In REACT, I have three divs that I would like to position side by side, separated by a small margin, and horizontally centered on the screen.
When the screen width becomes too small, I would like the right-most div to move below the first two divs, but still be horizontally centered.
When the screen becomes even smaller, I would like all three divs to be in a column in the center of the screen.
This is easy to achieve with images:
Html (the REACT flavor of html):
<div id='container'>
<img src={image}/>
<img src={image}/>
<img src={image}/>
<div/>
CSS:
#container {
text-align: center;
}
How can this be done with objects that are not imgs?
Welcome to stack overflow, I think what you're looking for is css flexbox https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/CSS/CSS_layout/Flexbox.
#container {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
.childClass { // you would need to add a className to the child divs
width: // add the width of your divs here, this will force them to wrap
flex-grow: 0;
flex-shrink: 0;
}
I think that should do it, but I highly encourage you to read https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/ - it's one of the best resources on using flexbox for layouts
//use flexbox for easy structuring html elements
.container {
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
justify-content: center;
}
.first {
background-color: red;
height: 100px;
width: 100px;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
.second {

I have 2 divs that are floated next to each other. In one of the divs I have an image that scales (both it´s height and width) when I decrease the size of the browser window. In the other div I have some other content, but this is only being scaled in width when I decrease the size of the browser window. I want both of the divs to have the same height at all times, even when they are being scaled. Is this possible?

I know part of the problem is that I´ve actually set a height of 500px to the cipherSide div. This is because so far I haven´t been able to make the height of this div closer to the height of the pinupSide div in any other way.
I tried to copy the declarations from the pinupSide and pinUpGirl to the cipherSide and verticalAlign divs, but to no avail. This only pushed the content in the cipherSide div all the way to the top.

height: 500px;
float: left;
}
.verticalAlign {
position: absolute;
top: 25%;
height: 50%;
width: 100%;
background: yellow;
}
I want both of the divs to have the same height at all times, no matter how I´m scaling the width of the browser window.
Considering you code I assume you want the two elements to have the same height but also the same width at all time. I also assume you want the image to be as big as possible inside the left element without being distorted. Is that right?
If you can use CSS Grid, you can achieve that layout with a grid made up of two columns of each 1fr, which represent one fraction of the available space. See the following code:
The <img> element has its width set to 100% so that it is as big as possible inside its parent element, and its parent element has the font-size set to 0 to remove an unwanted space below the image.
body {
margin: 0;
background-color: #3ff4fe;
}
.container {
max-width: 992px;
margin: auto;
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr;
}
.image {
background-color: black;
font-size: 0;
}
.image img {
width: 100%;
}
.text {
background-color: red;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="image">
<img src="http://jjberg.com/cipher/images/pin_up_edited_x2.png" alt="Pin up girl">
</div>
<div class="text">
Some text
</div>
</div>
Does this help?
I second the use of grid like Auguste said. You could also use flex-box instead of floats and absolute positioning. Here is one possible implementation.
You'll probably have to play with object-fit on the image. Or just set the background of the pinup side to be the image and change the positioning through background properties. Either way it should work out.
You can also set hard heights and widths if you want to and just you the flex-box for positioning.
If you run the code snippet be sure to view it full screen because it uses view-port units for the height of the container.

I'm trying to achieve a certain fluid layout where the content of each DIVs are centered vertically and horizontally. But, my middle row (A, B, C) keeps on having vertical and/or horizontal alignment issues.
The goal is to have it work like this:
Note: If there's a way I can have the option to set the Mobile layout's "C" area fluid as well (without having to change the HTML, just the CSS, so that I can test which option works best), that'd be a bonus!
