The strange thing is, I didn't change anything but when I refreshed the page the element was shifted over to the left.
my code is:
<section class='gallery-set'>
<div>
<img class='tilesetsmall' src ='images/sample.jpg'>
</div>
</section>
and my css for the gallery-set class is simply:
.gallery-set {
background-color:#447684;
border-radius:5px;
border: 2px solid black;
width:500px;
height:700px;
margin:auto;
display:inline-block;
}
I honestly have no clue why it is shifted to the left despite me setting the margin to auto, especially since this has worked before.
Some ways:
Put a div and use text-align
CSS:
.align {text-align: center;}
.gallery-set{
background-color:#447684;
border-radius:5px;
border: 2px solid black;
width:500px;
height:700px;
margin:auto;
display:inline-block;
}
HTML:
<div class="align"><section class='gallery-set'><div>
<img class='tilesetsmall' src ='images/sample.jpg'></div></section></div>
Use margin: auto and display: block
CSS:
.gallery-set{
background-color:#447684;
border-radius:5px;
border: 2px solid black;
width:500px;
height:700px;
margin:auto;
display:block;
}
HTML:
<section class='gallery-set'><div>
<img class='tilesetsmall' src ='images/sample.jpg'></div></section>
Remove the display:inline-block; and it will work. Here's a fiddle.
You may have meant to use display:block instead, which would make sense. Using inline-block doesn't make sense if you want to center the <section>. See this page for a good demonstration of how the various display values work.

I am trying to give magins to inline elements (image thumbnails for a photo gallery). But it seems margin-top is ignored for my elements.
Markup is
<div id="row1-left">
<div id="gallerypreview">
<img id="#previewImg" alt="preview for image" src="gallery/autumn1.jpg">
</div>
<div id="gallerythumbs">
<div id="gallerythumbsInner">
<div class="gallerythumb">
<img src="gallery/autumn1.jpg">
</div>
<div class="gallerythumb">
<img src="gallery/autumn2.jpg">
</div>
<div class="gallerythumb">
<img src="gallery/autumn3.jpg">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Style is:
#row1-left{
width: 460px;
height: 310px;
float: right;
margin: 15px 15px 0px;
}
#imggallery{
width:450px;
height:300px;
margin:5px;
}
#gallerypreview{
width:450px;
height:200px;
margin:2px 5px;
border-radius:20px;
background-color:#E7E7E7;
}
div#gallerypreview>img{
margin:1px 25px;
width:400px;
height:198px;
}
div#gallerythumbs{
margin:5px 5px;
width:450px;
height:90px;
background-color:#E7E7E7;
border-radius:5px;
}
#gallerythumbs .gallerythumb{
display:inline;
width:140px;
height:86px;
margin:5px 5px;
}
div.gallerythumb>img{
width:138px;
height:76px;
}
According to some old posts on SO, margin-top is not applied to inline non-replaced elements. My questions is if there is any hack to get this done, for example, for my inline image thumbnails that are to be space from their top parent element?
Inline elements and margins is a hot topic because of its unusual activity. Some people use padding to overcome this problem.
.....
Another way is to use display:table; instead of display:inline;
best way is to....
use css styling like this
div{
position:relative;
top:-2px;
}
this brings the div 2 pixels down.
display: inline; Do not respect top and bottom margins ...
