How can I tell the orange div to line-break its text/content so that the yellow div does not linebreak?
div green and div yellow must have a fixed width. The div between them should have width:auto that means the div grows with the content and breaks with the content.
I do only IE9+ and latest Chrome/FF
Set its width with CSS calc().
Demo
#address{
width: calc(100% - 100px);
}
Browser support for calc()
#Itay 's answer is great, but I would recommend you use absolute position for compatibility reason. For front-end developers, compatibility is everything.
.wrapper{
position: relative;
border-top:white solid 1px;
border-bottom:#ddd solid 1px;
}
#alarmNumber{
position: absolute;
left:0;
width:50px;
background:lightgreen;
}
#address{
float:left;
margin: 0 50px;
}
#expander{
position:absolute;
right:0;
background:yellow;
text-align:center;
width:50px;
height:100%;
}
DEMO
You could do this with position:absolute and box-sizing
#alarmNumber{
float:left;
width:50px;
background:lightgreen;
position:relative; /* add this */
z-index:1; /* add this so that it appears on top of address */
}
#address{
width:100%;
padding: 0 50px; /* add this */
position:absolute; /* add this */
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box; /* add this */
}

I have a confirm box and I want to show it in the middle of my screen.
margin 0 auto does not solve my problem.
How can I center it?
https://jsfiddle.net/y5u5obL0/
#confirmBox{
position:fixed;
margin:0 auto;
width:500px;
height:150px;
background:#ffffff;
border:1px solid #ddd;
}
It's because the element is fixed.
You need to add left: 0;/right: 0 in order for the element to be centered (in combination with margin: 0 auto). In doing so, the element technically stretches to fill the screen, but since it has a width specified, it will be contained and centered within the available space.
Updated Example
#confirmBox {
position:fixed;
left: 0;
right: 0;
margin:0 auto;
width:500px;
height:150px;
background:#ffffff;
border:1px solid #ddd;
}
Use the following code to vertically and horizontally center anything, change relative to absolute if you want to remove it from the page flow. Check out the demo to see it in action
(Demo)
HTML
<div class="wrap">
<div class="mycontent">
Hello World!
</div>
</div>
CSS
.wrap {
position: relative;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%,-50%);
display: inline-block;
max-width: 100%;
max-height: 100%;
}
Margin: 0 auto; will not work until you will not provide left:0; and right:0
check fiddle for working example :https://jsfiddle.net/nileshmahaja/y5u5obL0/1/

Hi everyone my tutorial has a tree div for now. Header,container and footer. header is fixed. but if you check it in JSFiddle you see container div has a problem lags behind the header div i can not solv the problem. what can i do in my css code?
This is HTML code:
<div class="globalHeader">
<div class="globalheader-in"></div>
</div>
<div class="global_container">
<div class="container">
1 <br>2 <br>3 <br>4 <br>5 <br>
</div>
</div>
And CSS code:
.global_container {
clear:both;
width:981px;
height: auto;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
border-right:1px solid #d8dbdf;
overflow:hidden;
background-color:#f8f8f8;
}
.container {
float:left;
width:981px;
height:100px;
background-color:red;
}
.globalHeader {
width:100%;
height:40px;
position:fixed;
background-color:#2a3542;
z-index:99999;
}
.globalheader-in {
width:981px;
height:40px;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
border-right:1px solid #fff;
border-left:1px solid #fff;
}
Using a spacer
You can push the content of container down by adding a spacer element as the first child of the container.
.container:before {
content: ' ';
display: block;
height: 40px; /* equal to the height of the header */
}
WORKING DEMO.
Using top padding
You can also use padding-top for the container to achieve that:
.container {
width:981px;
height:100px;
/* other styles... */
padding-top: 40px;
}
WORKING DEMO.