Here's a snippet of the HTML:
<div class="page">
<div class="col col-top">top</div>
<div class="col col-mid">
<div class="col col-left">
<div class="centerBox"><div class='debugBox'></div></div>
</div>
<div class="col col-center">
<div class="centerBox"><div class='debugBox'></div></div>
</div>
<div class="col col-right">
<div class="centerBox"><div class='debugBox'></div></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col col-bottom">bottom</div>
</div>
I'm not sure if the "wrapper" DIVs with the "centerBox" class is really necessary (they're set as display: table-cell while each col class are set to display: table to behave like tables, but this causes issues to place those areas with position: absolute and % values for their left / right / top / bottom properties.
For instance, if the "C" area is set to display: table, this happens:
And if I change the "C" area to display: block;, then it fills that full center area, but...
... the horizontal and vertical alignment breaks inside of it.
Would using "Ghost" DIV elements (as discussed in this css-tricks article, "Centering in the Unknown" by Chris Coyier ) be any better to get the correct alignment?
Ok, this solution works without a framework, pure CSS using flexbox. As long as the layout is horizontal, C has a fixed width. When it is mobile, C takes up the whole width and has a variable height.
header,
footer {
padding: 10px;
background-color: lightblue;
}
main {
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
}
main > div {
padding: 10px;
background-color: tomato;
flex-grow: 1;
min-height: 40px;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
main > div:nth-child(2) {
background-color: olive;
}
.fixed {
width: 400px;
}
#media (max-width: 768px) {
main {
flex-direction: column;
}
.fixed {
width: auto;
}
}
<header>Top</header>
<main>
<div>A</div>
<div class="fixed">C</div>
<div>B</div>
</main>
<footer>Bottom</footer>
Here is a pen (drag the border to see the mobile layout):
Codepen
Here are the styles for the code you have provided. The one thing to keep in mind is your middle column, being a fixed width, is what helps with the calc() function. 50% of HALF the width of the middle container. This will not work in IE 8 or less, so you'll have to write a JS solution if you care about those browsers.
.page {
width: 100%;
position: relative;
}
.col-top {
background: #0f0;
width: 100%;
height: 50px;
}
.page .col-mid {
width: 100%;
display: table;
}
.page .col-mid .col {
width: calc(50% - 250px);;
height: 100px;
background: #f00;
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
text-align: center;
}
.page .col-mid .col-center {
width: 500px;
background: #00f;
}
.debugBox {
display: inline-block;
width: 20px;
height: 20px;
background: #000;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.col-bottom {
clear: both;
height: 50px;
background: #0f0;
}
and a working example here:
https://jsfiddle.net/g45pwedd/
And you don't need some of the container elements, as you stated.
UPDATE
Sorry, forgot to add for responsive. I wasn't sure if you still needed vertical align for responsive or not. This solution removes vertical align, as I doubt it's needed on a mobile display anyways:
#media (max-width: 768px) {
.page .col-mid .col {
display: block;
width: 100%;
}
}

In bootstrap 4
to center the childs horizontally, use bootstrap-4 class
justify-content-center
to center the childs vertically, use bootstrap-4 class
align-items-center
but remember don't forget to use d-flex class with these
it's a bootstrap-4 utility class, like so
<div class="d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center" style="height:100px;">
<span class="bg-primary">MIDDLE</span>
</div>
Note: make sure to add bootstrap-4 utilities if this code does not work
Say I have the following CSS and HTML code:
#header {
height: 150px;
}
<div id="header">
<h1>Header title</h1>
Header content (one or multiple lines)
</div>
The header section is fixed height, but the header content may change.
I would like the content of the header to be vertically aligned to the bottom of the header section, so the last line of text "sticks" to the bottom of the header section.
So if there is only one line of text, it would be like:
-----------------------------
| Header title
|
|
|
| header content (resulting in one line)
-----------------------------
And if there were three lines:
-----------------------------
| Header title
|
| header content (which is so
| much stuff that it perfectly
| spans over three lines)
-----------------------------
How can this be done in CSS?
