I try to build a responsive design for a website but have runned in to a problem.
Visit this page : http://test.ufeed.se/
Change your browser size to under 820px and you will see a responsive design. The problem here is that I get a strange space between the data and the title? I have tried to find why there is a space but without luck?
This is the simple markup of the part :
<div class="rightPostCell">
<div class="titleCon">
<div class="linkIcoCon">
...
</div>
<div class="floatLeft">
...
</div>
</div>
<div class="data dimText">
<div class="commentsCon">
...
</div>
<div style="clear:both;"></div>
<div class="createdDateCon">
...
</div>
<div style="clear:both;"></div>
<div class="baseLinkCon">
...
</div>
</div>
<div style="clear:both;"></div>
</div>
Why is there a space between title and data? And how do I remove it?
Looks like it's a float issue (I find issues tend to crop up every time I use float, generally I prefer display: inline-block because it introduces fewer bizarre bugs like this) - if I disable clear: both on the data, it falls into place correctly.
Changes you need to make to your mobile.css file
.postContainer .titleCon{
overflow:hidden; /* ADD this property */
}
.postContainer .data{
overflow:hidden; /* ADD this property */
clear:both; /* REMOVE this property */
}
line 37 of your PostList.css
add overflow:auto
in mobile.css line 80
change float:none
to clear:both
will need to add some margin after that but it removes the space that occurred.
try this one it will solve your issue
add clear class after left and right cell and add over flow hidden in .postContainer .rightPostCell class
<div class="postContainer">
<div class="leftPostCell">data</div>
<div class="rightPostCell">data</div>
<div style="clear:both;"></div>
</div>
.postContainer .rightPostCell {margin-left: 123px;overflow: hidden;}
There are a lot of solutions. Here is one:
mobile.css line 80
.postContainer {
width: 100%;
padding: 3px;
float: left;
}
PostList.css line 37
.postContainer .rightPostCell {
float: left;
}

I'm getting some strange whitespace between two divs I have.
Each div has the css property display: inline-block and each have a set height and width.
I cannot find where the whitespace is.
Here is a Fiddle
You get whitespace there because you have whitespace inbetween the divs. Whitespace between inline elements is interpreted as a space.
You have:
<div id="left_side">
<div id="plan">
<h1>div 1</h1>
</div>
</div>
<div id="right_side">
<div id="news">
<h1>div 2</h1>
</div>
</div>
Change for:
<div id="left_side">
<div id="plan">
<h1>div 1</h1>
</div>
</div><div id="right_side">
<div id="news">
<h1>div 2</h1>
</div>
</div>
However, this is a bad way to do what you want to do.
You should float the elements if thats what you want to do.
Use:
float:left;
clear:none;
In both div
If you want to retain your coding layout, avoid floats and keep each div on it's own line entirely...
<div id="leftSide">Some content here</div><!--
--><div id="rightSide">Some more content here</div>
Only add this to your CSS
h1 {
padding:0;
margin:0;
}
Space between div is only due to h1 Margin and Padding
This does the trick:
<div id="left_side">
...
</div><div id="right_side">
...
</div>
Notice how the right-side div starts immediately after the closing tag of the left-side div. This works because any space between the elements, since they are now inline, would become a space in the layout itself. You can mirror this behavior with two span elements.
Demo.
You can also add display: flex; to the divs' parent container (in this case, body). Fiddle.
best way is settings parent element's font-size to 0 then normal font-size to child elements inside that parent (otherwise inherits zero from parent)
Floated both of the elements left, also made the 30% width into 40% to fill all the space, but this isn't necessary. Please be aware, "inline-block" isn't supported by IE7 but can be fixed with a workaround.
http://jsfiddle.net/RVAQp/3/
Move these statements onto the same line:
</div><div id="right_side">
Tried using float instead of "inline-block", no problems. Just changed the display:inline-block to:
#left_side {float: left;}
and
#right_side {float: right; margin-right: 10%}
No apparent problems. Could be wrong.
Don't know why but I resolved this problem by adding border: 1px solid red;(vertical) and float: left;(horizontal) to related DIV style statement and white-spaces removed.
Parent div set to font-size: 0px and chiilds to wanted size like 17px :)
I am creating my first site using bootstrap, and as its a joomla site its version 2.3
I am having some problems getting going
here is the code so far:
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="row logobar">
<div class="span12">
<div class="logoholder">
<img src="templates/<?php echo $this->template ?>/images/open-plan-design-logo.jpg" alt="Open Plan Design Logo " />
</div>
</div>
<!-- row --></div>....
and the css
body {
background:#231f21;
background-color:#DCDBDB;
color:#fff;
}
.container {
background-color:yellow;
}
.logoholder{
width:499px;
margin:0 auto;
}
.logobar {
margin-bottom:20px;
background-color:green;
}
At reduced screen widths everything looks fine - the image is centered, and reduces in size
However, at full width the image is not exactly centered, and there is an odd bit of green (from .logobar) sticking out at the left. If I take out the .row then the green disappears but of course nothing is resonsive
I guess I am doing something wrong...
you can see what I mean here www.opd.ee-web.co.uk
You need to change your row to row-fluid which will remove this negative margin.
<div class="row-fluid logobar">
Documentation [1].
More info [1].
The elements with .row have a negative margin applied to ensure and contained .span elements are correctly aligned.
You can remove this negative margin with some custom css, but that is likely to cause more problems.
The ideal solution is to simple move the logobar to the span level.
<div class="span12 logobar">
Add following code in your custom css file
body .row{
margin-left:0 !important;
}
hi I have two container divs one of them has a div with an image background and i think this is the div that is causing problem. I tried removing both container divs and the gap was still here. there are no margins no paddings, and i know it is not the image that has this line its not there when i open it in photoshop. I am also using css reset
Where is this space coming from?
css
.container{
width:100%;
}
.container2{
width:100%;
}
.first-image{
width:1430px;
height:497px;
background-image:url('../images/introimg.jpg');
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-size: 100%;
border:none;
}
.jamey{
width:35%;
}
.second-image{
width:1430px;
height:430px;
background-image:url('../images/secondimg.jpg');
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-size: 100%;
}

