In the following code, the left both divs have different heights (not fixed). Is there a way to make height of div with the less height equal to the height of div with high height without using the CSS table property or javascript?
PS. There is no reason not to use table property, I just want to know if theres any alternative.
<div class="wrap">
<div class="left">less content</div>
<div class="right">more content</div>
</div>
CSS:
.wrap{
overflow: hidden;
background: green;
width: 100px;
margin: 30px 100px;
}
.left{
background: yellow;
width: 50px;
float:left;
overflow: hidden;
}
.right{
background: brown;
width: 50px;
float:left;
overflow: hidden;
}

I just tackled this issue today. Checkout the following resource: http://www.vanseodesign.com/css/equal-height-columns/
I like the last suggestion, which basically creates the illusion of equal heights.
Html
<div id="container-outer">
<div id="container-inner">
<div id="sidebar">
<p>Sidebar</p>
</div>
<div id="content">
<p>Main content</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS
#container-outer {
float:left;
overflow: hidden;
background: #eee;
}
#container-inner {
float:left;
background: #555;
position: relative;
right:75%;
}
#sidebar {
float: left;
width: 25%;
position: relative;
left: 75%;
}
#content {
float: left;
width: 75%;
position: relative;
left: 75%

Here's a simplified version of my homepage:
<div class="main">
<div class="content"> all the content of my website </div>
<div class="nav"> fixed on the screen and always visible </div>
</div>
And here's the corresponding css:
.main {
max-width: 500px;
height: 2000px;
margin: auto;
background-color: grey;
}
.nav {
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
background-color: blue;
position:fixed;
right: 0; /* that's the issue */
}
I'd like the fixed element to stay within it's parent (touching the right edge of its parent). But right now it's touching the right border of the screen.
Any idea how to fix this? Thanks!
You can add an extra item to simulate the properties of the main container, try this:
.main {
max-width: 500px;
height: 2000px;
margin: auto;
background-color: grey;
}
.nav {
position:fixed;
max-width:500px;
width:100%;
}
.nav > div{
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
background-color: blue;
float:right;
}
<div class="main">
<div class="content">all the content of my website</div>
<div class="nav"><div>fixed on the screen and always visible</div></div>
</div>
position: fixed is described as, "The element is positioned relative to the browser window". You can use Javascript to accomplish this effect, here is how you do it with jQuery, for example:
$(window).scroll(function() {
var y = $(window).scrollTop();
$(".nav").css('top', y);
});
.main {
max-width: 500px;
height: 4000px;
margin: auto;
background-color: grey;
position: relative;
}
.nav {
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
background-color: red;
position: absolute;
right: 0; /* that's the issue */
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="main">
<div class="content"> parent </div>
<div class="nav"> fixed to parent width </div>
</div>
I'm trying to set these divs to align like this:
but they end up either overlapping eachother (.title takes full width of container) or underneath eachother. Ideas?
.wrapper{
display: table;
float: left;
width: 1000px;
height: 200px;
}
.pic{
float: left;
width: 100%;
height: 20%;
}
.title{
width: 100%;
height: 20%;
}
.content{
width: 100%;
height: 20%;
}
.footer{
width: 100%;
height: 20%;
}
HTML:
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="pic"><img src="..."></div>
<div class="title"><p>title</p></div>
<div class="content"><p>lorem ipsum</p></div>
<div class="footer"></div>
</div>
JS FIDDLE: http://jsfiddle.net/mmb84836/
As per the Best Practice:
Put Pic in one Box and the other three Boxes on right in one Box and use "float:left or **display:inline-block**for those.
Here is the code for the same:
HTML
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="leftBox">
<div class="pic">pic</div>
</div>
<div class="rightBox">
<div class="title">title</div>
<div class="content">content</div>
<div class="footer">footer</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS
div {
border:1px solid #000;
}
.wrapper {
display: block; /*Default Property - You Can Remove Also*/
width: 1000px;
height: 200px;
}
.leftBox {
float:left;
width :20%;
height:100%
}
.rightBox {
width :79.5%;
float:left;
height:100%
}
.pic {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.title {
width: 100%;
height: 20%;
}
.content {
width: 100%;
height: 20%;
}
.footer {
width: 100%;
height: 20%;
}
Here is the Working Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/7xLyc3q1/
You've got a lot of answers here, but none of them explain what is actually happening here. When using float, there's something important you need to understand: floated elements are lifted out of the box model and have effectively zero width and height as far as other elements are concerned. There is a workaround for this: by specifying overflow:hidden in the parent element, floated elements will no longer "collapse".
Here's an example that demonstrates this. Notice that the title, content, and footer have a width:100%, and they're only filling the space that is remaining for them -- this is probably what you'd expect to happen. Notice also that there was no need to float them to the right... they take the space that's left.
Try adding float: right to .title, .content, and .footer.
Also it may be worth considering using Foundation or Twitter Bootstrap. Both have grid systems so this would guarantee the divs would resize to fit any size screen.
<div class="wrap">
<div class="pic">pic</div>
<div class="other">oth1</div>
<div class="other">oth2</div>
<div class="other">oth3</div>
</div>
.wrap { width:100; height:200px; }
.pic { float:left; width:29%; height:100%; margin-right:1%; background-color:red; }
.other { float:left; width:70%; height:32%; margin-bottom:0.5%; background-color:green; }
and jsfiddle http://jsfiddle.net/t85kz39a/
Here is one way of doing it if you can specify a width for the image. I assumed that the image would be 200px wide in this demo.
Try the following CSS:
.wrapper{
width: 600px;
height: 200px;
padding-left: 200px;
border: 1px dashed gray;
}
.pic{
float: left;
width: 190px;
margin-left: -200px;
border: 1px dashed blue;
}
.pic img {
display: block;
}
.title{
width: auto;
height: 20%;
border: 1px dotted blue;
}
.content{
width: auto;
height: 20%;
border: 1px dotted blue;
}
.footer{
width: auto;
height: 20%;
border: 1px dotted blue;
}
The trick is to open up a space to place the image. Add a 200px wide left padding to
the .wrapper.
The padding will force .title, .content and .footer to align 200px from the edge
of the wrapper.
For .pic, set the width to 200px (or smaller) and set the left margin to -200px to move
it into the padding area.
Finally, set the correct width for .wrapper, 600px. The overall width of .wrapper
will compute to 800px (600px width + 200px left padding - -200px left margin from the
float).
See demo: http://jsfiddle.net/audetwebdesign/mgg1stmc/
The main benefit of this approach is that you don't need to add any other wrapping
elements. (If you use floats, the extra wrappers are necessary.)
There's a much simpler css-only way without changing your HTML structure:
Demo http://jsfiddle.net/bfhng3a9/
All you need:
.wrapper {
overflow:auto;
text-align:center;
}
.pic {
float: left;
width:20%;
}
.title, .content, .footer {
width:80%;
float:right;
clear: right;
}
You can use this code and it is working according to your design.

