I am creating a web page that needs to be responsive.
Here is an image of it:
Here is the HTML:
<div class="smallBoxes">
<div class="leftHomeBox">
<a class="Description" id="Desc_1">WHEN?</a>
</div>
</div>
and the CSS:
.smallBoxes{
display:block;
margin-left:25%;
margin-right:20%;
width:auto;
}
.leftHomeBox{
width:100%;
float:left;
margin-bottom:10px;
padding:10px;
padding-bottom:0;
height:65px;
}
.Description{
border:5px solid #ffffff;
padding:5px;
}
I am trying to keep the "when" box in the centre of the div, for all screen sizes. AS things are now, both margins will change, but at different rates eg they do not stay consistent relative to each other and so the "when" box doe s not stay central.
I have looked at other websites and have not been able to find a working example.
I have tried using
margin-left:20%;
margin-right:20%;
width:auto;
but this does not work. I have been working on this all day and I have read all I can find but I cannot seem to get this to work. I have tried every possible thing I can think of.
Surely this is something that is required often and cannot be very difficult to achieve, but I am not able to find a clear answer to how to achieve this, or what I am doing wrong.
If someone could provide a fiddle of a working solution I would be very grateful.
use
CSS
.leftHomeBox{
text-align:center
}
DEMO
.Description
{
display:block;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
}
This should be work.
You can apply a text-align: center on an <a> tag.
.leftHomeBox{
text-align:center
}
It will center the link without using margins

So, I have this thing where this image sits on top of anything, regardless of how much I alter the z-index. I want to make it so that the bluff tag sits on top of the .quoteicon, but no matter what I do it just doesn't work. The little quotation mark I've put inside of it shows up, but the red background of it is hidden behind.
I want it to look like this (I had to do this in photoshop, just to explain what I want.):
http://i.gyazo.com/3eddbf25f79c97fb7d646d6050c1b23a.png
But it currently looks like this (You can see the little white quotation sitting in front of it.):
http://i.gyazo.com/0859417a1746ba934896dea46acc073d.png
The CSS:
.quotewrap{
margin-bottom:30px;
}
.quoteicon{
width:60px;
margin-bottom:-58px;
padding-right:5px;
border-right:5px #F0F0F0 solid;
z-index:998;
}
.quoteicon img{
border:5px solid white;
outline:1px solid #F4F4F4;
}
.bluff{
background-color:red;
text-shadow:1px 1px black;
height:34px;
width:34px;
color:white;
font-family:arial;
line-height:34px;
text-align:center;
font-size:20px;
margin-top:-10px;
z-index:999;
}
THE HTML:
<div class="quotewrap">
<div class="quoteicon">
<img src="https://33.media.tumblr.com/avatar_d020f5726f28_48.png">
</div>
<div class="bluff">❝</div>
</div>

You have to understand the principles of position relative and position absolute.
That will help you a lot.
Take your time and go through the fiddle, if you have any questions, let me know.
Cheers,
z-index attribute works only for containers with position: relative|absolute|fixed;
I've a little problem with arranging nav/div on a website. Google didn't revealed me a solution, but to be honest, I didn't really know how to search for it...
What I'd like to have at the end:
On the left side, a <nav> (data selection) is visible. On the right side, several <div> (graphs) are shown like a table with 2 columns and infinite lines, resp. max. two graphs side by side. The field of the <nav> shall be independently which means no <div> from the right side should be below of the <nav>.
How I have to implement the css file?
If you click this hyperlink, you'll see the current situation of the arrangement:
Screenshot of the nav and the divs
Later on: the goal is to realize a Drag&Drop behavior as described here: HTML5 Drag&Drop. It should be possible, to drag the data from the <nav> and to drop it into any of the graph-<div> for visualization.
Thanks!
In your CSS try:
display: inline-block;
CSS
nav {
width:30%; //<----Occupying 30% of total width, change it as required
float:left;
}
#charts-wrapper {
float:left;
width:68%; //<----Occupying 68% of total width and occurs on right of nav, change it as required
margin-left:1%;
margin-top:10px;
}
.charts {
float: left;
width:32%; //<-----Equal area within charts
margin-left:0.5%;
}
Demo Fiddle
From what i understand from reading your question you would like to have a navigation bar on the left and another container with images/graphs on the right?
