I'm struggling to create the layout I want as it looks like I need .col-3 to merge with .col-1 on desktops, but I don't know how to do it - is it possible?
Desktop
Mobile
| .col-1 |
| .col-2 |
| .col-3 |
This is my HTML:
<div class="grid-wrapper">
<div class="grid-items col-1">

And this is my CSS:
.grid-wrapper {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 260px auto 23% 5%;
column-gap: 3%;
}
.col-1 {
grid-column-start: 2;
grid-column-end: 3;
grid-row-start: 1;
grid-row-end: 2;
}
.col-2 {
grid-column-start: 3;
grid-column-end: 4;
grid-row-start: 1;
grid-row-end: 3;
}
.col-3 {
grid-column-start: 2;
grid-column-end: 3;
grid-row-start: 2;
grid-row-end: 3;
}
#media screen and (max-width: 1090px) {
.grid-wrapper {
grid-template-columns: 260px auto;
}
.col-1, .col-2, .col-3 {
grid-column-start: 2;
grid-column-end: 3;
}
.col-1 {
grid-row-start: 1;
grid-row-end: 2;
}
.col-2 {
grid-row-start: 2;
grid-row-end: 3;
}
.col-3 {
grid-row-start: 3;
grid-row-end: 4;
}
}
#media screen and (max-device-width: 480px) {
.grid-wrapper {
grid-template-columns: auto;
}
.col-1, .col-2, .col-3 {
grid-column-start: 1;
grid-column-end: 2;
}
}
You need to set the height of the rows, see snippet below
.grid-wrapper {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 260px auto 23% 5%;
grid-template-rows: min-content 1fr; /* added */
column-gap: 3%;
}
.col-1 {
grid-column-start: 2;
grid-column-end: 3;
grid-row-start: 1;
grid-row-end: 2;
}
.col-2 {
grid-column-start: 3;
grid-column-end: 4;
grid-row-start: 1;
grid-row-end: 3;
}
.col-3 {
grid-column-start: 2;
grid-column-end: 3;
grid-row-start: 2;
grid-row-end: 3;
}
<div class="grid-wrapper">

One option is to use css columns, which might require you to reorder your boxes:
.boxes {
columns: 3;
}
.box {
height: auto;
margin-bottom: 15px;
}
.box-1 {
background: red;
}
.box-2 {

I am aligning three images of equal size within a three-column layout.
This should lead to three images in a row.
It works as expected in IE11, Edge, FF, but Chrome does not what it should: It shows image 1+2 in the first column, image 3 is in the second column.
What is Chrome doing here? If I give the containing div a fixed height of e.g. 120px the three images are aligned as expected, side by side.
Snippet:
.columns {
column-count: 3;
column-gap: 20px;
outline: 1px dashed blue;
width: 640px
}
<div class="columns">
<img src="http://via.placeholder.com/200x100" >
<img src="http://via.placeholder.com/200x100/a00" >

imgs are inline elements by default, so you can give img {display: block;} and it will solve the issue:
.columns {
column-count: 3;
column-gap: 20px;
outline: 1px dashed blue;
width: 640px;
}
img {

That is very interesting, and I can't explain why it behaves that way (other than welcome to cross browser development), but as a quick fix I can tell you if you add the CSS img {display: block} it will work.

How to align text both left and right side equally?Can anyone help me?

