MS Edge reserves to much space for image - html

I'm getting a strange behavior in Microsoft Edge for my footer.
I have extracted the problem into a fiddle so it's easier to help.
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="inner-container">
<div class="slide-footer">
<div class="slide-icon active">
<img src="..." />
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
I have a footer which is positioned via flex-box to always stick at the bottom.
inside of that footer there is another flex-box which is basically used for centering of the footer-elements.
The elements inside the footer have an image inside which takes 80% of the footers height and are therefore resized.
In chrome / firefox the footer-element takes only the space which the resized image needs but in edge the element takes as much width as the original image would need and therefore breaks the layout.
Note: this does not happen all the time so here is an screenshot of what I mean:
How can I fix this?

Section not expanding to 100% width

I am working with vue and trying to make my element responsive so starting with Mobile first approach. I am using normalize.css but i don't think it has anything to do with the issue. The div is not 100% width, it cuts half way through. I am using dev tool mobile tool to emulate the screen to view.
I have attached and jsfiddle for the code.
<div>
<header class="container">
<section>
<img src="https://placeimg.com/400/100/arc" alt="logo">
</section>
<section>
Logo text
</section>
<section>
<h3>Call Us</h3>
<div class="contact__info">
<sub>Mon - Fri</sub>
12345
</div>
</section>
</header>
</div>
The fixed width: 1326px; on your header makes that element stretch wider than the viewport (if the latter is smaller than that), so it overflows out of its parent, but does not stretch the parent itself. And because that parent doesn’t stretch, the 100% with of the div inside it are still only 100% of the viewport width.
What is a header with a fixed width of > 1300px doing in this in the first place, if you want to approach this “mobile first” …? Remove it or make it dynamic as well, otherwise this makes little sense as a test case for the rest of what you are doing to begin with.

Img overflowing a fixed-width div in IE and FF

I have a relatively small problem here, it doesnt appear in Chrome though.
I have 2 divs at 50% width of their container, one is floated to the left, the other floated to the right. One contains some text, and the other contains nothing but an image which has a max-width: 100% applied to it by default. But still, the image is overflowing to the left outside of the divs boundaries. How to fix?
http://jsfiddle.net/Pv5Cb/ - I am not sure if this will give you an idea about what is happening but still.
P.S. I am using some snippets from animate.css, but I doubt that this is the problem.
HTML:
<div class="content-project-left">
<h1>heading one</h1>
<p>paragraph</p>
</div>
<div class="content-project-right">
<div>
<a>
<img src="img/img.jpg" alt=""/>
</a>
</div>
</div>
Fixed it myself.
So it turned out that besides the two 50% sides that are floated to the left and right respectfully, I gave the image within the floated right div a float: right...
float: *; removes an element from its natural document flow.
Removed it and everything is back to normal now.

Aligning responsive divs

I'm writing a responsive design for a website and I have 4 separate divs, which should be arranged 2 TOP x 2 BOTTOM. At some resolutions it seems to work fine, but at others there is a hole between the upper left div and the bottom left one.
This is how it should look like:
http://postimg.org/image/76q5y5w5v/
This is how it looks when improperly rendered:
http://postimg.org/image/6a4f8x4j7/
If you want to see all of the CSS applied, just visit http://bbogdanov.us/ (bottom of the page) and try to play with the browser's size to monitor the behavior of the div's at the different sizes.
The reason this is happening is because the div elements are being floated. When you lower the screen size, the block is becoming longer (taller) and the float is breaking. You can clear every other line by adding this snippet:
.uslugihome2:nth-child(odd) {
clear: left;
}
Caution, though, you need to use a polyfill for this to work on older browsers because some pseudo-classes like nth-child are not supported. I recommend Selectivizr.
Currently you have the following markup for each box:
<div class="uslugihome2">
<div class="usluginame">
<div class="uslugiimage">
<div class="uslugidesc">
</div>
With reason why you see the gap is due to the width and margin that are set on uslugihome2.
So what I would so is, create another div which wraps the child divs like so:
<div class="uslugihome2">
<div class="uslugi_wrapper">
<div class="usluginame">
<div class="uslugiimage">
<div class="uslugidesc">
</div>
</div>
Then go to line 316 of style.css and remove margin: 2.5%;, then change the width to 50%.
Once done, add the following to your css file:
.uslugi_wrapper {
padding: 0 15px;
}
Not sure which browser you want to support but this will also ensure support for the likes of IE8
Hope this helps
That's because the height of those divs change as the width of the window changes. Try wrapping a div around every two separate divs. Let's call that a row.
<div style="display: block;">
<div class="uslugihome2">...</div>
<div class="uslugihome2">...</div>
</div>
<div style="display: block;">
<div class="uslugihome2">...</div>
<div class="uslugihome2">...</div>
</div>

