How can i create a Tile System like this? - html

Question

So i am creating a Responsiv Website in which i want to have a Tile System like in the Image above. Unfortunatly i just cant get it done right.Here is my current ATTEMPT. Using Flexbox
.flex-container {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
list-style: none;
width: 100%;
height: 30px;
display: -webkit-box;
display: -moz-inline-box;
display: -ms-inline-flexbox;
display: -webkit-inline-flex;
display: inline-flex;
-moz-justify-content: space-around;
-ms-justify-content: space-around;
justify-content: space-around;
-webkit-flex-flow: row wrap;
-moz-flex-flow: row wrap;
flex-flow: row wrap;
}
.flex-item {
background: #eaeaea;
padding: 5px;
width: 130px;
height: 90px;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-left: 0px;
color: black;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 12px;
text-align: center;
cursor: pointer;
}
.flex-item:hover {
background: #d9d9d9;
}
.flex-item-stop {
background: crimson;
padding: 5px;
width: 130px;
height: 90px;
margin-top: 0px;
color: black;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 12px;
text-align: center;
cursor: pointer;
}
.flex-item-stop:hover {
background-color: #bb1133;
}
#Menue {
position: fixed;
left: 0;
height: 25%;
width: 650px;
float: right;
padding: 25px 0;
margin: -25px 0;
display: inline-flex;
display: -moz-inline-flex;
display: -webkit-inline-flex;
justify-content: space-around;
-moz-justify-content: space-around;
-webkit-justify-content: space-around;
flex-flow: column wrap;
-moz-flex-flow: column wrap;
-webkit-flex-flow: column wrap;
}
<div id="Menue">
<div class="flex-container">
<div class="flex-item">Vanilla</div>
<div class="flex-item">Citrus</div>
<div class="flex-item">Bananasplit</div>
<div class="flex-item">Gum</div>
</div>
<div class="flex-container" style="margin-top:10%;">
<div class="flex-item">Sweden</div>
<div class="flex-item">Austria</div>
<div class="flex-item">Russia</div>
<div class="flex-item">Brazil</div>
</div>
<div class="flex-container" style="margin-top:10%;">
<div class="flex-item">Positiv</div>
<div class="flex-item">Negativ</div>
<div class="flex-item">Neutral</div>
<div class="flex-item-stop"> </div>
</div>
</div>
I just cant create the spacing between the tiles and my result seems different in different browsers, especially in the Internet Explorer 11. What i also would like to have is that there should always be 4 Tiles in a singel "line" is this possible?
Now comes my Question: What exactly do i have to change in my Code to accomplish such a Tile System?
Are the alternatives to Flexbox?
Any Examples suggestions are appreciated.

Answer 1

You can try something like this :
.row{
display:table;
content:'';
clear:both;
width:100%;
}
.item{
box-sizing:border-box;
width:25%;
border:1px solid white;
height:100px;
background-color:yellow;
float:left;
text-align:center;
}
<div class="row">
<div class="item">Vanilla</div>
<div class="item">Gum</div>
<div class="item">Citrus</div>
<div class="item">BananaSplit</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="item"></div>
<div class="item"></div>
<div class="item"></div>
<div class="item"></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="item"></div>
<div class="item"></div>
<div class="item"></div>
<div class="item"></div>
</div>

Answer 2

Give this a crack:
HTML:
<div class="container">
<div class="inner-block"></div>
<div class="inner-block"></div>
<div class="inner-block"></div>
<div class="inner-block"></div>
<div class="inner-block"></div>
<!-- e.t.c... !-->
</div>
CSS:
.container{
width: 100%;
}
.container > .inner-block{
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
width: calc(25% - 13px);
height: 0;
padding-bottom: calc(25% - 13px);
margin: 5px;
background: blue;
}