However If you want to keep the height of the container as 100px, you should use box-sizing: border-box to calculate the height of the container including paddings and borders, as follows:
.container {
width:981px;
height:100px;
padding-top: 40px;
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
WORKING DEMO
I would do it like this:
http://jsfiddle.net/8eSAU/5/
.global_container{
clear:both;
position: relative;
top: 40px;
}
It was not working, because you simply hid the text beneath the fixed element.
Kolay gelsin :)
Why not add:
position:relative;
top:40px;
To .global_container {
Demo Fiddle
This assumes you wish the header to scroll with the content, in which case all you need to do per the demo is offset the top of the content by the height of the header, so it initially displays below it.
A simple padding-top will take care of that.
JSFiddle
.global_container{
clear:both;
width:981px;
height: auto;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
border-right:1px solid #d8dbdf;
overflow:hidden;
background-color:#f8f8f8;
padding-top:40px; /* heigt of fixed header */
}
you can add padding-top to the .global_container or body
padding-top should be same as height of header.
Please find the link below for the Fiddle
Add the following to global_container class
position:absolute;
top:47px;

I have the following problem:
I'd like to create a html page where a #sidebar spans a constant 27px and a #content spans the remaining part of the screen. The #content is divided into two areas splitting it at 40% - 60%.
<html>
<body>
<div id="sidebar">
</div>
<div id="content">
<div id="forty-percent">
</div>
<div id="sixty-percent">
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
I have tried to make the following css:
#sidebar{
width:27px;
}
#content{
position:absolute;
padding-left:27px;
width:100%;
}
But then I cannot divide the content into 40%-60%, because percentages are calculated from the width of the #content and not from its area inside.
What am I doing wrong? Can you please help?
UPDATE:
The demo of the NOT working version:
http://jsbin.com/iseqon/1/edit
Ideally the dashed boxes should be side-by-side, inside the blue box.
This may suit more your needs. If you want to have a better control of your #sidebar & #content vertical alignment, you must use inline-block to have a CSS only solution.
You can view it live here: http://codepen.io/jpsirois/pen/dvbmEy
* {
/* This prevent padding to be added on defined width */
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
body {
font-size: 0; /* Need to be set to 0 to properly use inline-block here */
color: white; /* For a better preview purpose only */
}
#sidebar,
#content {
display: inline-block; /* Allow vertical-align control (float didn’t) */
font-size: 16px; /* Reset font-size to normal */
vertical-align: middle; /* Demo of vertical-alignement */
}
#sidebar {
width: 27px;
background: darkred;
height: 50px; /* For a better preview purpose only */
margin-right: -27px; /* This allow #content to be inlined aside */
}
#content {
font-size: 0; /* Need to be set to 0 to properly use inline-block here */
width: 100%;
padding-left: 27px;
}
#forty-percent,
#sixty-percent {
height: 100px;/* For a better preview purpose only */
display: inline-block;
font-size: 16px; /* Reset font-size to normal */
}
#forty-percent {
width: 40%;
background: darkgreen;
}
#sixty-percent {
width: 60%;
background: darkblue;
}
You need this to float the #sidebar and give an equal margin-left to the #content, and also float the two inner boxes so they can sit side by side..
#sidebar {
width:27px;
float:left;
}
#content {
margin-left:27px;
overflow:auto;
}
#forty-percent {
width:40%;
float:left;
}
#sixty-percent {
width:60%;
float:left;
}
and also to not use the # char in the actual id
Demo at http://jsfiddle.net/gaby/8a7CN/
(your fixed jsbin demo at http://jsbin.com/iseqon/4/edit you need to keep in mind that borders add to the width so it cannot work with percentages very well)
how about having a parent div that would be relative and then having the div inside float right or left with absolute position within container. when the parent container is pos relative and the child is pos absolute, the children with position with respect to their container. In other words, something like that (untested but should give you the right idea)
#wrapper {
position:relative;
width:100%;
margin:50px;
}
#leftCol {
width:60%;
background-color:yellow;
}
#rightCol {
width:40%;
position:absolute;
right:0px;
top:0px;
height:100px;
background-color:red;
}
</style>
<div id='wrapper'>
<div='leftCol'>
</div>
<div id='rightCol'>
</div>
</div>
I am using your HTML only change the CSS.
