Why will my body not accept my margins? - html

I am building a site for my school's robotics team. This is my first time ever coding in html/css. For some reason, my other pages use the margins quite nicely, but for this page specifically, my "margin-right" element does not work.

It's true, the HTML and CSS are a mess but as you said you're new to this.
The layout problem has to do with the widths of your team member sections inside that element. They're forcing it to stretch out.
I'd recode the CSS for the team members.
Start by removing the pixels widths on each team member's and set them to percentage based widths.
Make the team member's main element 100% wide so it just fills the container it's sitting in.
Then set their info and picture wrapping elements to 49% each.
Set the image inside the picture wrapping element to 100% and auto for the height.
Do all these widths etc in your CSS file.
That should fix you right up.
Lastly, if you're gonna do the floats put a "clearing div" after each team member so the next section if forced below the previous run. Otherwise things will run into each other.
Like this:
<div class="clear"></div>
.clear { clear: both; }
In the end, you should really simply your code. There's too many classes etc. All the team member sections could have the same class so you can apply global rules etc.

Providing dynamic paddin-lfet style to nested LI's

Here in my css I have given style padding(1.5rem,3rem,4.5rem,6rem) to its LI's by each nesting, but this is something hard coded, my nesting can go to N numbers, so this approach i can not use, Is there was better approach i can handle this with CSS ?
.parent ul { list-style: none; padding: 0; margin:0 }
li { margin:0; padding: 0; cursor:pointer}
li a {display: block;}
.container ul a {padding-left:1.5rem}
.container ul ul a {padding-left:3rem}
.container ul ul ul a {padding-left:4.5rem}
.container ul ul ul ul a {padding-left:6rem}
li a:hover {
background:green;

Looks Only solution left is using javascript
var parents = document.getElementsByClassName('parent');
var allUls= parents[0].querySelectorAll('ul');
allUls.forEach(function(x,i){
var i = i+1;
var y = x.querySelectorAll('.sid');
y.forEach(function(x1){
x1.style.paddingLeft = 1.5 * i+'rem';
})
})
ul { list-style: none; padding: 0; margin:0 }
li { margin:0; padding: 0; cursor:pointer}
li a {display: block;}
li a:hover {
background:red;

How to store the | in HTML?

I was wondering what will be the best practice for me to use the | i.e. do I wrap it in a div class or store it in a span tag? Basically what I want to achieve is the following.
Ask a question | Privacy | Statement
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<footer role="contentinfo">
<div class="footer-bottom hidden-print">
<div class="Container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-12">

Please advise.

No need to have special characters at all.
Just use a right-border...
ul {
display:flex;
justify-content:center;
list-style:none;
}
li {
padding:0 1em;
}
li:not(:last-child) {
border-right:3px solid red;
}
<footer role="contentinfo">
<div class="footer-bottom hidden-print">
<div class="Container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-12">
<ul class="list list--inline" role="menu" aria-label="Navigation">
<li role="menuitem" aria-label="Ask a question">

Privacy
</li>
<li role="menuitem" aria-label="Statement">
Statement
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</footer>
Alternatively, use a pseudo-element
ul {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
list-style: none;
}
li {
padding: 0 1em;
position: relative;
}
li:not(:last-child):after {
content: "";
position: absolute;
right: 0;
top: 10%;
height: 80%;
width: 3px;
background: green;
}
<footer role="contentinfo">
<div class="footer-bottom hidden-print">
<div class="Container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-12">
<ul class="list list--inline" role="menu" aria-label="Navigation">
<li role="menuitem" aria-label="Ask a question">

</li>
<li role="menuitem" aria-label="Privacy">

</li>
<li role="menuitem" aria-label="Statement">

</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</footer>

You can use CSS border-right with pseudo-selectors for this so you don't have to have the pipe (|) in your markup.
Pseudo-Selectors
:not() -- exclude what is inside the brackets
:first-child -- first of this type of descendant
:last-child -- last of this type of descendant
descendant, as in your markup, as li is the child (descendant) of ul.
ul[role="menu"].list {
list-style: none;
display: flex;
}
li[role="menuitem"]:not(:first-child) {
padding-left: 0.5rem;
}
li[role="menuitem"]:not(:last-child) {
padding-right: 0.5rem;
border-right: 1px solid grey;
}
<footer role="contentinfo">
<div class="footer-bottom hidden-print">
<div class="Container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-12">