I am trying to create a page layout something like this.
This is my HMTL structure -
<div id="content-three-cols">
<div class="leftcol">

<div class="cols-content">
<div class="banner">
</div>
<div class="two-cols">
<div class="rightcol">

<div class="middlecol">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
This is my CSS code so far -
.leftcol {
display: inline;
float: left;
min-height: 500px;
width: 180px;
background: #34ab2b;
}
.banner {
background: #ffe400;
border-bottom: 1px solid #DDDDDD;
float: left;
width: 750px;
height: 150px;
}
.middlecol {
width: 600px;
min-height: 600px;
background: #2b73ab;
}
.rightcol {
width: 150px;
min-height: 500px;
background: #b2540f;
float: right;
}
Adding this styles I couldn't get my expecting output. Instead my desire result this code create a mess layout for me. Can anybody tell my how can I figure this out.
This is JsFiddle
Thank you.
Quite simple really, here is a quick demo i made, i will explain everything in a second.
Demo
HTML:
<div class="left"></div>
<div class="head"></div>
<div class="center"></div>
<div class="right"></div>
CSS:
body, html{
height:100%;
}
.left, .right, .head, .center{
float:left; // Float all the containers to the left so have a `inline` effect
}
.left{
height:100%;
width:25%; // Full width minus right and center width
background:orange;
}
.head{
background:red;
height:10%; // Height of header
width:75%; // Full width minus left sidebar
}
.center{
width:50%; // Full width minus both sidebar's width
background:skyblue;
height: 90%; // Full height minus header height
}
.right{
width:25%; // Full width minus center and left width
background:green;
height:90%; // Full height minus header height
}
also note, you may need to have a Clearfix handy seeing as a lot of elements are floating in thin air.
Happy coding :)
Clearfix...
Well take a look at this fiddle, everything is working fine
http://jsfiddle.net/mqzJN/
Now if we add a float to the link like this
http://jsfiddle.net/mqzJN/1
Then you can see the background is gone, because the <div> doesn't have any height any more because the link is floating in thin air.
So you use a clearfix to fix this, like in this fiddle
http://jsfiddle.net/mqzJN/2/
So any element that has a float you might wan't to add the clearfix class to the container of that element like in the last fiddle example.
There you go! (http://jsfiddle.net/aV2Dn/)

