Removing ul indentation with CSS
(3 answers)
Closed 4 years ago.
Do you know why I can't remove the margin from my <li> elements? The browser always adds the specific margin for my list, even when I write the code a specific margin. Here is the CSS and HTML code:
#NavLeftList {
height: 57 % ;
width: 15 % ;
position: absolute;
top: 23 % ;
border-style: none;
background: url(images / heaven.jpg);
margin: 0px
}
#NavLeftList ul {
margin-left: 11 % ;
}
#NavLeftList ul li {
text-align: center;
width: 170px;
list-style-type: none;
text-decoration: none;
margin: 10px 0px 0px 0px;
padding: 1px;
}
#NavLeftList li a {
height: 35px;
padding: 10px 0px 0px 0px;
text-decoration: none;
color: #fff;
background: url(images / tabright.gif);
display: block
}
#NavLeftList li a span {
padding: 0px
}
#NavLeftList li a: hover {
color: #7EC0EE;
}
I haven't pasted the HTML code here since it was appearing strangely.
What you’re seeing isn’t a margin on the lis, it’s padding on the ul.
Zero out the ul’s padding.
try list-style-position:inside; on the li. It's probably leaving space that would be filled by the bullet even though you've set list-style-type:none;
Try setting
body{margin: 0;}
or find the containing element for NavLeftList and set that element's margin to 0 as well.
Try following CSS for UL
ul { list-style: none; }
Try making use of a reset.css file which will reset all "default" (and thus different) implementations of paddings and margins in the different browsers.

Border-radius in percentage (%) and pixels (px) or em
(3 answers)
Closed last month.
I want my button to have a shape like it has on stack overflow Products button.enter image description here
I tried border radius but it wasn't big enough. I tried to search for another options but I didn't found any or didn't understand.
This is my CSS
nav > ul > li:hover {
background-color: #dfdfe2;
color: #1b1b32;
cursor: pointer;
border-radius: 40%;
}
li > a {
color: inherit;
text-decoration: none;
}
nav > ul {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
padding: 0.2%;
margin: 0.7%;
What I got from the code
You need to add padding and border-radius as shown below and remove border radius which you have given on :hover
nav > ul > li {
border-radius: 50px;
padding: 10px 15px;
}

Image inside div has extra space below the image
(10 answers)
Closed 6 years ago.
I can't figure out how to remove this space from my navbar and the picture..
The CSS code I have for the navbar and the image is:
a {
text-decoration: none;
color: white;
padding-right: 5px;
padding-left: 5px;
padding-top: 0;
}
a:hover {
color: black;
}
header {
background-color: #C0C0C0;
margin: 3px 60px 0;
}
li {
display: inline;
border-right: 1px solid black;
border-left: 1px solid black;
border-bottom: 1px solid black;
border-top-left-radius: 0px;
border-top-right-radius: 0px;
border-bottom-left-radius: 5px;
border-bottom-right-radius: 5px;
}
nav {
position: relative;
text-align: center;
}
ul {
list-style-type: none;
}
#bikebanner {
position: relative;
left: 65px;
}
#bikebanner is the image id.
And the html goes like so:
<header>
<img src="images/bicyclebanner.jpg" id="bikebanner" alt="People riding bikes." title="Biking">
<h1 id="pagetitle">Cycling Tours</h1>
<nav>
<ul>
<li>About Us</li>
<li>Ask Us</li>
<li>Destinations</li>
<li>FAQ</li>
<li>Reviews</li>
<li>Seminars</li>
<li>Trip Prep</li>
</ul>
</nav>
</header>
Looking for a universal fit as I have other things with white space between them as well.
Thanks.
Try adding this to your css:
img{
display:block;
}
img is of type inline-block which adds a little space which is hard to find.
setting it to block should fix it.
what space you are talking about ?
