I have next situation, look at the picture, please.
How can I change this padding value? I need reduce it.
The RWT Theming Reference lists a Table-Cell CSS rule that has a padding property, that
Defines the padding (i.e. the inner distance between border and content) for a table cell.
Without having tried, you should be able to specify a custom padding with
Table-Cell {
padding: 2px;
}
See also the RWT Theming chapter of the developer's guide for more.

I have a WordPress website with a custom post type that I need to display in a Bootstrap grid.
Here's what I mean :
I need to create a gutter in the center, but obviously if I add a padding-left, it moves every element. I only need to add padding to the item on the right. Since the content is dynamic, I can't just add a class and type
.right-elements { padding-left: 10px; }
Is there a CSS property for even elements or something ?
( since the issue is not really unique I don't feel like I should add the code, but tell me if you need it )
Thanks !
If you're only interested in modifying even elements, you can use the :nth-child() rule:
.my-class:nth-child(even) { padding-left: 10px; }
I wonder how you would remove the space around text, I know this can be achieved by line-height. But space is always kept either above or below the text. Is there some dynamic way to do this? Either plain CSS or SASS works for me.
Thanks in advance :)
Your developer console tells you which property is responsible for the space.
In your case its the margin that is defined on the element. A simple
h1{
margin:0;
}
will fix this.
In case you wonder, where this margin comes from - some of the elements, like headings come with predefined margins & paddings that are applied by the browsers automatically. In this case, the source in the styles section of your webdev console states "user agent stylesheet".
write CSS
h1 {
margin: 0;
}
It will remove the default margin for h1 getting applied from browser.

I'm essentially trying to replicate the webpage output for this assignment. Pictures used in webpage are here. That's basically my ultimate goal in all of this, getting this webpage as close to the Desired Output as possible. Not just similar, but as close to identical as possible.
This needs to be done in a way that doesn't just superficially reflect the intended output, but is done in the "right" way. For example, I could very well just adjust padding and margin sizes until it looks the way it needs to be, but that wouldn't solve the overarching problem and makes for badly styled code.
This has to be predominantly done with CSS. Only organizational HTML tags can be used and no packages or code can be imported.
Problem:
Each review is supposed to be separated by 20pt of vertical distance. This isn't working out for whatever reason.
It might have something to do with the fact that I've got some of my reviews looking like this when I need them to look like this.
That might have to do with the fact that padding is applying only to the text when it needs to apply to the review as a whole.
You can see in the first image that the blue bar, which represents padding, is only under the text and not under the image and the text.
I'm wondering if this has something to do with img elements being inline elements and not block elements? Any advice you have on this would be greatly apprecaited.
Code:
CSS
HTML
The padding does not work with your images because you have
float: left
applied to them. If you take that property out, the padding will take the img into account.
On a side note: maybe you should reconsider your html structure. Logically the review text and the reviewer belong together, so they should be enclosed by some parent div element. Just look at the real rotten tomatoes website and how they structure their reviews and let that "inspire" you ;-)
But basically it should be something like this:
<div class="review">
<div class="review_quote"></div>
<div class="review_source"></div>
</div>
Well structured HTML really helps with styling. HTML and CSS go hand in hand, so if your HTML is messy your CSS will be messy and "hacky" too. So first make sure your HTML makes sense (grouping, nesting, etc.) first.
add this class in your css
.reviewer-text::after {
clear: both;
content: "";
display: block;
}
Well.. your padding in css is refering only to class 'reviewer-info'. Elements with class 'reviewer-text' got their padding set to 8px;
If you want to have result for that block like on the picture apply bottom padding for 'reviewer-text'. Change:
.reviewer-text {
padding: 8px;
}
to:
.reviewer-text {
padding: 8px 8px 20px 8px;
}

