Adjust <nz-date-picker> (Ng-Zorro) width - html

I'm using Ng-Zorro for template styling and am currently implementing an date picker, which I would like to have sitting flush with the dropdown menu above it.
I'd like to manually adjust the width of the date-picker within the template, but I'm seeing this link saying that the width cannot be adjusted...
Trying out html in-line styling did not do anything, so now I'm curious if anyone has been able to readjust the width of the nz-date-picker with Ng-Zorro.

May be you need to set the <nz-date-picker> display:block first
then set the span class="ant-calendar-picker" width:100%
hope this could help u.

Adding the following should work to your component's styling should work for you. The additional styling mentioned in the other response is not necessary for me.
nz-date-picker {
display: block;
}

Delete a CSS propery you dont have access to edit

I have made a complete Bootstrap grid system. I am now uploading my code to a CMS system, and can see there is some CSS from the backend, there is messing up my grid.
If I untick the following code in the inspector window, everything is looking perfect. When the following code is ticked in the inspector window everything is messed up. Is it possible to overwrite this code somehow, so the class is not used?
.cms-area img {
width: 100%;
}
You can use !important in such cases but use it sparingly. Best is to remove the unwanted code and not use !important. !important might cause issues later that are difficult to debug. If possible include your css after other css is included in the code. In CSS, rules that appear later take precedence over earlier rules
Edit:
Set width to auto instead of 100% to fix your alignment issue
Below given is the ideal way to manage css since it allows you to attribute your style content and lets you override the style already applied elsewhere.
.cms-area .your-class img {
width: <your choice>;
}

Why won't my paypal button center in my page

So I have a simple page:
www.kensandbox.info/centerthis
This is a simple html/css page and I'm trying to add a paypal button.
The problem is that I can't figure out how to center the button? I've tried adding the following:
<div align="center"> form code here </div>
No dice. I've even tried adding the center tag before the form.
The site code (simple html and css file) can be downloaded here:
www.kensandbox.info/centerthis/centerthis.zip
My guess is that one of the other CSS elements is overriding my change.
What am I missing?
Thanks
there is a float:left in form input, form .btn inside mycss.css
Add float:none to that input if you want to override.
Without looking at your code I would say the best way to center a div is usually make sure it's displayed as a block element (should be by default) and that its width is specified; then finally apply margin: auto.
e.g.
<div class="container">
...
<div class="centered-element"> form code here </div>
...
</div>
where
container {
width: 200px;
}
centered-element {
width: 150px;
margin: auto;
display: block; /* to make sure it isn't being mucked up by your other css */
float: none; /* to make sure it isn't being mucked up by your other css */
}
Edit:
I say to do it this way because, like I now see someone has commented, <div align="center"> is deprecated and so is the <center> tag. To expand, this is because your HTML should only be used to create the structure and semantics of your web page, and CSS should be used for the presentational aspects of it. Keeping the two separate as best as you can will save you a lot of time in the long run.
Also it's best to design your CSS in a way where you shouldn't have to set display: block; on a div (because a div is already a block element) and your shouldn't have to unset a float by using float: none;. For more on a good way to do that, improve your workflow, save yourself some time, and generally be awesome, check into object-oriented CSS a.k.a. ooCSS
I found the answer and I want to thank the two individuals who took the time to answer.
The thing I didn't understand is how to look at a web page and see what CSS code was driving the formatting.
Some research lead me to a Chrome plug in named CSSViewer. Using this plugin and the information from the answer I was able to identify a float left css element that I simply had to change to a float center.
Thanks again for the help.

How to make pure css floating tooltips (absolutely positioned span) dynamically resize to accommodate text

