Two problems:
why parent has a top margin?
why sidebar is outside of parent?
it's probably because of position:fixed but what is the way to make a sidebar non-movable on a page?
I need it to be fixed because it contains important info about long list items clicked on left side (panel).
On a large monitor, for example 1920px, the sidebar is far right, outside of body (which is 1360px max.)
I need to keep it fixed but tidy inside container.
1.) the margin on the top is more than likely due to the default browser styles. Normally browsers will put a margin around the html and/or body tags. You can reset this by putting:
html, body {
margin: 0;
}
into your css file.
2.) Please see this answer for your issue with the fixed sidebar going outside of your container as this question has already been asked and answered.

I'm trying to make a full width and height responsive home page with an image. The problem I'm encountering are padding issues. I cannot get padding to work when I display an image in css under 'background-image: url();'. The only thing that works is the margin property but it is not responsive to the height and only shows the top and the rest as I scroll down but I am trying to have the padding be responsive to the resizing of the height of the page. To show you guys more of what I am trying to achieve, I included 2 examples, the top with what I want and the second with the problem I'm facing. I've managed to get responsive padding to work while I place the img tag in my HTML but I cannot do so with the background-image property as I'm trying to put text on it.
.test img{
width: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
height: 100vh;
padding: 10px;
}
.wrapper {
background-image: url(https://images4.alphacoders.com/432/43258.jpg);
height: 100vh;
width: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
background-size: cover;
background-position: center center;
}
<div class="test">
<img src="https://images4.alphacoders.com/432/43258.jpg" alt="">
</div>
<div class="main">
<div class="wrapper"></div>
</div>

You can use margin, you just need to account for the vertical margin that will push your 100vh height out of 100vh, and you can do that with calc()
body {margin:0;}
div {
margin: 10px;
background: url('http://cdn.thedailybeast.com/content/dailybeast/articles/2015/03/31/neil-degrasse-tyson-defends-scientology-and-the-bush-administration-s-science-record/jcr:content/image.img.2000.jpg/1432067001553.cached.jpg') center top no-repeat / cover;
height: calc(100vh - 20px);
}
<div></div>
Or you can wrap the element in another element, apply padding to the outer element, and use border-box to keep the padding inside of 100vh.
body {margin:0;}
section {
height: 100vh;
box-sizing: border-box;
padding: 10px;
}
div {
background: url('http://cdn.thedailybeast.com/content/dailybeast/articles/2015/03/31/neil-degrasse-tyson-defends-scientology-and-the-bush-administration-s-science-record/jcr:content/image.img.2000.jpg/1432067001553.cached.jpg') center top no-repeat / cover;
height: 100%;
}
<section><div></div></section>
Padding does work, but you can't see it. If you put content within the div, you'd see the effects of any padding. What you want is to apply the padding to the parent, in this case .main. Padding by definition can not impact the background of the element it's applied to but rather where children sit in relation to the element's borders.
If that is somehow insufficient, you can simulate the look with box-sizing: border-box and use a 10px border that matches the body background.
Which raises the point that you may want to review the box model to learn better what margin and padding are and how they relate to elements:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_Box_Model/Introduction_to_the_CSS_box_model
madrougebeauty.com uses a "frame" that is layed on top of all elements; it has nothing to do with padding.
To achieve something like it, look at the following:
.wrapper {
background-image: url(https://images4.alphacoders.com/432/43258.jpg);
background-size: cover;
background-position: center center;
height: auto;
min-height: 100vh;
color: #fff;
box-sizing: border-box;
/* Give your content padding so nothing gets hidden under the frame */
padding: 2em;
}
.frame {
position: fixed;
z-index: 9999;
background-color: yellow;
}
.top, .bottom {
width: 100%;
height: 10px;
left: 0;
}
.left, .right {
width: 10px;
height: 100vh;
top: 0;
}
.top {
top: 0;
}
.right {
right: 0;
left: auto;
}
.bottom {
bottom: 0;
top: auto;
}
.left {
left: 0;
}
<!-- These 4 elements build a frame on top of the screen -->
<div class="frame top"></div>
<div class="frame right"></div>
<div class="frame bottom"></div>
<div class="frame left"></div>
<div class="wrapper">
<h1>Headline</h1>
<p>Your content here.</p>
</div>
My container is not touching my footer for the majority of cases and I'm not sure what's going on.
