I'm trying to make a title bar with a nice centered title and a toolbar next to it. The issue I'm having is that as the toolbar grows, the title move further and further off center (and is never really centered to begin with). I've been monkeying with this for a while, tried a few searches, but can't seem to find an answer. Can someone with a bit more css experience throw me a bone please?
HTML
<div>
<span>
Section Title
</span>
<div class="toolbar">
<button>Add</button>
<button>Remove</button>
</div>
CSS
div { background:red;overflow:hidden; text-align: center; }
span a {
background:#222;
color:#fff;
display:inline-block;
margin:10px 10px 0 0;
padding:5px 10px
}
.toolbar {
float: right;
}
Here's a fiddle:

You're going to want to use position: relative on the outer div and position: absolute on the inner div. You can learn more about positioning divs here.
FIDDLE. I also centered the text vertically.
HTML
<div id="background">
<div id="centeroutline">
<div id="centertext">
Section Title
</div>
</div>
<div class="toolbar">
<div id="buttons">
<button>Add</button>
<button>Remove</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS
#background {
position:relative;
background:red;
overflow:hidden;
text-align: center;
height:26px;
width:auto;
}
#buttons{
position:relative;
}
#centeroutline {
color:#fff;
display: table;
width:100%;
}
#centertext{
margin:10px 10px 0 0;
padding:5px 10px;
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
width:100%;
text-align:center;
}
.toolbar {
right:0;
top:0;
position:absolute;
}
You can add position: relative to the containing div. Then absolute position the toolbar in the corner.
div{
position: relative
}
.toolbar{
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 0;
}

I'm trying to place submenu right below its's choosing option like this but when I set left and right attributes on 0
.sidebar_wrapper
{
position:absolute;
background-color:lightgray;
left:0;
right:0;
}
it has whole site's width. When I set them on auto it looks like this.
How do I place my submenu exactly below this div or, what would look even cooler, on it's right?
Code (whole JSFiddle in comments):
HTML:
<div id="sidebar">
<div class="sidebar_option">Strona główna</div>
<div class="sidebar_option">Galeria</div>
<div class="sidebar_option">Reżyserzy
<div class="sidebar_wrapper">
<div class="submenu" style="margin-top:10px">Quentin Tarantino</div>
<div class="submenu">Bracia Coen</div>
<div class="submenu">Wes Anderson</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sidebar_option">Ulubione filmy</div>
<div class="sidebar_option">Seriale</div>
<div class="sidebar_option">Kontakt</div>
</div>
CSS:
.submenu
{
text-align:center;
border-bottom:dotted 2px black;
padding-top:10px;
padding-bottom:10px;
display:none;
font-size:13px;
}
.sidebar_wrapper
{
position:absolute;
background-color:lightgray;
left:auto;
right:auto;
}
.sidebar_option:hover div
{
display:block;
}
.sidebar_option:hover
{
background-color:lightgray;
cursor:pointer;
}
.sidebar_option
{
text-align:center;
margin:10px;
padding:10px;
border-bottom:dotted 2px black;
}
I think the key is you need to set the position of the sidebar_option to relative so that the submenu_wrapper will be position in relation to the sidebar instead of the window. Then some value for left and right for the submenu. It can be anything, but if you want it centered they need to be the same.
.sidebar_option {
position: relative;
}
.sidebar_wrapper {
position: absolute;
background-color:lightgray;
left: 5%;
right: 5%;
z-index: 2;
}
Here's the updated jfiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/8d3p50hy/13/
I'm trying to work out the best way using CSS to keep Block 2 centred in the remaining space that exists to the right of Block 1. This space could increase or decrease with the size of the browser window / orientation of device. Block1's position does not move.
I was hoping to be able to use a combination of float, margin-left:auto and margin-right:auto as way of keep Block2 centred, however, sadly my CSS is still in it's infancy.
Any guidance / help would be greatly appreciated.
#block1 {
position:relative;
top:10px;
left:0px;
width:50px;
height:100px;
background-color:#009;
}
#block2 {
position:relative;
width:100px;
height:100px;
top:10px;
float:right;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
background-color:#999;
}
<div id="block1"></div>
<div id="block2"></div>
http://jsfiddle.net/d4agp0h6/
Thanks in advance
An easier way to do this would be to use nested divs rather than trying to position two within the same block element.
