I built four div boxes with content in them. First of all, there was blindtext into it and there were no problems. But now when I want to put my content into the boxes and I put some text into the first box, for example, the other three are going down by the same amount.
The second thing is, is there some way how I can make the text more compact? Like the other three boxes where the blind text is. Because in the first one there is much room between couple words. I heard something about css break? But I don't know if it's the right one.
.skillcontainer {
max-width: 23%;
min-width: 200px;
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
margin-left:1.4em;
}
Here you can see what I mean. And also with the text for example if you make the window bigger you see that under 22% there is empty space.
No need to float them...you just have to add
.wrapper {vertical-align:top; }
to your code...as the internal items are inline-block.
JS FIDDLE
Float 'em!
.skillcontainer {
max-width: 23%;
min-width: 200px;
display: block;
position: relative;
margin-left: 1.4em;
float: left;
}

I have looked around alot but i cant figure out what is going on here.
So i have a table with 2 td's on the first row.
left td has a image and should be h:200px and w:200px.
right td has some text and should be h:200px and w:430px.
So the total should be w:630px and h:200px but somehow if i inspect the tr its h:200px and w:630.4px so 0.4 too many which i cant figure out where its from.
i have the margin and padding set to 0px.
#logo {
height: 200px;
width: 200px;
display: inline-block;
}
#headerText {
height: 200px;
width: 430px;
background-color: #660066;
display: inline-block;
}

You need to add both your HTML and CSS codes so that we can see the result and inspect it. But from your explanation, I would say there are two things to consider:
If you want to control the size of a cell, you need to wrap the content in a div or other block elements.
Try adding overflow: hidden; and white-space: nowrap;to your table cell. Use either one that works for you.
I'm creating a basic generic web page with a photo gallery as practice here, but for some reason I cannot get the gallery div to float next to the sidebar div so that there isn't a big empty space above it. Floating them just destroys everything. When I inspect element it shows that there's a margin taking up all of the space to the right of the sidebar/above to the gallery, but I've looked through my css over and over and can't find where that margin could be coming from. I'm not 100% sure that's what is causing the issue though.
If anyone knows how I can make this position correctly it would be much appreciated. I feel like I've tried everything and I'm just not getting it.
Here is the link to the code on jsfiddle:
https://jsfiddle.net/laurynm/h6mu6hsb/
.gallery {
width: 80%;
position: relative;
}
#sidebar {
position: relative;
width: 230px;
}
Try this https://jsfiddle.net/h6mu6hsb/4/
#sidebar {
float: left;
position: relative;
width: 230px;
}
I took a stab in the dark, and made a jsfiddle demo for you to try out. In essence, I gathered different sections in wrappers, converted them to inline-block, and hope it looks kinda like what you wanted.
How about something like this so you dont have horizontal scrolling problems:
http://jsfiddle.net/espriella/fdmdwpp5/
Using display as table-cell
.sidebar{
min-width: 200px;
display: table-cell;
}
.gallery{
display: table-cell;
width: 100%;
}
I am trying to make a div with text and a div with a button fit side by side. It works fine until you make the screen really narrow. Is there a way to force them to be on the same line and for the first div to shrink to accommodate the min-width of the second?
http://jsfiddle.net/C3877/9/
To see what I mean, resize the window, reducing the width, until the div with the button is forced onto the second line. That is what I'd like to prevent.
Note: I only care if a suggested fix works properly in Chrome.
Instead of floats, you could use display: inline-block. This will keep things all on one line, and respect the min-width as well.
Inline-block fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/C3877/8/
In addition, since you only care about Chrome, you could look into flexible boxes
A (quick) flex fiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/C3877/11/
You can use negative margin-left for the floated right element. Note that this solution keeps using float for both the left and right divs, without using float, you have dozens of solutions (as some of other answers pointed out).
#right_div {
...
margin-left:-100%;
}
Note that all the next content should be wrapped in a block element and use clear:both. I also added a sample of such an element with background:green in this DEMO.
Appending this does the trick I suppose:
#media (max-width:515px) {
#left_div { width: 100%; margin-right: -100px }
}
UPDATED
You could use margin and absolute positioning:
CSS
#parent_div {
width: 100%;
height: 10%;
position: relative;
min-width: 40px;
}
#left_div {
width: 80%;
min-width: 100px;
height: 80%;
float: left;
background-color: #000;
color: #FFF;
}
#right_div {
width: 15%;
min-width: 100px;
float: right;
background-color: blue;
position:absolute;
right: 0px;
}
input[type=button] {
font-size: 2rem;
}

