I'm trying to create a lightbox where the current image takes up 90% of the height of the page OR a 900px width, whichever one happens first.
Naturally, I used the code below, expecting it to fail. I was right. I tried using the aspect-ratio property (which is frowned on because of its lack of browser support), but nothing worked.
Anybody know how to achieve this?
/* Basically the lightbox container */
.modal {
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
/* Each image has the class mySlides */
.mySlides {
max-width: 900px;
max-height: 90%;
margin: 15px 5%;
}
Alright, a comment from Amaury Hanser got me on the right track. The solution that worked was using object-fit: contain;. This link helped me learn what that is. The property basically makes an object fit within the borders of its parent container while maintaining its aspect ratio.
This is my code now:
.modal {
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.mySlides {
max-width: 900px;
max-height: 90%;
object-fit: contain;
margin: 15px 5%;
}

The image is stretched when I try to make the size smaller.
http://jsfiddle.net/QEpJH/878/
.container img {
display: block;
width: 100%;
height: 60vh;
/*object-fit: cover; // doesn't work in Internet Explorer */
}
You need to make it scalable by 1:1
so use
width: auto; instead of width:100;.
or use height: auto; and width: 100%; in case you want to cover the whole width.
But remember if you cover the whole width, the height will increase.
If you set the width to auto, the image will adjust itself to the given height without any stretch.
.container img {
display: block;
width: auto;
height: 60vh;
}
if you set the image as a background instead and use
background-size:cover
you will lose the stretching but some of the image may get cut off
to counter this slightly you can use
background-position
to position the image in a more desirable place
Try ratio in only percentage or use similar ratio
.container img {
display: block;
width: 30%;
height: 30%;
/*object-fit: cover; // doesn't work in Internet Explorer */
}
I have a page I have 3 separate DIV's aligned, one right, center, then left. Which looks perfect when the page is at default size, however on smaller re-sizes they all 3 could rest on top of one another, which makes them unreadable.
My current CSS, all the same except the right value.
.Cat_One {
margin-left: 2%;
position:fixed;
left: 170px;
min-width: 20%;
max-width: 20%;
max-height: 350px;
overflow: scroll;
overflow-x: hidden;
overflow-y: auto;
}
My body CSS
body {
width: 100%;
min-height: 690px;
min-width: 1275px;
margin-left: -0px;
overflow-x: scroll;
overflow-x: scroll;
}
I just need to figure out a way to stop them from overlapping on resize. Tried many of the similar posts and doesn't seem my case is the same and the suggestions there don't exactly work out.. Perhaps I missed something.
Without more code, my best guess is the issue is with your position:fixed. Dump that. Depending on what you are looking to do, you can do display:inline-block; or use flexbox, or float:left; or if this is tabular data you could even use a table.
Position fixed though, I would put money on that not being what you want.
I had the same issue (Kinda). What i did was add this into the css:
top: 0px;
Right: 0px;
Position: Absolute;
This will make the div lock to the upper right corner of the page, and then use:
Transform: Translate(XXvw, XXvh);
The transform is used to relocate objects to where you want it ^^
You must also specify this in the css for html,body else it won't work:
Min-height: 100vh;
Min-width: 100vw; (100% of the viewport/browser window).
I already input width: 100% but it wont respond on anything. How do I get the header to respond on all browsers and ipads, phones, etc?
.head-wrap {
background: url(http://envisionmediallc.com/prodigy/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/We-are-prodigy-dumbell-weight.jpg) top no-repeat;
margin: 0;
height: 480px;
width: 100%;
}
.site-header {
background: url(http://envisionmediallc.com/prodigy/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Prodigy-Performance-we-are-prodigies4.png) no-repeat;
margin: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 420px;
}
.site-header .wrap {
padding: 16px 0;
padding: 1rem 0;
}
You can try setting the background-size style of the header to 100%; You may be dealing with some browser compatibility issues (see here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/background-size)
You could also remove the background-image property, and fill the content with plain img elements, with absolute positioning, then set those img elements to be width: 100%;
Your div is also constrained to a height of 420px which is going to screw things up. Set a max-height of 420px, and a height of auto (see here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/max-height)
You'll probably have to make your two background overlapping background images the same size (since the dimensions are different they might have different ratios of width/height), and use some media queries to clean things up, though, to make it work 100%.
I want to have a site that is 100% of the height of the browser at all times, with the width scaling with an aspect ratio when the height is changed.
I can achieve this using the new vh unit: http://jsbin.com/AmAZaDA/3 (resize browser height)
<body>
<div></div>
</body>
html, body {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
}
div {
height: 100%;
width: 130vh;
margin: 0 auto;
background: #f0f;
}
However, I worry about fallback for IE8 and Safari, as it this unit is not supported there.
Are there any other CSS only methods of achieving this effect?
