So i have nested divs in chrome
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="content">
</div>
</div>
The wrapper div is just a bordered container in the shape of a box. On safari/firefox the content resides inside of the box and 50% of chrome the content div resides in the box however the other 50% of the time it is outside of the box. I don't really know what to do as it works in Safari and firefox and for some reason is a toss up in chrome. Could it just my computer? Has anyone experienced this problem?
Thanks
#wrapper{
display: block;
position: absolute;
top: 5%;
left: 0;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 90%;
background-color: #efefef;
}
#content{
height:78px;
width:100%;
border-bottom:solid 1px gray;
font-weight:1000;
margin-left:0px !important;
background-color:white;
}
Have you tried box-sizing: border-box; on the #wrapper?
When you use position: absolute; it removes the element from the natural element flow on the page. If you're able to, you should remove the absolute position.
Keep in mind that if you want to use height percentages, you will need to define the top level element to be 100%.
body,html {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
Body and HTML will inherit from Window. Then all other elements on the page will inherit from body or html.
Here's the full:
body, html {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
#wrapper{
display: block;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 90%;
background-color: #efefef;
}
#content{
height:78px;
width:100%;
border-bottom:solid 1px gray;
font-weight:1000;
margin-left:0px !important;
background-color:white;
}

The trade-off, and most important thing to remember, about absolute
positioning is that these elements are removed from the flow of
elements on the page. An element with this type of positioning is not
affected by other elements and it doesn't affect other elements. This
is a serious thing to consider every time you use absolute
positioning. It's overuse or improper use can limit the flexibility of
your site.

I am a novice at CSS/HTML and need help with a certain issue. I am trying to make my opening div (w/ background image) cover the entire screen (which I have done successfully). The problem is, no matter what I try, I cannot get the next div to start after the initial div. I am including my HTML and CSS. Problem is that I cannot cause #map-contain to start after #opening. Thought it would simply be 'positioning' issue but I cannot solve this. Please help. http://jsfiddle.net/nELQF/ - (need black div to start at bottom of red div)
HTML
<div id="opening">
</div>
<div id="map-section">
</div>
CSS
html, body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
min-height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
#opening {
position: absolute;
top: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0; left: 0;
border: 1px solid orange;
background-image: url('DSC_0577.JPG');
background-position: center;
background-size: cover;
}
#map-section {
width: 100%;
height: 800px;
background-color: black;
}
Given that the top element is absolutely positioned, you could do the same with the second element and set top:100% in order prevent the elements from overlapping.
Updated Example
#map-section {
width: 100%;
position: absolute;
height: 800px;
top: 100%;
background-color: black;
}
As an alternative, an arguably better approach allowing you to avoid having to absolutely position both elements would be to simply set a height of 100% on the html/body elements.
Example Here
I have an image in my website that is defined with the following CSS:
#settings_big{
border: none !important;
margin: auto 0 0 0 !important;
padding: 0 !important;
float: right;
}
Because of the float the image obviously sits on the right side of the content. The top margin causes the image to sit right beneath the lowest hanging element in the content. This looks OK, but I would really prefer that the image sit as low as possible in the browser window to somewhat frame the content. I've seen multiple examples that use fixed positioning to achieve this, and this would work, however my content has a max and min width of 960px; using a fixed position of
bottom: 0;
right: 0;
causes the image to get pushed far right outside of the content to the edge of the browser window. Is it possible to push the image to the bottom of the browser window while keeping the
float: right;
positioning? I would rather not use JavaScript or jQuery but it is an option I suppose. Thanks in advance.
New answer:
<div class="container contentCont">
<div id="content"></div>
</div>
<div class="container imageCont">
<div id="image"></div>
</div>
With CSS:
.container {
width: 200px;
margin: 0 auto;
background: #ccc;
}
.contentCont {
min-height: 600px;
}
.imageCont {
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
right: 0;
left: 0;
}
#image {
float: right;
width: 20px;
height: 20px;
border: 4px solid red;
}
Does it right as in this JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/WYX7H/1/
The following might be close to what you need.