Here's the updated jsFiddle
So, you create a wrapper (#block1) which is the size of the entire page so you can move stuff around inside. Position each subsequent piece of content within this area so you can set margins, position, etc.
HTML
<div id="block1">
<div id="block2">
<div id="content">
<p>This is some text</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Then, with your CSS, set the positions relative to one another so you can use margins and percentage spacing to keep things fluid.
CSS
#block1 {
position:relative;
top:10px;
left:0px;
width:200px;
height:400px;
background:#555;
}
#block2 {
position:relative;
width:75%;
height:100%;
float:right;
margin:0 auto;
background-color:#999;
}
#content {
margin:0 auto;
border:1px solid black;
position:relative;
top:45%;
}
#content p {
text-align:center;
}
It appears you want a fixed side bar and a fluid content area.
DEMO: http://jsfiddle.net/fem4uf6c/1/
CSS:
body, html {padding:0;margin:0;}
#side {
width: 50px;
background-color: red;
box-sizing: border-box;
float: left;
height: 500px;
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
}
.content {
position: relative;
box-sizing: border-box;
width: 100%;
padding: 20px 20px 20px 70px;
text-align: center;
}
#box2 {
width: 50%;
height: 300px;
background: purple;
margin: 0 auto;
}
HTML:
<div id="side"></div>
<div class="content">
<p>This is the content box. Text inside here centers. Block items need margin: 0 auto; inline and inline-blocks will auto center.</p>
<div id="box2"></div>
</div>
Here is my take on a solution. I used Brian Bennett's fiddle as a base, since I agreed with how he laid out the markup and was going to do something similar myself.
Link to JSFiddle
Where I differed is to add a container section:
<section id='container'>
<div id="block1"></div>
<div id="block2">
<div id="content">
<p>This is some text</p>
</div>
</div>
</section>
I also used percentages to determine widths instead of px values - with the exception of #container. Changing the width of the container should demonstrate that the relevant content is always centered.
Option 1
Here is one of the correct way of putting Block side by side... where one Block is on the Top Left... and the other Block is Top Center
Working Demo 1 : http://jsfiddle.net/wjtnddy5/
HTML
<div id="mainBlock">
<div id="block1">
<div class="box"></div>
</div>
<div id="block2">
<div class="box"></div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
html, body {
height:100%;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
#mainBlock {
height:98%;
width:98.9%;
border:5px solid #000;
}
#block1 {
width:10%;
height:100px;
display:inline-block;
border:1px solid #ff0000;
overflow:hidden;
}
#block2 {
width:89.2%;
height:100px;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
border:1px solid #ff0000;
display:inline-block;
}
.box {
margin:0 auto;
background-color:#009;
width:100px;
height:100px;
}
Its using the "display:inline-block;" to put Blocks side by side which is better than using Float technique... let me know incase you need only Float!
Option 2
Here is the Other technique using "float: left" incase you need this only...
For this I have just replaced "display:inline-block" with "float: left" for both Blocks.... rest is same..

Hope this will help!!!

| logo_icon page_Tittle |
------------------------------------------------------------
I want to make a header of my phonegap app like this one. On the left of the header there should be a logo(img) and on center there should be page tittle(text). Now I have already try this one.
<div data-role="header" >
<div class="logo" > <img src="img/logo.png" /> </div>
<h1 id="tittle">Main Page</h1>
Exit
</div>
and the css its css is:
.logo {
vertical-align: left;
}
.tittle{
text-align: center;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
Kindly help me how it will be work? I am new in css.