I recently had an idea for using the CSS pseudo-class :hover to display a styled tooltip when the mouse is hovered over a link.
The basic code for the link looks like this:
.hasTooltip {
position:relative;
}
.hasTooltip span {
display:none;
}
.hasTooltip:hover span {
display:block;
background-color:black;
border-radius:5px;
color:white;
box-shadow:1px 1px 3px gray;
position:absolute;
padding:5px;
top:1.3em;
left:0px;
max-width:200px; /* I don't want the width to be too large... */
}
This link has a tooltip!<span>This is the tooltip text!</span>
The result is exactly what I want, but with one annoying problem: the span does not expand to accommodate text, and if I don't specify a width, the text is squashed.
I did some searching on Google, found a couple examples of work people had done (this example is creepily similar to what I've gotten), but no one seems to have addressed the span width problem I'm having.
I know this answer is extremely late, but it appears the key to your issue would be to use:
white-space: nowrap;
inside of your span, and get rid of any sort of width definition. Of course the drawback to this will be that the tooltip will only be able to support a single line. If you want a multiline solution you will most likely have to use javascript.
Here is an example of of this method:
http://jsbin.com/oxamez/1/edit
An added bonus is that this works all the way down to IE7. If you do not need to support IE7, I would suggest folding the span, and img styles into a :before, and :after for the .tooltip. Then you can populate the text using the data-* attribute.
I don't think there's a perfect solution to this problem with pure CSS. The first problem is that when you place the span inside the a tag the span only wants to expand as far as the width of the link. If you place the span after the the a it's possible to get close to what you're trying to do but you'll have to set the margin-top: 1.3em and then have to set a negative margin to slide the tooltip left. However, it's going to be a fixed setting so it won't sit exactly at the start of each link.
I whipped up a jQuery solution that sets left dynamically (and a nice little fade effect for good measure).
Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/wdm954/9jaZL/7/
$('.hasTooltip').hover(function() {
var offset = $(this).offset();
$(this).next('span').fadeIn(200).addClass('showTooltip');
$(this).next('span').css('left', offset.left + 'px');
}, function() {
$(this).next('span').fadeOut(200);
});
These tool tips can also be integrated into a word press theme easily. Just copy the CSS into your style. Css file and when creating your posts, just take help of the HTML code and create your own tool tips. Rest is all styling, which can be altered according to your own choice. You may also use images inside the tool tip boxes.
http://www.handycss.com/how/how-to-create-a-pure-css-tooltip/
Even though this question is a bit older already, I would suggest the following compromise:
Just use max-width: 200px; and min-width: 300%; or so,
whereas the min-width could result higher than the max-width.
Just figure it out.
This way you could not have entirely liquid tooltips but the width would stand in kind of a correlation with the width of the containing link element.
In terms of optical pleasantness this approach could be of value.
edit:
Well I must admit it is nonsense what I wrote. When the min-width can be higher than the max-width, there is no sense to it.
So just putting the min-width in percent would achieve what I tried to suggest.
Sorry for that.
I found this and it was working for me. It's a good solution when you have a lot of elements and jquery plugins on the same page and you can't work with
Text <span>Tooltip</span>

My textarea won't accept any width attributes

for some odd reason the text area I have in my site won't accept the width I tell it to, I've tried to select it three times in the CSS just to make sure!
Here is a jsfiddle example that shows what I want, and here is the page where it doesn't want to work. I have searched through the CSS to find any conflicting textarea properties, but there are none.
Thanks for the help!
Edit: If you have Firebug, don't forget about it, and use it!
In one of your CSS files, you specified textarea { min-width: 40em; }.
You have min-width: 40em for all textarea elements.

Make input invisible through css?

I have a form where depending on the website's brand one of two input fields should be visible at one given spot.
I figured I just put both input fields in the same container and then through my stylesheet set one of them to display:none;
This does hide the field, but it still makes it take up space.
I also tried setting the height and width to 0 or setting visibility to hidden or collapse but none of those worked.
Untill now all the branding things could be done with css style sheets so I would like to keep it that way.
The solution should at least be supported in IE6 & up, Firefox 2 & up and Chrome (latest).
why don't you use input type="hidden" ?
What about setting the invisible input field to position: absolute; which should take it out of the rendering flow.
However, setting it to display: none should in theory do the same...
<style>
.hideme
{
display:none;
visibility:hidden;
}
.showme
{
display:inline;
visibility:visible;
}
</style>
<input type="text" name="mytext" class="hideme">
You can either set class="hideme" to hide your control or class="showme" to show your control. You can set this toggeling using JavaScript or server side coding.
This does hide the field, but it still
makes it take up space.
This shouldn't happen; display: none should cause the element to not be included in the flow. Check the rest of your CSS (try using Firebug to figure out where the extra "space", which is probably just padding or margin of some surrounding element, is coming from).
Using the visibility property takes up rendering space even if the element is not visible. Instead of using visivility you have to use display property.
You can set the display to none if you want to hide the element and display to block or inline if you want to show them.
To have a look on display check this
If setting your display property doesn't solve your problem, then I think the textboxes might be absolutely positioned. It might be the reason for the layout not to be changed.
Can you please post the complete code?
You can do this if you want to isolate the css code from other input:
input[type="checkbox"] {
display: none;
}
You can also further isolate it from the same type by indicating another class.
I'm not too familiar with CSS, but you can try implementing JQuery which combines Javascript and CSS to let you do stuff like that with relative ease.
