CSS:
h1 {
width: 25%;
margin: 11rem auto;
font-family: 'Baron Neue';
font-size: 4vw;
color: white;
text-align: center;
border-top: solid 2px white;
border-bottom: solid 2px white;
}
HTML:
<h1>POTJESMARKT</h1>
The h1 tag has <body> </body> as it's parent.
The problem is that the border on the top isn't attached to h1, while there's no padding there. What I would like eventually is about a 1rem padding between h1 and the border, at the top and bottom. I could solve this by adding padding at the bottom of h1, but if I then resize my browser window, the distance from h1 to border isn't equal anymore on top and bottom.
Solved it in an 'ugly' way:
I added padding-bottom: 1vw;
This way, the padding scales together with h1, which makes it acceptable.
Seeing as (technically), it's working here:
html,body{background:red;}
h1 {
width: 25%;
margin: 11rem auto;
font-family: 'Baron Neue';
font-size: 4vw;
color: white;
text-align: center;
border-top: solid 2px white;
border-bottom: solid 2px white;
}
<h1>POTJESMARKT</h1>
In which since I haven't actually got your font style installed, I believe your problem is with the font itself. In order to 'fix' this you could;
A: Find out the font's baseline margin (in px) and add the extra 'top' padding to your h1 element
B: Use a different/more common font
C: 'Guess' by adding some padding-bottom to your element.
Just some points I would like to note:
Ensure you import your font (so that everyone can 'use' it (i.e. google fonts))
I wouldn't really be that keen on using vw and vh unless actually needed
Again, personal preference would stop me from using 'rem' values, and either stick to em, px, or otherwise.
Here is a semantic answer:Header fiddle
html:
<h1><strong>Potjes market</strong><h1>
css:
h1 {
font-size:4em;
border:3px solid blacK;
}
h1 > strong {
position:relative;
bottom:0.1em;
}`
This pushes the text slightly up so that the border looks even above and below

I want to have one of those "i" icons appear next to a name on my site so people can click on it and look up more information. I have this HTML
<div id="personName"><h2>PersonA</h2> <div id="moreInfo">i</div></div>
and the below style
#personName {
display: block;
}
#moreInfo {
border-radius: 50%;
behavior: url(PIE.htc); /* remove if you don't care about IE8 */
width: 36px;
height: 36px;
padding: 8px;
background: #fff;
border: 2px solid #666;
color: #666;
text-align: center;
font: 32px Arial, sans-serif;
font-weight: bold;
font-style: italic;
display: inline-block;
}
The problem is I also have this style
* {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
which I need for a lot of other elements on my site and it seems to be throwing off the way my "i" graphic is appearing -- https://jsfiddle.net/ds9sqr0y/ . It also doesn't seem to be appearing next to the name, but maybe that's a separate issue.
That's because box-sizing: border-box includes both the border and the padding in the height computations.
Which means that if you create an element with height: 30px and padding-top: 5px, it will be 35px tall (height + padding) but with setting box-sizing: border-box, it will be 30px tall.
In your specific case, you can increase the height and width to the following to make it look like you want to:
width: 57px;
height: 57px;
As per Jesse de Bruijne's answer, you can set the padding property within the #moreInfo selector to 0. If you can, try and reduce the font size of the i, to better position it (I'm using Chrome). Setting it to 30px seems to show it better.
#moreInfo {
...
padding: 0;
font: 30px Arial, sans-serif;
...
}
How do I vertically align the characters/text inside an input without changing the height of the input (it has to be exactly 28px)? The input has this CSS, so I don't understand why it has some padding-top (?):
input {
font-family: arial;
font-size: 28px;
line-height: 28px;
height: 28px;
padding: 0;
border: none;
outline: none;
background-color:#cdcdcd;
}
<input value="asdg">
Some letters like g, p and q get cut off
Removing the margin-bottom doesn't help.
https://jsfiddle.net/4rtL6415/
There is no padding top, it's about font size. I've changed your snippet input with a special char that fit the whole height (I'll explain below):
input {
font-family: arial;
font-size: 28px;
line-height: 28px;
height: 28px;
padding: 0;
border: none;
outline: none;
background-color:#cdcdcd;
}
<input value="ￂgs">
This image:
Explain how a font is construct. 99% of the time you'll see characters with Body < EM and that's why we may think that there is a sort of padding-top.
Sometimes, you'll cross characters for which Body == EM, that's the case of ￂ (and a lot of others).
What you are seeing is not a bug but a feature. From here you have 3 choices:
Changing the font-size;
Changing the input height;
Changing the font-family for one that doesn't "overflow".
The choice is all yours.