In Microsoft Word, and undoubtedly most other (modern) word processors, you can have a "list" of items (I use the term "list" loosely here), with a hanging initial character(s), and then insert a TAB to force the first character of actual text to align with your left margin of the block. E.g. if I had a bunch of symbols as identifiers, I could have:
# Foo bar on a long line
Where this is part of the "#" symbol identifier above
%% And this is a new line broken over many lines, but the
left-most edge still aligns
$__$ Isn't that fine?
I am trying to perform a similar action in HTML5 using CSS. I've found out about indents, a la:
<p style="padding-left: 100px; text-indent: -100px"># Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Aliquam lectus dolor, ultrices at euismod eu, dapibus sit amet mauris. Etiam maximus pulvinar sollicitudin.</p>
However, while the paragraph is left with a hanging indent, the first character of significance ("L" in "Lorem") does not align with the first character of significance when the line wraps. For example, it comes out like this:
# Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
Aliquam lectus dolor, ultrices at euismod eu, dapibus
sit amet mauris. Etiam maximus pulvinar sollicitudin.
When I want it to come out like so:
# Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
Aliquam lectus dolor, ultrices at euismod eu, dapibus
sit amet mauris. Etiam maximus pulvinar sollicitudin.
Looking further I found out about hanging-punctuation, but this does not seem to be supported anywhere; moreover, it is specific to punctuation marks - what if I want to use a letter instead of a symbol?
Any suggestions on how to accomplish this?
Many thanks.
This could be done a few different ways.
One method would be to use the ::before pseudo selector in CSS.
p {
position: relative;
margin: 40px; /* added just to move snippit away from window edges. */ }
/* this applies to all p tags */
p::before {
position: absolute;
left: -30px; /* moves character on top of left margin, away from text */ }
/* below merely inserts a character based on the class of the p tag */
p.hash::before { content: '#'; }
p.bang::before { content: '!'; }
p.huh::before { content: '?'; }
p.dbl::before { content: "%%"; }
p.law::before { content: "ยง"; }

As #Scott mentioned in his good answer, this could be achieved in few different ways, so alternatively you may do it by using a span with position:absolute and zero left, and a combination of margin-left and padding-left to form the gap, something like this:
jsFiddle
p{
margin-left:10px;
padding-left:40px;
position:relative;
}
p .symbols{
position:absolute;
left:0;
}
<p><span class="symbols">#</span>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat.

I want to create simple toggle button, that will expand/hide text paragraph. I wan't to use as little javascript as possible.
I tried it this way: Fiddle
The problem occurs when I want to hide expanded content. The content will be hidden after an unwanted delay - When user clicks the button the animation won't start immediately. I have tried it in chrome and firefox. In both I get the same behaviour.
Can someone explain me why is my code behaving this way and how to fix it?
Here is source code that is identical to the one in the fiddle link:
HTML:
<div class="container">
<h1 class="header">Header</h1>
<p class="content">
content
</p>
toggle
</div>
CSS:
.content {
max-height: 0;
overflow: hidden;
transition: max-height 1s ease-in-out;
}
.expanded .content {
max-height: 1000px;
}
Javascript:
var $container = $('.container');
$('.toggle').click(function() {
$container.toggleClass('expanded');
});
Add min-height instead:
.content {
max-height: 0;
overflow: hidden;
transition: min-height 1s ease-in-out;
}
.expanded .content {
min-height:20px;
}
Use min-height rather than max-height.
When you click 'toggle' and the div is expanded, the height of the div is reduced in 2 steps... first to it's "auto" height, then to the max-height in the original class. So what looks like a delay is actually 2 steps of height reduction.
max-height: is not an absolute value, it's ambiguous unless the content itself forces the height to be greater. The script has to calculate what the actual height is upon the transition then determine if it is greater than the max-height setting which is being transitioned to.
You can see this by just adding a defined height to the expanded class:
var $container = $('.container');
$('.toggle').on('click', function() {
$container.toggleClass('expanded');
});
.content {
max-height: 0px;
overflow: hidden;
background: #ddd;
transition: max-height .2s ease-in-out;
}
.expanded .content {
max-height: 300px;
height: 150px;
background: #ddd;
transition: max-height .2s ease-in-out;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="container">
<p class="content">
content
</p>
toggle
</div>
If your content is actually greater and it causes the div to be taller than the max-height value, you won't have this problem. It's only an issue when the original height is less than the max-height value in the transition.
var $container = $('.container');
$('.toggle').on('click', function() {
$('.container').toggleClass('expanded');
});
.content {
max-height: 0px;
overflow: hidden;
background: #ddd;
transition: max-height .2s ease-in-out;
}
.expanded .content {
max-height: 1000px;
background: #ddd;
transition: max-height .2s ease-in-out;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="container">
<p class="content">

If you adjust and use min-height you get a smooth transition. You also need to add height: 0; to the main class to completely hide the div on collapse.
var $container = $('.container');
$('.toggle').on('click', function() {
$container.toggleClass('expanded');
});
.content {
min-height: 0px;
height: 0;
overflow: hidden;
background: #ddd;
transition: min-height .2s ease-in-out;
}
.expanded .content {
min-height: 150px;
background: #ddd;
transition: min-height .2s ease-in-out;
}