Difficulties with a 3-column(100%) layout with header and footer in CSS

I'm working on a home page that is going to use a "custom" border around the whole website.
This is what I want to achieve with my div's.
[LEFT-TOP-BORDER ][MIDLLE-TOP-BORDER ][RIGHT-TOP-BORDER ]
[LEFT-MIDDLE-BORDER][Content ][RIGHT-MIDDLE-BORDER]
[LEFT-BOTTOM-BORDER][MIDLLE-BOTTOM-BORDER][RIGHT-BOTTOM-BORDER]
All the border corners (left/right top & bottom border) have a fixed width and height.
The middle-top/bottom-border has a fixed height but should expand to
the full width of the site.
The middle left and right border have a fixed width but should fill
up the whole height of the screen even when the content gets bigger.
The borders should stay clear of the content div, so if the window is
to small it should not be on to the content div.
The content div is going to have a fixed width and height.
I want the footer to be sticky without again overlapping the content
div when the window is to small.
Hope it's clear what I want to do!
I almost got it to work, but i got an problem with the left/right-middle-border. See for your self here
As you can see when the window is to small the borders overlap the content div.
But I think the way I have done it is not good?
How should I do it?
Thanks in advanced!

Looking at your code what you need to do is put your divs inside each other, not next to each other. So your middle section will be:
<div class="middle-left">
<div class="middle-right">
<div class="middle-content">
Content
</div>
</div>
</div>
Then give your middle-left left padding of the correct width and position the background to the left, the middle-right some right padding of the correct width and position the background to the right, and then as your content gets taller, the margin divs will automatically expand.
Do this for all of the three layers, like so:
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="top-left">
<div class="top-right">
<div class="top-content">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="middle-left">
<div class="middle-right">
<div class="middle-content">
Content
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="bottom-left">
<div class="bottom-right">
<div class="bottom-content">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The body height doesn't need the 100% in your CSS now. And the wrapper can be centered and doesn't need a height either. I would try actually getting rid of all of your CSS and starting that again with this new HTML structure. Just add the padding and some background colours and get that right.

Right align element while a horisontal scrollbar is present

I have a page where I want an element to align right at the same time I have elements which may be wide and cause a horisontal scrollbar. For instance:
<body>
<div style="float:right">Stay right</div>
<div style="white-space:nowrap; clear:both; font-size:2em">
Wide child element which determines the width of the page.
</div>
</body>
This works fine if the wide element fits within the browser window. But if the browser window is too small so that a horisontal scrollbar appears the "stay right" element will align with the window and not the page:
If I move the scrollbar the "stay right" element moves and doesn't really align to anything.
If a add a table around the whole page it does what I wan't:
<body>
<table width="100%"><tr><td>
<div style="float:right">Stay right</div>
<div style="white-space:nowrap; clear:both; font-size:2em">
Wide child element which determines the width of the page.
</div>
</td></tr></table>
</body>
The "stay right" element will align with the right side of the wide child element regardless of browser window size.
Edit: The table based solution above will align right to largest of the width of the wide child element or the window width. Effectively this gives the page a "minimum width" which is determined by the contents of the page (ie. the wide child element). This is what I want - which isn't clear from the original text, sorry.
I am wondering if there is a better way than wrapping the entire page in a table.
That is a very interesting problem. It actually happens because the computed width on div matches the window size (and body size) instead of the width of the text. The floating text looks to it's container for a width/height when rendering (and because that computed value is actually size of the window, the float stops at the edge of the window).
This does not really occur often because most sites use something like grid960/foundation/etc and a min/max width are provided (you probably figured out that setting a width will fix your problem).
I don't know of a really good solution for dynamically sized text (with only css)... The only thing I can think of without using a table would be to use a clearfix. It is really used/created for element with floating children (in order to give them a correct width/height.. floating elements do not normally effect the containers dimensions) but it also will work in this case.
<body>
<div class="clearfix">
<div style="float:right">Stay right</div>
<div style="white-space:nowrap; clear:both; font-size:2em">
Wide child element which determines the width of the page.
</div>
</div>
</body>
EDIT: I lied, I came up with a second (better) way but it does require a more modern browser. It is to use a wrapper with a display: inline-block OR display: table. It really is just a sub-set of the clearfix but will work if you can get away with being IE8+ based.
<body>
<div style="display:inline-block">
<div style="float:right">Stay right</div>
<div style="white-space:nowrap; clear:both; font-size:2em">
Wide child element which determines the width of the page.
</div>
</div>
</body>
NEVER wrap an entire page in a table. It messes up your HTML since about the year 2000.
I think you want a fixed position for your div, it lines up the element with the window instead of the page:
.myDivThatFloatsRight {
position: fixed;
top: 10px;
right: 10px;
}
