So basically I am trying to figure out a super simple and clean way with html and css to have user avatars sit directly to the left of a comment on an article.
I am trying out float left on an image which works but then block elements seem to still go behind it even though text doesn't?
Any idea why?
See here for example: http://www.prxa.info/articles/rochard.1579#comments
The second comments quote box goes behind avatar but the text does not?
The images are just using this:
style="float: left; padding-right: 10px; clear: right;"
Tried with and without the clear - no difference.
add these rules
.qoute {
float: left;
width: 80%;
}
and put the rest of the comment in a div and clear the DIV for putting it in new Line

I wish to make the blue circles float left for odd numbers and right for even numbers. I've tried floating the elements but it doesn't seem to work.
I've used table and table-cells to achieve the centered text and logos but cannot seem to get them to inverse unless i switched the positioning of the elements

Here is a current demo:

Result Demo (re positioned dom elements to achieve result, need to do it without re positioning them):
https://jsfiddle.net/wcttx9vm/
you might need to a add class for the even columns and change floating and display properties as follows:
.even .content {
display: block;
}
.even .circle {
float: right;
}
.even .content {
display: inline;
}

what I don't understand: When you want a table, why you don't use ? A table can be used to display table-content, but not for pure layouting.
In your case I would do it like this: Take a php-file and do the "layouting" there. That means that you will do the even-odd-placement in a for-loop and switch the odd layout there. I guess it would be the easiest way.
And your current demo code can't work, since your bubble is always first in code. That is ok for the left positioning, but for right positioning it needs to be after the text. Otherwise you will screw it up.
I need to display text vertically in a rowspan within a table. The technique I'm using via CSS seems to "work", but the width of the <p> element can't be changed or else the text wraps to the next line and its not pretty.
Take a look at this jsfiddle I put together in order to replicate my issue.

Any alternatives here? Or possible a fix to my current CSS.
Note: Probably doesn't matter but I'm using the INK Framework (similar
to bootstrap).
Actually I figured it out, it was as simple as using white-space: nowrap;
Which I completely forgot about!
http://jsfiddle.net/wn4ofcwx/7/
The text doesn't wrap because we are explicitly stating nowrap, you can re size the window to see how it keeps its position, now I can apply a width of just 10px to take away all that excessive white space in the rowspan.
Check this out: http://jsfiddle.net/wn4ofcwx/4/
What I added to the class .rotate-vertical:
display: block;
margin: auto auto;
height: 17px;
And I took out : Width: 50px;
Cheers
Actually you can keep out the : display: block;
The p element is already a display: block by default and you didn't overwrite it anywhere.
I am trying to transcribe some of Prof. Dr. Edsger Dijkstra's EWD's, but running into a little problem. In his writing he likes to place comments such as 'End of Proof' at the end of the paragraph, right aligned when there is room, or on the next line otherwise. I would like to recreate this formatting, but seem unable to do so. I'd really prefer a solution using only CSS, but if that proves impossible, JavaScript is also allowed.
Please see http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/EWD/ewd10xx/EWD1001.PDF on page number 0 (2nd page of PDF) the comment "End of Legenda" and page number 3 (5th page of PDF) the comment "End of Remark".
I've tried using the display: block / float: right combo which #starx answered with. However, as it is a float, it does not move the rest of the text down. Looking through the source document, the formatting seems ad-hoc, but it seems Dijkstra liked to keep it on the same line if possible, or move it to the next, right aligned, if not.
Searched through the different CSS specs, but I can't as yet fathom a way to accomplish this.
Assuming, you are giving class block to the element.
.block {
display: block;
width: 200px; /* minimum needed to be inline */
float: right;
}
My suggestion would be to use the :after pseudo-element to add the caption at the end of the appropriate paragraph:
.remark:after {
content: 'End of Remark';
color: red;
display: inline-block;
float: right;
}
Example: http://dabblet.com/gist/2406457
If this (End of sth) text must be on its own line, then make it a block (it could be already a block if it's a paragraph or an HTML5 footer element but then it doesn't change anything ;) ) and align text to the right with text-align: right;.
If text isn't exactly 100% right, then you can play with its width or with padding-right:
.end_of {
display: block;
text-align: right;
padding-right: 20px;
}
EDIT: by default, an element rendered as a block is 100% wide. No float, no need to either clear next element from any float or clear block element from previous floats.
If you float the extra content to the right, you will also need to clear the float, otherwise the extra content will conflict with the rest of the text.
So here's my solution. Tested on all major browsers.
.theEnd:after {
display:block;
content:'End of Latin';
text-align:right;
white-space:nowrap;
padding-left:1em;
float:right;
}
.theEnd + * {clear:right}
See jsFiddle.
I am working on a blog: http://poweryogatrainings.blogspot.com/search. If you check the link you can see that currently the blog posts are just below the thumbnail. Now I am trying to make the blog posts align beside (on the right side of) the thumbnail but I am not sure how. Does anyone know what is causing the line break and what can I do to avoid it?
Also I think there was a website where you could edit codes of your website and watch the preview without actually changing the codes. Any ideas about it?
Simply add left float to the image, and give it some space to the right and bottom, as below:
img.postthumb {
float: left;
margin: 0 10px 10px 0;
}
Use float to place your contents on same line. Like float:left; for img tag will allow contents to be displayed horizontally.
if your thumbnails are all the same width, then you can do this:
article { overflow: hidden; /* or some other clearfix method */ }
article img.postthumb { float: left; }
article h3, article header, article div.postbody, article footer { margin-left: WIDTH_OF_IMAGE }
a few points:
WIDTH_OF_IMAGE should be replaced by the actual width of your image, and possibly any extra space that you want to appear between it and the words of your article
the code I've recommended will line things up in columns, if you want to avoid that, then just remove the third line of css and you will have flowing paragraphs which wrap the image
there is a lot you could do to make your code a bit more consise, for instance your article's h3 tag should really be in your article's header tag etc. You also have <title> and <meta> tags in your body, when these are best placed in the <head> of your document..
anyway, good luck, I love yoga sites in general and, look forward to seeing the finished article
I have attached an example of what I am trying to achieve using html/css (if you cannot see the image it is: first name and surname, then second line is job description). I would like the all the text (both lines) to be forced justified (left and right) within a div but I am not sure if it is possible. I have tried a few things with no success. I would rather not use an image, so any idea would be greatly appreciated.
Browsers generally do a crap job at full justification. If you are a design company using this to promote yourself, I'd avoid it.
Also, it only works on paragraphs of text, not single lines.
You can try tweaking the CSS letter spacing to get the effect you're looking for.
Use text-align-last: justify:
.justified {
text-align: justify;
text-align-last: justify;
}
.justified:after {
content: ".";
display: inline-block;
width: 100%;
height: 0;
visibility: hidden;
}

Since you only want to style the title, you can create specific styles for it. Try combining font-size with letter-spacing until you get the effect you want to achieve.
Text align: justified is for a different purpose, it's meant for paragraphs (or long blocks of text). If you don't have enough text to reach the end of the line, it doesn't work.
