css is cutting off text - html

I have a weird issue with a site
The text inside the article is cut off and whatever i try it will not show correctly. It gets cut off in the middle
Obviously i want to use the full size of that box (div)
The part in question is
<div class="text_blue">
<div class="text_blue_header">It takes a virtual village.</div>
<div class="text_blue_main">You. Us. Our partners in the know. We are a forward-
thinking creative agency with big ideas. All we want is for you to look good, be
successful and outsmart your competition. This is our site.</div>
</div>
The site has been build in Joomla with the T3 Framework
Anyone has an idea how to get that fixed?

Remove
height: 80px;
of the rule
.fixel-grid .items.text .article_content .article-intro
in the template.css line 5243

Image Does Not Fill Container

This is my first time posting here and I'm entirely self-taught, so bear with me please if I misspeak or say some dumb things.
I have a Wordpress blog. For quite some time, I have had my blog post format set up so that a "header image" displays across the width of the content space. Across the bottom of that image, I list the title of the post and the date.
To do this, I created what I believe is called a class -- I named it "container" and the only defining trait of this class is that it has "position: relative;" inside it's brackets. (It also has a "shadow" border. I tried taking this out and it had no effect.) This was done in the "additional CSS" section of the wordpress site.
.container {
position: relative;
box-shadow: 1px -1px 7px rgba(0,0,0,0.8);
}
I also made a class called "text-block" that is defined as follows:
.text-block {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0px;
right: 0px;
left: 0px;
background-color: rgba(128,128,128,0.6);
color: white;
padding-top: 10px;
padding-left: 10px;
padding-right: 10px;
padding-bottom: 0px;
}
Each post begins with opening a container. Then, immediately inside of the container is the image, with the width set to 100%. Then, still in the container, I put the text-block in, which is oriented across the bottom. The background color is opaque so that you still see the image behind the text, slightly greyed out.
Here is the code that begins the post of which I've attached a screenshot:
<div class="container"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-8056 size-full" style="width: 100%;" src="https://*mysite*/wp-content/uploads/thx-1138-film-confession.png" alt="Robert Duvall as THX 1138" width="831" height="364">
<div class="text-block">
<h2 style="color: white;"><em>THX 1138</em></h2>
<h6 style="color: white;">Review by *me* | November 6, 2020</h6>
</div>
</div>
The crucial part that I need to ask some advice on is the bottom edge of the container. Until recently, the bottom edges of the image, the text-block, and the container all coincided. Now, instead, a small amount of excess "padding" was added to the bottom of the container. So now, the text-block overlaps the image and some un-filled space beneath it, as you can see in the image. I can't seem to attach a second image of what it should look like, but I think it is clear what I'm trying to achieve.
I don't know where this excess "padding" came from. I didn't change anything -- no CSS was changed. I was just writing individual posts, copy-pasting the format from an old post to a new one to get the correct formatting. I was previewing a single new post when I realized the change, and I thought that I had messed something up on that individual post. But then I started clicking through my site and realized every single post now showed the error.
In the past, some other weird formatting things have happened that stemmed from a plug-in. I've deactivated all plug-ins and the issue remained. I've taken the text-block out entirely and the excess "padding" remains.
Like I said, I'm self-taught. I've really only learned things as I needed to know them. So it's possible I'm missing something simple or committing some grave error without knowing it. But it seems to me that my container lacks the definition that would cause it to be larger than an exact fit to what I put inside of it. Further, the fact that I did not change any of the underlying definitions seems to indicate it's some other kind of issue. But I don't know where it could be stemming from.
I would appreciate any help to figure this out!
UPDATE:
First, Akhilesh, thank you for the reply. Your suggestions did not directly lead to a solution but they at least got me into the spirit of trial and error.
I have found two "solutions" to this problem.
The first is to set "line-height: 0px;" inside of the container in "Additional CSS." This isn't ideal because it means that I can't type regular text in this container anymore. Not very elegant.
The second kind of seems like a fluke. As I showed above, my posts begin with:
<div class="container">**here**<img class="aligncenter wp-image-8056 size-full" style="width: 100%;" src="https://*mysite*/wp-content/uploads/thx-1138-film-confession.png" alt="Robert Duvall as THX 1138" width="831" height="364">
That is a single, unbroken line of code. By starting a new line where I indicate above, it solves the issue. As I stated in my initial description, I have not changed anything. All my posts have been like this since I decided on the format. And as Akhilesh stated, it works in the fiddler (which was a new tool for me, so thanks again).
So, problem solved, but what changed to cause the issue? Something in the way that Wordpress interprets HTML code?
Try adding this to the img element : display:block;
Also, try to find whether there's any padding/margin set for the h2 and h6 elements.
Because I don't see any issues when I tried. Here's the fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/vL80u1a2/
If that didn't helped, try using the Developer Tools in your browser. Just right click on the element and choose Inspect Element. Then when you select an element on the left side, all CSS would appear on the right pane. You can try trouble shooting for the padding using that Developer Tools.

how to make widget sidebar icons?

