I have a weird bug on my website which I've never seen before. The link to the live demo is website
On Mobile view, body and html is overflown and I can scroll the whole body to left and right. After inspecting, I know that the culprit is Navigationbar-toolbar. Somehow it has the extra position right -6px which I don't understand. Anybody knows how to fix this issue? I've tried setting overflow: hidden to , but none is working.
In the screenshot below, notice that there is a scrollbar at the bottom of the webpage.
I will provide further SCSS code if required.
As #Schwierig said, the real culprit is the slider, for desktop view, I want the slider's items to be fitted to the left and right edges so I added this class to the slider:
.Slider--fitEdges {
// Fix edge
.slick-slide {
margin: 0 18px;
}
.slick-list {
margin: 0 -18px;
}
}
Now I just have to wrap it inside a media query for it to work in desktop only.

I'm trying to get rid of the horizontal scroll bar (A) but when I changed my footer my images got messed up (B) and I'm not sure what is happening or what to do.
A: Unwanted horizontal scroll: https://mabonzo.github.io/prj-rev-bwfs-tea-cozy/teacozy/
B: Commented out footer and the images go wonky: https://mabonzo.github.io/prj-rev-bwfs-tea-cozy-test/teacozy/
Initially I was trying to change my footer rule-set from having left: 20px; to margin-left: 20px; or padding-left: 20px; when I ran into this problem! I speculate that it is related to the actual resolutions of the images, but I'm not sure.
Resizing the browser fixes centers the images.
I asked on a Slack group to no avail, I just tested it on different browsers and it seems like this is an issue only on Firefox. On Chrome and Edge they load no problem... So I guess my updated question is how to fix this for Firefox users.
EDIT: going to update the website, so the problem won't be in the (A) link. But the TEST site (B) will still be up and broken. Thanks!
Your footer element has an auto width (which is the full width of the screen, because it's a block level element) but then you say left: 20px (combined with position:relative) so now it's the full width of the screen but it starts 20px from the left, meaning it will always be 20px off the right side of the screen.
padding-left:20px on the footer will accomplish the same goal and not cause the horizontal scrollbar.
Your images seem to be defaulting to the left on Firefox because you have position: absolute on .mission-child img. Setting this to position: relative seems to correctly centralise the images for me.
Your footer occupies the full width on the page, in addition to having left: 20px on it. This offsets from the left, leading it to have a total width of 100% + 20px. To offset the text contained within, but not the footer itself, you're looking for padding-left: 20px.
Hope this helps! :)
Firefox might just render position: absolute; images within display: flex; position: relative; justify-content: center; align-items: center; divs weird!
I fixed the problem by adding the align-self: flex-start; and top: 0; declarations to the .mission-child img and .locations-child img rule-sets.
Thank you for the help!
At cjshayward.com/index_new.html, there is a wrapper div around the body's content, about 1000 pixels wide, and it works as intended for the top 100 or so pixels in Chrome and Firefox. Next down the page is a jQuery UI set of tabs, containing a fixed-width accordion and something close to jQuery.load()ed plain old, simple HTML.
However, on the "Browse the Library" tab (but not "About the Author"), which is presently open and which contains the fixed-width accordion, below 100 or 150px down, the area under the tabs appears to have the same width as the window; it has the correct left margin, and horizontally scrolls an apparently equal distance to the right. Furthermore, the body background tile does not display; the whole width is white, as was specified for the wrapper div's interior.
How can I get the "Browse the Library" tab to display as intended (like the "About the Author" tab does)?
Thanks,
You're absolutely positioning way too much and that's ruining the flow of things. I'll go through a list of edits you can do to make this work.
/*
#accordion and #details will be floated, so we'll need to
clear #tabs. Add this property.
*/
#tabs {
overflow: hidden;
}
/*
Remove the absolute positioning from #accordion, along
with the top and left properties and do this instead.
*/
#accordion {
float: left;
width: 400px; /* This already exists */
margin: 0 10px 0 0;
}
/*
Remove the absolute positioning from #details, along
with the top and left properties and do this instead.
*/
#details {
float: left;
width: 580px;
}
This will get you a lot closer. You should also try to avoid using height on these elements. Let the content dictate the height.
Here is what i ended up with making those edits: http://i.imgur.com/niizuoR.png
Okay lets make a step by step solution (watch for the edits).
Background
Your background is set in the body. So the body needs to be extended to fill the whole page.
I would recommend this way but there are others.
body,html{
height:100%;
}
Normally the body would fit its contents but with position:absolute this mechanism doesnt work anymore.
Also remove background: #fff css (normalize.css) from the html.
html {
background: #fff;
color: #000;
font-size: 100%;
-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;
-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;
}
Also your background scrolls with your content. Set background-atachment: fixed to change this.
Wrapper
Same counts dor your wrapper which holds the white background.
Set its height to 100% too.
div#main {
height: 100%;
}
The reason why your content is bigger than your wrapper is that
<div id="details" style="width: 713px; height: 0px;">
this div holding the content has a fixed size set. Removing that size make it fit the wrapper.
The width seems to be set per javascript in the load event, so I cant help you with that. Provide your .js code and may i can help you with that too.
As stated in the comments, your layout issues are based in your use of absolute positioning rather than flow layout:
I went through your site and quickly switch everything so it was positioned statically (width floats, not absolute values) and this cleared up the issue. There were some other issues as well. You probably need to look over how you are setting up your HTML from the top level on.