Assuming that your page layout vaguely looks like the following HTML:
<div class="wrapper">
<p>some words...</p>
<div class="slot">
<img src="http://placehold.it/200x200">
</div>
</div>
apply the following CSS:
.wrapper {
width: 600px;
height: 600px; /* for demo only, not critical... */
margin: 0 auto;
border: 1px solid blue;
}
.slot {
text-align: right;
position: fixed;
left: 50%;
bottom: 0;
margin-left: -301px;
width: 600px;
border: 1px dotted blue;
}
.wrapper img {
vertical-align: top;
}
See demo at: http://jsfiddle.net/audetwebdesign/6Xnxj/
If you don't know the width of the image (or you don't want to specify it),
create a wrapper that matches the width of the parent element and apply position: fixed to it.
The image can then be either floated or text-aligned to the right within the fixed block.
The fixed block can then be positioned to the left and bottom, and using margin-left
to keep it centered.
I have this container which can scroll the content. I would like the header in this container to always stay in the top.
http://jsfiddle.net/z9ze5/
Container:
.lists {
width: 300px;
height: 250px;
margin: 30px auto;
background: #39C;
overflow: scroll;
position: relative;
}
Header:
.box_header {
width: 100%;
height:30px;
overflow:hidden;
position: absolute;
margin: 0;
background: #DDD;
z-index: 999;
}
If you are willing to alter your mark-up, here is one way of doing it:
<div class="lists">
<header class="box_header">
<h1>HEADER 2</h1>
<div class="setting" id="btn2"></div>
</header>
<section class="content">
<p>Lorem Ipsum ....</p>
</section>
</div>
Wrap your scroll area in a <section> (or other block level element).
For your CSS:
.lists {
width: 300px;
height: 250px;
margin: 30px auto;
background: #39C;
position: relative;
}
section.content {
width: 300px;
height: 220px;
margin: 0 auto;
background: #39C;
position: relative;
top: 30px;
overflow: scroll;
}
Please see fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/audetwebdesign/nGGXx/
More Advanced Example
If you study the following example:
http://jsfiddle.net/audetwebdesign/fBNTP/
uou can see how your scrolling boxes could be applied in a semi-flexible layout.
I lined up two scrolling boxes side by side and made their width proportionate to the width of the page.
The height is trickier to adjust. I fixed the height of the parent container, see the following rule:
.contentWrapper {
border: 1px solid red;
margin-top: 1.00em;
padding: 30px 0;
overflow: auto;
height: 400px;
}
If you change the height from 400px to some other value, the scrolling boxes will adjust themselves.
Hopefully, these examples will give you and others some more insights into how to build these more advanced layout designs.
If you want a non-css fix, add this listener...
$('.lists').scroll(function() {
$('.box_header', this).css('top', $(this).scrollTop()+'px');
});
and then change .lists css to give relative positioning
.box_header {
width: 100%;
height:30px;
overflow:hidden;
position: relative;
margin: 0;
background: #DDD;
z-index: 999;
}
Any position absolute within a position relative is absolute to the relative container. In order to have a header that stays in position, you'd need to position it above, not within, the scrolling container.
look at adding position: fixed to your header div .box_header. You may have to add padding of the height of the box header div to section.content but as you have that set to 30px that should be fine. IE6 and lower has issues with fixed positioning but hopefully we can live with that now - less people are using that than are still listening to Moby.