The Problem
In some fonts, characters with descenders, like g, p, q, and y, "overflow" the vertical space defined by the font-size property. Normally, that's not a problem, because the line-height property provides enough extra space to accommodate the descenders. However, if the characters are placed in a container element with a fixed height that's less than the line-height, the descenders may get clipped if that's how the container handles overflow (text inputs being one example of such).
If you were hoping to bump the text up a few notches to avoid the clipping, then you'll be disappointed to know that there is currently no way to reposition text within its own line-height. (vertical-align, in case you were wondering, positions an inline element relative to its parent.) However, there are a few CSS tricks that we can use to achieve the same visual effect...
Solution 1 (Webkit only)
This one works by giving the input a large enough height to fit the font's lower extremities, and then using clip-path to trim it back down to 28px. This is probably the most elegant solution, but unfortunately, clip-path isn't well supported outside of Webkit browsers (Chrome, Safari, Opera).
input {
display: inline-block;
padding: 0;
border: none;
height: 32px;
font-size: 28px;
line-height: 32px;
font-family: arial;
background: #cdcdcd;
vertical-align: baseline;
-webkit-clip-path: inset(4px 0px 0px 0px);
clip-path: inset(4px 0px 0px 0px);
}
input: <input value="asdg">
Solution 2
This one was inspired by DebRaj's answer, but mine uses an inline-block wrapper instead of a block (not sure how you would use it otherwise). Like the previous solution, it increases the height of the input, but instead of using clip-path to trim it back down, it uses a container element with overflow: hidden;. This is probably the most practical approach until support for clip-path improves.
.text {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: baseline;
overflow: hidden;
margin: 7px 0 -7px 0;
height: 28px;
}
.text > input {
margin-top: -4px;
border: none;
padding: 0;
background: #cdcdcd;
font-size: 28px;
line-height: 32px;
font-family: arial;
}
input:<span class="text"><input value="asdg"></span>
Solution 3
Although you can't reposition text within its own line-height, this may be the next best thing. If you set the line-height to something less than the font-size, the text will indeed move upward relative to its normal baseline. That means you can bring the clipped parts into view without changing the container height. Unfortunately, if you try this with a text input, you'll discover a strange quirk: line-height is completely ignored if it's less than the input's height. So we'll have to substitute a different element, and turn it into an editable textbox somehow. That can be accomplished with the contenteditable attribute.
.fauxTextInput {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: baseline;
margin: 6px 0 -6px 0;
padding: 0 3px 0 3px;
width: 9em;
height: 28px;
overflow: hidden;
font-size: 28px;
line-height: 23px;
font-family: arial;
background: #cdcdcd;
}
Faux input: <span class="fauxTextInput" contenteditable>asdg</span>
As #Thomas mentioned there is a default spacing as per font construction rules. If we concentrate the output you want to achieve is make font exact same height at the input area, you can wrap your input into a div and give that a height to adjust the input into it using as a mask.
Here is the code:
<div class="input-wrapper">
<input value="asdg">
</div>
CSS:
.input-wrapper{
position: relative;
font-family: arial;
width: 100%;
height: 90%;
padding: 0;
background-color: #fff;
overflow: hidden;
}
.input-wrapper input {
display: block;
width: 100%;
height: 124%;
margin-top: -0.19em;
margin-bottom: 0em;
font-size: 28px;
padding: 0;
outline-offset: 0;
border: none;
}
.input-wrapper input:focus{
outline-offset: 0;
outline: 0;
border: none;
box-shadow: none;
}

Hope that helps.
Although there have been plenty of answers. I thought I'd add my solution to the bunch.
In this Fiddle, you can see how I managed to create an input field with a span tag, and the contenteditable attribute. The pros of taking this route are that the input field can stretch and wrap and that we can make it exactly 28px high.
In the CSS, I've added the following rules that are important:
span{
display: inline-block;
font-size: 25px; /*higher than 25px simply doesn't fit a 28px container*/
line-height: 1;
padding: calc(-.5em + 14px) 0;
}
display, of course, to style the bunch
font-size to declare the height of the font
line-height of 1 to make sure the text actually takes up 25px by default.
a padding of calc(-.5em + 14px) 0. And that's the tricky part
Because of this padding, the element will stay 28px high, while still centering the text. See the table below to see how the calculation works. The font-size and output * 2 always add up to a minimum of 28.
font-size | calculation | output |
--------------------------------------
50px | calc( -25px + 14px) | -11px | a negative padding translates to a padding of 0
25px | calc(-12.5px + 14px) | 1.5px |
20px | calc( -10px + 14px) | 4px |
15px | calc( -7.5px + 14px) | 6.5px |
10px | calc( -5px + 14px) | 9px |
With this code, you can edit the span's height by editing the 14px part in the calc, and edit the font-size without having to recalculate yourself
Hope this helps
Edited your fiddle here
The problem is your font is larger than the height of the element enclosing it. So you just need to set both the height and line-height to a couple of px larger than the font size you're using.
