I don't even know if what I am asking is possible, but it's worth a shot. Basically I have a one page scrolling website controlled by jQuery, but it's a very very simple code, no plugin or external doc. That works great.
Every "page" if you will is divided into different divs to separately control function of pictures, tables, fonts, etc. per each page. Like this:
//home page
<div id="home">
content here
</div>
//about page
<div id="about">
content here
</div>
and so on and so forth... my question is, can i do something like this? I've tried but maybe I don't have the "decimal" in the right spot...
//home page
<div id="home resize">
<div id="home">
content here
</div>
</div>
//about page
<div id="about resize">
<div id="about">
content here
</div>
</div>
and then CSS be
home resize {
position: relative;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
Two things I see right away. First, your CSS rule should be .home.resize instead of home resize. Second, height, when using percentages, requires that the height be set on the html tag to make a difference. So you will need rules such as this:
html {
min-height: 100%;
}
.home.resize {
height: 100%;
}
Otherwise, height will never take up the entire browser window height.
This all being said, I would guess that your best solution would involve JS or jQuery in some way. I know there are several single page scrolling plugins that do this job quite well.
First things first. HTML id's cannot contain spaces. You should define a class name resize. That being said. You can achieve this by using this.
Here is a fiddle
div id="home" class="resize">
content here
</div>
<div id="about" class="resize">
content here
</div>
.resize{
display:block;
height:100vh;
margin:0;
}
#home{
background-color:red;
}
#about{
background-color:blue;
}
vh is viewport height. It will set the height of your div same as viewport. 1vh is equivalent to 1/100th of viewport height

I am using bootstrap 3 to design a HTML page and right now I am facing a problem. I want my div tag container to take 100% height of the browser window but using CSS only (no javascript).
I went through lots of questions in stack overflow itself but couldn't find a solution that could help me. I don't want to use vh, as when you resize your window it wont work properly or wont show the container properly and I have 5 div tag containers and want every container to be the same size of the browser window.
p.s I don't think html or css is required as it can be answered without the code.
Is this what you want?
html, body {
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
}
#thediv{
min-height:100%;
min-width:100%;
background-color:red;
display:flex;
align-items:stretch;
position:relative;
}
.interiordiv{
background-color:blue;
width:50px;
margin:15px auto 15px auto;
}
<div id="thediv">
<div class="interiordiv">A</div>
<div class="interiordiv">V</div>
<div class="interiordiv">C</div>
<div class="interiordiv">D</div>
<div class="interiordiv">E</div>
</div>
If not please try to make it clearer, if you don't want to post code that's ok but post a mockup image or something.
All that is required is to set the 'min-height' CSS attribute of the Div you wish to re-size:
<div style="min-height: 100%"></div>
Ensure your html & body tags have a height of 100% also.
Here you go.. as you said you are using bootstrap, you might override the row class and achieve this easily.
.row{
height:100%;
}
<div class="row bg-success"></div>
<div class="row bg-danger"></div>
<div class="row bg-warning"></div>
<div class="row bg-info"></div>
<div class="row bg-primary"></div>
Here are the screen sizes I tested it with.
THESE TWO WERE FULL SCREEN DESKTOPS
THESE WERE NON-FULL SCREEN BROWSER
THESE WERE IPHONE RESOLUTION IN PORTRAIT MODE
THESE WERE IPHONE RESOLUTION IN LANDSCAPE MODE
I've been trying all sorts of solutions offered here and other places, and none of them seem to work. I'd like to have an image take up the full width of the browser window, no matter the size (height scaled proportionally). But I need to place this image within a smaller container <div>, as it's part of dynamic content (the body of a blog post). I'm using bootstrap, but I don't think this problem is unique to the framework. Code:
<div class="container">
<div id="content" class="col-md-8">
{dynamic content in here}
<!-- still part of blog post -->
<div class="large"><img src...></div>
{more content}
</div>
</div>
CSS:
div.content { width: 70%; }
div.large img { width: 100%; }
If I put <img src="..." class="large"> inside the container div, it will, of course, be the size of that <div>. If I manually set the width of the image to, say, 1900px, it extends far out to the right of the main content, and I have to experiment to find an appropriate negative margin-left to center the image (margin: 0 auto doesn't center it). And of course that only works on a pixel-specific size. As soon as the window size changes, that code breaks.