Keep in mind h1 by default has white space around it
every h1-h6 tag has a margin top and bottom by default. i think if you overwrite this in your css you have what you want.
h1 {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
look at this jsfiddle https://jsfiddle.net/zn7wtdLp/
This drives a lot of people crazy initially and the solution is not obvious, but images, lists and list items end up with a small space like this due to the font size inherited by or set on the img or ul. If you do nothing, the img and ul inherit the body font size (often 14px - 16px) with results in this 0.25rem (or 3.5px - 4px) space issue.
Nav Items
There are two popular solutions:
Float your list items left and make sure that you add a clearfix to your ul or its container, or
My preferred solution: Set the font-size on the ul to 0 and then the font-size on the li to 1rem (or whatever).
So my CSS would look something like this:
ul {
font-size: 0;
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
li {
display: inline-block;
font-size: 1rem;
}
Images
If you set the image to display: block, this would kill the space below the image. This comes with its own caveats as well. For example, if you want it centered after you switch it to display: block;, you'll need to set the side margins to auto. Something like this:
header img {
display: block;
margin: 0 auto;
}
The problem is display:inline. This treats the elements like text, so if you have
<li>...</li>
<li>...</li>
you have the problem you mentioned, because the linebreaks cause a space.
Try to put your list elements like this:
<li>...</li><li>...</li>

So, I'm working on quickly building a website theme (Wordpress) with the aid of Twitter bootstrap, and I'm running into a problem.
I've got a header thrown together, and I've got this weird gap going on inside the "pull-right" section, not sure why:
I'm not sure what the deal is, I want them sitting on the line right at the same height of the text on the left.
Anyway, I've got the following relevant sections of code:
(HTML for header section):
<!-- Header -->
<div class="row header-container">
<div class="col-md-8 col-md-offset-2">
<div class="pull-left">
<h3>CharlesBaker.net</h3>
</div>
<div class="pull-right">
<ul>
<li>Test1</li>
<li>Test2</li>
<li>Test3</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
(CSS for the same section):
.header-container {
padding-top: 50px;
background-color: #c0c0c0;
border-bottom: 5px solid #880000;
}
.header-container h3 {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
font-family: 'Montserrat', serif;
}
.header-container ul {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
.header-container ul li {
display: inline;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
.header-container a {
padding: 3px;
color: black;
}
.header-container a:hover {
text-decoration: none;
background-color: #880000;
color: white;
}
Not sure what the issue is, unless it's related to the fact that I'm using a tag instead of just styling a <span> or something, but since I removed the padding/margin using CSS, I wouldn't think that would be the problem.
Any help would be great. The idea is that when I hover over the links on the right, that they're enclosed in a scarlet colored box that "extends" from the 5px bottom border.
Thanks in advance!
Are you looking for this?
You need to set your .header-container as display: inline-block to align all elements inside. Therefore, you need to float your pull div elements (float and left).
Just one last change, set the width size of your header: I set 100%, but you can set whatever you like :)
CSS:
.header-container {
padding-top: 50px;
background-color: #c0c0c0;
border-bottom: 5px solid #880000;
width: 100%;
display: inline-block;
}
.pull-left {
float: left;
}
.pull-right {
float: right;
}
There is a particular line-height property for h3 tag with bootstrap.
h1, h2, h3 {
line-height: 40px;//line 760
}
So you will have to add style to negotiate this additional height.
Also another set for your ul as :
ul, ol {
margin: 0 0 10px 25px; //line 812
}
Solution :
Over-ride the ul margin as follows :
.pull-right ul{
margin: 0;
}
Over-ride the line-height for the h3 as follows :
.pull-left h3{
line-height:20px;
}
First one is pretty straight forward and gives you correct alignment straighaway. Second solution will need you to work some more with tweaking the negative-margins for .pull-right.

How to grow the li elements in the way, that all the four li elements consume the complete 900 pixels space and add a little gap between the elements. And why is there already a gap now - I have none defined?
