I'm a beginner and I'm trying to fit my header on the top but it's not fitting. Here is screenshot:
Here is my source code:
<header style="height: 50px;background-color: rgb(26, 26, 26);">
<div class="container"></div>
</header>
Can you please let me know, What's wrong here? Help would be appreciated.
You need to add the following style in your css. There is default styles of browser which needs to overridden, in order to achieve the requirement.
html, body {
margin : 0;
padding : 0;
}
All Browsers have default inbuilt CSS implemented, due to which the page appear misalligned. You need to add reset.css http://cssreset.com/
or else add css code to disable browser default behaviour for example:
/* CSS reset */
body,div,dl,dt,dd,ul,ol,li,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,pre,form,fieldset,input,textarea,p,blockquote,th,td {
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
html,body {
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
table {
border-collapse:collapse;
border-spacing:0;
}

I am simply adding a header navbar to an html page.But the problem is its not aligned exactly to the top.There is a small gap between the browser and the navbar.I found a solution as setting margin:0;,but the issue I have is it will only work if I code it as by selecting the whole div... like
*{ margin:0;}
why is that so ?
I found this solution in another stackoverflow question but I cant comment and ask because I have low repuation.He is stating its because of SASS.But how is my code becoming sass because I was using normal simple procedure for CSS coding.
Linked soultion question.(Please check the comments in correct selected question)
Header not touching top of screen
My code :
<html>
<head>
<style>
* {
margin:0;
}
.new {
width:100%;
background-color: blue;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="new">New Website</div>
</body>
</html>
Some browser have set user agent stylesheet at "body" tag
For Chrome: body have margin: 8; on body tag, so you will get a small gap between navbar.
You can set
body{
margin: 0;
}
Will solve your problem.

Don't put the margin: 0; on the div. Put it on the body or html tag. Like so:
body{
margin: 0;
}
Don't forget that you can style the html and body tags too! Making them height: 100%; might be of use in the future.
* is the universal selector. It targets all elements. When you state:
* {margin: 0}
You're removing the margin from every element on the page. That works in this case, but it will have side effects that you probably won't want on a page with more content.
Your browser is adding some padding to the body element. As amoyer pointed out, set the body margin to zero and you should be fine.
I am trying to apply specific css styles to two separate Wordpress pages. I have a header.php and header-int.php for my index page and interior pages.
I need the css on my home page to have
html, body {
overflow: hidden;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
and the interior page css to be
html, body {
overflow: auto;
margin:0;
padding:0;
I can only seem to apply it to the body tag, either in the css sheet or hard coded, but can't seem to apply it to the html as well. Not sure the proper way to target the html general tag
}
Each wordpress page will have unique page-class in body tag.
You can target from that.
For Example:
Homepage:
<body class="home page page-id-5 page-template-default single-author">
.....
</body>
You can target the home page body like
body.page-id-5 {
overflow: hidden;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
Contents of my webpage(be it header,menu etc.,) are not fitting into browser window.Below is the HTML & CSS code i have used
HTML
<div id="header">
</div>
CSS
#header {
height:150px;
width:100%;
position: relative;
background-image: url("top_frame.png");
And here is the output I get:
Add the following:
body {
margin: 0;
}
in the CSS.
Here is the fiddle.
I replaced background-image with background : red; for testing purpose as I didn't have the image
Please use Normalize.css before your custom css.
MyPage.html
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">

<div id="header">
<div id="title">

</html>
index.css
body{
background-color: #31859C;
margin-left: 0px;
margin-top: 0px;
overflow-x: hidden;
}
#header{
margin-top: 0px;
height: 120px;
background: #9838CE;
}
#title{
margin-top: 0px;
}
result:
Where is the margin that is at the top (above the purple) coming from? And what do I need to do to get rid of it? I could use negative values for margin-top to do it but is that the "real" solution here?
All headings have a default margin that can be canceled out with:
h1 {
margin: 0;
}
Demo:
I would recommend using a css reset code like this one if you want to avoid these quirks and style them yourself.
One of two things might be causing this:
Padding in the body? Add padding: 0; to body.
The top margin on the H1. To combat this add overflow-hidden; to #header
Adding overflow: hidden to the #header will cause the header DIV to contain it's contents (including the margin on the H1).
Set the margin of h1 tag to 0:
h1 { margin: 0; }
See jsFiddle demo.
Try setting the margins of html to 0 as well.
html {
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
Two things:
You might want to add
body{
padding:0;
}
but that's not the real issue, its the H1 tag that is spoiling the layout
add this to your css
h1{
margin-top:0;
}
here is a little fiddle
use reset css for default browser setting will be reset.

I want to add a footer to an HTML page that will be repeated across all pages WHEN PRINTING. I have managed to achieve this through this code:
#media print {
p.note {
bottom: 0; position: fixed;
}
}
But now I have a problem with this paragraph going on top of the rest of the copy
According this Mirosoft article, this should work for me:
#page :first {
margin-bottom: 4in;
}
But it doesn't, it doesn't change anything... any ideas?
Here's the solution that worked, CSS is this:
#media print {
p.note {
display:block;
bottom:0;
position:fixed;
font-size:11px;
}
}
And everything needs to be contained in a separate div with this CSS
#wrapper {
position:relative;
bottom:1in;
margin-top:1in;
width:974px;
margin:0 auto;
}
This worked perfectly!
How about adding some z-index ? It seems that the footer overrides the last paragraph
Also try to use
#media print {
p.note {
bottom: 0; position: fixed;
margin-top:10px;
}
}
Make sure that the container for the main content makes room for the footer. For instance, if your markup looks something like this:
<div id="content"><p>Lorem Ipsum Latin et cetera</p></div>
<p class="note">Footer</p>
You'd want some css like this:
#content {margin-bottom:4in}
To create room for your footer text you can use a table with tfoot. Use tfoot>tr to create a spacer. Place your footer text inside a div container that has position:fixed; to bottom:0;.
CSS
table {width:100%;}
#media print {
tfoot>tr {height:20mm;}
tfoot div {position:fixed;bottom:0;}
}
