i am trying to remove the white space between two imput fields for all my form elements.
i decreased the height but after that the next label goes up
can you tell me how to remove it
http://jsfiddle.net/DA9gK/18/
<div class="control-group">
<label class="control-label" for="inputEmail">Company Name</label>
<div class="controls">
<input type="text" id="inputEmail">
</div>
</div>
<div class="control-group">
<label class="control-label" for="inputEmail">Contact Name</label>
<div class="controls">
<input type="text" id="inputEmail">
</div>
</div>
I don't think anyone could help You by now. You have big mess here. Update jsfiddle with HTML and CSS windows. Btw - you're writing about padding or margin styles imo in labels. (margin-bottom:0)
I think this should solve your problem, I have answered it there. Thank you. button alignment in form fields
Damn! I apologize for the uncorrect fast answer, ok I have zeroed in on your problem, and the problem lies in the css file that you are importing viz. "http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/assets/css/bootstrap.css" and your elements are inheriting the style attribute from it, and your white space problem is exactly on 'line no 1945' where its explicitly defined
.form-horizontal .controls {
*display: inline-block;
*padding-left: 20px;
margin-left: 180px;
*margin-left: 0;
so either you have to manually override those or use the good old "!important" attribute.
PS: you have to edit the 'margin-left' attributes value to maybe 160px or something which you are comfortable with.
It's because of the padding and margin on label.control-label. Remove the top padding or bottom margin. (I think removing the margin looks better.)
label.control-label {
margin-bottom: 0;
}

I have created a sample jsFiddle here, with the html copied straight from my web page. I have included the css for bootstrap 4 which i have compiled using sass, along with the rest of my css.
Now from what i can see, this should all line up fine, and on all sizes it does, until you get to a small display. Then for some reason the input boxes and buttons seem to go all the way to the edge, but the rest of the content (labels, headers, p text, tabs etc) seem to stay within the bounds of the tab-content box.
Here is the link to the jsFiddle example
https://jsfiddle.net/Gillardo/y3Lr9sbf/1/
Why is this? Have i laid something out incorrectly, or is it just a bug with bootstrap 4 currently? I am asking here because if i go to the bs4 examples, it lays out correctly, which you can find here, and i cannot tell what i have done differently http://v4-alpha.getbootstrap.com/components/forms/#using-the-grid
An example of how my form is created, using form-group is like so
<div class="row form-group">
<label class="col-sm-3 form-control-label">Label</label>
<div class="col-sm-9 col-md-7">
<input class="form-control form-control-lg ng-pristine ng-untouched ng-valid" disabled="disabled">
</div>
</div>
Class .tab-content is set with 0 padding, if you want some change the following:
.nav-pills+.tab-content {
border: 0;
padding-bottom: 3rem;
padding-left: 0; // <-- change
padding-right: 0; // <-- change
}
Alternative answer, modify .row class to remove negative margins:
.row{
margin-left: 0 !important;
margin-right: 0 !important;
}
I've got an issue that I'd love to solve by using CSS without resorting to statically sizing my labels (but perhaps it isn't possible).
I have two labels per line, one for displaying a "title" and the other for displaying the associated "value". Here's how I'd like it to look:
This is similar to Align labels in form next to input but I'm wanting the second element per line left-aligned instead of the first one to be right-aligned. I tried modifying the accepted answer from that question and set the width of the "title" label, but that has no effect on my output. As I mentioned above, I'd rather not hard-code a width anyways, but I was hoping to get something working before trying to find a good, long-term solution that can account for larger "title" values.
Here's my current CSS (the classes should be self-explanatory):
.propertyTitle {
text-transform: uppercase;
width: 300px;/*Why doesn't this have any effect?*/
}
.propertyValue {
text-align: left;
}
And my current HTML:
<div>
<div>
<label class="propertyTitle">Hello:</label>
<label class="propertyValue">World</label>
</div>
<div>
<label class="propertyTitle">Goodbye:</label>
<label class="propertyValue">To All of the People in the World</label>
</div>
<div>
<label class="propertyTitle">I Want:</label>
<label class="propertyValue">These labels to line up</label>
</div>
</div>
The HTML can be modified as well, if that'd make it easier. To conform with best practices, I'd rather not use tables to make this work.
Here's a jsFiddle showing what I have now, what am I missing? Ideally this solution would work for IE8+ and Firefox, so unfortunately HTML5 and CSS3 elements are discouraged.
EDIT
To reiterate after the first two answers came in (that both solve my issue), is there a way to do this without hard-coding a width for my "title" labels?
grouping your divs and labels like so:
<div>
<div class="titleWrap">
<label class="propertyTitle">Hello:</label>
<label class="propertyTitle">Goodbye:</label>
<label class="propertyTitle">I Want:</label>
</div>
<div class="valueWrap">
<label class="propertyValue">World</label>
<label class="propertyValue">To All of the People in the World</label>
<label class="propertyValue">These labels to line up</label>
</div>
</div>
with the following CSS:
.propertyTitle {
display:block;
text-transform: uppercase;
width: auto;
}
.titleWrap{
display:inline-block;
}
.propertyValue {
display:block;
width:auto;
}
.valueWrap {
display:inline-block;
}
should give you the desired result without having to specify the widths
Check out this jsFiddle
try using display:inline-block on your labels
.propertyTitle {
text-transform: uppercase;
width: 300px;/*Why doesn't this have any effect?*/
display: inline-block;
}
by default label is an inline element. that's why width property doesn't apply to label.
to apply the width you have to convert the label into a block level element by using display:block.