Hope this helps.
Just decrease the font-size:
input {
font-family: arial;
font-size: 20px;
line-height: 28px;
height: 28px;
padding: 0;
border: none;
outline: none;
background-color:#cdcdcd;
}
<input value="asdg">
I hope this will help you know what you want to achieve
In CSS, the line-height
property sets the height of
an entire line of text, so the
difference between the font-
size and the line-height is
equivalent to the leading (as
shown in the diagram above).
And our css is this
input {
font-family: arial;
font-size: 28px;
line-height: 28px;
height: 28px;
padding: 0;
border: none;
outline: none;
background-color:#cdcdcd;
}
Here we have set line-height and font size equal and because of that decent is getting cut.So you either need to decrease font-size or increase line-height.
input {
height:34px;
}
Just change height and line-height to 40px or more.
https://jsfiddle.net/525raf3L/
input {
font-family: arial;
font-size: 28px;
line-height: 40px;
height: 40px;
padding: 0 12px;
border: none;
outline: none;
background: yellow;
}
<input value="asdg">
i researched, it is a common bug, but none of the suggested fixes helps.

The margin comes from the CSS styles the browser automatically gives those elements. It is called user agent styles. You'll have to overwrite those defaults. In your case #banner h1 { margin: 0 auto;} should do it.
Take a look at Codes & Notes: Default browser styles and normalize for more on the topic.
You should reset your css. The reason is that different browsers have some different default css rules they apply to elements.
Some browsers come with pre-set values for margins and paddings for different elements, these values can differ from one browser to another, in order to get rid of this, you should reset them, in this case, add the folowing code to your h1 CSS:
margin:0px; padding:0px;
Also, there is this padding you added, the 80px one, if you don't need it get rid of it as well.
I am using different line-heights in my css and it is causing issues with my vertical spacing. I would like there to be the same amount above the horizontal rule as there is below.
This is an example of my issue:
My HTML
<div class="intro">
<p>The powered flight took a total of about eight and a half minutes. It seemed to me it had gone by in a lash. We had gone from sitting still on the launch pad at the Kennedy Space Center to traveling at 17,500 miles an hour in that eight and a half minutes. It is still mind-boggling to me. </p>
</div>
<hr />
<div class="normal">
<p>I recall making some statement on the air-to-ground radio for the benefit of my fellow astronauts, who had also been in the program a long time, that it was well worth the wait.</p>
</div>
<hr />
<div class="normal">
<p>The powered flight took a total of about eight and a half minutes. It seemed to me it had gone by in a lash. We had gone from sitting still on the launch pad at the Kennedy Space Center to traveling at 17,500 miles an hour in that eight and a half minutes. It is still mind-boggling to me.</p>
</div>
My CSS
.intro p { margin-bottom: 24px; font-size: 24px; line-height:36px; }
.normal p { margin-bottom: 18px; font-size: 16px; line-height:18px; }
hr { border-top: 1px solid rgb(200,200,200); margin: 10px 0}
You can also see it here:
http://codepen.io/dachan/pen/Csueb
Are there any solutions to my problem, minus having to manually create different margins for the hr tag?
Also, I do intend on having multiple paragraphs so any solution omitting a margin-bottom would not work for me.
If you know where you are in the text flow, just use a different rule style between the intro and the first text unit. The following will give you the same spacing above and below the first <hr/>
hr { border-top: 1px solid rgb(200,200,200); margin: 10px 0 28px 0 }
I do not use the <hr> tag cause it is hard o style properly, defintly in the great browser called IE.
In stead I use an empty div with a class .hr applied to it. My css would look something like this:
.hr {
border-top: 1px solid black;
margin-top: 10px;
height: 10px;
}
If you set the line-height of the text elements equal to the font-size, therefore making the height of the element equal to the height of the text. when you add the hr element the spacing should be the same.
.intro p { font-size: 24px; line-height:24px; }
.normal p { font-size: 16px; line-height:16px; }
hr { border-top: 1px solid rgb(200,200,200); margin: 10px 0}
I don't think your issue here is your line-height. You have defined a bottom margin for each of your paragraphs, but no top margin. Because of this, your second paragraph has default margin above it, making it closer to the hr.
One possible solution is to simply add margin-top equal to your margin-bottom.
.intro p { margin-bottom: 24px; font-size: 24px; line-height:36px; }
.normal p { margin-top: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; font-size: 16px; line-height:18px; }
hr { border-top: 1px solid rgb(200,200,200); margin: 10px 0; }
Example here: http://jsfiddle.net/3BEkL/1/
The other possibility, which may not be what you want, since it seems you are going for different spacing between the hr's based on the font-size/line-height of each paragraph, is
remove all margin styling from the paragraph elements and only apply margins to the hr elements.
