I try to have a few hours own layout, but I still have a problem. I would like make: http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/1243/schemal.png
I would like that the body was flexible. Max width page 900px. I can't cope with float and clear.
Live example: http://jsfiddle.net/eTEz2/
Thanks for help!
After rearranging the HTML slightly (moving all of the sidebar items to line up with one another - oneleft, oneright, twoleft etc...), I've recreated that effect, assuming you want the body to contain the floated items, and spill out below, with this jsfiddle.
If that's not the effect you wanted, I would suggest you rearrange your HTML to have three columns, like below:
<div class="column-left"></div>
<div class="column"></div>
<div class="column-right"></div>
And within these divs, you can have whatever elements you want, and you would only need to float the left and right columns here.
Try to chop it up into different partitions first: header, footer, 2 sides and 1 content. The sides consist of 3 elements again (probably divs in your case).
<div ></div> //top bar
<div id="left column" style="width:100px;float:left;">
<div style="float:left; width:100px;">//left boxes
<div style="float:left; width:100px;">
<div style="float:left; width:100px;">
<div style="float:left; width:100px;">
</div>
<div id="center column" style="float:left; width:500px;">
<div style="float:left; width:490px;"> //center box
</div>
<div id="rightcolumn" style="float:left; width:100px;">
<div style="float:left; width:100px;">//right boxes
<div style="float:left; width:100px;">
<div style="float:left; width:100px;">
<div style="float:left; width:100px;">
</div>
you can also use the css property height:190px; to set various heights. hope this helps you out.

I have some divs which don't behave like I wish.
<div class="list-product-with-border">
<div style="width:80px; display:inline-block;">img</div>
<div style="display:inline-block;"><b>Productname</b></div>
<div style="float:right; width:80px;">
<div>
<button id="editBtn">Edit</button>
</div>
<div>
<button id="removeBtn">Remove</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
JSFiddle link
Two problems here:
the bordered divs is not high enough: the 'remove' button is not visually in the bordered div
When the 'product name' is longer, the buttons are rendered under the div with the product name. I would like the product name to be over multiple lines when this happens. The three divs should always be next to eachother.
The first and last div has a fixed width, the middle div (product name) should stretch with the size of the bordered div
Personally I'd use a table for this. Each row of the table is an item, and you have a column of images, a column of names, and a column of actions. Is this any different to the tables used for invoices?
I can't quite get the effect you want, but improvements can be made: a floated element should come before the elements that are to go around it - so in this case, it should be the first thing inside the list-product-with-border container. Also, you should either have an element with clear:both at the end of the container, or set the container to have overflow:hidden to force the floated element to be inside.
Do you want it like this?
Here's the Fiddle
<style>
.list-product-with-border {
padding:3px;
width:60%;
border:1px solid black;
overflow: hidden;
height: auto;
}
</style>
And now the HTML
<div class="list-product-with-border">
<div style="width:80px; display:inline-block;">img</div>
<div style="display:inline-block; overflow:hidden; height: auto;"><b>Productname Is the right choice baby, as you can see its just done</b></div>
<div style="float:right; width:180px;margin-top: 10px;">
<div style="float: left;">
<button id="editBtn">Edit</button>
</div>
<div style="float: left;">
<button id="removeBtn">Remove</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
You must use display:table-cell instead of display:table-column and remove float:left for .divCell.
And add this style:
.headRow{
display:table-row;
}
I have the following split among 3 main div to be side by side. The very left div I want it to take up 60% of the screen and the rest 2 (description and resource) to take each 20%. When I run this all 3 are overlapping on the left portion. Below is my codes.
<div id="left" style="position:absolute;top:0px;left:0px;width:60%;height:100%;background:#e6e6e6;">
<div id="map" style="position:absolute;top:0px;left:0px;width:60%;height:400px">Map goes here.</div>
<div id="details" style="position:absolute;top:400px;left:0px;width:60%;height:400px">Details</div>
</div>
<div id="description" style="position:absolute;top:0px;width:20%;height:100%;background:#ffffff;">
</div>
<div id="resource" style="position:absolute;top:0px;width:20%;height:100%;background:#ffffff;">
</div>
They are overlapping because you've given them all absolute position and left 0. Absolute position removes the element from the normal flow of the page and puts it exactly where you indicate using the top/left/right/bottom properties. They will overlap as long as they have the same parent and same position properties.
Absolute position and left being 0 is making them overlap.
Please use css
see solution : http://jsfiddle.net/thecbuilder/vZ77e/
html
<div id="left">
<div id="map">Map goes here.</div>
<div id="details">Details</div>
</div>
<div id="description">description</div>
<div id="resource">resource</div>
css
#left, #description, #resource{
display:inline;
float:left;
height:100%;
}
#left{
width:60%;
background:#e6e6e6;
}
#description, #resource{
width:20%;
}
They are overlapping because you are using position absolute. instead place the divs at the top of the html page and do this instead:
<div id="left" style="float:left;width:60%;height:100%;background:#e6e6e6;">
<div id="map" style="float:left;width:60%;height:400px">Map goes here.</div>
<div id="details" style="float:left;left:0px;width:60%;height:400px">Details</div>
</div>
<div id="description" style="float:left;width:20%;height:100%;background:#ffffff;">
</div>
<div id="resource" style="float:left;width:20%;height:100%;background:#ffffff;">
</div>
This will place the divs beside each other
Is it possible to do this with CSS? Given the following HTML:
<div class="main-container">
<div class="left">
...