What I would like to happen is that at any resolution below 992px, the lists will each take up 50% of the column creating 3 rows of 2 lists each except for the last (since I have 5 lists)
Here is my sass code: (maxMQ is just a mixin for a media query and $md-max-width is 992px)
.footer {
.links {
float: left;
display: inline-block;
width: calc(100% / 5);
#include maxMQ($md-max-width) {
margin-top: 30px;
width: 50%;
}
.title {
font-size: 14px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
padding-bottom: 7px;
display: inline-block;
border-bottom: 2px solid $highlight-blue;
}
ul {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
display: block;
}
li {
margin-top: 5px;
font-size: 13px;
a {
color: #ffffff;
text-decoration: none;
cursor: pointer;
}
}
}
The problem is that when I reduce resolution below 992px (mobile/tablet), the 3rd list skips a spot on the second row. so it looks something like this:
row 1: list list
row 2: list
row 3: list list
What I want is:
row 1: list list
row 2: list list
row 3: list
I have no idea why this is happening. I do know that when I remove the ul's from within the 'links' divs it works fine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

This is due to the floating elements, the first element has more height than the second one and it's creating this issue on the second row.
To fix this and you can use flex and remove the floating:
.links {
float: left;
display: inline-block;
width: calc(100% / 5);
}
#media all and (max-width:992px) {
.footer-links {
display: flex;
flex-wrap:wrap;
}
.links {
margin-top: 30px;
width: 50%;
float: none;
}
.title {
font-size: 14px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
padding-bottom: 7px;
display: inline-block;
border-bottom: 2px solid $highlight-blue;
}
ul {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
display: block;
}
li {
margin-top: 5px;
font-size: 13px;
}
li a {
color: #000 text-decoration: none;
cursor: pointer;
}
}

Or simply remove floating without adding flex but you need to fix white spaces issue to have them 50% width:
.links {
float: left;
display: inline-block;
width: calc(100% / 5);
}
#media all and (max-width:992px) {
.footer-links {
font-size: 0; /* remove white spaces */
}
.links {
margin-top: 30px;
width: 50%;
float: none;
font-size: initial; /* put back font as initial*/
vertical-align:top;
}
.title {
font-size: 14px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
padding-bottom: 7px;
display: inline-block;
border-bottom: 2px solid $highlight-blue;
}
ul {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
display: block;
}
li {
margin-top: 5px;
font-size: 13px;
}
li a {
color: #000 text-decoration: none;
cursor: pointer;
}
}

Or you can simply add a min-height to your elements to be sure they have the same height:
.links {
float: left;
display: inline-block;
width: calc(100% / 5);
}
#media all and (max-width:992px) {
.links {
margin-top: 30px;
width: 50%;
min-height:170px; /* adjust this value with want you what*/
}
.title {
font-size: 14px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
padding-bottom: 7px;
display: inline-block;
border-bottom: 2px solid $highlight-blue;
}
ul {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
display: block;
}
li {
margin-top: 5px;
font-size: 13px;
}

Another easy fix for your situation is to clear floating after each last element of each row by using clear:left (but you need to adjust this if you change your logic, for example 3 per row instead of 2 per row):
.links {
float: left;
display: inline-block;
width: calc(100% / 5);
}
#media all and (max-width:992px) {
.links {
margin-top: 30px;
width: 50%;
}
/* Added this code*/
.links:nth-child(2n+1) {
clear:left;
}
/**/
.title {
font-size: 14px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
padding-bottom: 7px;
display: inline-block;
border-bottom: 2px solid $highlight-blue;
}
ul {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
display: block;
}
li {
margin-top: 5px;
font-size: 13px;
}
li a {
color: #000 text-decoration: none;
cursor: pointer;
}

inline-block automatically adds some margin to the elements, I believe around 4px. So 50% plus that 4px will make it more than 100%, pushing down the elements. Try changing to just block instead.