So here is my CSS code:
html {
min-height: 100%;
position: relative;
}
body {
margin: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
section {
height: 100%;
}
#container {
overflow: auto;
width: 80%;
margin: 0 auto;
background: red;
height: 100%;
}
.footer {
width: 100%;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
}
Here's my HTML:
<body>
<div id="container">
<section>
<p>Content goes here</p>
</section>
</div>
<div class="footer">Content</div>
</body>
So I have all of the heights set for parent elements,but there's still a big gap between the container and the footer. In cases where the content takes up the whole page, the footer and container ends up touching, but the content for some reason gets lost in the footer. How can I solve this issue?
Height based on percentage are tricky. vh is much better for such purposes.
Here is the solution: JSfiddle
#container {
overflow: hidden;
width: 80%;
margin: 0 auto;
background: red;
height: 100vh;
}
Make one adjustment to your CSS:
Add height: 100% to the html element.
html {
height: 100%; /* NEW */
min-height: 100%;
position: relative;
}
This will clear the way for all child elements to recognize their percentage heights, and the container will expand. Your min-height: 100% will still work because min-height overrides height.
DEMO: http://jsfiddle.net/au6tcodc/
(You'll notice a vertical scrollbar on the container in the demo. This is caused by the overflow: auto declaration in #container. If you want to remove the scrollbar switch to overflow: hidden (see all overflow values).
I would like to put footer on the bottom of the page (or bottom of the screen, if page is shorter than a screen). I am using code:
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="header-wrapper">
...
</div> <!--header-wrapper-->
<div class="clear"></div>
<div id="body-wrapper">
<div class="row960">
<div class="menu">...</div>
<div class="content">...</div>
</div> <!--row960-->
</div> <!--body-wrapper-->
<div class="clear"></div>
<div id="footer-wrapper" class="gray">
</div> <!--footer-wrapper-->
</div> <!--wrapper-->
and css:
.clear{
clear:both;
display:block;
overflow:hidden;
visibility:hidden;
width:0;
height:24px;
margin:0px
}
html, body{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
body{
background-color: #000000;
color: #FFFFFF;
font-size: 14px;
}
#wrapper{
min-height: 100%;
position: relative;
}
#header-wrapper{
height: 100px;
}
#body-wrapper{
padding-bottom: 50px;
}
#footer-wrapper{
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 50px;
}
.row960{
width: 960px;
margin: auto;
overflow: auto;
}
#menu{
width: 200px;
float: left;
}
.content{
width: 740px;
margin-left: 20px;
float: right;
}
The problem is that footer is on the bottom of the screen even if the page is longer than a screen (it covers a text). I've checked it with Firebug and body-wrapper has right height, but row960 has height of screen instead of height of page. I can't figure out how to fix it. Does any one have idea what to do?
You can see my page on http://www.domenblenkus.com/fiap/notice.php
Thanks for your help!
EDIT: I don't know if I emphasized it enough, so I would like to point it out that the main problem is that height of row960 is not right.
Hmmm, I think I have a solution that fits the requirements you stated. There are certainly other ways to do this though, so you can keep looking around if you don't agree with this method. (Also, when I looked on your site it appeared that your #wrappper element was a sibling of #footer-wrapper, and not a parent.)
So, the HTML would look like (structure copied from your site):
<div id="wrappper">
<div id="header-wrapper" class="gray">
<div class="clear"></div>
<div id="body-wrapper"></div>
<div class="clear"></div>
<div class="spacer"></div>
</div>
<div id="footer-wrapper" class="gray"></div>
Note the addition of the .spacer element at the bottom of #wrappper, it's required for this approach of the "sticky footer".