Relative+absolute positioning is your best bet:
#header {
position: relative;
min-height: 150px;
}
#header-content {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
}
#header, #header * {
background: rgba(40, 40, 100, 0.25);
}
<div id="header">
<h1>Title</h1>
<div id="header-content">And in the last place, where this might not be the case, they would be of long standing, would have taken deep root, and would not easily be extirpated. The scheme of revising the constitution, in order to correct recent breaches of it, as well as for other purposes, has been actually tried in one of the States.</div>
</div>
But you may run into issues with that. When I tried it I had problems with dropdown menus appearing below the content. It's just not pretty.
Honestly, for vertical centering issues and, well, any vertical alignment issues with the items aren't fixed height, it's easier just to use tables.
Example: Can you do this HTML layout without using tables?
If you're not worried about legacy browsers use a flexbox.
The parent element needs its display type set to flex
div.parent {
display: flex;
height: 100%;
}
Then you set the child element's align-self to flex-end.
span.child {
display: inline-block;
align-self: flex-end;
}
Here's the resource I used to learn:
http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/
Use CSS positioning:
/* Creates a new stacking context on the header */
#header {
position: relative;
}
/* Positions header-content at the bottom of header's context */
#header-content {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
}
As cletus noted, you need identify the header-content to make this work.
<span id="header-content">some header content</span>
<div style="height:100%; position:relative;">
<div style="height:10%; position:absolute; bottom:0px;">bottom</div>
</div>
I use these properties and it works!
#header {
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: bottom;
}
After struggling with this same issue for some time, I finally figured out a solution that meets all of my requirements:
Does not require that I know the container's height.
Unlike relative+absolute solutions, the content doesn't float in its own layer (i.e., it embeds normally in the container div).
Works across browsers (IE8+).
Simple to implement.
The solution just takes one <div>, which I call the "aligner":
CSS
.bottom_aligner {
display: inline-block;
height: 100%;
vertical-align: bottom;
width: 0px;
}
html
<div class="bottom_aligner"></div>
... Your content here ...
This trick works by creating a tall, skinny div, which pushes the text baseline to the bottom of the container.
Here is a complete example that achieves what the OP was asking for. I've made the "bottom_aligner" thick and red for demonstration purposes only.
CSS:
.outer-container {
border: 2px solid black;
height: 175px;
width: 300px;
}
.top-section {
background: lightgreen;
height: 50%;
}
.bottom-section {
background: lightblue;
height: 50%;
margin: 8px;
}
.bottom-aligner {
display: inline-block;
height: 100%;
vertical-align: bottom;
width: 3px;
background: red;
}
.bottom-content {
display: inline-block;
}
.top-content {
padding: 8px;
}
HTML:
<body>
<div class="outer-container">
<div class="top-section">
This text
<br> is on top.
</div>
<div class="bottom-section">
<div class="bottom-aligner"></div>
<div class="bottom-content">
I like it here
<br> at the bottom.
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
The modern way to do it would be using flexbox. See the example below. You don't even need to wrap Some text... into any HTML tag, since text directly contained in a flex container is wrapped in an anonymous flex item.
header {
border: 1px solid blue;
height: 150px;
display: flex; /* defines flexbox */
flex-direction: column; /* top to bottom */
justify-content: space-between; /* first item at start, last at end */
}
h1 {
margin: 0;
}
<header>
<h1>Header title</h1>
Some text aligns to the bottom
</header>
If there is only some text and you want to align vertically to the bottom of the container.
