Why is there extra space on right and bottom of the website? - html

Question

I'm trying to remove the white space at the bottom and right side of the website. On the right side it seems that it's caused by the black navbar but I don't have a clue how to fix it.

Answer 1

I think it's your top level nesting. You need to wrap the jumbotron into a container div as well. You can make it fluid if you need full width:
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
...
</div>
Generally speaking, if you look at basic templates provided by boostrap's documentation, they place all body content into a container div.
This is due to the fact that each row has a -15px margin.

Answer 2

It's caused by your Bootstrap:
Every .row has a negative margin left and right, while every .col-* has a padding left and right by the same amount.
We have to get rid of that. But we need it back inside .container classes.
Look here: https://codepen.io/anon/pen/QpOyyo
I added this CSS:
/* Don't add padding to all elements that have classes like "col-md-*" */
[class^="col-md-"],
[class*=" col-md-"] {
padding-right: 0;
padding-left: 0;
}
/* Add back the Bootstrap padding, if inside .container */
.container [class^="col-md-"],
.container [class*=" col-md-"] {
padding-right: 15px;
padding-left: 15px;
}
/* Don't add negative margin for all rows */
.row {
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: 0;
}
/* Add back the Bootstrap margin, if inside .container */
.container .row {
margin-left: -15px;
margin-right: -15px;
}
Update: Add this as well to address the footer issue.
.container-fluid {
padding-right:0px;
padding-left:0px;
}
footer p{
margin:0;
}

Answer 3

its caused by the padding-right on the div .col-md-12. Set it to 0 and its fine.
The white space at the bottom is caused by the #copy in the footer, add margin-bottom: 0 to it.