I am playing around with using Divs and CSS instead of tables and I am having some problems with my code/CSS. I am trying to set this up so I have 3 columns next to eachother in a container that is centered to the page which has the text aligned to the bottom so the text is around the same height as the bottom of the image I am using in the center column. I have been unable to achieve this and I have a new found respect for UI guys. My code and CSS are as follows. Any guidance would be helpful :)
body {
}
#Container
{
border:1px solid #dddddd;
padding:40px 94px 40px 94px;
background:#ffffff;
width:55%;
height:auto;
border-radius:0px;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
position:relative;
}
#Address
{
border:1px solid #dddddd;
position:relative;
text-align:left;
width: 33%;
}
#Phone
{
border:1px solid #000000;
position:relative;
text-align:right;
width: 33%;
}
#Logo
{
border:1px solid #4cff00;
position:relative;
float: left;
width: 33%;
}
HTML
<div id="Container">
<div id="Address">123 Testing Street</div>
<div id="Phone">(ccc) 223-3323</div>
<div id="Logo"><img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/0/0c/ITunes_11_Logo.png" /></div>
</div></blockquote>
see the fiddle here , This is not 100% everything you asked for, but it is a big start! You have the appearance of a table while only using div's. I am not going to finish every little detail for you, but this should get you going, it is almost complete.
#Container{
border:1px solid #dddddd;
padding:5px;
background:#bbb;
width:55%;
margin: 0px auto;
position:relative;
height:200px;
}
.cell{
display:inline-block;
width:32%;
height:100%;
border:1px solid #000;
position:relative;
vertical-align:bottom;
line-height:370px;}
<div id="Container">
<div id="Address" class="cell">123 Testing Street</div>
<div id="Phone" class="cell">(ccc) 223-3323</div>
<div id="Logo" class="cell">
<img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/0/0c/ITunes_11_Logo.png" style="height:50px;" />
</div>
</div>
I simplified your css a bit. See if this is what you're looking for.
#Container{
margin:0 auto;
width:500px;
background:gray;
}
#Address, #Phone, #Logo{
float:left;
width:33%;
height:256px;
line-height:512px;
}

Part of the problem you're going to have with aligning to the image is there is white space around the logo, so to get the text to align to the edge of the logo, you're going to have to tweak the numbers a bit, rather than rely on the image height.
You can add a span within a div, and use margin-top to make it in the bottom of the div.
CSS:
#Container > div {
min-height: 52px;
float: left;
text-align: center;
}
#Container > div > span {
display: inline-block;
margin-top: 35px;
}
Take a look: [JSFIDDLE] (http://jsfiddle.net/blck/txXE2/)
I have an image that is 500px wide. It is inside of a div. The width of the div is 250px. How can I align the image centered inside of the div? Should I use top or left or should I have negative margins?
I would use negative margins: #myDiv img { margin: 0 -125px; }. This only works if you know the width of both the DIV and the IMG though.
Can you change (or at least add) something in the html around the image? This is kind of an old trick, and is a little awkward in that it requires you to add an extra <div> around the image, but it works quite nicely if you're ok with that (Note, added some borders to make the effect easily visible while testing):
<div style="width:250px; border: solid 2px red;">
<!-- Place the following div at 50%: -->
<div style="width: 500px; margin-left:50%; border: solid 2px blue;">
<!-- ...then move the image back by half of it's own width: -->
<img style="width:500px; margin-left:-250px; border: solid 3px green;" />
</div>

Demo
Hey now used to display table-cell properties as like this
<div class="parent">
<img src="http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/3c6597370b476903ed475f70b4b3ce31?s=32&d=identicon&r=PG">
</div>
Css
.parent{
border:solid 1px red;
display:table-cell;
width:300px;
height:300px;
vertical-align:middle;
text-align:center;
}
.parent img{
vertical-align:top;
}
Demo
try this one (not sure about ie-6 but work fine in ie-7 and plus)
<style>
.test{ height:250px; width:250px; overflow:hidden; position:relative;}
.test img{ position:absolute; top:50%; left:50%; margin-left:-250px; margin-top:-250px; height:500px; width:500px;}
</style>
<body>
<div class="test"><img src="img.png" alt="img" /></div>
</body>
if is it possible to use that image as background you can try this one
.test{height:250px; width:250px; background:url(img-path.png) no-repeat 50% 50%;}
I have a problem with CSS and HTML I cannot understand why this is happening
HTML:
<body>
<div id="header">
<div id="header_conteiner">
<div id="logo_container">
<img src="images/logo.png" />
</div>
<input type="text" id="txtSearch" class="text_input" />
</div>
</div>
</body>
CSS:
body{
background:#787777;
font-family:"Droid Sans",Helvetica,Arial,Sans-Serif;
font-size:0.81em;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
#header{
height:100px;
background:#000000;
width:100%;
margin:0px;
border:0px solid #6F3;
}
#header_conteiner{
width:1000px;
height:100px;
border:1px solid #9F0;
margin:0 auto;
}
#logo_container{
padding-top:3px;
width:237px;
height:100px;
border:1px solid #03F;
}
#txtSearch{
width:220px;
height:20px; float:right;
}
Here is result:
as you see in image input text is out of header_conteiner can anyone advice me something?