<div data-role="header" class="header" >
<div class="logo" > <img src="img/logo.png" /> </div>
<h1 id="tittle">Main Page</h1>
Exit
</div>
the css:
.header{display:inline-block;
padding:5px 15px;
text-align:center;
width:100%;
}
.logo{float:left;}
.header h1 {font-size:15px;
width:80%;
text-align:center;}
basically, by adding the text align property of the header div as center, and setting the float property of the logo element to left, should solve your problem
check out the js fiddle link :)
http://jsfiddle.net/Q2Hkj/
This should work for you:
.logo {
float:left;
}
.tittle{
text-align: center;
width:75%; margin:0 auto;
vertical-align: middle;
}
I recommend you to do that with max number of % size and position in your css and use a JavaScript function for center the elements depending of the window size.
Anyway I created a fiddle example for you, take a look and some ideas.
HTML:
<div id="top_bar">
<img id="logo_top_bar" src="../img/logo_top_bar.png">
<section id="title">App title</section>
</div>
CSS:
html,body{
position: relative;
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
width: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
height: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
overflow:hidden;
}
#top_bar{
position:relative;
float:left;
height: 60px;
width:100%;
left:0;
top:0;
overflow:hidden;
background-color:rgb(46, 42, 42);
}
#logo_top_bar{
position:absolute;
height:30px;
width:70px;
left:4%;
top:15px;
}
#title{
position:absolute;
left:45%;
top:16px;
font-size: 1.5em;
color:white;
}
I've tried numerous of things to fix this. I cannot seem to get the nested div inside the parent div without having to use margin. I'm trying to get it in the regular way which is position:relative on parent and position:absolute on nested. It's not working though, anybody know why?
HTML
<div class="header">
<div class="logo">
<img src="/images/logo.png" width="96" height="82">
</div>
<div id="nav">
Portfolio
About
Contact
</div>
<div id="headerPro">
</div>
</div>
CSS
.header {
position:relative;
background-color: #2C2E31;
border-bottom: #242426 2px solid;
height: 182px;
}
.logo {
text-align: center;
padding-top: 35px;
}
#nav {
position:absolute;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
text-align:center;
text-decoration:none;
font-size:20px;
font-family:raleway-regular;
}
#nav a {
border-bottom:#FFFFFF 2px solid;
color:#FFFFFF;
text-decoration:none;
margin-left: 8px;
margin-right:8px;
}
#headerPro {
position:absolute;
float:right;
width:100px;
height:100px;
background-color:red;
}
It's hard to tell what exactly you want it to look like, but maybe I got you right:
I revised your HTML code to use ul for the nav which is best practice:
<div class="header">
<div class="logo">
<img src="/images/logo.png" alt="logo"/>
</div>
<ul id="nav">
<li>Portfolio</li>
<li>About</li>
<li>Contact</li>
</ul>
<div id="headerPro">
</div>
</div>
With that your css code could look like that:
.logo > img {
display: inline-block;
width: 96px;
height: 82px;
}
#nav {
position:absolute;
list-style-type: none;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
text-align:center;
text-decoration:none;
font-size:20px;
font-family:raleway-regular;
}
#nav > li {
display: inline;
}
#headerPro {
position:absolute;
top: 35px; /* assuming you want this to line up with the logo */
right: 0;
width:100px;
height:100px;
background-color:red;
}
Here is a demo.
See this fiddle
Example
I have made two changes added a float:left to the logo css:
.logo {
float:left;
}
and removed the position:absolute from the header pro css
Your div is flowing outside the header block because of the logo div, if you make that float left (as I have done in the fiddle) the Red Div will move up.
It would help if you could explain exactly where you want the #HeaderPro div..
Apparently the browser positions your div#headerPro just below the previous(sibling) div. If you want it to be part of the parent div, add top:2% to position the red div in the top right corner of the black div.
#headerPro {
position:absolute;
float:right;
width:100px;
height:100px;
background-color:red;
top: 1%;
}
I have two divs:
<div id="left_menu" > menu </div>
<div id="content" > centered </div>
Currently they have a css of
#content {
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
display:table;
}
So this would create a div with menu and a line below that a centered div with centered. What I want is a centered div#content with div#left_menu to the left of it. I DON'T want to center BOTH the divs together, only the div#content. This should be done with only divs and css and should work on all browsers.
So this could possibly look like
---> menu centered <--------
Just to clarify things:
I'm not centering/positioning the text, it's the divs that matter (text is there for marking the position in the example). I want both divs on the same line (like a span, but i want to use divs), the centered div should be centered in the middle of the page. The menu div should be right next to it, touching the left border of the centered div.
