Unnecessary line breaks in a div text - html

I need to hide a newsletter form when the user press the sign up button ("Cadastrar" in portuguese) and this is already happening as you may check on my website. However, the success message is rendered with unnecessary line breaks. Why?
I need to fill the entire height of the footer (without fixing the height in the child div, if possible), but the text should be vertically centered in the red box.
You'll probably find easy to check the problem by going to my website, filling the email address field and clicking the button bellow, but here is the HTML rendered there.
<div id="mc4wp-form-1" class="form mc4wp-form mc4wp-form-3571 mc4wp-ajax mc4wp-form-success">
<form method="post" lpformnum="1" _lpchecked="1">
<input type="email" name="EMAIL" class="text" placeholder="Seu email" required="">
<input type="submit" class="bt" value="Cadastrar"><span class="mc4wp-ajax-loader" style="display: none; vertical-align: middle; height: 16px; width: 16px; border: 0px; margin-left: 5px; background: url(/img/ajax-loader.gif) 50% 50% no-repeat;"></span>
<div style="position: absolute; left: -5000px;">
<input type="text" name="_mc4wp_required_but_not_really" value="" tabindex="-1">
</div>
</form>
<div class="mc4wp-response">
<div class="mc4wp-alert mc4wp-success">Obrigado, seu cadastro foi efetuado com sucesso! Por favor verifique seu e-mail.</div>
</div>
</div>
Here is an attempt to reproduce on jsfiddle.

Possible solution add float: left; property to mc4wp-error selector
.mc4wp-error {
background-color: #FEE7ED;
color: #F41952;
border-color: #F41952;
float: left; <----Add this
}
Reason why text is breaking
Newsletter, input and button pushing and breaking the text
Remove float:left from
footer form {
width: 100% !important;
float: left !important; <---Remove this
}
.mc4wp-alert {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
min-height: 200px;
}
Mobile view and CSS changes max-width:480px
#media (max-width: 480px) {
footer form {
float: left !important; <---Remove this
}
.mc4wp-alert {
position: absolute;
top: inherit;
min-height: 200px;
bottom: -90px;
}
}

If you change:
.mc4wp-alert {
...
...
position: relative;
}
to position: fixed;, you will find that the space is actually occupied by the email text-box and the button. The solution is to use position: absolute;. I tested it in Chrome and IE11.

Horizontaly aligning placeholder in input field

What would be correct approach to aligning placeholder to the top of the field, while input text appearing normally in the middle?
Any way to do that with CSS on input/::placeholder only, or should i rather construct a wrapper with span that would disappear when active and input field below it?
Here's a fiddle of what i've got now: https://jsfiddle.net/ejsLfvdn/1/
And that's what it should look like up to customers will:
The input masks are not the case here, i'm only struggling with the placeholder being aligned to the top, while input should appear normally in the middle. The placeholder MUST disappear after filling input.
I don't think that you will be able to do this by directly targeting the placeholder pseudo class (::placeholder).
Only a small subset of CSS properties can be applied to this element and position is not one of them:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/::placeholder
I think you will need to take the approach of a wrapper with span and input and position appropriately.
You could use something like this with the only issue being the input must have the required attribute.
* {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.input {
display: flex;
flex-flow: column-reverse nowrap;
border: 1px solid gray;
width: 220px;
}
.input input:valid + label {
opacity: 0;
}
.input input {
width: 100%;
padding: 10px;
border: none;
}
<div class="input">
<input required id="username" name="username" type="text" />
<label for="username">Username</label>
</div>
I hope I achieved what you need.
btw, I used jquery to hide the placeholder while typing and display it again if the field is empty.
$('.form-control').keyup(function(){
var val = $(this).val();
if(val == ""){
$('.placeholder').show();
}else{
$('.placeholder').hide();
}
});
.input-cont{
position: relative;
}
.form-control{
border: 1px solid #DDD;
border-radius: 5px;
height: 40px;
padding-left: 8px;
}
.placeholder{
position: absolute;
top: 5px;
left: 8px;
color: #3dc185;
font-size: 12px;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<html>
<body>
<form>
<div class="input-cont">
<span class="placeholder">ImiÄ™</span>
<input class="form-control" type="text" name="name">
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
You can use translateY(-100%) on your placeholder to move the text upwards and then give your textbox some padding at the top to reveal the text:
.placeholder-offset {
font-size: 20px;
padding-top: 25px;
}
.placeholder-offset::placeholder {
color: red;
transform: translateY(-100%);
}
<input type="text" placeholder="Username" class="placeholder-offset" />