<html><head><title></title></head>
<style type="text/css">
#box { width: 900px; border: solid 1px black; }
#menu {
display: block;
position: relative;
width: 900px;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: center;
}
#menu li {
display: inline;
position: relative;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#menu li a, #menu li a:visited {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
padding: 10px;
background-color: yellow;
text-decoration: none;
}
#menu li a:hover, #menu li a:active {
background-color: green;
text-decoration: none;
color: white;
}
</style>
<body>
<div id="box">
<ul id="menu">
<li>Mozilla Firefox & Thunderbird</li>
<li>OpenOffice</li>
<li>Microsoft Office Visio</li>
<li>Apache OpenOffice 3.0.0</li>
</ul>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Inline blocks behave weirdly in the fact that they render whitespace. The gap shown between items is the new line characters in your code. You can either remove the new line characters as I have shown in the code below (or at this fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/UyQEK/). If you want to keep the HTML clean, and not have to do this removal of whitespace, use float left on the elements instead of display: inline-block and do a clearfix on the parent to set the height.
<div id="box">
<ul id="menu">
<li>Mozilla Firefox & Thunderbird</li><li>OpenOffice</li><li>Microsoft Office Visio</li><li>Apache OpenOffice 3.0.0</li>
</ul>
</div>
EDIT
Made the classic mistake of forgetting to check to ensure I answered the whole question. I have updated the fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/UyQEK/1/ to show the actual answer to utilize the entire bar rather then just get rid of your spaces. The basis of the solution was floating the elements and giving them each a width of 25% and applying a clearfix to the ul element.
Hope that solves the whole thing this time.
I am trying to create a very simple "no-frills" tab using html & css. For this, I have a bunch of li elements and inside each of these, there is a "a href" element. Now, when i look at the output in IE & Firefox (after setting the styles to make the list display horizontally with proper border and everything), I can see that the "a" element overflows the "li" element. How do i make the "li" element resize based on the "a" element?
CSS and html as follows
#tabs ul
{
list-style:none;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
#tabs li
{
display: inline;
border: solid;
border-width: 1px 1px 1px 1px;
margin: 0 0.5em 0 0;
background-color: #3C7FAF;
}
#tabs li a
{
padding: 0 1em;
text-decoration: none;
color:White;
font-family: Calibri;
font-size: 18pt;
height: 40px;
}
<div id="tabs">
<ul>
<li><span>One</span></li>
<li><span>Two</span></li>
<li><span>Three</span></li>
</ul>
</div>
You forgot the "#" in the CSS declarations. You've an id="tabs" in you html code which needs to be referenced as
#tabs {
....
}
in the CSS. The rest is fine-tuning ;)
And try
#tabs {
display: inline-block;
}
instead of the display: inline;
Try settings the the display on the li element as "inline-block".
http://www.quirksmode.org/css/display.html
give style to anchor as
display:block
I give
display:block
to both the li and a tags. Then float the li. You can add this code to make the li enclose the a completely:
overflow: hidden; zoom: 1; word-wrap: break-word;
This will clear anything inside.
You could also simply give your li's some padding:
#tabs li {
padding: 8px 0 0;
}
Inline-block is a good way to go (as suggested).
But if you want this to be cross-browser, you need to add som CSS-hacking "magic" :)
One very good tutorial on the subject is http://blog.mozilla.com/webdev/2009/02/20/cross-browser-inline-block/
Using the method from that article, you'd end up with the following CSS:
/* cross browser inline-block hack for tabs */
/* adapted from:
/* http://blog.mozilla.com/webdev/2009/02/20/cross-browser-inline-block/ */
#tabs ul,
#tabs li,
#tabs li a {
display: -moz-inline-stack;
display: inline-block;
zoom: 1;
*display: inline;
vertical-align: bottom;
margin:0; padding:0; /* reset ul and li default settings */
}
/* The rest is "window dressing" (i.e. basically the tab styles from your CSS) */
#tabs li a {
margin: 0 0.5em 0 0;
background-color: #3C7FAF;
padding: 0 1em;
text-decoration: none;
color:white;
font-family: Calibri;
font-size: 18pt;
height: 40px;
}
Simply display:inline-block on both li & a did the trick for me man. Lists stretched to accommodate whatever I did with the links.