If I set position: absolute;, the image appears on top of any following content, which isn't the behavior I want. I also tried this javascript using jQuery:
<script>
$("div.large img").css("width", $(window).width);
</script>
As well as a version without jQuery that iterates over the results of document.getElementsByClassName().
None of these approaches seem to give the results I want. Opening and closing the container would be a Bad Idea(tm), as this would break the isolation between the static layout and dynamic content, and so break the whole site if the static part of the layout changes and the blog posts aren't all manually updated.
It works for me with position absolute
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
body{
margin: 0;
}
div#small{
width: 200px;
background-color: green;
}
div#fullscreen{
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
background-color: red;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="small">
i am a small div inside your browser window
<div id="fullscreen">
i got the same width as your browser window
</div>
</div>
<div id="small">
i am a small div inside your browser window
</div>
</body>
</html>
I think you'll need to do something like this...
<div class="container">
<div id="content">
<div class="col-md-8 etc..."></div>
{ content in here}
</div>
<!-- still part of blog post -->
<div class="large"><img src...></div>
<div class="col-md-8 etc..."></div>
{more content in here}
</div>
</div>
</div>
Set the .container to 100%, the content to 70% and the .large to 100% too
If you zoom out my website, the structure of the header looks bad. I don't know what to do about this. This is the link of my website. This is the CSS and HTML structure. Hope you can help me, I really need help :(
If you want you header to stay in the centre with your content, you will need t do that, it doesn't just happen.
You should start by agreeing on a width you want you content in (you have width: 1100pxon your container div, so I'll go with that for you.)
In you css for .containerchange width: 1100px; to max-width: 1100px.
Then in the css for #header remove the position: absolute;. Add in max-width: 1100px; margin: 0 auto;
You will need to modify the structure of your HTML and place the header div inside the container div. Currently, that part of your HTML is like this:
<div id="header"></div>
<div id="container">
<div id="content"></div>
<div id="navigationposition"></div>
<div id="position"></div>
</div>
but it should be like this instead:
<div id="container">
<div id="header"></div>
<div id="content"></div>
<div id="navigationposition"></div>
<div id="position"></div>
</div>
After modifying your HTML, you can add the following CSS to your stylesheet:
#header {
margin-left: -100px;
}
your header is positioned absolute
so when you zoom in and out it will stay absolute positioned. In the top left corner when the page is zoomed out
Also you do not have a wrapper for your code.... you may want to wrap everything in a container,
This will also take care of the image size thats over lapping your other content.
I do not know id you wanted the header to overlap like that but if it was intended just use margin-left
a wrapper will also contain your other divs sizes to stay within that wrapper.
Not going to work with zooming in and out
#header {
position:absolute;
z-index:101
}
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="header">
</div>
<div id="underheader">
</div>
</div>
</body>
css
#wrapper{
width:800px;
} or whatever width you want
#header{
maegin-left:50px;
} or whatever px you desire
I don't know much about html or css but I have done this much;
I want to stack divs so it looks like this (please excuse the bad drawing) ;
I have googled how to and tried different thing but the likes/dislikes boxes always end up not moving or move to the very left/very right.
<div style="float:left;width:300px;height:350px;text-align:center;">
<div style="float:left;width:500px;height:200px;text-align:center;">
<div id="wrapper">
<div style="align=center;">
<div id="first">1</div>
<div id="second">2</div>
These are th three divs I have.
First one has links [the add/message etc]
Second one has "thelastgecko" and profile text.
And I am trying to use the last box for likes/dislikes but whatever im doing it isn't working.
You usually use one "huge" div, set it below 1024 pixels wide so old screens can view it and then you usually center it in the middle of the screen. Then inside of that big div you put the "add me - message me - gallery" with a "float:left" or "position:absolute" I prefer the latter. then you make another div containing the "The last gecko" + dislikes & likes and center that div, then after that I would make another div and either do a "float:right" or a "position:absolute; left:'huge width minus this ones width".
I did write everything in text and readable since giving the code away doesn't teach as well.
But in case you still didn't get it, here's my idea:
<html>
<head>
<style>
body{margin:0px;padding:0px;width:100%;height:100%;}
#container{width:900px;margin:auto;margin-top:200px;}
#add_me,#dislike_text{position:absolute;width:200px;background-color:#ace;}
#last_gecko,#holder{margin:auto;width:500px;background-color:#eca;}
#likes,#dislikes{float:left;width:250px;display:block;background-color:#cae;}
#dislikes{background-color:#cea;}
#dislike_text{margin-left:700px;background-color:#eac;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="container">
<div id="add_me">add me<br>message me<br>wuts going on</div>
<div id="dislike_text">dislike text</div>
<div id="last_gecko">
Last Gecko
<div id="holder">
<div id="dislikes">dislikes</div>
<div id="likes">likes</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Made it workable, it will at least show you in what direction to move, It might not be the best way but it is my way.