Use just part of the input field with CSS

I have an input field, and inside it on the right side there is a string that displays information to the user.
<div class="my_div_class">
<input class="my_input_class" type="text" placeholder="Search">
<span class="my_span_class">6000 available</span>
</div>
Using position relative and absolute, I places the span inside the input field.
However, if the user types a long query, the text will be under the span text.
Is there a way to force the input field to do the horizontal scroll when the user reaches a point before the right margin, ideally without using javascript?
You can add some padding-right to the input box.
.my_div_class {
position: relative;
width: 200px;
}
.my_input_class {
width: 100%;
padding-right: 100px;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.my_span_class {
position: absolute;
right: 0;
top: 0;
}
<div class="my_div_class">
<input class="my_input_class" type="text" placeholder="Search">
<span class="my_span_class">6000 available</span>
</div>
.my_input_class {
padding-right: 1em; // Replace `1em` with the desired amount of padding
}

div background does not show properly in chrome

I'm using float: left; and float: right; to put two div-containers in one row, the left one holds an input bar, the right one holds a small background image (search button).
It's showing fine in Opera & Firefox, MSIE 9.0+ but when I view it in chrome the right container's background image is slightly off position (shifted downwards by a few pixels).
I set the background color to red to highlight the issue:
screenshot
index.php outtake:
<div class="header_inner_right">
<form id="search_bar" method="post" action="" onsubmit="return checkSearchQuery();">
<div class="left">
<input id="search_field" name="q" type="text" value="Search riddim, artist, tune, label and producer"
onfocus="searchFieldValue_onFocus();" onblur="searchFieldValue_onBlur();">
</div>
<div class="right">
<input id="search_button" src="images/search_button.gif" type="submit" value="">
</div>
</form>
</div>
index_chrome.css (used if php script detects chrome browser):
#charset "ISO-8859-1";
#search_bar {
width: 450px;
height: 37px;
background-color: red
}
#search_bar #search_field {
border: 0px;
width: 365px;
height: 37px;
padding-left: 20px;
padding-right: 20px;
background-image: url(../images/search_field.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
font-weight: bold;
color: #c0c0c0;
background-color: #ffffff
}
#search_bar #search_button {
cursor: pointer;
border: 0px;
outline: none;
height: 37px;
width: 45px;
background-image: url(../images/search_button.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat
}
How to fix it and adjust the y-position of the magnifying-glass background image so its perfectly aligned with the left div's background image and fully concealing the red background of the right div container?
EDIT: http://jsfiddle.net/YcraM/
Sorry, forgot about JSFiddle!
This might not be the answer you want to hear, but it's pretty much impossible to make most input elements look identical cross browsers. I urge you to fashion the submit button from a div element. Example:
<div class="left">
<input id="search_field" name="q" type="text" value="Search riddim, artist, tune, label and producer"
onfocus="searchFieldValue_onFocus();" onblur="searchFieldValue_onBlur();">
</div>
<div class="right">
<div id="search_button"></div>
</div>
Style the div with css to your liking - remember to use the :hover and :active pseudo classes. Then, using for example jQuery, make it functional like this:
$('#search_button').on('click', function(e) {
$(e.currentTarget).closest('form').submit();
});
I've tested it in Chrome 21 and FF 14, it seems setting line-height:0px; fixes the issue.
div.right {
float: right;
line-height:0px;
}
div.left {
float: left;
line-height:0px;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/YcraM/3/
I haven't tested in other browsers, so forgive me if this isn't the best solution.
you can add float:right (or left) to #search_bar #search_button, that fix the issue as well

Search field isn't on same line as text

I'm trying to insert a search field in my header (black zone) but doesn't work. I want the search field inline with "SimpleCMS"...
See this screenshot to understand:
I want it on the same line as the header text...
There's my HTML code:
<div id="header"><h1><?php echo($header_text); ?></h1>
<div style="float: right;">
<form action="search.php" method="get">
<input type="text" name="q" id="q" value="Search..." />
<input type="submit" value="Search" />
</form>
</div>
</div>
And my CSS:
#header
{
padding: 5px 10px;
background: #000;
color: #FFF;
text-align: left;
}
The problem is that you use a <h1> element. This will span over the whole width (see here) of the top so that every other element will be placed below it. Use a <span> instead and style it according to your needs. Using position-absolute as alpaca lips nao suggests might work as well.
Update: Use position: absolute;
#header
{
padding: 5px 10px;
background: #000;
color: #FFF;
text-align: left;
position: relative;
}
#header div form {
position: absolute;
top: 75px;
right: 25px;
}

How to merge HTML input box and a button? (sample images attached)

