I would like one div in my web page to take up the whole area of the screen - vertically and horizontally.
There will be more divs below it.
I got the horizontal part, but I'm not sure how to do the vertical part.
This website does it to an extent: http://ournameismud.co.uk/#
Try setting the height of the html and body to 100% and then your div to 100% as well.
For Example
html, body {
height: 100%
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
#my-div {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
Edit: Forgot to set margin and padding to 0.

Currently when I zoom out, all the content goes to the left or right side. But I want to keep the content centered like this page for example. Here is the website which I want to keep the content centered when I zoom out.
Here is the body and wrapper CSS:
body {
background: #0a0a0a none repeat scroll 0 0;
font: 14px/20px "Conv_Gotham-Medium",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
min-width: 320px;
overflow-y: scroll;
}
#wrapper{
position: relative;
overflow: hidden;
}
The easiest way to keep something centered is to set margin: 0 auto and a specific width (or a max-width to keep it more dynamic). margin: 0 auto causes the horizontal margin to equally fill the remaining space while the vertical margin stays 0.
e.g. if your window width is 1280px and your #wrapper has a width of 1000px, both margin-left and margin-right will have 140px which leads to a centered wrapper

You seem to use the bootstrap framework.
Did you consider adding an additional class to your col-md-12, most conveniently trough jQuery with css-selectors or just plain CSS?
In your case like:
$(".webdesign-holder .col-md-12").css("max-width", value);
$(".webdesign-holder .col-md-12").css("margin", "0 auto");
OR
.webdesign-holder .col-md-12 {max-width:value;margin:0 auto}
I'm trying to make extensible sidebars to the full document height without Javascript. I started to wrote some code to make this happen, but however, both div height are not extending after the viewport size.
Here is a small codepen of what is my problem http://codepen.io/anon/pen/bpAzo. As you can see, if you scroll down, height of both sidebars are just set to viewport size which is weird because i set both body, html, #sidebars to height: 100%;.
Is there a way to extend to full page height without using Javascript ?
Thank you.
You just set your sidebar height to 100% which gives it just a 100% of current browser size. Remove the height of your sidebar and remove also the html and body code.
#sidebar {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
width: 100px;
color: green;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
.left {
background-color: blue;
left: 0;
}
.right {
background-color: red;
right: 0;
}

