Switching from tables to divs for layout purposes sounds an attractive decision, yet it's very painful. I haven't still been able to use float and oveflow properly to get divs aligned properly. Here are I have the following html and css:
HTML
<div class="div-row">
<div id="divOfficers" class="div-column">DIVOFFICERS</div>
<div id="divTasks">DIVTASKS</div>
CSS
.div-row {
width:100%;
overflow:clear;
margin-bottom:5px;
}
.div-column {
margin-right:3px;
float:left;
}
#divOfficers {
border:3px solid red;
height:80px;
width:200px;
color:red;
}
#divTasks{
width:300px;
height:80px;
border:10px solid orange;
color:orange;
}
Basically, I need the divTasks to stand right to the divOfficers, but without stretching over it. But here's what I get:
I've cleared the overflow in the parent div but as you can see that does not help. What else do I have to do?
just give a float:right to divtasks as well as you did float:left with divofficers. if it is what you want than your problem solved or let me know if you need something else to do and put your code on jsfiddle please as it will help a lot
Try use CSS3 code, If you use float maybe have problem with long content
.div-row {
width:100%;
overflow:clear;
margin-bottom:5px;
display: table;
}
.div-column {
margin-right:3px;
}
#divOfficers {
border:3px solid red;
height:80px;
width:200px;
color:red;
display: table-cell;
}
#divTasks{
width:300px;
height:80px;
border:10px solid orange;
color:orange;
display: table-cell;
}

I was looking at Android developer's website and I wanted to copy how they designed the article's animation when someone hovered on top of it. As such I tried to make something similar in plain HTML/CSS. However, I am running into an issue.
I used float expecting that the div tags would seperate from one another and apply the appropriate margins. However, It seems that the div tags are stacking on top of each other instead of being spread out.
I wanted them to look like this
but it ended up looking like this

I provided my files below.
HTML
<div class="new"><div>
<div class="new"><div>
<div class="new"><div>
CSS
body {
background: white;
font-family:courier;
padding:20px 100px 20px 100px;
}
.new {
width:100px;
height:100px;
background-color:white;
position: relative;
border:2px solid black;
float:left;
padding:15px;
border-radius:5%;
}
.new::before {
content:"";
width:100px;
height:100px;
padding:15px;
background-color:black;
position:absolute;
transform:translate(-6px,-6px);
border-radius:5%;
z-index: -1;
}
.new:hover:before{
animation-name:click;
animation-duration:500ms;
animation-fill-mode:forwards;
}
#keyframes click {
0% {
transform:translate(-6px,-6px);
}
100% {
transform:translate(-10px,-10px);
}
}
Thank you for your help!
You need to close your div tags like so </div>, then you could put these 3 div in a flex container and space them evenly.
hope this helps
Yeah, my titles suck :p
So I have a container, which contains <div>s. Dotted in this container are <span>s that mark off labels. These <span>s have position:absolute to make them not interfere with the layout of the <div>s.
#container {
border:1px solid red;
width:270px;
}
#container>div {
display:inline-block;
width:80px;
height:80px;
border:1px solid blue;
margin:4px;
}
#container>span {
position:absolute;
background:#ccf;
}
<!-- Please forgive the lack of spaces - this DOM is dynamically generated -->
<div id="container"><span>Marker</span><div></div><div></div><span>Marker</span><div></div><span>Marker</span><div></div><div></div></div>
In Internet Explorer, this works fine.
In Chrome, it does not. The label falls out of the box.
I understand why this happens - it's because the <span> has zero width and height within the flow of the document, allowing it to squeeze into the zero remaining space.
But I'm wondering if there's any other way to achieve the effect I want here?
EDIT: Desired effect, Chrome's bad effect
don't really quite get where you want them, something like this ? added display block to the span.
#container {
border:1px solid red;
width:270px;
}
#container>div {
display:inline-block;
width:80px;
height:80px;
border:1px solid blue;
margin:4px;
}
#container>span {
display:block;
position:absolute;
background:#ccf;
}
<!-- Please forgive the lack of spaces - this DOM is dynamically generated -->
<div id="container"><span>Marker</span><div></div><div></div><div></div><span>Marker</span><div></div><div></div></div>