Now, CSS you'll need to add (add to any current definitions if you already have them):
body, html{
height: 100%;
}
#wrappper{
min-height: 100%;
margin-bottom: -50px;
height: auto;
}
.spacer{
height: 50px;
}
If you're wondering why I chose 50px for the height, it's because that's the height of your footer element, #footer-wrapper.
Anyways, I only really tested this in the Firebug console, so I'm not sure how it will behave in a live environment, but I'm fairly certain this will give you what you want. If this isn't what you were looking for, let me know and I'll be happy to help further!
If you want it at the bottom, then you don't need the position:absolute or bottom:0, it will be at the bottom of your div anyway.
You can try doing it using margin. Here is a fiddle of what I'm taking about: http://jsfiddle.net/8WLyP/
Basically for your HTML, place all your content inside a "container" element and then your footer will be a sibling of that element.
Then in your CSS what you will need is to give them html and body elements a min-height: 100%
You "container" element will also have min-height: 100%
You will then need to give your footer a heightof X, in my example it's 50 pixels.
The "container" element will need to have margin-bottom: -50px or whatever value you give the height of the footer.
With all that done, make sure you don't give "container" and "footer" any other margins or paddings than the ones shown, if you need to give them, then you will need to give it to the child elements, in my example p element.
With this technique, as opposed to position: fixed the footer will stick to the bottom of the window if the content is too short, and it will move with the content when the content is bigger than the window/viewport.
HTML:
<div id="container">
<header>
<p>Header</p>
</header>
<section>
<p>Section</p>
</section>
</div>
<footer>
<p>Footer</p>
</footer>
CSS:
html, body, header, footer, section, p, div {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
p {
padding: 5px 10px;
}
header {
width: 100%;
background: #f00;
color: #fff;
}
section {
width: 100%;
height: 200px;
background :#0f0;
color: #fff;
}
#container {
width: 100%;
min-height: 100%;
margin-bottom: -50px;
}
footer {
width: 100%;
background :#00f;
color: #fff;
height: 50px;
}
You want to place the footer at the bottom of the content. BUT: You want to have it at the bottom of the viewport (window) if the content above it is shorter.
So, try this:
the CSS:
#footer-wrapper {
position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 50px;
}
#body-wrapper {
position: relative;
height: 100%;
}
… and the JavaScript (jQuery):
var bodyWrap = $('#body-wrapper'),
footerWrap = $('#footer-wrapper'),
windowHeight = $(window).height();
var heightRemaining = parseInt(windowHeight - bodyWrap.outherHeight() - footerWrap.outerHeight());
if (heightRemaining > 0) bodyWrap.css('min-height', heightRemaining);
Didn't test it due to little time.
Give it a try.
I'm trying to make a simple DIV layout compatible with IE, and it's giving me hell.
Here's the basic layout I'm working for:
<div id="body" style="background: blue;">
<div id="header">
HEADER
</div>
<div id="content" style="height: 88%;">
CONTENT HERE
</div>
<div id="footer">
FOOTER
</div>
</div>
I'm using CSS rounded corners on the Body div, and I have a navbar and footer info in #footer as well as a tabbed main navbar in #header.
My main problem has been making the #content div stretch vertically to fit the full page when I only have a small amount of content WITHOUT creating vertical scrollbars.
If I make #content height: 100%; the header and footer cause the page's height to go above 100% and triggers scrollbars.
Making #content's height 88% does the trick in FireFox, but there are two problems with this solution:
a) It's an ugly hack
b) It doesn't work in IE (of course).
Anyone have ideas on how to accomplish this? I assume is should be a fairly common situation for web designers out there.
There you go, try this template, it's really simple and i think it would solve your problem.