section {
border: 1px solid blue;
height: 150px;
display: flex; /* defines flexbox */
align-items: flex-end; /* bottom of the box */
}
<section>Some text aligns to the bottom</section>
display: flex;
align-items: flex-end;
Inline or inline-block elements can be aligned to the bottom of block level elements if the line-height of the parent/block element is greater than that of the inline element.*
markup:
<h1 class="alignBtm"><span>I'm at the bottom</span></h1>
css:
h1.alignBtm {
line-height: 3em;
}
h1.alignBtm span {
line-height: 1.2em;
vertical-align: bottom;
}
*make sure you're in standards mode
I have encountered the problem several times and there are good solutions but also not so good ones. So you can achieve this in different ways with flexbox, with the grid system or display table. My preferred variant is a mix of flex and 'margin-bottom: auto'. Here is my personal collection of text-bottom possibilities:
1. Flex / margin-top: auto;
.parent {
min-height: 200px;
background: green;
display: flex;
}
.child {
margin-top: auto;
background: red;
padding:5px;
color:white;
}
<div class="parent">
<div class="child">Bottom text</div>
</div>
2. Flex / align-self: flex-end
.parent {
display: flex;
min-height: 200px;
background: green;
}
.child {
align-self: flex-end;
background: red;
padding: 5px;
color: white;
}
<div class="parent">
<div class="child">Bottom text</div>
</div>
3. Flex / align-items: flex-end;
.parent {
min-height: 200px;
background: green;
display: flex;
align-items: flex-end;
}
.child {
padding: 5px;
background: red;
color: white;
}
<div class="parent">
<div class="child">Bottom text</div>
</div>
4. Grid / align-self: end;
.parent {
min-height: 200px;
background: green;
display: grid;
}
.child {
align-self: end;
background: red;
padding:5px;
color:white;
}
<div class="parent">
<div class="child">Bottom text</div>
</div>
5. Table / vertical-align: bottom;
Personal I don't like this approach with table.
.parent {
min-height: 200px;
background: green;
display: table;
width:100%;
}
.child {
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: bottom;
background: red;
padding:5px;
color:white;
}
<div class="parent">
<div class="child">Bottom text</div>
</div>
With spacer
6. Flex; / flex: 1;
.parent {
min-height: 200px;
background: green;
display: flex;
flex-flow: column;
}
.spacer {
flex: 1;
}
.child {
padding: 5px;
background: red;
color: white;
}
<div class="parent">
<div class="spacer"></div>
<div class="child">Bottom text</div>
</div>
7. Flex / flex-grow: 1;
.parent {
min-height: 200px;
background: green;
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
}
.spacer {
flex-grow: 1;
}
.child {
padding: 5px;
background: red;
color: white;
}
<div class="parent">
<div class="spacer"></div>
<div class="child">Bottom text</div>
</div>
8. Inline-block / PseudoClass::before
.parent {
min-height: 200px;
background: green;
}
.child::before {
display:inline-block;
content:'';
height: 100%;
vertical-align:bottom;
}
.child {
height:200px;
padding: 5px;
background: red;
color: white;
}
<div class="parent">
<div class="child">Bottom text</div>
</div>
❤️ My personal preferred versions are: 1., 2. and 3.
You can simply achieved flex
header {
border: 1px solid blue;
height: 150px;
display: flex; /* defines flexbox */
flex-direction: column; /* top to bottom */
justify-content: space-between; /* first item at start, last at end */
}
h1 {
margin: 0;
}
<header>
<h1>Header title</h1>
Some text aligns to the bottom
</header>
You can use following approach:
.header-parent {
height: 150px;
display: grid;
}
.header-content {
align-self: end;
}
<div class="header-parent">
<h1>Header title</h1>
<div class="header-content">
Header content
</div>
</div>
Here is another solution using flexbox but without using flex-end for bottom alignment. The idea is to set margin-bottom on h1 to auto to push the remaining content to the bottom:
#header {
height: 350px;
display:flex;
flex-direction:column;
border:1px solid;
}
#header h1 {
margin-bottom:auto;
}
<div id="header">
<h1>Header title</h1>
Header content (one or multiple lines) Header content (one or multiple lines)Header content (one or multiple lines) Header content (one or multiple lines)
</div>
We can also do the same with margin-top:auto on the text but in this case we need to wrap it inside a div or span:
#header {
height: 350px;
display:flex;
flex-direction:column;
border:1px solid;
}
#header span {
margin-top:auto;
}
<div id="header">
<h1>Header title</h1>
<span>Header content (one or multiple lines)</span>
</div>
If you have multiple, dynamic height items, use the CSS display values of table and table-cell:
HTML
<html>
<body>
<div class="valign bottom">
<div>
<div>my bottom aligned div 1</div>
<div>my bottom aligned div 2</div>
<div>my bottom aligned div 3</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
CSS
html,
body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.valign {
display: table;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.valign > div {
display: table-cell;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.valign.bottom > div {
vertical-align: bottom;
}
I've created a JSBin demo here: http://jsbin.com/INOnAkuF/2/edit
The demo also has an example how to vertically center align using the same technique.
