I'm trying to make a menu bar that is vertically on the right side of the screen. The menubar should touch the horizontal main navigation bar on the top, but i can't set the top margin of the vertical bar to zero.
Here:

is a screenshot of how chrome inspect element shows the problem, this might make things a bit clearer.
Thanks in advance!
According to the element inspector your margin-top style got a syntax problem.
From the looks of it I'd say you used a double ':' (colon) character.
Try removing the double ':' character and try again.
If this still doesn't work, maybe another style is overriding your new one so you could try:
margin-top: 0 !important;
This will make sure this style will always have the highest priority.

I've got this weird problem which it seems that i simply can't solve (so far). The weird thing is that I've done almost exactly the same layout before for a navigation-bar, which was succesful.
In my navigation bar i have a button (not an actual <button> but a <div> which acts like one through jquery) to the farthest right of it, which has a background color and expands on click. The problem is that in IE and some resolutions of Chrome as well, there's a little white stripe shown beneath this div. Further this makes the child div that expands beneath it have a little gap between the button in the navigation bar and it self. This might not matter to some people (or most), but it's driving me mad - especially considering that i've done it before and used almost the very same css.
The <div> (to be more precise, it's the "quick-download" div) is set to a height of 70px and line-height of 70px, and the same goes for its siblings (and some of them less). However, the parent div shows up as 70.4px in height, which is bugging me out. I've tried numerous "trial-and-error" solutions/attempts, but with no success at all.
EDIT:
An image of the problem can be seen here (i changed background to red to make it more apparent): http://imgur.com/fya0duQ
EDIT 2:
The white space beneath the quick-download div appears only to be showing in IE and Safari on my compute right now.
EDIT 3:
Link to website is removed as the problem is corrected and therefore no longer is useful.
Assuming you mean the "Quick Download" button...
The height of the navigation bar is 75px and the height of the button is 70px, creating a 5px-tall gap.
The reason your navigation bar is 75px is because your image on the left is 60px tall with margin-top: 15px;. If you want the button to be flush with the bottom of the navigation bar, you can either increase the height of the button, reduce the margin-top of the <img id="aktie-skat-logo" ...>, or reduce the image's height.
The CSS in question:
#aktie-skat-logo {
margin-top: 15px;
display: block;
}
I've actually tracked the problem down my self - however, only after checking the problem across different browsers, after posting in here. The hint came in my old version of safari and IE, and didn't show in Chrome - which is consistent with "EDIT 2" in the original post. I found that some links we're 0.4px higher than others, but only 2/5 links.
The problem apparently stems from inserting a FontAwesome icon using the css ::after selector to links that has "children" (subpages). After removing this or making these icons position:absolute the problem is solved.
As to why insering these using ::after I have no idea. The ::after element had display:inline so shouldn't have broken too much in my opinion.
I'm sorry that I might have wasted your time checking my problem and answering, but even though I found the solution my self, it was a help posting in here (wouldn't have found it otherwise). I hope this might help some other people at some point.
I think that this is a really simple question but I can´t get a solution by myself.
I have a fixed navigation bar in Bootstrap 3 and when I click in one of the nav items it scrolls down to the section with the proper ID. However, it goes all the way until the very beginning of the text. I would like to give it a little bit of space (padding) on top of the text, so i tis easier to read.
This is an example of what I am saying.
However, I would like it to scroll down until the start of the section, including the padding space I have. Like this:
So basically if I could set the menu to navigate to around 20 or 30px on top of the section that would be perfect, because I don´t want to add more padding or margins since that would put too much white space in the site when you are manually scrolling.
I think the section with the proper ID has margin-top: x, change it on padding-top: x. It should work.
I use a jQuery plugin to handle this offsetting of position. Check out Animated Scroll on github.
I don't have all the code to hand, but I use this to kick it off:
$('.btn--scroll-down').click(function () {
$(this).parents('.jsScrollPoint').next('.jsScrollPoint').animatescroll();
});
If you read the docs, you'll notice an option for padding - that's your offset.
I am trying to figure out what keeps throwing off the positioning of my navigation menu on a site I'm working on. I have added an image just below my menu to accentuate it, which displays perfectly in Chrome.... however the div expands and locates itself below the logo in Firefox and IE. I've tried and tried and just can't seem to figure it out. If I eliminate the image it works perfectly, but with it... not so much.
Example: http://espritduvin.ca/ (View in different browsers to witness my issue)
Give your floating containers a width, e.g. 320px for the left container, 633 for the right one.
Try giving the image float:right, at the moment it's not given any css at all.
Firefox is rendering a clear on the header-right-section. Change the style for both left (logo) and right sections (nav bar) of the header to display: inline-block.
And I would suggest using Bootstrap for CSS in the future.
try to put proper width to header-right-section, i think it will work. Right now there is only float value.
If you are using bootstrap, you can put this right and left in 2 columns.
I don't know how to formulate my question perfectly, so I made a (quick) example so will illustrate my problem exactly : http://jsfiddle.net/kn5GT/1/
If the last item is near the bottom and you hover it, the submenu will be displayed like the other, but this will extend the height of the page, thus showing the vertical scrollbar of the browser.
I'd like to avoid that by making all dropdown that would extend the height of the page by showing not from the up, but from the bottom (the bottom of the submenu would be near the end).
Is this possible only in CSS or do I have to put some js in it?
this might not be the best solution, but you could fix this with a little help of the css-pseudoclass nth-last-of-type().
I have modified your fiddle (the borders are just there for better visual distinction.)
I just added the following rule:
ul>li:nth-last-of-type(-n+2)>div {
top:auto;
bottom: 50px;
}
Don't get confused by the strange selector, essentially (-n+2) makes the last 2 Submenus pop up from the bottom instead from the top.
I'm sure this is something simple but I am just not seeing it.
My wrapper DIV is floating left and the A tags within are displaying correctly but mousing over them you'll see that they are not the proper height/width.
I can't seem to get them in line, could someone take a quick look and tell me what I am missing?
Page is here, it's the social media icons
Any help is greatly appreciated, again I am sure it's something simple.
--Edit--
I am on a Mac, tested with firefox and safari so far, they don't hover correctly, only the very bottom portion of them actually function as a button.
In firebug, if I remove the wrappers float attribute, the links hover as they should. So I know it has something to do with the float.
On Chrome the icons are in a line but, as you said, only the bottom portion of them is active. The problem is that your #branding element extends down below the bottom of #main, partially obscuring #subWrapper, #sub, #left, and part of #right (though not enough to cause a problem there).
You could put overflow: hidden on #main, but then the graphic in #branding would get cut off at the bottom. (The graphics look very nice, BTW.) I think if you just add a positive z-index to either #sub or #subWrapper, such as z-index: 1, that should do the trick.