I am trying to code a page, and for some reason i have a random css spacing issue for my list that i created. On the bottom right i have a random space between the list and its div.
I am styling it fine i think but my code is here at jsFiddle
and it works fine there for some reason. Any ideas?
If needed i can supply the entire page link.
I want that whole entire css list to span accross the entire div but it has a huge gap between the left wall of the div and its list.
The list on the page you link to needs to have its padding (and potentially its margin ... some browsers have different default styles) cleared. Here are some rules you could use to fix this:
#navlist {
list-style-type: none; /* Removes default list style */
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
I highly recommend getting the Firebug extension for Firefox. It makes debugging layout issues like this very easy. It also helps you see whether the style rules you are writing are being overridden by a more specific rule elsewhere in your style sheet.
As an aside, you shouldn't be using the center element. That element has been deprecated, and should be handled via your style sheet like so: text-align: center;
I am using the following HTML:
<p>← Back</p>
To create the following:
← Back
Problem is, the left arrow is not vertically aligned in the middle. It appears to be at the lower 3rd.
Question: how do I get the left arrow to be aligned vertically in the middle (of the letter "B") using CSS?
UPDATE:
Is it possible for me to vertically adjust/align this:
Without modifying my HTML, and
Without using an image?
The arrow is a simple character, so it's aligned like the others (it is in the "middle", the creator of the font wants it to be where it is... maybe that's the middle of lower-case character). Maybe it looks different using another font, maybe not. If you have a fixed font and that one looks messy, you could try to use the :first-letter selector (or wrap the arrow in a span or something) to move it up 1 or 2 px (position:relative: top:-2px;).
Another solution would be to use an image for this, like most websites do (and there are many free icon sets out there — my favourite is famfamfam)
You can wrap your arrow in SPAN tag and then play with line-height and vertical-align CSS properties.
Generally you should not do this, you should let it as the font was conceived by its author.
But it you want to change it you can do it like this:
<p><a href="http://www.example.com/">
<span style="position:relative;top:-3px;">←</span>
Back
</a></p>
Note: Use what you need instead of -3px, I used that just to illustrate how the position can be changed.
I think you have to use a image for the left arrow than &larr.
It IS possible to have the &larr in a separate span, have some specific padding to bring the arrow to the right position, or use a specific font that has the arrow at the center, but this will have side effects.
I suggest you use an image.
There are two possible answers to this.
The way you're writing it, this is not a graphical element (arrow) followed by a label ("Back"), but a line of text (inside a paragraph) containing a single character followed by a letter string. So alignment is a purely typographical problem and determined by the font you're choosing. Choose a different font and see if it's more typographically pleasing.
What you want is really not a line of text but two independently placeable graphical elements. Put each inside its own span, give it display: inline-block and position: relative and play with vertical paddings, margins and line-heights until you're satisfied.
You have some options:
1. Put the arrow between span tags before the word Back, add an id to this span object and then assign the style in the css file playing with: padding-top or bottom and also vertical-align or position relative.
2. The second option is using the image as background and then you have to create the style for this link:
li a#link,#link_conten{
background-image: url(../../../img/arrow.gif);
background-position: left top;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
In addition, it is not common (from the semantic point of view) to put just the link (tag a) inside a paragraph (tag p). Then you have to deal with the default css rules for tag a and p but of course depends of your design
You could use CSS generated content. This will mean editing your HTML - to remove the arrow. Essentially you're creating a pseudo-element that sits in front of the link, and you can style it however you like, e.g.
a.back:before {
content: "\2190 "; /* Unicode equivalent of ← */
display: inline-block;
padding: 5px;
background-color: aqua;
}
On the downside this won't work in IE 6 or 7. You might be able to work around that with some targeted javascript.
If you don't want to edit your HTML, you could give :first-letter a try. It only works on block-level elements, so you'll need to work accordingly, e.g.
a.back {
display: inline-block;
}
a.back:first-letter {
background-color: aqua;
padding: 5px;
}
I've had trouble getting this to display consistently cross-browser though. IE8 and FF3.6 do rather different things with the code.