Your problem can be removed by,
.first-image
{
margin-bottom: -20px; // or desired settings !
}
You may try adding the
box-sizing: border-box;
It helps setting padding/borders (maybe you have one) internal to the element. If it has some effect you can override these settings later.
Anyway, it's recommended that you add a jsFiddle so we can see for ourselves.
Please check out this website --> http://justicecup.radiantwebtools.com/
The section underneath the nav/logo/social-media area is further apart in Firefox as opposed to Chrome/Safari (the desired separation).
The issue seems to have to do with this part of the HTML:
<div class="header-container">...</div> <!--- Okay... --->
<div class="row content"> <!--- DevTools shows this the right underneath the header area...okay, thats correct --->
<div class="width-container">...</div> <!--- on Chrome/Safari it's good. On Firefox, this is pushed down further....why? --->
</div>
I have tried giving the header area some css to work against this, to no avail
.header-container { overflow:none;}
This screenshot shows the difference too --> http://screencast.com/t/CrF9HEaki
Thanks for your help.
I think the issue might have something to do with collapsing margins.
One fix for the issue, is to change the two rules below:
#template .content .story-primary {
margin-top: 28px;
}
#template .content .story {
margin-top: 62px;
}
to:
#template .content .story-primary {
padding-top: 28px;
}
#template .content .story {
padding-top: 62px;
}
Your page layout is quite complex and I think part of your problem stems from using .width-container in two unsuitable places. I've been fiddling with the css using the browser's inspect element, however when I change the styling in one it cascades to the other. I think a redesign of your page would be helpful. I would suggest enclosing the whole page content (excluding the background) in a div and applying the width-container styling to that.
<div id="body">
<div class="width-container">
<div id="templatewrapper"> ... </div>
<div id="templatefooter"> ... </div>
</div>
</div>
Next you should rename the width-container around the header stuff to something more appropriate.
<div id="page-header">
<div class="logo"> ... </div>
<div class="rwtmodule navigation-module meganav"> ... </div>
<div class="social-media"> ... </div>
</div>
After doing this you should replace the float:left; on the logo, navigation and social media to display:inline-block and get rid of the various margins. Then apply a padding or margin to the #page-header to push them down. The .logo and .social media will be in the wrong place but you can use position:relative and top:/*some value*/ to correct this.
After doing this, the site should look like the current firefox version in both firefox and chrome. You can then move the main body of the page up using relative positioning as you did with the logo and social media.
Remember to test this out in a safe location first!
Hope this helps.
I am trying to create a 4 column <div> layout.
Why are the row containers not drawing a border around the respective row?
Also, is this a good approach, as in is my css written well to be fluid and for dynamic resizing of the browser window?
Any suggestions or help would be most appreciated.
Here is my current attempt.
You need to set the overflow to auto when using float. http://jsfiddle.net/gJJHs/
The problem seems to be that you are floating your columns, and when you float things, they take up effectively zero space.
I think the solution is to cancel the float in you "last" class and add a "dummy column" to each row.
This CSS seems to work:
.col
{
float: left;
width: 25%;
}
.last{
clear: left;
}
.row{
border: 1px solid green;
}
Revised HTML (with dummy last column):
<div class="row">
<div class="col">1</div>
<div class="col">2</div>
<div class="col">3</div>
<div class="col">4</div>
<div class="last" />
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col">5</div>
<div class="col">6</div>
<div class="col">7</div>
<div class="col">8</div>
<div class="last" />
</div>
When an element is floated, its parent no longer contains it because the float is removed from the flow. The floated element is out of the natural flow, so all block elements will render as if the floated element is not even there, so a parent container will not fully expand to hold the floated child element.
As such, the border will seem like it is not bordering anything :( Take a look at the following article to get a better idea of how the CSS Float property works:
The Mystery Of The CSS Float Property
As others have said, if you add overflow: auto; to your .row class, it'll take care of the problem. Here's another article that explains why to use overflow.

I hope this helps.

it's the float left. That takes the divs "out of flow" and it's drawing the border around empty space essentially
Yet another option, in addition to the other answers, is to add overflow: hidden; to your .row.
The reason for the behavior you saw is that float takes the div outside of the normal flow. The div then essentially takes up no space in the document.
This makes sense if you think about the ostensible purpose of floating an image in order to wrap text around it. The next p tag (for example) is positioned as if the floated image wasn't there, i.e. overlapping the image. Then, the browser wraps the text within the 'p' tag around the image. (If the floated image was not "removed from the flow", the p tag would naturally appear below the image—not giving the desired effect.)
Here's how I'd write the code.
HTML:
<div class="row">
<div class="col">1</div>
<div class="col">2</div>
<div class="col">3</div>
<div class="col">4</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col">5</div>
<div class="col">6</div>
<div class="col">7</div>
<div class="last">8</div>
</div>
CSS:
.col
{
float: left;
width: 25%;
}
.row{
border: 1px solid green;
overflow: hidden; /* "overflow: auto;" works just as well instead */
width:100%; /* Helps older versions of IE */
}
Add a "float:none;clear:both" to your .row and you'll see the rows appropriately. But for the fluid behavior and design that you are looking for, you'll want to apply some javascript (like jQuery Equal Height: http://www.jainaewen.com/files/javascript/jquery/equal-height-columns/) to be consistent across browsers without a ton of CSS hacking.