Please answer the following questions:
How to merge search box and search button as shown in below example1 and example2? The box and button are joined together.
How to put 'magnifier' icon on the left side of the search box?
How to put a default text into the box like 'Search for items' and fade it when user clicks on the box.
Example1
Example2
Example3 (I don't want a separate button as shown below)
Please help! Thanks!!
Easiest way is to make the entire text field wrapper, from the icon on the left to the button on the right, one div, one image.
Then put a textfield inside that wrapper with a margin-left of like 30px;
Then put a div inside the wrapper positioned to the right and add a click listener to it.
HTML:
<div id="search_wrapper">
<input type="text" id="search_field" name="search" value="Search items..." />
<div id="search_button"></div>
</div>
CSS:
#search_wrapper{
background-image:url('/path/to/your/sprite.gif');
width:400px;
height:40px;
position:relative;
}
#search_field {
margin-left:40px;
background-transparent;
height:40px;
width:250px;
}
#search_button {
position:absolute;
top:0;
right:0;
width:80px;
height:40px;
}
JQuery:
$(function(){
// Click to submit search form
$('#search_button').click(function(){
//submit form here
});
// Fade out default text
$('#search_field').focus(function(){
if($(this).val() == 'Search items...')
{
$(this).animate({
opacity:0
},200,function(){
$(this).val('').css('opacity',1);
});
}
});
});
For your first question, there are many ways to accomplish the joining of the button to the search box.
The easiest is to simply float both elements to the left:
HTML:
<div class="wrapper">
<input placeholder="Search items..."/>
<button>Search</button>
</div>
CSS:
input,
button {
float: left;
}
Fiddle
This method has some limitations, however, such as if you want the search box to have a percentage-based width.
In those cases, we can overlay the button onto the search box using absolute positioning.
.wrapper {
position: relative;
width: 75%;
}
input {
float: left;
box-sizing: border-box;
padding-right: 80px;
width: 100%;
}
button {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 0;
width: 80px;
}
Fiddle
The limitation here is that the button has to be a specific width.
Probably the best solution is to use the new flexbox model. But you may have some browser support issues.
.wrapper {
display: flex;
width: 75%;
}
input {
flex-grow: 2;
}
Fiddle
For your second question (adding the magnifier icon), I would just add it as a background image on the search box.
input {
padding-left: 30px;
background: url(magnifier.png) 5px 50% no-repeat;
}
You could also play around with icon fonts and ::before pseudo-content, but you'll likely have to deal with browser inconsistencies.
For your third question (adding placeholder text), just use the placeholder attribute. If you need to support older browsers, you'll need to use a JavaScript polyfill for it.
It's all in the CSS... You want something like this:
http://www.red-team-design.com/how-to-create-a-cool-and-usable-css3-search-box
Also, for the search icon:
http://zenverse.net/create-a-fancy-search-box-using-css/
Src: Quick Google.
You don't merge them, rather you give the illusion that you have. This is just CSS. Kill the search box borders, throw it all into a span with a white background and then put the fancy little dot barrier between the two things. Then toss in some border radius and you are in business.
The above tut might look too lengthy. The basic idea is this:
Arrange the input box just like you do. The input text box should be followed by the button. add the following css to do that.
position:relative;
top:-{height of your text box}px;
or you can use absolute positioning.
<div id="search_wrapper">
<input type="text" id="search_field" name="search" placeholder="Search items..." />
<div id="search_button">search</div>
</div>
#search_wrapper{
background-color:white;
position:relative;
border: 1px solid black;
width:400px;
}
#search_field {
background-transparent;
border-style: none;
width: 350px;
}
#search_button {
position:absolute;
display: inline;
border: 1px solid black;
text-align: center;
top:0;
right:0;
width:50px;
}

This is pretty much easy if You use bootstrap with custom css
My output is diffrent but the logic works as it is..
I have used Bootstrap 5 here you can also achieve this by using Pure CSS,
<div class="container my-5">
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<div class="col-10 p-0 inputField text-center">
<input type="text" id="cityName"placeholder="Enter your City name..">
<input type="submit" value="search" id="submitBtn">
</div>
</div>
</div>
For Styling
#import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Ubuntu&display=swap');
* {
font-family: 'Ubuntu', sans-serif;
}
.inputField {
position: relative;
width: 80%;
}
#cityName {
width: 100%;
background: #212529;
padding: 15px 20px;
color: white;
border-radius: 25px;
outline: none;
border: none;
}
#submitBtn {
position: absolute;
right: 6px;
top: 5px;
padding: 10px 20px;
background: rgb(0, 162, 255);
color: white;
border-radius: 40px;
border: none;
}