</div>
<div class="right">
<div class="top">
...
</div>
<div class="bottom">
dynamic content
</div>
</div>
</div>
I want bottom to scroll if it overflows the space between top and the bottom of main-container.
How can this be done without specifying the height of bottom?
I would prefer not to specify height on other elements either if possible. It doesn't right now, but top could have dynamic content as well.
The HTML above can change however necessary; what I require is the end result of a left column, a right column, and the bottom portion of the right column scrolling if its context exceeds the available space in the main container.
In the end, you'll have to specify some kind of limits (either height or max-height) to your elements in order to know if the content goes beyond them.
Once you have those dimensions set up, overflow:auto; will show you scrollbars when you need them.
Hope this is what you are looking for:
<div class="main-container">
<div class="left" style="float: left; width:33%">
...
</div>
<div class="right" style="float: right; width:66%">
<div class="top" style="height: auto;">
...
</div>
<div class="bottom" style="max-height: {height of main-cont.}; overflow-y: scroll;">
dynamic content
</div>
</div>
</div>
What I am trying to accomplish is having a fixed-width first div and a fluid second div which will fill up the rest width of the parent div's width.
<div class='clearfix'>
<div style='float:left; width:100px;'>some content</div>
<div style='float:left'>some more content</div>
</div>
and on this one everything seems alright and fluid.
<div style='display:table'>
<div style='display:table-cell; width:100px;'>some content</div>
<div style='display:table-cell'>some more content</div>
</div>
I want to go ahead with the second one but i feel like the second example will give me headaches in the future.
Could you offer some suggestions or insights?
display: table-cell is perfectly fine to use, with just one downside..
It doesn't work in IE7 (or IE6, but who cares?): http://caniuse.com/#search=css-table
If you don't need to support IE7, then feel free to use it.
IE7 still has some usage, but you should check your Analytics, and then make a decision.
To answer your specific use case, you can do it without display: table-cell, provided that you don't need the height to adjust based on content:
http://jsfiddle.net/g6yB4/
<div class='clearfix'>
<div style='float:left; width:100px; background:red'>some content</div>
<div style='overflow:hidden; background:#ccc'>some more content</div>
</div>
(why overflow: hidden? With: http://jsfiddle.net/g6yB4/3/ vs without: http://jsfiddle.net/g6yB4/4/)
You could do something like this. It puts your main content first. You can use a vertically repeating css background image on your main "content" container to create the illusion of a background running all the way down the left column.
<div id="content" style="clear:both;">
<div id="mainwrap" style="float:left; width:100%;">
<div id="main" style="margin-left:100px">
Main content here
</div>
</div>
<div id="leftnav" style="float:left; width:100px; margin-left:-100%;">
Left content here
</div>
</div>
To extend to a 3-column with fluid center:
<div id="content" style="clear:both;">
<div id="mainwrap" style="float:left; width:100%;">
<div id="main" style="margin-left:100px; margin-right:100px;">
Main content here
</div>
</div>
<div id="leftnav" style="float:left; width:100px; margin-left:-100%;">
Left content here
</div>
<div id="rightnav" style="float:left; width:100px; margin-left:-100px;">
Right content here
</div>
</div>
To get the first example working, you should also float the containing div, this will make sure that both of the elements within sit as you would expect within it. Not really sure what you mean by 'is a pain', though?
One down side of using table-row (very related to the OP) is that you can't use margin/padding on a row.
I Need the right Column elements to be flush with the javascript back button image. Not sure what the deal is, I have tried clear left, clear right, and clear both.

Any Help Would be Great.
Change the code which looks like this:
<div class="package-back-button1"></div>
<div class="clearfloat-left"></div>
<div class="win-this-package1"></div>
into this:
<div style="float: left">
<div class="package-back-button1"></div>
<div class="win-this-package1"></div>
</div>
So, remove the .clearfloat-left div, and enclose the two items inside a div with float: left.
A kinda yucky (but easy) fix is to do this:
On .package-right-box1, add margin-top: -89px.
Tested in Firefox, IE7/8.
Here is a solution on jsfiddle. Code is below.
<!--Left Column Boxes-->
<div style="width:50%; float:left">
<div style="background-color:#f00; width:100%">left1</div>
<div style="background-color:#0f0; width:100%;">left2</div>
<div style="background-color:#00f; width:100%;">left3</div>
</div>
<!--Right Column Boxes-->
<div style="float:right; width:50%">
<div style="background-color:#aaa; width:100%;">right1<br />
<div style="background-color:#ff0; width:100%;">right2</div>
</div>
<div style="background-color:#0ff; width:100%;">right3</div>
</div>
Also, be aware that your second div on the right was nested within the top-right div. I'm not sure that was intended, but am just pointing it out.