You will have to play with some of the css to get it just right when you move it on your website. But this is a sure quick fix.
Hi
On our website I have a page where there are Buy Now buttons
https://www.nutricentre.com/m-300-herbs-hands-healing.aspx
The styling that controls this is
.item .price {
color:#8c9c54;
font-size:14px;
font-weight: bold;
/*
position: absolute;
bottom: 48px;
left: 0px;
width: 150px;
*/
text-align: center;
margin-bottom: 45px;
}
.item a.blue_btn {
position: absolute;
bottom: 10px;
left: 15px;
cursor: pointer;
}
Any idea how I can get this aligned in a straight line regardless of the text above?
You don't have to change the css of the button, but from the whole item:
just add:
.item{
height: 380px;
}
Of course, you have to care about the maximum item-height: your value must not be less, or the price won't be visible anymore.
In this case, min-height would be the better alternative.
I would recommend setting a min-height: 370px; for the easiest solution.
You do not want to set a static height for this because if you have an item with a longer description it will not automatically add space but just cram everything in.
Add a static height to .item
height:375px;
The height:auto; declaration tells .item to expand as big as it needs to be to fit everything in, so the tops of the divs line up, but since they are different heights, the bottoms are staggered.
As some of my co-responders have noted, min-height is also an acceptable option, until you have an item with enough text that item expands past the min-height value, at which point they will begin to expand and stagger again.
This should point you in the right direction: http://jsfiddle.net/v9grm/
Create a grid and with the help of display: table make the columns the same height. Then place the button at the bottom of the column with position: absolute.
So I am designing a website right now (pretty nooby at HTML and CSS) but I made a design on Photoshop beforehand so that I could go right through the coding and make the website how I wanted. Well I have an issue. I have two DIV elements inside of a bigger container DIV that won't line up side-by-side, despite using inline-block. Here is the css code:
.contentContainer {
display: block;
width: 700px;
height: 250px;
margin: 20px auto;
}
.topContainer {
height: 230px;
padding: 10px;
background-color: white;
}
.topThumbnail {
display: inline-block;
width: 370px;
height: 230px;
}
.topThumbnail img {
width: 370px;
height: 230px;
}
.topInfo {
display: inline-block;
margin-left: 10px;
width: 300px;
height: 230px;
}
.topInfo p {
width: 300px;
height: 230px;
background-color: pink;
}
The contentContainer is the highest DIV holding my topContent and topThumbnail so I thought I'd throw it into the provided code.
And the HTML code:
<div class="topContainer">
<div class="topThumbnail">
<img src="YT.png" />
</div>
<div class="topInfo">
<p>Testing the information area of the top container or something along those lines</p>
</div>
</div>
Can't post pictures to explain the issue.. need 10 reputation.. will make it hard to describe.
In the design the two containers for the Thumbnail and the Info are supposed to be side-by-side and aligned at the top. The thumbnail is supposed to be on the left of the topContainer and the Info is supposed to be to the right of the thumbnail with a margin of 10. For some reason the info is not going to the right-side of the thumbnail but rather going under it. I have ALREADY set the margin to 0 to fix the default margin issues.
display: inline-block is working correctly in your example. What you need to add is vertical-align: top to your .topInfo div, and get rid of the default margin on your .topInfo p tag. Also, you need to make sure that there is enough room for the .topInfo div to sit to the side of the .topThumbnail div, otherwise it will wrap to the next line.
Like this:
http://jsfiddle.net/hsdLT/
A cleaner solution: I would look at ditching the display:inline-block CSS proporties on these elements altogether and just float them to the left. Then clear the floats by assigning clear:both to the .topInfo css property.
It's less code then your route will be and it's more structurally sound. :D.
.topThumbnail,
.topInfo {
float:left;
}
.topInfo {
clear:both;
}
Other people have already answered this with the solution, but I think it is important to understand why inline-block elements behave this way. All inline, table, and in this case, inline-block elements have the vertical-align property. The default value is set to baseline, hence the need to set vertical-align: top;.
See the docs here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/vertical-align.