If you set html and body to 100% height it will just be 100% of the window ( it's parent ) size. You need to set a specific height ( 3000px ) or 200% for example, which will be 2 times the windows height.
Body tag on codepen by default have margin. Without margin all looks good.
http://codepen.io/suez/pen/zJhne
But in the future, i will reccomend you to use overflow: hidden; on body (combined with margin: 0), this will provide 100% confidence that all of your content always will be inside viewport (without any scrolling).
Edited: if you want to use more than 100% of viewport height for your site, then you need to use position: fixed; on sidebar.
Just make the "height" attribute in your CSS style sheet to "auto", like as follows,
sidebar {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
height:auto;
width: 100px;
color: green;
}
Don't worry about "sidebar.right" ,as u will see no red color on right side of your page. It will automatically show up when you add up some content to it or just add few <br /> tags.
I have two Elements horizontally aligned, and the left one is a list. If I add some items so that the list should start scrolling, the list just grows larger then my device height is and my second content on the right side scrolls away if I scroll the list downwards. So the list is more then 100% in height... Here is some code for you :
http://codepen.io/anon/pen/qhylB
As I have created this code I just noticed that my both divs don't scale to 100% of the device width. Could you explain me why?
It's because the scrollbar is on the body (or html for firefox I think). Instead you need to have the body's height fix to 100% and then move the scrollbar to the list container (33percent div):
http://codepen.io/jonigiuro/pen/JEkLH
html, body {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
height: 100%;
max-height: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
}
.content33percent {
height: 100%;
max-height: 100%;
overflow: scroll;
}
i changed your 66% to a fixed position, now when you scroll down it looks like you are scrolling the list when you are actually scrolling the whole document, this way you can apply the scrolling over the complete document:
http://codepen.io/anon/pen/KLzvo
.content66percent {
background-color: blue;
height: 100%;
width: 66%;
position: fixed;
right: 5px;
also, i have removed the floating from both the 66%er and the 33%er and adjusted them a little. if you want them to touch each other, change 66% to 66.53%.
I have a footer i created for a website, but for some reason when i change the width of the window the background image seems to just disappear throughout the right side as i'm shrinking the width of the window.
The footer is supposed to stretch 100% accross the bottom of the screen and does so until i start shrinking the width of the window to a certain point.
You can see an example of my issue Here
Any ideas how to fix this? I am totally stumped. Maybe i did something wrong with width?
The width of #footer is set to auto, and the content within (#content-wrapper) has a fixed width.
This is causing the horizontal bars to appear.
To solve this, you can set overflow:hidden to the parent div (#footer).
Try this:
#footer {
background-image: url("images/footer-bg.png");
background-repeat: repeat-x;
height: 451px;
margin: auto 0;
width: 100%;
overflow: hidden; //What you're looking for.
}
If you also want the inner div (#content-wrapper) to dynamically resize itself, use a percentage, instead of a pixel dimension for width:
#footer #content-wrapper {
height: 451px;
margin: auto;
width: 83%;
}
Hi i have check to your demo page you have define your footer width 1265px and now
than your define min width your html or body as like this
body, html {
min-width: 1265px;
}
because your max width is 1265 define to your footer so that you define same width your body or html
I know this has been discussed here many times, but none of the answers I found here, seem to address my problem.
I have this variable (in height) layout, and wnat the footer to always stick to the bottom.
I have used the min-height: 100%; to the container div, and got it somehow to always be in the bottom. trouble is, it's sinking too low to the bottom.
I've put an example here:
http://jsbin.com/erono3
As you can see, my footer is at the bottom, but will go too far in the bottom, and even though there's space on the page to display it, it's creating a scroll bar.
Also, I'd like the main container to to be shown as big as the content is (i.e. closing the square), but right now, it looks like the container is going all the way to the bottom, and my footer is covering it.
What am I doing wrong there?
Thanks in advance
You should take a look at the link by Ben Lee again :). I have used that in your layout to achieve the effect you want. See it here: http://jsbin.com/erono3/2
The important thing is for the footer to be part of the container. The container has a min-height of 100%. So it occupies the whole screen always. The header is normal what ever it is inside.
Then you should have an inner container element (important), where your main content resides. In the link above, it has the id #body. This would have a padding-bottom (to give space to the footer.
The footer is absolutely positioned with a bottom:0px meaning it is always going to be at the bottom of the container (the container has to be position:relative).
EDIT (in response to the comment)
To make your footer span the entire page, but keep everything else centered, just do this:
remove the width off of the #containter, #container spans the whole page. Provide a width to the #body element in the link above and center it, using margin: 0px auto. You get the effect you wanted.

Here's a simplified version of this, which is worth reading for the explanation. See if you can adapt yours to fit.
CSS:
html, body, div {
margin: 0;
border: 0;
padding: 0;
}
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
#wrap {
position: relative;
height: auto !important;
height: 100%;
min-height: 100%;
}
#footer {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0px;
width: 100%;
background-color: #aaa;
}
and HTML:
<div id="wrap">
<div id="content">Stuff goes here.</div>
<div id="footer">FOOTER</div>
</div>
The problem is you have a min-height of 100% on your container div. That means that the container will be 100% the height of its parent, which is the body tag which has a height of 100%. So if your viewport is 600px, then your body will be 600px, then your container will be 100% of that which is 600px, and then it will stick the footer after the container div which is why it goes below the veiwport.
So one thing you can do is just absolutely position your footer inside the body. Do this by changing your position to be absolute, and bottom:0px. It will float at the bottom.
You might want to put it in your container as well depending on what style you are going for and position it absolute in that and at the bottom.
Your problem is not that the footer is too low, but by making the body 100% it pushes the footer below the bottom of the page.
Consider putting the footer div inside the container div and getting rid of the margin-top: -5.5em and position: relative and it will work just fine.

This is particularly for anyone using ASP.NET master pages but also in general, if your content is also wrapped in a <form> element you will need to change
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
to
html, body, form {
height: 100%;
}