This solution should work for every screen size (e.g. if the screen is very large the two side gaps to the left and right of the menu and content should be very large, e.g. if the screen is too small for both the menu and content, there should be no gaps and the result should look like (the >< represent the cutoff) Notice how if the screen is too small, the menu div is fully displayed first with the centered div cutoff (as if it were just two divs floated left).
>menu cent<
Due to the number of incorrect answers being submitted:
1) Please verify your answers by creating your own .html file with your code
2) Refresh once on full screen and refresh once with browser resized to a smaller size such that the browser cannot hold both divs (e.g. the centered div is semi-cutoff)
3) Use inspect element tool(chrome) or equivalent tools to be sure that the two divs are touching, the centered div is indeed centered, etc
To further clarify what i want i've included a better example(NOT a solution though):
This does not work for every screen size:

Updated per requests in comments.
I really like using the vertical-align property when vertically-aligning elements.
HTML:
<div id="container">
<span id="alignment"></span><div id="wrapper">
<div id="sidebar">
</div><div id="main">
</div>
</div>
</div>
Notice how the closing and the succeeding are touching. For inline and inline-block elements to touch, there cannot be space between them in the markup.
CSS:
html, body {
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: center; }
#container { white-space: nowrap; }
#wrapper {
white-space: nowrap;
text-align: left;
margin: 0 75px 0 0;
vertical-align: middle;
display: inline-block; }
#alignment {
height: 100%;
vertical-align: middle;
display: inline-block; }
#sidebar {
background: red;
width: 75px;
height: 200px;
vertical-align: middle;
display: inline-block; }
#main {
background: blue;
width: 300px;
height: 400px;
vertical-align: middle;
display: inline-block; }
Preview: http://jsfiddle.net/Wexcode/2Xrcm/8/
Your do it with simple overflow:hidden like this:
#left_menu{
float:left;
width:200px;
height:100px;
background:green;
}
#content {
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
display:table;
height:100px;
background:red;
overflow:hidden;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/hnXqg/
The solution for this is you have to create a wrapper class or id for a div like..
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="left_menu" > menu </div>
<div id="right">
<div id="content" > centered </div>
</div>
</div>
then the css is..
#wrapper{
margin:0px auto;
display:table;
width:90%;
}
#menu{
float:left;
width:300px;
margin:5px;
}
#right{
float:right;
display:block;
}
#content{
displat:table;
margin:0px auto;
}
I think this css should do the job, if I understood your question:
#left_menu{background:red;
width:100px;
height:100px;
float:left;
margin: auto 0;
z-index:2}
#content {
background:white;
width:100px;
height:100px;
margin: auto 0;
float:left;
position:absolute;
left:20%;
z-index:200;
padding-left:4%
}
And Html is below:
<div id="left_menu" >RED DIV</div>
<div id="content" >WHITE DIV</div>
I think this is what you are looking for. Adjust the sizes to suit your needs, obviously.
<style type="text/css">
.container {
margin: auto;
width: 500px;
}
.menu {
margin: 10px;
width: 180px;
}
.content {
margin: 10px;
width: 280px;
text-align: center;
}
.floatLeft {
float: left;
}
.clear {
clear: both;
}
</style>
<div class="container">
<div class="menu floatLeft">
Menu
</div>
<div class="content floatLeft">
Content
</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
Edited:
<style type="text/css">
.container {
margin: auto;
width: 500px;;
background: red;
}
.menu {
width: 50px;
margin-left: 50px;
background: green;
}
.content {
width: 300px;
margin: auto;
background: blue;
}
.floatLeft {
float: left;
}
.clear {
clear: both;
}
</style>
<div class="container">
<div class="menu floatLeft">
Menu
</div>
<div class="content">
Content
</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
<div align="center">
<span id="left_menu"> menu </span>
<span id="content"> centered </span>
</div>
html { text-align: center; }
div#content { display: inline; margin: 0 auto; text-align: left;width: 980px; }
something like this should work.
