rows overlapping in CSS Grid Layout - html

How can I prevent the footer row from overlapping the content row?
This is what I'm getting:
body {
display: grid;
grid-template-rows: 3.7rem auto auto;
grid-template-columns: 3rem 3fr 2fr;
}
*[role="banner"] {
grid-row: 1;
grid-column: 2/4;
background-color: green;
height: 3rem;
}
*[role="main"] {
grid-row: 2;
grid-column: 2;
background-color: yellow;
height: 100px;
}
*[role="contentinfo"] {
grid-row: 3;
grid-column: 2/3;
border-top: 1px solid black;
}
*[role="contentinfo"] img {
height: 100px;
}
<div role="banner"></div>
<article role="main"><p>Some Text.</p><p>Some more text</p><p>the last text</p></article>
<footer role="contentinfo"><img src="https://s14-eu5.ixquick.com/cgi-bin/serveimage?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdata.motor-talk.de%2Fdata%2Fgalleries%2F0%2F147%2F9424%2F43109894%2Fbild--7008737403287221413.jpg&sp=6a4eaf3bd8ff58ca9d9bba2e3519888e"></footer>

The footer (row 3) is overlapping the article (row 2) because you have a fixed height on the article:
[role="main"] { height: 100px; }
The overrides the auto height you have specified on the grid container with:
grid-template-rows: 3.7rem auto auto
Once you remove the height rule, the overlap is gone.
body {
display: grid;
grid-template-rows: 3.7rem auto auto;
grid-template-columns: 3rem 3fr 2fr;
}
*[role="banner"] {
grid-row: 1;
grid-column: 2/4;
background-color: green;
height: 3rem;
}
*[role="main"] {
grid-row: 2;
grid-column: 2;
background-color: yellow;
/* height: 100px; <-------- REMOVE */
}
*[role="contentinfo"] {
grid-row: 3;
grid-column: 2/3;
border-top: 1px solid black;
}
*[role="contentinfo"] img {
height: 100px;
}
<div role="banner"></div>
<article role="main"><p>Some Text.</p><p>Some more text</p><p>the last text</p></article>
<footer role="contentinfo"><img src="https://s14-eu5.ixquick.com/cgi-bin/serveimage?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdata.motor-talk.de%2Fdata%2Fgalleries%2F0%2F147%2F9424%2F43109894%2Fbild--7008737403287221413.jpg&sp=6a4eaf3bd8ff58ca9d9bba2e3519888e"></footer>

display: grid aligning divs

I have 3 divs in 3 columns of a grid and I want the middle div to stay static when zoomed in. The one on the right and left growing with the zoom
HTML
<mdiv class="dvCenter">
<div class="dvCenter1"></div>
<div class="dvCenter2"></div>
<div class="dvCenter3"></div>
</div>
CSS
.dvCenter{
background-color: black;
height: 110px;
align-items: center;
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 40% 20% 40%;
grid-template-rows: 100%;
}
.dvCenter1{
background-color: blue;
height: 80%;
grid-row: 1;
grid-column: 1;
}
.dvCenter2{
background-color: brown;
height: 100%;
grid-row: 1;
grid-column: 2;
}
.dvCenter3{
background-color: blue;
height: 80%;
grid-row: 1;
grid-column: 3;
}
I think what you want is to have the page start by having the .dvCenter2 div to have 20% width and then stays as the current width when the page grows. But % is a relative unit and when the screen grows bigger, the 20% is also bigger than the original 20%.
I can't think of a pure CSS way to do this but you can use javascript to query the current size of the container and modify the grid-template-column. Check the demo below. Hope this helps!
$(".dvCenter").css("grid-template-columns", "1fr " + $(".dvCenter2").width() + "px 1fr");
$("#btn").click(function() {
$(".dvCenter").toggleClass("enlarge");
});
.dvCenter{
background-color: black;
height: 110px;
width: 50%;
align-items: center;
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 1fr 20% 1fr;
grid-template-rows: 100%;
}
.dvCenter1{
background-color: blue;
height: 80%;
grid-row: 1;
grid-column: 1;
}
.dvCenter2{
background-color: brown;
height: 100%;
grid-row: 1;
grid-column: 2;
}
.dvCenter3{
background-color: blue;
height: 80%;
grid-row: 1;
grid-column: 3;
}
.enlarge {
width: 100%;
}