HTML:
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="header">
<div id="header_900">
<p>header</p>
</div><!--header_900-->
</div>
<div id="content">
<div id="content_900">
<p>content</p>
</div> </div>
</div><!--wrapper-->
<div id="footer">
<div id="footer_900">
<p>footer</p>
</div> </div>
CSS
body, html{
height: 100%;
}
body, p {
margin: 0; padding: 0;
}
#wrapper {
min-height: 100%;
}
* html #wrapper {
height: 100%;
}
/*HEADER------------------------------------*/
#header {
width: 100%;
background: #666;
}
#header_900 {
width: 960px;
height: 100px;
margin: 0 auto;
position: relative;
overflow: hidden;
}
/*FOOTER------------------------------------*/
#footer {
width: 100%;
height: 100px;
margin: -100px auto 0 auto; /*THIS SHOULD BE EQUAL TO THE FOOTERS HEIGHT*/
position: relative;
background: #666;
}
#footer_900 {
width: 960px;
height: 100px;/*THIS IS THE FOOTERS HEIGHT*/
position: relative;
margin: 0 auto;
}
/*CONTENT------------------------------------*/
#content {
width: 100%;
padding-bottom: 100px; /*THIS SHOULD BE EQUAL TO THE FOOTERS HEIGHT*/
}
#content_900 {
width: 960px;
margin: 0 auto;
overflow: hidden;
}
I don't think there is an official way to accomplish this unless you use quirks mode. If you use quirks mode (no doctype), it would look something like this:
html, body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
height: 100%:
}
#content {
height: 100%:
}
Maybe what you're looking for is an adapted version of something like this: http://www.alistapart.com/comments/fauxcolumns
I'm having a problem with a webpage.
I'm using the min-height property to place the footer at the bottom of the page (if content is not long enough) and after the content (if content is longer than the window). There are plenty of tutorials that describe this method and I too did it this way.
html, body { height: 100%; }
.container {
min-height: 100%;
position: relative;
}
.footer {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
}
and some other code. It works fine then.
The problem occurs when I create two additional divs to add drop shadows to the container div. I have:
<div class="left-shadow">
<div class="right-shadow">
<div class="container">
...
</div>
</div>
<div>
I figured html and body height remain 100%, left-shadow div have min-height of 100%, and right-shadow and container have height of 100% (I'm assuming that the 100% will mean 100% of the height of the parent element).
However, it does not work (in Firefox, it works in Chrome, I don't really care about IE), and I've tried all sorts of combinations to get it right, but to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: (partial code)
<html>
<head>
...
</head>
<body>
<div class="left-shadow">
<div class="right-shadow">
<div class="container">
<div class="header">
header content
</div>
<div class="content" >
content goes here
</div>
<div class="footer">
footer content here
</div>
</div> <!-- end container div -->
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
And the relevant css:
html {
overflow-y: scroll;
height: 100%;
}
body {
margin: 0 0 0 0;
height:100%;
}
.left-shadow
{
width: 1084px;
background: url("images/left-shadow.png") repeat-y left;
/* both bg images are 30px wide. 1024 + 30 + 30 = 1084px */
margin: auto;
min-height: 100%;
}
.right-shadow
{
width: inherit;
background: url("images/right-shadow.png") repeat-y right;
margin: auto;
height: 100%;
}
.container {
position: relative;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
margin-bottom: 0;
width: 1024px;
height: 100%;
}
EDIT 2:
So I just found out that this question belongs at doctype. So from now on, I'll ask questions in the right place. But since this is already up, I'd ask that people respond anyway without getting into where questions should be posted. Thanks.
First of all, to create a shadow effect use CSS. If CSS solution isn't what you're looking for then maybe try to set a shadow as a background image of .container. Right now your mark-up is overloaded by unnecessary elements.
But if that extra mark-up is the only way to do what you want to do, then try something like this:
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
html, body, .shadow, #container {
min-height: 100%;
}
#container {
position: relative;
}
#content {
padding-bottom: 55px;
}
#footer {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 50px;
background: #0a0;
}
And HTML mark-up (these shadow divs make it look terrible):
<body>
<div id="shadow-left" class="shadow">
<div id="shadow-right" class="shadow">
<div id="container">
<div id="content">
Page contents
</div>
<div id="footer">
Footer
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
I really recommend using this simple solution for a "sticky footer" instead. Just gets rid of problems: http://ryanfait.com/sticky-footer/
All that it requires is for you to be able to define a fixed height for your footer, which should be no problem in virtually all cases.
Works in all common browsers!