<div id="left_column"></div>

Any idea how to make the middle sections in this code below (jsFiddle here) adjust to the height of the actual container without specifying fixed values or Javascript? In this fiddle I tried setting absolute and relative for the container but the page always shows vertical scrollbar as the height of the container exceeds the height of the actual page.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<style>
body { margin: 0; height:100%;}
#mainContainer { position: absolute; right: 4%; left: 4%; height: 100%; }
#headerContainer { width: 100%; position: relative; background: #323232; color: white; height: 30px; }
#middleContainer { height: 100%; }
#leftSection { position: absolute; float: left; width: 175px; background: #71ABD1; height: 100%; overflow: auto; color: black; }
#middleSection { position: absolute; height: 100%; background-color: yellow; left: 175px; right: 175px; color: black; }
#rightSection { float: right; height: 100%; width: 175px; border-left: 1px dotted black; background: red; color: black; }
#footerContainer { position: relative; width: 100%; height: 30px; background: #323232; color: white; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="mainContainer">
<div id="headerContainer">
headerContainer
</div>
<div id="middleContainer">
<div id="leftSection">
<div style="margin-top: 30px;">leftSection</div>
</div>
<div id="middleSection">
<div style="margin-top: 30px;">middleSection</div>
</div>
<div id="rightSection">
<div style="margin-top: 30px;">rightSection</div>
</div>
</div>
<div id="footerContainer">
footerContainer
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
This seems to do what you want:
http://jsfiddle.net/grc4/XTQuT/2/
Absolute positioning takes #middleContainer and #footerContainer out of the normal flow. #middleContainer is forced to take up the size of the whole page, but is given a margin to allow room for the header and footer. #footerContainer is fixed to the bottom of the page with bottom: 0. The left and right columns can then just use height: 100% to take up the right space, but the middle column still needs absolute positioning to force it to only use the remaining space.

Specify the height of both #footerContainer and #headerContainer as percentage instead of pixels, as you do the same for others div. In this fiddle I gave 10% to header and footer, and 80% to all intermediante divs.
I'm trying to build a liquid layout with two columns and a fixed footer at the bottom. I already take some help here, and I have one example above.
http://jsfiddle.net/kpDDM/18/
The problem on my example is that it has a fixed height. When I move to 100% heigh on my content div, the content collaps.
Do you need something like this : http://jsfiddle.net/kpDDM/44/
HTML
<div class="all">
<div class="content">
<div class="left"> </div>
<div class="right"> </div>
</div>
<div class="footer"></div>
</div>
CSS
.all {
position: relative;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
body,html{
height:100%;
}
.content {
display:inline-block;
height: 90%;
width: 100%;
}
.left {
display: inline-block;
float: left;
width: 60%;
height: 100%;
background-color: red;
}
.right {
display:inline-block;
float: left;
width: 40%;
height: 100%;
background-color: blue;
}
.footer {
display: inline-block;
width: 100%;
height: 10%;
background-color: green;
}
Explanation
The problem is that the body tag does not have 100% itself. You have to assign that to body and then it'll work. In the above example I assumed that the content + footer share 100% of the height. 90% + 10%