You could do something like this: http://jsfiddle.net/jAKgd/
CSS
#wrapper {
width: 800px;
}
#leftColumn {
float: left;
height: 800px;
width: 200px;
margin-right: 5px;
}
#leftColumn a {
display: block;
}
#rightColumn {
width: 100%;
}
#contentDislike,
#contentLike {
display: inline-block;
width: 250px;
}
Obviously the height/widths can be changed to meet your needs. I was just doing a quick example.
HTML
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="leftColumn"> Link
Link
Link
Link
Link
</div>
<div id="rightColumn">
<div id="contentTop">
<img src="/images/image_name.jpg" alt="image text here" />
<p>THIS IS WHERE YOUR PROFILE TEXT WOULD SHOW. IT CAN EXPAND HEIGHT AS NEEDED.</p>
</div>
<div>
<div id="contentDislike">DISLIKE CONTENT HERE</div>
<div id="contentLike">LIKE CONTENT HERE</div>
</div>
<div>YOUR LOWER TWO COLUMNS WILL GO IN THIS DIV</div>
</div>
</div>
It's a bad way of design to use floats to place divs at some place.
It's a much better way to use, for example, a flex layout.
But this is not supported by all browsers (But nearly. If you can, take this option).
Another solution is this one:
Use the width option. You set the width of any div of your html to a fixed number, in percent, of course. Watch this example
But if you do this, you will have to pay attention for very large and very little screens, I think you would have to write alternative css style sheets which are working with (max-width) and (min-width).
And there is another solution: the gridlayout. It is part of the standards since 2013 (I think) but it's not well supported yet. But maybe in future.
Hope I could help
I'm helpless, tried my best understanding CSS but it's just not for me.
I would like to make a really simple MasterPage:
at the top a div of full width and height 40px (1)
at the bottom also a div of full width and height 40px (2)
in the middle:
on the left: a div of width 200 px (3)
on the right side of the left div: a div with contentPlaceHolder (4)
What I would like to get is: if i make some site that uses my master page and place a panel in the contentPlaceHolder that has width 800px, I would like my site to adjust to it - top, middle and bottom divs to have their width of 1000px (200 + 800). I also wouldn't like (and I have a huge problem with that) the (4) to move down if I resize (shrink) the browser window - I would like all the divs to be blocked.
This is my master page html:
<div>
<div class="header">
</div>
<div>
<div class="links">
</div>
<div class="content">
</div>
</div>
<div class="footer">
</div>
</div>
What kind of CSS do I have to write to make this finally work?
Not sure if you have checked into this or not, but we use the YUI-Grids CSS Framework for our layouts. It keeps us from having to spend a lot of time on CSS, which we are not great at being developers.
There is even a grid builder which will let you graphically layout a page, and then copy and paste the required HTML to make it happen :)
To prevent floated divs from being "squeezed" out of the alignment you want, you usually use either width or min-width.
For example, in this code the div containing the links and content will never be smaller than 1000 pixels. If the screen is smaller than 1000 pixels, a scrollbar is displayed.
<div style="min-width: 1000px">
<div class="links"></div>
<div class="content"></div>
</div>
You could also use width instead of min-width:
<div style="width: 1000px">
<div class="links"></div>
<div class="content"></div>
</div>
The difference between the two is simple: if you specify min-width, the div CAN grow to be larger if it needs to. If you specify width, the div will be exactly the size you specified.
Be aware that min-width is not supported by IE6.
Here's a quick stab at specific CSS/Markup for this problem.
Markup:
<!-- Header, etc. -->
<div class="contentView">
<div class="links">
</div>
<div class="content">
</div>
</div>
<!-- Footer, etc. -->
CSS:
.contentView {
/* Causes absolutely positioned children to be positioned relative to this object */
position: relative;
}
.links {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 200px;
}
.content {
padding-left: 200px;
}
You might want your footer to be "sticky." Check here for information on that: http://ryanfait.com/resources/footer-stick-to-bottom-of-page/
How appropriate this is depends on precisely what the design calls for. This makes the links section more of a floating box on the left than a column for example.
This ends up looking like this (.content is green, .links is red):