Here is a js fiddle I put together quick demonstrating floats: http://jsfiddle.net/HzS3m/1/
HTML:
<body>
<nav id="nav">
HTML
CSS
JavaScript
jQuery
</nav>
<div id="graphs">
<img src="#">
<img src="#">
<img src="#">
</div>
</body>
CSS:
nav{
width:20%;
height:200px;
background-color:#f00;
float:left;
}
#graphs{
width:80%;
overflow:auto;
background-color:#ff0;
float:right;
text-align:center;
}
img{
width:300px;
height:90px;
border:1px solid #000;
}
Floats are a good way to align html/div elements side by side.
Hope this is of some help to you.
How can I make h3 tag appear like this?
I tried to apply width and max-width css rules (e.g width: 120px; or 150px) but the words appears to each next to each other.
Any suggestion?
One of the ways to do that:
h3{
text-transform:uppercase;
background:green;
color:white;
float:left;
text-align:center;
width:100px;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/fgu6W/
There are more than few, I guess.
<h3> SELL <br> ANYWHERE </h3>
You need to provide more HTML/CSS code for a better answer, but with the information provided I would assume you may need to set your h3 tag to display: block
In this example, I did not need to set display to block, it just works: http://jsfiddle.net/vwwZs/
So maybe you have some other conflicting CSS being applied.
Hope this helps
<h3 style="text-align:center;">
SELL
<br>
ANYWHERE
</h3>
Use text-align:center combined with fixed width : http://jsfiddle.net/wQUyR/
h3 {
background:blue;
display:block;
width:70px;
text-align:center;
}
See the jsfiddle and it would be great if you provide your code.
<h3 style="width:100px;text-align:center;color:white;background:black"> SELL ANYWHERE </h3>
Like so:
<h3 style="width:120px;text-align:center;text-transform:uppercase;">Sell Anywhere</h3>
Without inline styling:
<h3 class="sell-anywhere">Sell Anywhere</h3>
h3.sell-anywhere
{
width: 120px;
text-alignment:center;
text-transform:uppercase;
}
I've a text as below is not aligning as vertical in the middle of icon.
How do I solve this, please?
align top http://www.kerrydeaf.com/ali.png
CSS:
#text{ color:#48c4d2; font-size:15px; font-family:opensansitalic;}
HTML:
<div class="blurb"><button class="blue_small" id="blue_small"></button> Available in video.</div>
UPDATE:
This should explain it.
align top http://www.kerrydeaf.com/ali2.png
You should be using a CSS background image and use padding-left: to move the text over, and use background-position: to adjust the position of the image. And if it's a link, use an A-tag, not a button.
Available in video.
No need to nest tags as you're doing.
Something like:
.videoBlurb {
display:block;
background-image:url(....);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:0px 0px;
padding-left:40px;
padding-top:20px;
color:#48c4d2;
font-size:15px;
font-family:opensansitalic;
}
Diodeus makes a good point and definitely has the most useful answer, but for the sake of curiosity without changing your markup - it should actually be this simple:
button {
vertical-align:middle;
}
Of course, be more specific with the selector. Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/beV7j/2
I have created a stack of div tags and used z-indexes to make them appear behind each other.
They overlap enough for them all to be visible and mouse-overable. I then assigned a :hover to change the z-index and make the div tag which is being hovered over come to the top of the pile.
An example of what I have would be...
CSS
#red-box {
position:fixed;
width:170px;
height:210px;
margin-left:70px;
top:40px;
background-color:red;
z-index:3;
}
#red-box:hover {
z-index:5;
}
#blue-box{
position:fixed;
width:170px;
height:210px;
margin-left:150px;
top:70px;
background-color:blue;
z-index:2;
}
#blue-box:hover{
z-index:5;
}
HTML
<a id="red-box"></a>
<a id="blue-box"></a>
I have also created a jsFiddle to help highlight what's going on.
This works great in the latest versions of all the browsers but the div tags' z-indexes do not change in IE8.
Could anyone help me fix it?
This ought to fix it:
http://brenelz.com/blog/squish-the-internet-explorer-z-index-bug/
Basically, just set it to a ridiculously high number.
Edit: I just tested this in my version of IE on your JSFiddle, and it worked.