Move the input before the logo container.
Add this to #header_conteiner:
float: left;
clear: both;
So result is this:
#header_conteiner{
width:1000px;
height:100px;
border:1px solid #9F0;
margin:0 auto;
float: left;
clear: both;
}
logo_container is a div, a block element. Meaning it takes up the horizontal space in its container; the next HTML element will be forced below it. As logo_container is set to 100px, the same as header_conteiner, there is no vertical space left for your input box. It is forced below logo_container.
To fix the problem, you could make logo_container an inline element and float it left. Inline elements can sit next to each other, whilst block-line elements need their own horizontal space.
CSS display property: http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_class_display.asp
it looks like logo_container has a padding on top of 3px
I have a div containing a span and I want the span to vertically and horizontally align to the center of my div.
Here's the fiddle : http://jsfiddle.net/RhNc2/1/
I've try margin:auto on the span and the vertical-align on the div, but it's not working
EDIT : My div and my span don't have a fixed height, it depends of the content, i've put it fixed on the fiddle just to show you
Add this to the div CSS:
display:table-cell; text-align:center
working fiddle is here: http://jsfiddle.net/sdoking/DCT85/
CSS:
#myDiv {
border:1px solid black;
height:50px;
width:200px;
vertical-align:middle;
display:table-cell;
text-align:center
}
#mySpan {
width:100%;
border:thin blue solid
}
Borders are for clarity :)
Vertical alignment is a tricky business, and I don't know if there's one tried-and-true way. The most reliable technique available in the last couple of years is to use a CSS table layout. The only downside to this approach is that it may not work on outdated browsers. Still, in my experience this is probably the best overall solution. See my example below:
<style type="text/css">
#container {
display:table;
border-collapse:collapse;
height:200px;
width:100%;
border:1px solid #000;
}
#layout {
display:table-row;
}
#content {
display:table-cell;
text-align:center;
vertical-align:middle;
}
</style>
<div id="container">
<div id="layout">
<div id="content">
Hello world!
</div>
</div>
</div>
Here's a jsFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/aGKfd/2/
There's another technique, but it's not as foolproof as the above technique. It involves two containers, with the outer container's position set to relative and the inner set to absolute. Using absolute positioning on the inner container you can get close, but it requires some tweaking to get it just right:
<style type="text/css">
#vertical{
position:absolute;
top:50%;
left:0;
width:100%;
text-align:center;
}
#container {
position:relative;
height:200px;
border:1px solid #000;
}
</style>
<div id="container">
<div id="vertical">
Hello world!
</div>
</div>
Here's a jsFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/6SWPe/
use line-height = height:
http://jsfiddle.net/RhNc2/8/
You can also just apply these styles to the containing <div>. The line-height solution assumes you only need one line of text to be centered though.
#myDiv{
border:1px solid black;
height:50px;
width:200px;
text-align:center;
line-height:50px;
}
Here it is
#myDiv{
border:1px solid black;
height:50px;
width:200px;
}
#mySpan{
display:block;
text-align:center;
line-height:50px;
}
And the jsFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/Simo990/RhNc2/9/
Edit: since your div and span height depends of the content, my solution will not work, because it needs fixed height and only one row of text. Just look for a solution with position:absolute.