I hope it clarify the answer.
so you have to use this CSS property in your code.
.propertyTitle {
text-transform: uppercase;
display:inline-block; /*this will make the label a block level element*/
width: 300px;/*Why doesn't this have any effect?*/
}
More modern version is display: inline-flex;
I've got a form, which has a legend and a set of fields. I'm using Bootstrap 2.x to style it. For some reason, space appears above the form, but in Chrome only (it renders fine in IE10 and Firefox). I've pared it back to just the basics to demonstrate the issue I'm having:
<form>
<fieldset>
<legend>Legend</legend>
<div class="control-group">
<!-- This div results in the space appearing above the form -->
<label class="control-label">First Name</label>
<div class="controls">
<input type="text" />
</div>
</div>
</fieldset>
</form>
If I remove the class="control-group" from the div wrapping the input field, the space magically disappears, despite seemingly having nothing to do with this issue. I've checked all the margins and padding of everything in Chrome, and there's nothing, so I don't know where this spacing is coming from. I need to use this class on these field divs, as I'm implementing a horizontal form. I'm pulling my hair out trying to work out how to fix this issue - any ideas? Here's a jsfiddle to demonstrate: http://jsfiddle.net/christhecoder/kDrVH/3/
Any help would be much appreciated!
http://jsfiddle.net/kDrVH/10/
#import url("http://netdna.bootstrapcdn.com/twitter-bootstrap/2.3.2/css/bootstrap.min.css");
legend+.control-group{
margin-top:0px;
}
you get 20 margin from this: legend+.control-group
This is because bootstrap CSS rules for <legend> has margin-bottom:20px
Just add a CSS rule:
legend {
margin-bottom: 0px;
}
Also you can add this only to your legend label:
<legend style="margin-bottom: 0px;">
// Whatever you want
</legend>
JSFIDDLE DEMO
Instead of
legend+.control-group {
margin-top: 20px;
}
Use this.
It will preserve your current layout and remove space above the form.
legend+.control-group {
padding-top: 20px;
}
I need to show (within a div tag) a label and right next to the label an input. I am using bootstrap css and my code is as follows:
<div class="row">
<div class="span3">
<div class="control-group">
<label class="control-label" for="txtInput">Enter Text:</label>
<div class="controls">
<input id="txtId" class="input-medium" name="txtInput" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
No matter what I do there is a space between the label ("Enter Text:") and the left margin of Input.
How do I change the HTML or CSS to accomplish this? TIA
To adjust the position of only your input field you should be able to just apply the "position" CSS property of that element. Once you set that "position" property as relative you can move the element's position relative to its initial starting location using top,bottom,left, and right.
In the below example I moved your input field 5 pixels to the left of where it normally would be.
<style>
.controls{
position:relative;
left:-5px;
}
</style>
Try removing any whitespace between the elements. For example:
<label class="control-label" for="txtInput">Enter Text:</label><div class="controls"><input id="txtId" class="input-medium" name="txtInput" /></div>
Then, just remove the margin or padding of the div or input, if you want them to be placed right next to each other. The whitespace between them is rendered, so you'll have to remove it. Another approach I've seen is (but never used) is to put an HTML comment between the elements instead, like this:
<label class="control-label" for="txtInput">Enter Text:</label><!--
--><div class="controls"><!--
--><input id="txtId" class="input-medium" name="txtInput" />
</div>
See if either of those help. I recently ran into this problem where I was getting unexpected whitespace between my labels and inputs, and I couldn't remove it without using negative margin, which I didn't like. The solution I found was to remove the whitespace as in the first example. It doesn't look too pretty in the code, but it works.
Good luck!
You could put a negative margin on input-medium to force it to be closer to the label:
div.controls {
display:inline;
}
.input-medium {
margin-left:-4px;
}
I'm sure there are a lot of people with this problem, but I can't find a proper solution. That is basically is the problem. I've got a form with two pairs of label and field.
HTML:
<label for="Account">Inlognaam:</label>
<input class="field" id="Account" name="Account" type="
<br />
<label for="Wachtwoord">Wachtwoord:</label>
<input class="field" id="Wachtwoord" name="Wachtwoord" type="password" />
CSS:
label {
width: 150px;
float: left;
text-align: left;
}
So the problem is: when I don't use the 'float:left;' the input field will be not nice structured. BUT the label is going top-aligned. How can this be fixed?
An example is visible here: http://jsfiddle.net/ptKEh/9/ (comment float:left; to see what I mean)
EDIT::
Another thing... The input fields are in Chrome correct but in IE9 (9.0.8) the second field is a little shorter.
instead of floating the labels just use display: inline-block;
it will preserve the vertical alignment and it works even on IE6 and 7
I would recommend using padding to move the text down to be inline. This will only work with 1 line of text for the label and is cross browser capable.
I have put together an example jsfiddle http://jsfiddle.net/ptKEh/11/