.intro p { font-size: 24px; line-height:36px; }
.normal p { font-size: 16px; line-height:18px; }
hr { border-top: 1px solid rgb(200,200,200); margin: 30px 0; }

Problem
I am working on a project to theme a website, but I am not allowed to change the HTML or JavaScript. I can only update the CSS stylesheet and add/update images.
Requrements
I need to style a h3 tag to have an
underline/border after the content.
This h3 will be used multiple times
on the page, so the conent length can
vary
The solution needs to be
cross-browser (IE 6/7/8, FF 3, &
Safari)
Sample Code
<div class="a">
<div class="b"><!-- etc --></div>
<div class="c">
<h3>Sample Text To Have Line Afterwards</h3>
<ul><!-- etc --></ul>
<p class="d"><!-- etc --></p>
</div>
</div>
Sample Output
Sample Text to Have Line Afterwards ______________________________________
Another Example __________________________________________________________
And Yet Another Example __________________________________________________
Notes
I think #sample:after { content: "__________"; } option wouldn't work since that would only be the correct length for one of the tags
I tried a background-image, but if it gave me problems if I gave it one with a large width
Using text-indent didn't see to give me the effect I was looking for
I tried a combination of border-bottom and text-decoration: none, but that didn't seem to work either
Any ideas would be much appreciated!
This will work if class 'c' is always the parent of the h3...
.c {
position: relative;
margin-top: 25px;
border-top: 1px solid #000;
padding: 0px;
}
h3 {
font-size:20px;
margin-top: 0px;
position: absolute;
top: -18px;
background: #fff;
}
It lets the container have the border, then uses absolute positioning to move the h3 over it, and the background color lets it blot out the portion of c's border that it's covering.
try attaching a background image to class c of a repeating underline, then add a background color to the h3 to match the background of the container. I believe that you would have to float the h3 left in order to get the width to collapse. does that make sense?
.c {
background: #ffffff url(underline.gif) left 20px repeat-x;
}
.c h3 {
margin: 0;
padding: 0 0 2px 0;
float: left;
font-size: 20px;
background: #ffffff;
}
.c h3 { display: inline; background-color: white; margin: 0; padding: 0; line-height: 1em; }
.c ul { margin-top: -1px; border-top: 1px solid; padding-top: 1em; /* simulate margin with padding */ }
http://besh.dwich.cz/tmp/h3.html
H3 {
border: 1px solid red;
border-width: 0 0 1px 0;
text-indent: -60px;
}
You need to know the width of the text, but works pretty well.
The only solution I've imagined so far is to make a PNG or GIF image, with 1px height and a very large width (depends on your project, could be like 1x2000px), and do something like this:
h3#main-title { background: url(line.png) no-repeat bottom XYZem; }
where the XYZ you'd set manually, for each title, in 'em' units. But I can't figure out a 100% dynamic solution for this one, without using JS or adding extra markup.
this worked for me
div.c
{
background-image:url(line.gif);background-repeat:repeat-x;width:100%;height:20px;
}
div.c h3
{
height:20px;background-color:white;display:inline;
}
you make the div the width of your content
then you set the background of the h3 to the background of your page. this will then overlap the background imageof the full div. You might want to play with background positioning depending on your image
Can you pad content in the UL tags? If so, this might work:
h3 { display: inline; margin: 0; padding: 0 10px 0 0; float: left;}
ul { display: inline; border-bottom: 1px solid black; }
check source code of: http://nonlinear.cc/lab/friends/elijahmanor.html
then again i have NO IDEA how to control the end of the line.
Assuming that you're working with dynamic content, the best I could suggest is to accept graceful degradation and use a mix of great_llama and Bohdan Ganicky
Imagine:
A long title that will wrap to two lines___________________
and leave you like this in great_llama's solution
and nothing appearing at all with Bohdan Ganicky's solution if ul isn't immediate preceded by ul.
Solution:
.c h3 { display: inline; background-color: white; margin: 0; padding: 0; line-height: 1em; }
.c + * { margin-top: -1px; border-top: 1px solid; padding-top: 1em; /* simulate margin with padding */ }
We care about IE6, but accept that this is an aesthetic touch and IE6 users will not suffer. If you can't get the designer to accept this AND you can't alter the HTML, then do something else (before you find another job ;))
Here's a better answer:
.c {
background: url('line.png') repeat-x 0 20px;
}
H3 {
background-color: white;
display: inline;
position: relative;
top: 1px;
}
Use a small, 1px height, couple px wide image as your underline and occlude it with a background color on your H3.
h3:after {
content: '___________';
}