I would start out again and concentrate on using floats for your layout, rather than absolute positioning.
For a basic example on doing so, here is a super simply page: http://cdpn.io/kmCFy
I'm trying to make a sticky footer for a site I'm working on and I can't get rid of an extra white space at the bottom. I see it in Chrome and Safari (I haven't tested other browsers yet). When the page first loads, you don't see it, but if you scroll down there is about 2-3px of just white space. How to I make it so that my footer sticks to the bottom?
This is the site:
http://ec2-23-23-22-128.compute-1.amazonaws.com/
And this is what I'm trying to accomplish:
How do I get rid of the extra white space at the bottom of the page?
NOTE: I know there are a couple of other rendering issues, but the only one I'm worried about right now is the extra pixles on the bottom of the page. I've been playing with negative margins, 0 margins, paddings, etc all day and I'm not getting anywhere with it :/
It disappears when you give the image in the div with class "img-wrapper" display: block. This is common with images, I see you are doing this for a css reset:
* {
margin: 0px;
}
I would suggest against this. A proper css reset or normalize would go a long way to easing these kind of headaches.
Edit: I know you said it's a work in progress, but just as a heads up if you haven't noticed the window also scrolls when you don't need it to. This is the issue:
#b-container {
background-color: #F1EFE6;
min-height: 100%;
height: auto !important;
height: 100%;
margin: 0 auto -170px; // originally this was 0 auto -150px
}
I'm coding a Wordpress theme and I'm having an issue displaying 5 dynamic post thumbnails next to each other (left floated) with a 20px right margin within a centered div.
here's a link to a page: http://www.lesfourchettes.net/info (the issue occurs when you click on "Les Prèfs" in the top navigation: the top menu and the below content moves 10px to the left.)
Here's the issue:
the site has a 960px width and is centered. (#wrapper)
the 5 dynamically generated post thumbnails are 176px wide with a 20px right margin each. (#.prefs-thumbs)
i choose these dimensions for the thumbnails thinking i would have 5 thumbnails and 4 margins between them which would add up to 960px.
but the reality is that the last thumbnail of each row also has a 20px margin and therefore the whole thing adds up to 980px (20px wider than the site).
the only solution i found for showing 5 thumbnails per row was assigning a 980px width to the thumbnail div (#prefs).
however this seems to provoke an issue with the centering of the rest of the content which is no longer centered with the 960px site width but width the 980px thumbnail div.
so whenever i click "lesprefs" to display the thumbnails (using a little jquery function), the whole content moves to 10px on the left.
The whole thing is a bit complicated to explain. But i feel like there is surely an easy CSS solution to my problem. Perhaps something to do with the overflow property, display property or someting like that... I'm just not good enough with CSS yet to identify the solution and my issue being so specific, I haven't found the answer on the web.
i feel like the problem lies within those lines of CSS:
#wrapper {
width: 960px;
height: auto;
margin: 0 auto 0 auto;
}
#prefs {
width: 980px;
height: 390px;
margin: 69px 0 0 0;
}
.prefs-thumbs {
position: relative;
float: left;
margin: 0 20px 20px 0;
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!
You're noticing the 10px shift because the page height is increasing, and a horizontal scroll bar is being added by the browser.
My preferred solution to this problem is to always show the horizontal scroll bar, with the following CSS (works in all modern browsers):
html { overflow-y: scroll; }
I see the centered alignment shifting toward the left because of the vertical scroll that appear on the right side of the page.
First thing to solve is the actual fitting of the elements in your block.
You need to remove the right-margin from the last element in each line..
So either set a class to the last item which overrides the margin with marign-right:0 or (for modern browsers) do it purely in CSS with
.prefs-thumbs:nth-child(5n+1){
margin-right:0;
}
reference: http://www.w3.org/TR/selectors/#nth-child-pseudo
You also need to remove the border from the images as that gets added and instead of 176 pixels each of your images occupies 180 pixels (it has 2 pixel border around it)
So, correct your math first..
The issue with the moving of the content, is that the scroll bars appear once the content exceeds the page height (as expected). One solution is to keep the vertical scrollbar alwats visible, as #wsanville suggests in his answer.
I'm making a website with a large image at the top that extends past the far right of the page. The problem is that the browser keeps adding a horizontal scroll bar to allow the user to scroll to the end of this image but I don;t want it to do that.
Is there any way I can tell the browser to treat the image a bit like a background image or to simply stop scrolling after 940px?

There's an example of the page so you can get a better idea of what I mean.
The way to do it here is to:
Add a new div (or other relevant HTML5 tag if you prefer): <div id="wrapper">, containing everything inside body.
Move these rules from body to #wrapper:
margin: 0 auto;
position: relative;
width: 960px;
Add this new CSS:
body {
min-width: 960px;
overflow: hidden;
}
Add this to get horizontal scrolling back when the window is less than 960px wide:
html {
overflow: auto;
}
Here's a live demo so you can quickly see if my answer will have the desired effect.
Tested in Firefox, Chrome, IE8.
Put the image into a div like this:
<div class="image"></div>
And in CSS you can write:
.image {background: url(http://www.electric-drumkit.com/_images/_feat/404.png) bottom right no-repeat; height: 314px;}
In this way, your div will render the image as a background, into a div, and i think there will be no scrolling.
