing: border-box;
padding: 10px 5px;
cursor: pointer;
display: block;
text-align: center; /* this is the change */
}
Is that what you meant?
I did a test with the vertical align and it works if you remove the absolute positioning on the menu button.
I also made a new div around the text "menu" and then set that to position absolute while setting the handle to align the text to the right - the button will only move the right.

z-index conflict with static element

https://jsfiddle.net/0Lfzbzc5/2/
in here I am trying to make the notification box on top of the body class div but couldn't do it the logic says positioned elements should be on top of the not positioned elements but that isn't happenning
tried even making body class div relative and giving it z-index but failed too
structure of notification box is an absolute element in relative element in absolute element (for CSS animation issues)

It is on top but the background is transparent so it makes the illusion that it's not. Just set a background color as follows :
.notiBox{
z-index: 4;
position: absolute;
height: 400px;
width: 400px;
padding-top: 10px;
border-style:solid;
background:#666;
}
Check the Fiddle.
Your notification box which I believe is the element with class "notiBox" is on top. The reason why it appears not to be is because it has an inherited background-color of transparent.
If you set the background-color property to say "yellow" (for examples sake) you will see that it is on top of the element with class "body".
Does that make sense? I can explain further if you need me to.
I've updated my answer as looking at your HTML again i've realised that the element with class "notiBox" is probably the only element (and it's contents) you want to appear on top

dropdown menu is visible even if you don't have your mouse on the dropdown menu

I just created a button with a dropdown menu, you can view the demo here.
In the demo I added a black background to shopping-cart-wrapper element so you can see where the problem lies.
The problem is when you hover over the button you can keep your mouse on the black background and the dropdown menu is still visible.
I only want the dropdown menu to be visible when you hover over the button or keep your mouse on the dropdown menu.
Here is the code I have:
HTML:
<div class="shopping-cart-wrapper">
<a class="shopping-cart" href="#" alt="my-shopping-cart">My Shopping Cart (0)</a>
<div class="shopping-cart-dropdown">
<div class="empty-cart"><span>Your shopping cart is empty</span></div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
.shopping-cart-wrapper:hover .shopping-cart-dropdown {
opacity: 1;
display: block;
}
.shopping-cart-wrapper {
display: inline-block;
background: #000;
margin-top: 5px;
margin-left: 15px;
}
.shopping-cart {
border: 1px solid #d3d3d3;
color: #656565;
padding-right: 10px;
padding-top: 8px; padding-bottom: 8px;
padding-left: 40px;
font-weight: bold;
display: inline-block;
font-size: 13px;
text-align: right;
text-decoration: none;
box-shadow: 0px 1px 0px #f2f2f2;
background: #f8f8f8 url("http://placehold.it/32x32") no-repeat 0 0 ;
position: relative;
}
.shopping-cart:hover {
background: #fff url("images/cart-sprite.png") no-repeat 0 -29px ;
color: #202020;
border: 1px solid #c6c6c6;
box-shadow: 0px 1px 0px #e5e5e5;
}
.shopping-cart-dropdown {
opacity: 0;
display: none;
border: 1px solid #d3d3d3;
padding-bottom: 80px;
position: relative;
right: 49px;
width: 247px;
background: #f6f6f6;
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: bold;
}
.empty-cart{
background: #202020;
padding: 10px;
color: #fff;
text-align: center;
position: relative;
}
What's Going On
The problem here really isn't a problem, because everything is working as it is supposed to. When you hover over the container, the child is visible. Then the child is visible, the parent becomes larger to encompass it.
Current Selector:
To fix this, you have a couple options. The easiest would be to use a sibling selector instead of a parent. Select the a inside .shopping-cart-wrapper instead of .shopping-cart-wrapper itself, and use the + sibling selector.
We've got to be careful though, because we want the child to stay visible when the mouse is hovering over itself. When using the parent as a selector, this is automatic. With a sibling, we have to manually do this. We'll use both the sibling and the child itself as selectors.
Code
Working Example
Current:
.shopping-cart-wrapper:hover .shopping-cart-dropdown {
opacity: 1;
display: block;
}
Working:
.shopping-cart-wrapper a:hover + .shopping-cart-dropdown,
.shopping-cart-dropdown:hover {
opacity: 1;
display: block;
}