please help me! i have spend 2 days to understand this condition :(
i found a website: http://www.wpbeginner.com, which have amazing widget icons in the sidebar lead to different pages.
then i tried to make something similar to it. i get their widget code.
<div class="guideicons">
Starting a<br>Blog
WordPress<br>Performance
WordPress<br>Security
WordPress<br>SEO
WordPress<br>Errors
Building an<br>Online Store
</div>
now i want to understand 2 things
firstly as you can see he added this tag at the beginning then
" class="guideicon starting". guideicon +icon name = icon and it's name which appears in the web page what he did to make it occur?
secondly the arrangement 2 columns each one have 3 icons how he did it it html5 through this simple code?
thank you so much
He has the width set to 47% in the class .sidebar a.guideicon. Because the width is set as 47% the width of the container, you cannot fit more than 2 icons across, so it overflows into the next row.
Open the developer tools and play around with the width. If you set the width to something like 10%, it will all fit in the same row.
Well if you inspect this sidebar you can see which class does what. In your case he uses the class guideicon to implement same style accros all the a tags in this sidebar with the rule .sidebar a.guideicon. And after that he uses the second class e.g speed to ad an icon whith the :before pseudo selector to add an icon from their icon pool with this 2 rules: content: "\f00b"; & font-family: Wpbeginner;. This is how Font Awesome was working(I am not sure if it still works like this nowadays).
If you want add you own icons like this you should just need to do something like this:

I hope i helped

Indenting background image placeholder text to remove from view area

Right, so, I've been informed by a usually high-quality, reliable source that best practice when creating linked images that also include text is as follows:
Create some placeholder text inside the anchor element like this:
<a class="logoWithText" href="logoWithText.raw">Mr Happy Forever Foobar</a>
Change the element CSS to indent this text outside the viewing window:
.logoWithText {
background-image: logoWithText;
width = 200px;
height = 100px;
display: inline-block;
text-indent: -9999px;
}
The idea is that without doing this, if CSS is turned off on a user's machine, or they are trying to look at it with a screen reader, they're going to have problems viewing the image. But this way they will only see the text if CSS is switched off, and it will be positioned correctly.
But what if the image fails to load for some reason but they do have CSS switched on? The user is not going to see the placeholder text at all... and I'm also pretty uneasy about the whole put the text all of the way off the screen, as far as it can go as it seems pretty inelegant and I am worried there are likely to be all sort of unforeseen problems with writing code that's totally against the logic of the language in this way.
Can anyone suggest a solution which would account for both broken image links and a lack of CSS support on a user's device, and which would be more immediately intuitive to people viewing the code? If there's really no other way of doing this or you guys think my approach is totally wrong or whatever that's ok, I just want to know if I'm going about things the right way.
Why not
Html
<a href="http://yoururl.com" class="logo--text">
<img src="zoidberg.jpg" alt="This is the text that shows up when your image is broken">
</a>
CSS
.logo--text{ width:200px; height:100px; }

Issues with an image link

Two days ago I spontaneously bought myself a domain. The day before that, I hardly even knew what a domain really was. Since then, I've been trying to teach myself HTML for the very first time. Basically what I'm trying to say is, I'm very new - and will probably be poor in my explanations.
I just succeeded in making an 'image-button', sorta. It's where I make a button-like image and then use it as navigation on my website (just like a regular link). My issue is that the link 'border' itself is bigger than the image, so you can press an inch outside the image itself and it will work. How do I make the invisible link 'border' the same size as the button?
This is my site:
http://www.djeveln.com
On the test page (djeveln.com/test) is where I test things. There's the button I'm talking about, in case you can't understand my explanation very well.
Here's my HTML:
<a class="ButtonLink" href="http://www.djeveln.com" title="Home">
<img src="/images/button.png" class="TestButton"></a>
Here is the CSS I use for the image position and size:
img.TestButton { /* Dette linker til selve størrelsen av knappen (bildet)*/
position: absolute;
width: 100px;
height: 75px;
top: 400px;
right: 250px;
}
Hope you can help me! :P
Your button image contains a large transparent area (with the actual button more or less in the center), and that's what is causing the "borders".
Although there are CSS workarounds for that, I'd recommend you just open the image in Photoshop (or any other image editor), and crop the transparent area away. Make your image the exact size of your button.
One more tip, that can make your life way easier as your learn: use a debugging tool like the Chrome Developer Tools, or Firebug (if you're on Firefox). With those, you can inspect any element on your HTML (right click it and choose "inspect"), check the CSS applied for them (and also modify it on-the-fly for testing), and much more. That's how I spotted the transparent border on your image.
At a quick glance, it looks like you've simply made the image too large. There's a lot of transparent image outside the button that is part of the click target. How are you making the button?
If you made it in Photoshop, for instance, you should crop the image to be tight to the border of the button.
You could do that in CSS, but you'd be making work for yourself -- I'd modify the source image.

A mysterious black vertical bar problem (html,domino xpage)

I have a problem,no matter what browser I use(after tests,I found this problem only exists in IE6, and I guess it may be related to the iframe), a black vertical bar always show up when I open the page at first time,but the problem just occur on some PCs and notebooks,and when I move the browser, the black bar changes or disappears at the meantime.I snaped two screenshots:
http://vilence.host152.ftp18.cn/pics/p1.jpg http://vilence.host152.ftp18.cn/pics/p1.jpg
http://vilence.host152.ftp18.cn/pics/p2.jpg http://vilence.host152.ftp18.cn/pics/p2.jpg
Check for the hardware problem first and then check for the borders and border colors sometimes we fail to manage the div and their alignments specially with complex structure of the position:abosule or relative or fixed, I frames does i have some kind of things. But divs does lots of same type mistakes..
do to give wrapper for every div like
<div id="content-wrapper" class="outer-cls wrapper">
<div id="content" class="inner-cls inner">CONTENT HERE</div>
</div>
this technique make debugging and themeing easy . I was having same type of problem lot of time. ;)