CSS grid item width larger than parent frame

I need to achieve a grid item to be wider than the grid frame.
However, it seems that this is not possible with a standard way.
Any idea?
.grid {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 200px 200px 200px;
}
.grid-item {
position: absolute;
width: 300px;
}
As you put it, the item is already wider that its grid box. There is no need to add position absolute. For better understanding of what is going on, while working on grid, it is recomended to use firefox since it help you visualize every grid line.
.grid {
display: grid;
background-color: red;
grid-template-columns: 200px 200px 200px;
}
.grid-item1 {
background-color: blue;
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
}
.grid-item2 {
background-color: green;

Placing the footer out of view using CSS grid

I have a header that is 70px high, the main content which I want to fill the rest of the screen and then a 70px footer. I am trying to find the most simple approach of hiding a footer. This works with the footer in view - see jsfiddle and snippet below:
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
*,
*::before,
*::after {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
body {
display: grid;
margin: 0px;
grid-gap: 10px;
height: 100vh;
grid-template-columns: [side__nav] 250px [main] 1fr;
grid-template-rows: [header] 70px auto [footer] 70px;
}
.header {
grid-column: main;
grid-row: 1;
background: pink;
}
.side__nav {
grid-column: side__nav;
grid-row: 1/span 3;
background: red;
}
.content {
grid-column: main;
grid-row: 2;
background: green;
}
.footer {
grid-column: main;
grid-row: 3;
background: purple;
opacity: 0.5;
}
.a {
grid-column: col/span 2;
grid-row: row;
}
.b {
grid-column: col 3/span 2;
grid-row: row;
}
.c {
grid-column: col/span 2;
grid-row: row 2;
}
.d {
grid-column: col 3/span 2;
grid-row: row 2;
display: grid;
grid-gap: 10px;
grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr;
}
.e {
grid-column: 1/3;
grid-row: 1;
}
.f {
grid-column: 1;
grid-row: 2;
}
.g {
grid-column: 2;
grid-row: 2;
}
<header class="header">header</header>
<nav class="side__nav">side__nav</nav>
<content class="content">content</content>
<footer class="footer">footer</footer>
But I want to push it off screen so I can use a button to show when needed. I have tried using grid-template-rows: [header] 70px calc(100vh - 70px) [footer] 70px
which does give me the effect I want see jsfiddle and snippet below:
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
*, *::before, *::after {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
body {
display: grid;
margin: 0px;
grid-gap: 10px;
height: 100vh;
grid-template-columns: [side__nav] 250px [main] 1fr;
grid-template-rows: [header] 70px calc(100vh - 70px) [footer] 70px;
}
.header {
grid-column: main;
grid-row: 1;
background: pink;
}
.side__nav {
grid-column: side__nav;
grid-row: 1/span 3;
background: red;
}
.content {
grid-column: main;
grid-row: 2;
background: green;
}
.footer {
grid-column: main;
grid-row: 3;
background: purple;
opacity: 0.5;
}
.a {
grid-column: col/span 2;
grid-row: row;
}
.b {
grid-column: col 3/span 2;
grid-row: row;
}
.c {
grid-column: col/span 2;
grid-row: row 2;
}
.d {
grid-column: col 3/span 2;
grid-row: row 2;
display: grid;
grid-gap: 10px;
grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr;
}
.e {
grid-column: 1/3;
grid-row: 1;
}
.f {
grid-column: 1;
grid-row: 2;
}
.g {
grid-column: 2;
grid-row: 2;
}
<header class="header">header</header>
<nav class="side__nav">side__nav</nav>
<content class="content">content</content>
<footer class="footer">footer</footer>
But the problem with that is, If I use grid-gap: 10px I have to
calculate that in grid-template-rows which then gets messy if I add
more sections.
For instance, 3 sections will have 2 gaps, if I set the gap as 10px, the total will be 20px, plus the 70px for the footer meaning a total of 90px. If someone takes over the code they need to know that they need to add this manually to the grid-template-row line which I know will get missed. Anyone have a simple idea that I am missing?
You can remove your footer from the explicit grid (change your explicit grid row definition into grid-template-rows: [header] 70px 1fr and remove grid-row: 3 from footer) and set the grid container height to calc(100vh + 70px) and set the implicit grid row (which is your footer height) using grid-auto-rows: 70px.
See demo below with vanilla CSS:
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
*, *::before, *::after {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
body {
display: grid;
margin: 0px;
grid-gap: 10px;
height: calc(100vh + 70px); /* adding footer height */
grid-template-columns: [side__nav] 250px [main] 1fr;
grid-template-rows: [header] 70px 1fr; /* removed footer from here */
grid-auto-rows: 70px; /* implicit grid height - footer height */
}
.header {
grid-column: main;
grid-row: 1;
background: pink;
}
.side__nav {
grid-column: side__nav;
grid-row: 1/span 3;
background: red;
}
.content {
grid-column: main;
grid-row: 2;
background: green;
}
.footer {
grid-column: main;
/*grid-row: 3;*/
background: purple;
opacity: 0.5;
}
.a {
grid-column: col/span 2;
grid-row: row;
}
.b {
grid-column: col 3/span 2;
grid-row: row;
}
.c {
grid-column: col/span 2;
grid-row: row 2;
}
.d {
grid-column: col 3/span 2;
grid-row: row 2;
display: grid;
grid-gap: 10px;
grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr;
}
.e {
grid-column: 1/3;
grid-row: 1;
}
.f {
grid-column: 1;
grid-row: 2;
}
.g {
grid-column: 2;
grid-row: 2;
}
<header class="header">header</header>
<nav class="side__nav">side__nav</nav>
<content class="content">content</content>
<footer class="footer">footer</footer>
But again you'll have to do those messy calculations when new sections are added to the grid. A more dynamic option is to keep a grid item (zero-width adjuster element in demo below) just for setting the layout height:
placed in the first column and spanned across the first two rows
has height: 100vh set and pushed behind with z-index: -1 so that it doesn't affect the layout.
See demo below:
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
*, *::before, *::after {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
body {
display: grid;
margin: 0px;
grid-gap: 10px;
grid-template-columns: [side__nav] 250px [main] 1fr;
grid-template-rows: [header] 70px 1fr; /* removed footer from here */
grid-auto-rows: 70px; /* implicit grid height - footer height */
}

