The problem is, when there's lot of text in any tab, it's end part is not hidden when you switch to another tab.
For example, in the code given above - the end contents of Tab1 can be seen even when you switch to other tabs.
In another worse case, if more tabs have lot of text - then the contents overlap.
How can this be solved?
One way to solve this is to increase min-height in the tabview class.
But in my application the tab contents are generated in real-time (from some web service), and I don't have idea about their size.
Note: The code works only in non-IE browser
Just add
.tabview > div > div
{
overflow: auto;
}
Solves both the problems. The end text is no longer visible and even with a lot of content, it does not overlap.
Fiddle
If you're using this on an actual website, you definitely don't want to use this pure CSS solution. Beyond the fact that it won't work properly in IE, the fact that your page moves when you switch tabs is really going to be a turnoff to your visitors.
If you were to try and make this work in IE, you'd have to rely on a Javascript solution. If you're already relying on a Javascript solution to fix the tabs, you might as well use javascript to power your tabs.
Please, check out jQuery UI Tabs. A much, much better solution.

This question already has an answer here:
fixed position header overlapping
(1 answer)
Closed 3 years ago.
Ok so first things first. I have a navigation bar at the top of my page, and I've set it's position property to fixed so that it stays on screen all the time.
The problem is that as soon as i did that the div below it shifted upwards going underneeth the nav element.
I have searched about this topic and found only solutions that involved setting the position property of the above div as relative. But doing so the navigation bar doesn't stay there, it moves with the rest of the page when scrolling down.
This is the code:
* {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
.nav-bar {
position: fixed;
overflow: hidden;
width: 90%;
height: 30px;
background: #006666;
z-index: 1;
color: #fff;
}
.content {
position: relative;
background: #aaa;
color: #fff;
}
<body>
<nav class="nav-bar">Navigation bar</nav>

I've tried different combinations of positions of both elements but none of them worked as i wanted.
Here is the fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/e1nbxj8v/
Add padding-top:30px of .content
.content {
position: relative;
background: #aaa;
color: #fff;
padding-top:30px;
}
https://jsfiddle.net/lalji1051/yafeu1x7/
Have you consider adding margin-top: 30px; to content and nav making top: 0; ?
https://jsfiddle.net/dv7pyh92/1/
I recommend you rather use a very simple CSS grid:
grid-template-rows: 30px calc(100vh - 30px);
* {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
.nav-bar {
width: 90%;
height: 100%;
background: #006666;
color: #fff;
}
.content {
background: #aaa;
color: #fff;
height: 100%;
overflow: auto;
}
body {
display: grid;
grid-template-rows: 30px calc(100vh - 30px);
}

Is it possible to force vertical scrollbar to have less than 100% height of scrollable div it's part of with pure CSS and for all modern browsers except IE?
So far all I came up with is webkit-only solution with it's ::-webkit-scrollbar CSS selectors, and trick for custom buttons height, like so:
.parent {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
border: 1px solid #000000;
box-sizing: border-box;
overflow-y: scroll;
}
.child {
height: 200%;
width: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
}
.parent::-webkit-scrollbar {
width: 12px;
}
.parent::-webkit-scrollbar-track {
border: 1px solid #000000;
}
.parent::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb {
background: #FF0000;
}
.parent::-webkit-scrollbar-button {
background: transparent;
height: 25%;
}

I tried to trick .parent with transform: scale in only one direction, so to shrink parent and grow content with same value, like so:
.parent {
transform: scale(0.5, 1);
}
.child {
transform: scale(2, 1);
}
... but it doesn't work, as child can't extend parent's dimensions without position absolute, which makes it invisible for parent, and scrollbar unnecessary.
If there is any other way around, I'm all ears, as I prefer CSS over additional JS plugins / librariers / packages.
It's CSS-only question. I know there are JS plugins that can create whatever scrollbar I want.
You can use ::-webkit-scrollbar-track-piece to customize the top-most layer of the the progress bar. In this case it will not be on 100% of the parent height.
.parent {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
border: 1px solid #000000;
box-sizing: border-box;
overflow-y: scroll;
}
.child {
height: 200%;
width: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
}
.parent::-webkit-scrollbar {
width: 12px;
}
.parent::-webkit-scrollbar-track {
/*border: 1px solid #000000;*/
}
.parent::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb {
background: #FF0000;
}
.parent::-webkit-scrollbar-button {
background: transparent;
/*height: 25%;*/
}
/* this will do the trick */
.parent::-webkit-scrollbar-track-piece {
margin-top: 1rem;
margin-bottom: 1rem;
border: 1px solid #000000;
}

I need to do something like this:
A vertical line with text on the left and on the right.
I looked How to make a vertical line in HTML
I though about making a vertical line and then use border-left and border-right
But I don't see how to do it in pratic.
I made a very basic example, you might have to modify the #content rule for the size you need:
HTML
<div id="content">
<div id="text">

I have in some div long text and I would like to display only 3 lines from the text and when somebody click on the "read more", the whole text should be shown.
How to make this "read more" option in html/css?
One method would be to set the div's height to be three times its line-height, and set overflow: hidden.
You can then change its height to "auto" in the event handler for displaying the rest of the content:
document.querySelector('button').addEventListener('click', function() {
document.querySelector('#content').style.height= 'auto';
this.style.display= 'none';
});
body {
font: 14px verdana;
}
#content {
overflow: hidden;
height: 3.6em;
line-height: 1.2em;
width: 200px;
}
<div id="content">

</div>
<button>Read more</button>
You could also do this completely in CSS by using an adjacent sibling selector:
body {
font: 14px verdana;
}
#content {
overflow: hidden;
height: 3.6em;
line-height: 1.2em;
width: 200px;
}
#more:checked + div {
height: auto;
}
<label>
<input id="more" type="checkbox">Read more
<div id="content">

</label>
You can do this by first setting the height of the box to a specific size and keep the overflow hidden. Then use a button and js event to handle this .
<div id = "content">
your test will come here.

<button type="button"
onclick ="document.getElementById('content').style.height='auto'">
Read more
</button>
</div>
Your css file should contain this.
#content {
overflow: hidden;
height: 3em;
line-height: 1em;
}
I was looking for read-more-possibility made only by html and css, too. The best idea for me was that with the adjacent sibling selector.
I changed what you read above in a certain way. First there is normal text. That stops at a senseful point, not counting the lines. Sometimes it can be one line, sometimes 4. After that I can expand it.
In css I wrote the first part, the second in html
body {
font: 20px verdana;
}
.content {
overflow: hidden;
height: 0em;
line-height: 1.2em;
width: 100%;
}
.more:checked + div {
height: auto;
}

I'm trying to make a design for my homepage, where i have a top with banner and menu, a bottom and a contentarea which is made of three divs that is next to each other.
I want different stuff in the left one or only use this as a spacer.
The right column will have some banners in it for non-profit commercials.
The middle column will have lots of content and this content can be very long or short and i want this content to only be in this column and not float to the sides and therefore i need the design to be somewhat dynamic on heights. What is really the problem is that my container wont move with that extended content in the middle...
Edit:
I have updated the example so it more clearly shows whats i want.
I want all content in the middle region and some other stuff to the left and right and this stuff in the middle can get very long therefore i want that the middle column shall decide on how long the container has to be - if that is possible? If i make the container move, then the left and right column will move with it.
I'm sorry, my english is very limited.