I have a solution that works also with IE8 (using Pure CSS 2.1), but not perfectly.
because I need the browser to recalculate things when he get resized, and apparently it doesn't do that unless he has to (and I cant find a way to make him think he has to), so you will have to refresh the page after resizing.
as far as I know, the only element that can scale reserving his ratio is an <img>, so we will use the <img> to our advantage.
SO, we are going to use an image with the ratio that we want (using the services of placehold.it), lets say we want a 13X10 ratio (like in your example), so we'll use <img src="http://placehold.it/13x10" />.
that image will have a fixed height of 100% the body, and now the width of the image scales with respect to the ratio. so the width of the image is 130% height of the body.
that image is enclosed within a div, and that div has inline-block display, so he takes exactly the size of his content. witch is the size you want.
we remove the image from the display by using visibility: hidden; (not display:none; because we need the image to take the space), and we create another absolute div, that will hold the actual content, that will be right above the image (100% width and 100% height of the common container).
That works perfectly when you first initiate the page, but when you resize the page, the browser doesn't always measure the right width and height again, so you'll need to refresh to make that happened.
Here is the complete HTML:
<div class="Scalable">
<img class="Scaler" src="http://placehold.it/13x10" />
<div class="Content"></div>
</div>
and this simple CSS:
html, body, .Content
{
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
body
{
text-align: center;
}
.Scalable
{
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
height: 100%;
}
.Scaler
{
width: auto;
height: 100%;
margin-bottom: -5px;
visibility: hidden;
}
.Content
{
position: absolute;
top: 0;
background-color: black;
}
Here's a Fiddle (don't forget to refresh after resizing)
I recommend you to copy this code to your local machine and try it there rather then within the fiddle.
In this similar SO question a CSS technique was found and explained on this blog entry that allows an element to adjust its height depending on its width. Here is a repost of the code:
HTML:
<div id="container">
<div id="dummy"></div>
<div id="element">
some text
</div>
</div>
CSS:
#container {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
width: 50%;
}
#dummy {
margin-top: 75%; /* 4:3 aspect ratio */
}
#element {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
background-color: silver /* show me! */
}
Demo Here
If this is sufficient for you, I'd recommend this technique. However, I'm unaware if the technique can be adapted to handle scenarios where you must have an element adjust its width depending on its height.
You can do it with the help of padding on a parent item, because relative padding (even height-wise) is based on the width of the element.
CSS:
.imageContainer {
position: relative;
width: 25%;
padding-bottom: 25%;
float: left;
height: 0;
}
img {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
}
I know there are a lot of questions about a css 100% height problem.
However I've tried to follow the instructions there and still the height isn't 100%,
so I thought I'd ask the question again.
The site where you can see the problem is:
www.exendo.be
some css styles:
html {
height: auto !important;
margin: 0;
min-height: 100%;
padding: 0;
}
body {
background: url("/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/bg.png") repeat-x scroll 0 100px #F2F7E8;
height: auto !important;
margin: 0;
min-height: 100%;
padding: 0;
width: 100%;
}
wrapper {
height: auto !important;
min-height: 100%;
position: relative;
}
footer-container {
background: url("/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/exendo-footer_bg.png") no-repeat scroll center bottom #557F40;
height:146px;
}
As you can see on the site, the footer is too high on the page.
If I inspect the page with Firebug, I can see that the html is 100% height, but the body tag isn't.
The problem both occurs on Firefox and IE.
If anybody could help that would be great!
A number of people suggested position:absolute; bottom:0;
This can cause an issue if the content is taller than the container. The height will not increase so the content will no longer fit and can get cut off or result in ugly scroll bars.
If you can give a fixed height to the container, this is ideal since the height:100% will then work on the child element. In case the content is too large, you can put a background on the child with overflow:visible on the parent, so the content still displays. This helps, but it can still break unless the child is the same width as the parent.
If that doesn't work, I recommend using min-height in em or pixels. This will make sure the height fills the parent, and expands if the content is too long. This worked best for customer comments on www.baka.ca
I think this article can help you.
According to this article:
Assign "position:relative" to your "container" div - page, page-container, or wrapper (I'm not sure to which one of the three, just try), and then "position:absolute; bottom:0;" to your "footer-container" div.
I hope that helps you.
#denappel; give html & body 100% height put footer outside of your main div wrapper & give margin-bottom in minus according to the height of footer.
css:
.wrapper {
position: relative;
width: 700px;
font-size: 0.9em;
margin: 0 auto -142px;
background:yellow;
}
.header {
height: 190px;
background:green;
}
.footer {
position: relative;
width: 700px;
margin: 0 auto;
background:red;
}
* {
margin: 0;
}
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
.wrapper {
min-height: 100%;
height: auto !important;
height: 100%;
margin: 0 auto -142px;
.footer, .push {
height: 142px;
}