grid-column: main;
grid-row: 1;

}

grid-column: side__nav;

}

}

Excerpts on implicit and explicit grids from MDN:
The implicit and explicit grid (MDN)
If you place something outside of the defined grid—or due to the
amount of content, more grid tracks are needed—then the grid creates
rows and columns in the implicit grid. These tracks will be auto-sized
by default, resulting in their size being based on the content that is
inside them.
You can also define a set size for tracks created in the implicit grid
with the grid-auto-rows and grid-auto-columns properties.
You can read more about Explicit and Implicit Grids here: CSS Grid unwanted column added automatically

Grid item won't take full height of parent container

I am trying to create three items inside of a nested grid item. As you can see from the code, I've put the 'panels' div in-between the 'jumbo' and 'content' divs. I also nested three divs inside. In the CSS, I added a nested grid inside of .panels.
I want the 'panels' div to be split in three equally size parts on the vertical axis. Imagine three square blocks stack one after another. But the nested items don't fill the entire 'panels' div. If you run the code snippet, you can see that the panels are nested but don't take up the entire space. They take up a small percentage of their parent. I added background-color: white !important to one of the nested panels to show how small it is.
Another example can be seen here: https://codepen.io/rachelandrew/pen/NqQPBR/
But again, the nested E, F and G items don't expand to fill up the entire D section.
Is there a way to make the three panels fill in their parent?