Borrowing ideas from #Billy and with help from #JacobGray in the comments, the following solution applies display:block to <span>s, but only if the immediately follow an Nth <div>, N being the number of columns.
It works, but I'm not too happy with it being dependent on a constant number of columns - not great for responsive design ;) Better solutions are of course welcome.
#container {
border:1px solid red;
width:270px;
}
#container>div {
display:inline-block;
width:80px;
height:80px;
border:1px solid blue;
margin:4px;
}
#container>span {
position:absolute;
background:#ccf;
}
#container>div:nth-of-type(3n)+span {
display:block;
}
<!-- Please forgive the lack of spaces - this DOM is dynamically generated -->
<div id="container"><span>Marker</span><div></div><div></div><span>Marker</span><div></div><span>Marker</span><div></div><div></div></div>
Adding display:block to the span is what I'd suggest, or putting a marker span inside every div you want to label.
If I understand well, try this. Put tags <span> into each <div> that you want have a "label". Add position:relative to all <div> and set the properties top and left for the span.
Ps. I've modified your code below, but you should use classes
#container {
border:1px solid red;
width:270px;
}
#container>div {
display:inline-block;
width:80px;
height:80px;
border:1px solid blue;
margin:4px;
position: relative;/* added */
}
#container>div>span {/* modified */
position:absolute;
background:#ccf;
top:-5px;/* added */
left:-5px;/* added */
}
<div id="container"><div><span>Marker</span></div><div></div><div><span>Marker</span></div><div><span>Marker</span></div><div></div></div>

In the example above, logo has a right margin and I can't put menu near it without resizing it(it should be 100x100) or it being pushed under it. Where did the margin came from and how can I get rid of it?
Code as requested.
<body>
<div id="header">
<div id="logo">logo</div>
<div id="menu">menu</div>
</div>
<div id="cont">under</div>
</body>
#header {
width:200px;
height:100px;
outline:solid 1px black;
}
#logo { display:inline-block;
width:100px;
height:100px;
outline:solid 1px black;
}
#menu {
display:inline-block;
width:96px;
height:96px;
outline:solid 1px black;
}
#cont {
outline:solid 1px black;
width:200px;
height:300px;
}
As i mentionned in my comments, you are dealing with white-space coming from your HTML code when set element as inline-boxes.
There s many ways, and one example provided was to remove it from code . logo</div><div id="menu" as shown here : http://jsfiddle.net/6CQUT/2/
But the best, i guess is to link to some tutorials to understand what is going on (links picked up from a search engine :) ):
http://css-tricks.com/fighting-the-space-between-inline-block-elements/

How to remove the space between inline-block elements?
One option is to keep display: inline-block and add this: http://codepen.io/pageaffairs/pen/fKkbE
#header {
word-spacing:-.25em; /* hide whitespace nodes in all modern browsers (not for webkit)*/
display:table;/* Webkit Fix */
}
#header div {
word-spacing:0; /* reset from parent*/
}
I had the same issue. In the css margin: -2px; seemed to solve it for me.
I have a error message to be displayed
i can center it using text-align center if there was no background. but now its clearly visible that it occupies the whole width of the container it being a <p>.
so i gave width and margin:0 auto;
but i cant give its class to every other error message because width changes.
so is there any way to center it without giving width.
here is what i currently have JSFIDDLE
HTML:
<p class="error"><b>Error:</b> Dont select corners, select edges!</p>
CSS:
.error{
padding:15px;
border:1px solid #ebccd1;
border-radius:4px;
background-color: #f2dede;
margin:0 auto;
font-family:consolas;
font-size:17px;
color:#a94442;
width:370px;
}
Change the display of the p element to inline-block and then add text-align:center to the parent element to center it.
UPDATED EXAMPLE HERE
.parent {
text-align:center;
}
.error {
padding:15px;
border:1px solid #ebccd1;
border-radius:4px;
background-color: #f2dede;
font-family:consolas;
font-size:17px;
color:#a94442;
display:inline-block;
}
Alternatively, you could change the display of the p element to table as King King points out.
It's worth noting that this approach wouldn't work in IE7 though.
You can use display:table for the p:
.error {
...
display:table;
}
Demo.
I have a photo gallery and my photos are diplayed as thumbnails.
When I resize the browser they move as I want them to but instead of getting evenly pushed down on to the next line they instead go down but overlap oeach other.
When the browser is full, the images display fine. Here is a screenshot showing the images moved and overlapping when the browser is smaller:
I currently use this code if it helps.
div.photoimg
{
margin:2px;
padding: 5px;
height:auto;
width:auto;
float:left;
text-align:center;
}
div.img photoimg
{
display:inline;
margin:3px;
}
div.img a:hover img
{
border:1px solid #0000ff;
}
div.desc
{
text-align:center;
font-weight:normal;
width:200px;
margin:2px;
}
Many thanks for any help.
I am not sure, but try instead of
div.img photoimg { display:inline; }
use
div.img photoimg { display:block; }