align center a UL with only images [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
How to align a <div> to the middle (horizontally/width) of the page [duplicate]
(27 answers)
Closed 6 years ago.
I have a <ul> with 6 images, no text. I can't seem to make it be in the center of the page. This is my code.
CSS
.logos{
margin:0 auto;
text-align:center;
display:table;
float: left;
}
HTML
<div class="logos" style="margin:0 auto;">
<ul class="logos">
<li class="logos"> <img src="imgs/logo1.gif"> </li>
<li class="logos"> <img src="imgs/logo2.gif"> </li>
<li class="logos"> <img src="imgs/logo3.gif"> </li>
<li class="logos"> <img src="imgs/logo4.gif"> </li>
<li class="logos"> <img src="imgs/logo5.gif"> </li>
<li class="logos"> <img src="imgs/logo6.gif"> </li>
</ul>
</div>

You need to change
.logos{
margin:0 auto;
text-align:center;
display:table;
float: left;
}
to
.logos{
margin:0 auto;
text-align:center;
display:table;
}
and the content will be in the middle of the page
Also you need to delete the div because is useless ,you set the same class to the ul and to div

Do it like this
.logo_wrapper {
width: 100%;
position: relative;
}
.logos {
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
transform: translateX(-50%);
padding: 0;
}
.logo {
display: inline-block;
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: center;
float: left;
}
<div class="logo_wrapper">
<ul class="logos">
<li class="logo">
<img src="imgs/logo1.gif">
</li>
<li class="logo">
<img src="imgs/logo2.gif">
</li>
<li class="logo">
<img src="imgs/logo3.gif">
</li>
<li class="logo">
<img src="imgs/logo4.gif">
</li>
<li class="logo">
<img src="imgs/logo5.gif">
</li>
<li class="logo">
<img src="imgs/logo6.gif">
</li>
</ul>
</div>

First of all remove the class name for div. ul and div have the same class name.
Give float:left to li
.logos{
margin:0 auto;
display:table;
}
.logos li{
float:left;
}
<div>
<ul class="logos">
<li class="logos"> <img src="imgs/logo1.gif"> </li>
<li class="logos"> <img src="imgs/logo2.gif"> </li>
<li class="logos"> <img src="imgs/logo3.gif"> </li>
<li class="logos"> <img src="imgs/logo4.gif"> </li>
<li class="logos"> <img src="imgs/logo5.gif"> </li>
<li class="logos"> <img src="imgs/logo6.gif"> </li>
</ul>
</div>

Column count stacking when there is no content

I have looked around but couldn't find anything describing my problem. I have 5 section elements in a main tag with 3 of them containing text and images.
I'm trying to get each section in a column side by side using column count, however the last two columns with no text and images stack instead of remaining next to each other. I have attached a picture below.
When I add the same images and text it works as it should but I would like to know if I can have empty columns as I do not have content for them yet.
The Code:
main {
-webkit-column-count: 5; /* Chrome, Safari, Opera */
-moz-column-count: 5; /* Firefox */
column-count: 5;
}
li {
list-style: none;
}
.office {
margin-top: 5%;
display:inline-block;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
.office_border {
border: 2px solid #95cccc;
width: 150px;
margin: auto;
}
.office_title {
font: normal 1.9rem DIN;
}
.office_properties {
padding: 0;
}
.office_properties_title {
font: 0.8rem 'Josefin Sans';
}
.office_properties_title_text {
font-weight: normal;
}
.office_properties_item_image {
width: 100%;
}
.office_properties_button {
padding: 5%;
}
.office_properties_link {
font-family: 'Josefin Sans';
text-decoration: none;
color: #c0392b;

You can add display:inline-flex to main you can also find an example I made here, also I added support for column-count for other browsers.
If you want to watch it in the snippet click on "full page".
I hope this help:)
main {
display:inline-flex;
-webkit-column-count: 5; /* Chrome, Safari, Opera */
-moz-column-count: 5; /* Firefox */
column-count: 5;
}

list-style: none;
