I have a chosen-select configured for single select with a search box in it. It kind of has a lot of options (in this question limited to 20 options) and it's positioned somewhere down on the page. If you select anything from the select box, it creates a huge gap under the footer.
I think the problem has to do something with these CSS lines:
div.content {
position:absolute;
}
div.filler {
height:35px;
}
I created a jsFiddle to demonstrate the problem. The gap in this fiddle, isn't that huge, but in my app it's way bigger than in the fiddle. I was unable to reproduce the same gap. The scroll bar is maybe 10px big after the selection in my app.
How can I prevent this behaviour?
Okay so the root problem is that you're layout is screwing up when the content overflows but that is another topic. I can give you a quick fix for now.
The chosen dropdown is being created with a ul.chosen-results. What you can do is, limit the height of that ul
Try and use this.
FIDDLE
.chosen-results{
max-height:200px !Important; /*Adjust max-height to waht suits you.*/
}

I'm editing an existing Wordpress theme (created child theme) and I'm having formatting issues. Both on mobile and desktop versions of the website.
My first issue is that the first post loads under the header-logo container sometimes depending on browser size, I notice this happens a lot in mobile devices. The "PROMO" post goes missing.
I've increased both the margin-top & padding-top properties but it doesn't seem to resolve the issue. Do I perhaps have to update the positioning of the container div? If so, what would be the appropriate way? Been reading a few articles and trying a lot of css edits but I feel like I'm just going in circles.

The other problem I'm encountering is that media embedded on posts are floating on top of my "fixed" header instead of the other way around. I've modified the "position" property to absolute but it seems to break the formatting of the whole page? Been at this for a couple of hours and it's driving me nuts. Any new insight is appreciated. I've ran out of ideas to try.

To make the header appear on top of the other comment, there is a z-index property, as said in the comments by #Milan. Basically, what you have to do is...
#header-container {
z-index: 999;
}
/*all the other elements on page except body*/ {
z-index: /*less than 999*/;
}
With this, the header should appear on top of every element on the page.
If your navigation is 110px height, maybe try adding height + about 20px margin offset to the container like so:
.container {
margin-top: 130px;
}
Add clear: both to .container on grid.css line 3
Already a long time ago I started with a new homepage project. I've learnt to build up a homepage on my own, so I'm still in the learning process. Therefore, it might be possible, that I've chosen sometimes not the best way to implement something.
I'd like to have a full width header (and footer) on my webpage. For this reason I created some div tags like this one below:
.header_container_overall-1 {
height: 90px;
width: 1000px;
padding-left: 1000px;
margin-left: -1000px;
padding-right: 1000px;
background-color: #f1f1f1;
}
The problem now is, that a browser (or a mobile device) shows a horizontal scroll bar. I read in a post, that I could use "overflow-x: hidden;". I applied this snippet of code into the "body" class of my css-file. The horizontal scroll bar disappeared, but you can still scroll to the right using the arrow keys on your keyboard.
Unfortunately, I kept programming my website knowing this bug (I thought, that I will fix this later, but I think, this was not the best idea). However, I now came back to this bug and tried to fix it. I found several threads, in which the same problem occured:
kennykee.com/118/div-100-width-without-horizontal-scroll-bar/
stackoverflow.com/questions/18274386/div-overflow-is-hidden-but-still-can-scroll-using-keyboard-right-arrow-key
Then, I tried the following steps:
adding the "overflow-x: hidden;" to several classes (especially the header and footer classes) with the aim to prevent horizontal scrolling. I tried several options and in the end, I got a website, where the header and footer got clipped at the body (for example I got a width of 1000px instead of a full width).
when I tried to use "position: relative;" or "position: fixed;" in different classes, I ended up, that the main page (which is now centered because of margin-left and margin-right set to "auto") was set to the left.
I hope, you understand what I mean. It's hard to describe, even more with my bad English ;-). And as you can see, I sometimes tried stuff without even knowing, what I'm doing. It was more and more "try and error" and I came now to the desicion, that I'm at the end of my html and css knowledge to fix this problem. Maybe you can see the problem right now or maybe you have an idea, what I could try to do.
The website with the described error is available on:

The css file is available too:

If you need any further information, please let me know. And sorry for this long explanation.
Best regards
I did not read the post much further than your CSS. I am sorry but you should not be using hacks like padding 1000 PX and margin 1000px. If you want a full width div, set the HTML and body elements to width: 100%. Then add width 100% to your header/footer div. Make sure to add the meta viewport tag for width = device width. You should do a quick google for some resources regarding device width and responsive design in general.
Hope you can get what you want working!
I have a navigation bar (actually two) - The one in grey(in the image below) and the white one below it. Both have a width of 1000px and have the attribute of margin:0 auto; in their CSS. Have a look at the live one in full screen at http://jsfiddle.net/M2bE2/embedded/result/ and http://jsfiddle.net/M2bE2/ for the output and the code
I hope that you have got a basic idea of idea of my navigation. Ok then, my problem goes like this. When you zoom out, the white-nav(The second one) gets improperly arranged. The image above shows the improper arrangement on zoom out. I cannot figure out the problem which is causing it. In the output, the disarrangement is after quite zooming out. But, in my real project the problem is even more(It gets disarranged after only a little zoom in or out ). Please analyze the code and tell me where am I going wrong. I have made the code in my fiddle clean for you to understand. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
The issue is the login and register buttons. They are both floating right. Because of this they fill the space the bottom nav needs. If you limit their size, clear the float, etc it fixes the issue.
With them removed (easiest solution)
http://jsfiddle.net/M2bE2/2
Without the overflow:auto in the .white-nav's CSS-Attributes it seems to work.
.white-nav {
width:1000px;
margin:0 auto;
overflow:auto; /* Kick it */
}
I am sorry for all of the confusion and wrong post type. I will keep playing with it or try to get all the css in order so I can paste it correctly on here.
Thanks for the info and help that you were able to give.

I am not sure if anyone can help me but for some reason I can not figure out why my nav bar has a 'shadow' without any shadow tag. It is very annoying and I can not figure it out. I am able to change the entire navbar to the same color as the background but then it does not stand out. If you can offer me any advice or things to try that would be great!
Here is a picture of the nav during regular view and then I zoomed in and took another shot.

I have tried border: none and box-shadow: none but nothing seems to remove that little overflow.
UPDATE:
I should have posted this to start with. I do not have the complete html/css as I'm using wordpress so the code is not exactly mine to share. You are welcome to view our site here, http://jrummy16.com/test/
I have just been using the console in Chrome or Firebug in Firefox to style it to that point.
Thanks in advance

This has nothing to do with overflow or box-shadow. What you are seeing at the edge is just the continuation of the background of the parent element.
You can fix this by correcting the positioning of your blue support nav so that it properly aligns to the far edge and doesn't leave the small section showing at the end.
EDIT:
Looking at the actual code, there are two "rogue" pixels that account for your excess right spacing. The first pixel is from the border from css line 394:
#mainmenu.scaled li.menu-item a {
border: 1px solid #E2E2E2;
}
You can either leave this here so the 1px border around elements stays constant, or you can remove it from your last nav using the :last-child pseudo-selector to set border-right:none;
So second rogue pixel comes from a clearing div that you have in the navigation. Deleting this div and applying a CSS clearing fix seems like the best solution. A basic clearing would be setting overflow:hidden; on the container element, but there are more robust css clearing you can use if your situation calls for it.
My guess is it's your padding on your grey box. Set padding:0px; on that get box element and see if that does it.
I am trying to build a web page which should appear same in both wide screen as well as in small screen monitors. I was trying to keep it fluid but in the mean time strange blank space appeared at the right side of the web page.
Strange thing is the blank space is outside the viewport but it makes horizontal screen bar to appear and once scrolled to Right most side, one can see the white space.
Code can be seen here http://jsfiddle.net/FW98q/
MY gut feeling is the problem is at:
#Navigation_Container {
background: #3399cc;
height: 50px;
//width: 960px;
//margin: 0 auto;
}
Help is much appreciated.
Also any tips on how to style the web page so that it remains consistent over screens. Comments on the design are also welcome..:)
I found the issue....Its in the class '.notice' that is in the footer...if you remove
position:absolute;
It works just fine. :) Check it out! Fiddle
I used the element inspector in firefox at saw that it was the only element that was extending beyond the page.
Also, if you need it positioned absolute on the bottom as you had it, make sure also put the left postion as well like this
position: absolute;
bottom: 0px;
left:0px;
Here is an example with the left:0px added
FIDDLE
#page_container, #Header {
width: 960px;
}
Made sure these two element are the same width as the others if you want them to be the same width.
// doesn't work in CSS and you aren't closing one of your divs. I think it's the content one. Why do you have 3 different footer divs? Your mark up is way too complicated you could combine all three of those and get the same effect.
Taking that just out of the navigation container fixes the white space, but you've done it at least one other place.
add to your css
body{margin:0;}