As you can see from the picture, my parent container is not expanding to fit my child container. The page container (#contain) actually stops at the bottom left hand corner of the kitchen photograph. The child container (#zone2) is clearly overflowing outside its parent container (#contain). I would like to be able to have (#contain) expand automatically to fit (#zone2). The CSS is:
#contain {
position: relative;
width: 100%;
margin: 0 px;
background: #E3DCCC;
z-index: 0;
}
#zone1 {
width: 100%;
height: 850px;
background: url(http://waly1039.com/sites/default/files/k4.jpg) no-repeat center top;
position: absolute;
z-index: -1;
}
#head {
position: absolute;
top: 20px;
width: 100%;
height: 330px;
}
#head img {
max-width: auto;
height: auto;
}
#zone2 {
position: relative;
overflow: hidden;
padding: 3px;
top: 360px;
float: right;
right: 15px;
width: 53%;
height: auto;
border: 4px solid #715E40;
background-color: white;
}
#zone2 img {
max-width:100%;
height: auto;
float:left;
margin: 5px;
}
#zone3 {
position: relative;
top: 710px;
left: 15px;
float: left;
height: 340px;
width: 38%;
border: 4px solid #715E40;
background-color: white;
}
This is a float issue. Try adding the traditional CSS clear fix to #zone2's container:
.container:after{
visibility: hidden;
display: block;
font-size: 0;
content: " ";
clear: both;
height: 0;
}
Be sure to put this in the :after pseudo selector, otherwise it won't work for you. Floated elements exist outside of normal document flow, which is why the container isn't expanding to contain them. The clear fix forces the floats to be cleared, which will cause the container to expand around the bottom of this element.
I tested adding more images to #zone2 and #contain expands vertically. Somehow you've got an element(s) in #zone2 with padding or margins that aren't being added to the parent's total height.
If you want a quick fix in order to move on then add margin-bottom: 30px; to #zone2.
I've duplicated your problem and was able to resolve it with this: You might want to try it. It's looks a bit odd so make a class for it if you like. I'm more concern with where it is placed.
Just beneath lines of your code, add my third line. Just that and you are done. Note, it more about positioning.
<div id="zone3"></div>
<div id="zoneclear"></div>
<br style="clear:both; float:none; display:block; height:1px;" />
Just add the third line.
and just modify one of your styles:
#zoneclear {
clear: both;
float:none;
display:block;
height: 30px;
position: relative;
}
[EDIT]
The codes have a serious bug in firefox which is not present in Google Chrome (that I tested in earlier due to your relative positioning. So I've modified the #zoneclear style to fix that. You might have to test if the other browsers like this hack.
I hope it helps you
I have a simple HTML page with a sidebar floated to the left and all content to the right. In the main content area I have an <iframe>. However, when I use CSS to set the height of the frame to 100% it seems to overflow the containing div for some reason, resulting in a small amount of white-space after my content.
Here is my HTML content:
<div id="container">
<div id="sidebar">
<p>Sidebar content</p>
</div>
<div id="content">
<iframe id="contentFrame"></iframe>
</div>
</div>
And here is my CSS:
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
#container {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
background-color: grey;
}
#sidebar {
width: 100px;
float: left;
background-color: blue;
height: 100%;
}
#content {
margin-left: 100px;
height: 100%;
background-color: yellow;
}
#contentFrame {
border: none;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
background-color: pink;
height: 100%;
}
(NOTE: Before anybody asks, #container { position: absolute } is necessary for layout reasons; I can't change that.)
You can see it 'working' on this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/9q7yp/
The aim is to get rid of the white band along the bottom of the page (i.e. there shouldn't be a vertical scroll-bar in the result). If I set overflow: hidden for #content then the problem goes away. I'm happy to do this if necessary, but I can't for the life of me work out why it doesn't work without this. Can anyone tell me why?
Try to add
display:block;
to the iframe. http://jsfiddle.net/9q7yp/14/
Edit:
Well, it turns out there's a better solution (both in practice and in understanding what's going on):
Add
vertical-align:bottom;
to iframe#contentFrame. http://jsfiddle.net/9q7yp/17/
<iframe>, as an inline element, has the initial value of vertical-align:baseline, but a height:100% inline element will "push" the base line a few pixels lower (because initially the baseline is a few pixels higher from the bottom),
so the parent DIV is thinking "well content will be 2 pixels lower, I need to make room for that".
You can see this effect in this fiddle (check your browser console and pay attention to the bottom property of both ClientRect object).