The best possible solution to move a div to the bottom is as follows.
Basically what you need to do is to set display flex and flex-direction as a column to the parent and add a 'margin-top: auto' to its child which needs to be floated to the bottom of the container
Note: I have used bootstrap and its classes.
.box-wrapper {
height: 400px;
border: 1px solid #000;
margin: 20px;
display: flex; // added for representation purpose only. Bootstrap default class is already added
flex-direction: column;
}
.link-02 {
margin-top: auto;
}
<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/twitter-bootstrap/4.6.0/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<div class="box-wrapper d-flex flex-column col-4">
<div>incidunt blanditiis debitis</div>
<div class="news-box">
<img class="d-block" alt="non ipsam nihil" src="https://via.placeholder.com/150">
<p>Labore consectetur doloribus qui ab et qui aut facere quos.</p>
</div>
<a href="https://oscar.com" target="_blank" class="link-02">
This is moved to bottom with minimal effort
</a>
</div>
All these answers and none worked for me... I'm no flexbox expert, but this was reasonably easy to figure out, it is simple and easy to understand and use. To separate something from the rest of the content, insert an empty div and let it grow to fill the space.
https://jsfiddle.net/8sfeLmgd/1/
.myContainer {
display: flex;
height: 250px;
flex-flow: column;
}
.filler {
flex: 1 1;
}
<div class="myContainer">
<div>Top</div>
<div class="filler"></div>
<div>Bottom</div>
</div>
This reacts as expected when the bottom content is not fixed sized also when the container is not fixed sized.
You don't need absolute+relative for this. It is very much possible using relative position for both container and data. This is how you do it.
Assume height of your data is going to be x. Your container is relative and footer is also relative. All you have to do is add to your data
bottom: -webkit-calc(-100% + x);
Your data will always be at the bottom of your container. Works even if you have container with dynamic height.
HTML will be like this
<div class="container">
<div class="data"></div>
</div>
CSS will be like this
.container{
height:400px;
width:600px;
border:1px solid red;
margin-top:50px;
margin-left:50px;
display:block;
}
.data{
width:100%;
height:40px;
position:relative;
float:left;
border:1px solid blue;
bottom: -webkit-calc(-100% + 40px);
bottom:calc(-100% + 40px);
}

Hope this helps.
Here's the flexy way to do it. Of course, it's not supported by IE8, as the user needed 7 years ago. Depending on what you need to support, some of these can be done away with.
Still, it would be nice if there was a way to do this without an outer container, just have the text align itself within it's own self.
#header {
-webkit-box-align: end;
-webkit-align-items: flex-end;
-ms-flex-align: end;
align-items: flex-end;
display: -webkit-box;
display: -webkit-flex;
display: -ms-flexbox;
display: flex;
height: 150px;
}
a very simple, one-line solution, is to add line-heigth to the div, having in mind that all the div's text will go bottom.
CSS:
#layer{width:198px;
height:48px;
line-height:72px;
border:1px #000 solid}
#layer a{text-decoration:none;}
HTML:
<div id="layer">
text at div's bottom.
</div>
keep in mind that this is a practical and fast solution when you just want text inside div to go down, if you need to combine images and stuff, you will have to code a bit more complex and responsive CSS
An addition to the other flex-box solutions mentioned:
You can use flex-grow: 1 on the first div. This way, your second div will be aligned to the bottom while the first will cover all remaining space.