My CSS is
#sidebar
{
width:27px;
min-width:27px;
float:left;
}
#content
{
float:right;
width:100%-28px;
min-width:100%-28px;
}
#forty-percent
{
width:40%;
float:left;
}
#sixty-percent
{
width:60%;
float:right;
}
Hope this will help you.Thanks.
I'm creating a sidebar with this CSS code:
.sidebar {
position: absolute;
z-index: 100;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 30%;
height: 100%;
border-right: 1px solid #333;
}
But the sidebar width doesn't scale when I change the browser width. How can I make the sidebar fluid?
Thanks.
Look at the height in body in CSS part.
Here is a working example for you:
Your HTML:
<div id="content">
<p>This design uses a defined body height of 100% which allows setting the contained left and
right divs at 100% height.</p>
</div>
<div id="sidebar">
<p>This design uses a defined body height which of 100% allows setting the contained left and
right divs at 100% height.</p>
</div>
Your CSS:
body {
margin:0;
padding:0;
width:100%; /* this is the key! */
}
#sidebar {
position:absolute;
right:0;
top:0;
padding:0;
width:30%;
height:100%; /* works only if parent container is assigned a height value */
color:#333;
background:#eaeaea;
border:1px solid #333;
}
#content { margin-right: 200px; }
Its kind of an odd issue, but it seems its challenging to get the background color to stretch to the bottom of both columns, when using fluid layout.
I included the workaround along with a simple 2 column fluid layout.
Try this- jsFiddle
html, body {
margin:0;
padding:0;
background:silver;
/* workaround to get the columns to look even,
change color depending on which column is longer */
}
#sidebar {
position:absolute;
left:0px;
top:0px;
padding:0;
width:30%;
background:silver;
word-wrap:break-word;
}
#content {
position:absolute;
right:0px;
width:70%;
word-wrap:break-word;
background:gray;
}
I have this code.
Wish div align blue with red div without affecting the rest of the page.
Notice that the div#leftcontent not go to the bottom of the page and I'm not understanding why.
Maybe the solution is to put the div#leftcontent aligned to the bottom of the page. But how?
Thanks.
you have to change the red div:
bottom: 0px; /*delete*/
position:relative;
maring-top: 86px; /*to align to the blue*/
check this out: http://jsfiddle.net/85unG/48/
and for the height, the reason the its not touching the bottom is:
div#wrap {
height: 768px; /should be 739 px;/
}
CSS absolute positioning to the rescue!
First ditch the fixed height and the overflow:auto for div#wrap. Replace overflow:auto with overflow:hidden:
div#wrap
{
width:1024px;
/*height:768px; /* Forget about it! */
margin:5px auto;
border:2px solid #ccc;
/*overflow:auto;/* Forget about it! */ overflow:hidden;
position:relative;
}
... now note that div#wrap has a relative position:
div#wrap
{
width:1024px;
margin:5px auto;
border:2px solid #ccc;
overflow:hidden;
position:relative; /* AWESOME */
}
This means div#wrap is non-statically positioned, so we can position things absolutely within it... like div#footer and div#social-networks:
div#wrap div#leftcontent div#footer {
position:absolute;
bottom:0px;
}
div#wrap div#nav div#social-networks {
position:absolute;
bottom:0px;
}
This will position the bottom edge of div#footer and div#social-networks 0px away from the bottom edge of its non-statically positioned ancestor - namely, div#wrap.
Bad news though: positioning things absolutely can screw up the natural flow of things, so you have to manually reserve some space for div#footer and div#social-networks. Do this with padding:
div#wrap
{
width:1024px;
margin:5px auto;
border:2px solid #ccc;
overflow:hidden;
position:relative;
padding-bottom:50px; /* this is new... you can choose a better number than 50px */
}