You have align-items: center applied to the nested grid container (.panels).
With that rule, you override the default align-items: stretch, which would set your grid items to the full height of the parent. Instead, you have the items vertically centered.
So they can be full height, remove align-items: center from the .panels element:
.container > div:not(.panels) {
align-items: center;
}
.container {
display: grid;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
grid-gap: 3px;
grid-template-columns: repeat(10, 1fr);
grid-template-rows: 40px 130px 130px 130px 60px 330px 40px;
}

.panels {
grid-column: 3 / 9;
grid-row: 4 / 6;

display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr);
}
.panel1 {
grid-row: 1 / 2;
grid-row: 1;
background-color: white !important;
z-index: 2;

Keep in mind that there are three structural levels in a grid container:
the container
the item (child of the container)
the content (child of the item)
Grid properties only work between parent and child.
So when you apply grid centering properties on the container, they apply to the item, not the content. To center the content, you need to treat the item as parent and content as child.
There's a more in-depth explanation of these concepts and methods here: Centering in CSS Grid
Well, what you have done is, you created three columns inside the 'panels' div:
grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr);
But you gave the children only a position for the row (twice):
grid-row: 1 / 2;
grid-row: 1;
So if you change 'columns' to 'rows' in '.panels' and clean up the code for '.panel1' it should work like a cham!
Thank you all for your suggestions. I solved the issue by removing the nested 'panel' and simply creating three different panels to fill the same space.

CSS Grid - auto column height

The cart form is stretching vertically and the thumbs are positioning in the bottom left corner, when I'd like them to sit directly under the cart form like so:
.product-page--main-content {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(4, 1fr);
grid-template-rows: auto 1fr auto;
}
.product-page--main-content>* {
padding: 50px 100px;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
}
.product-page--cart-form-block {
grid-row: 2;
}
.product-page--thumbs {
grid-row: 3;
}
.product-page--images {
grid-column: span 2;
grid-row: span 3;
height: 400px;
}
.product-page--description {
grid-row: span 3;
}
<div class="product-page--main-content">
<div class="product-page--title-n-vendor">Title</div>
<div class="product-page--cart-form-block">Cart form</div>
<div class="product-page--thumbs">Thumbs</div>
<div class="product-page--images">Images</div>
<div class="product-page--description">Description</div>
</div>
Codepen: https://codepen.io/paulmason/pen/rYXyYW
The code you have is working perfectly, as written.
Your image grid item is set to height: 400px.
.product-page--images {
grid-column: span 2;
grid-row: span 3;
height: 400px;
}
Then you have 50px in top and bottom padding.
.product-page--main-content > * {
padding: 50px 100px;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
}
So the image grid item is 500px tall, in a row set to 1fr, in a grid with three rows. It all works perfectly, as specified.
Maybe what you want is four rows:
.product-page--main-content {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(4, 1fr);
/* grid-template-rows: auto 1fr auto; */ /* now defaults to grid-auto-rows: auto */
}
.product-page--main-content > * {
padding: 50px 100px;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
}
.product-page--cart-form-block {
grid-row: 2;
}
.product-page--thumbs {
grid-row: 3;
}
.product-page--images {
grid-column: span 2;
grid-row: span 4; /* changed from 3 */
height: 400px;
}
.product-page--description {
grid-row: span 4; /* changed from 3 */
}
<div class="product-page--main-content">
<div class="product-page--title-n-vendor">Title</div>
<div class="product-page--cart-form-block">Cart form</div>
<div class="product-page--thumbs">Thumbs</div>
<div class="product-page--images">Images</div>
<div class="product-page--description">Description</div>
</div>
I'm not sure this is what you're asking but this seems to fit: change
grid-template-rows: auto 1fr auto;
to
grid-template-rows: 3;