On the parent div, you must use display: flex and flex-direction: column.
/* parent-wrapper div */
.container {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
}
/* first-upper div */
.main {
flex-grow: 1;
}

if you could set the height of the wrapping div of the content (#header-content as shown in other's reply), instead of the entire #header, maybe you can also try this approach:
HTML
<div id="header">
<h1>some title</h1>
<div id="header-content">
<span>
first line of header text<br>
second line of header text<br>
third, last line of header text
</span>
</div>
</div>
CSS
#header-content{
height:100px;
}
#header-content::before{
display:inline-block;
content:'';
height:100%;
vertical-align:bottom;
}
#header-content span{
display:inline-block;
}

I found this solution bassed on a default bootstrap start template
/* HTML */
<div class="content_wrapper">
<div class="content_floating">
<h2>HIS This is the header<br>
In Two Rows</h2>
<p>This is a description at the bottom too</p>
</div>
</div>
/* css */
.content_wrapper{
display: table;
width: 100%;
height: 100%; /* For at least Firefox */
min-height: 100%;
}
.content_floating{
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: bottom;
padding-bottom:80px;
}
#header {
height: 150px;
display:flex;
flex-direction:column;
}
.top{
flex: 1;
}
<div id="header">
<h1 class="top">Header title</h1>
Header content (one or multiple lines)
</div>
#header {
height: 250px;
display:flex;
flex-direction:column;
background-color:yellow;
}
.top{
flex: 1;
}
<div id="header">
<h1 class="top">Header title</h1>
Header content (one or multiple lines)
</div>
I have devised a way which is a lot simpler than what's been mentioned.
Set the height of the header div. Then inside that, style your H1 tag as follows:
float: left;
padding: 90px 10px 11px
I'm working on a site for a client, and the design requires the text to be at the bottom of a certain div. I've achieved the result using these two lines, and it works fine. Also, if the text does expand, the padding will still remain the same.
try with:
div.myclass { margin-top: 100%; }
try changing the % to fix it. Example: 120% or 90% ...etc.
The site I just did for a client requested that the footer text was a high box, with the text at the bottom I achieved this with simple padding, should work for all browsers.
<div id="footer">
some text here
</div>
#footer {
padding: 0 30px;
padding-top: 60px;
padding-bottom: 8px;
}
*{
margin:0;
}
div{
width:300px;
background:cornflowerblue;
color:#fff;
height:150px;
display:flex;
justify-content:space-between;
flex-direction:column;
}
<div>
<h4>Heading</h4>
<p>This is a paragraph</p>
<!-- <p> Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it</p> -->
</div>
Just simply use display:flex and flex-direction:column to make child sync in vertical order then apply justify-content:space-between to justify height of parent div with its children content. so that you can achieve your goal. Try this snippet to resolve issue.
I really appreciate your interest.
Seems to be working:
#content {
/* or just insert a number with "px" if you're fighting CSS without lesscss.org :) */
vertical-align: -#header_height + #content_height;
/* only need it if your content is <div>,
* if it is inline (e.g., <a>) will work without it */
display: inline-block;
}
Using less makes solving CSS puzzles much more like coding than like... I just love CSS. It's a real pleasure when you can change the whole layout (without breaking it :) just by changing one parameter.
A perfect cross-browser example is probably this one here:

The idea is both to display the div at the bottom and also making it stick there. Often the simple approach will make the sticky div scroll up with the main content.
Following is a fully working minimal example. Note that there's no div embedding trickery required. The many BRs are just to force a scrollbar to appear:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<style>
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#floater {
background: yellow;
height: 200px;
width: 100%;
position: fixed;
bottom: 0px;
z-index: 5;
border-top: 2px solid gold;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>
<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>
<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>
<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>
<div id="floater"></div>
</body>
</html>
If you are wondering your code might not be working on IE, remember to add the DOCTYPE tag at the top. It's crucial for this to work on IE. Also, this should be the first tag and nothing should appear above it.
