I am trying to make a replica of taco bell's website just for fun and as a challenge, and the replica website is private so no one will see it, anyways I am trying to make a side bar, it went good so far until this extra space (https://imgur.com/8soZSIg) appeared in the side bar, here is my css code (also I am a beginner):
.nav {
height: 84%;
width: 150px;
max-height: 84%;
position: fixed;
z-index: 1;
top: 137px;
left: 0;
background-color: #111;
max-width: 100%;
overflow-x: hidden;
padding-top: 0px;
padding: 0px;
padding-bottom: 0px;
min-width: 150px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
}
Try using display: inline-block it will work better since it will turm into an inline element with block element properties but also make sure to fix the max height and max width stuff because they are probably what is causing that space.

I checked my Tumblr theme on IE and the footer is in the middle of the page and here is the code I have.
#mastfooter {
background-color: #4F3117;
height: 295px;
clear: both;
margin-top: 0;
margin-right: auto;
margin-bottom: auto;
margin-left: auto;
width: 100%;
position: absolute;
left: 0px;
bottom: -38px;
}
Is there an Internet Explorer 9 solution to that?
Ryan Fait has the best cross browser solution to a sticky footer
See Here
But there are countless examples of sticky footers using just CSS on stackoverflow.
Based on the code provided, I would guess that you need to change it to something like this-
#mastfooter {
background-color: #4F3117;
height: 295px;
clear: both;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
width: 100%;
position: fixed; /* keeps the footer visible even when scrolling*/
bottom: 0px;
}
Note that the top and bottom margins have been removed, they were most likely the cause of the positioning problem.
Im very new to css and I still find hard to understand some concepts especially positioning.
Anyway, my problem is that my when I set position: relative; of the container and my footer position: absolute;
bottom: 0; the footer became small. It had the same width as the container which is supposed to be before I placed those codes. I did it because I want my footer to be at the most bottom part of the container.
Below is the screen shot:
The maroon is the footer.
In my footer I don't use div but instead I use html element <footer>.
My css codes:
div#container {
height: 100%;
width: 1000px;
margin: auto;
background-color: #C9C9C9;
position: relative;
}
footer {
background-color: #340B09;
height: 50px;
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
}
Please help.
Add width: 1000px; to your footer
Check this, if that may help you
https://developer.mozilla.org/samples/cssref/css-positioning.html
i will also encourage, you to have firebug installed in your browser
Also above the footer, add some div container, give it some height.. so that footer will stay at bottom. don't use positioning explicitly... since you are new to this.
Get yourself some time, you will be there on top of it..with CSS position :- )
Is it necessary for you to use relative and absolute positioning ? I'm asking since it has one drawback which is that the layout of the page will not be the same as always for all the different sizes of the screen.
Since you wanted to display footer at the bottom of the container, so here it can be done in this way.
<style type='text/css'>
body{
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
background-color: black;
}
#inbody{ /* main page */
padding-top: 10px;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-left: 0px;
margin-right: 0px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
height: 1170px;
}
#container{ /*container */
padding: 10px;
margin-top: 10px;
margin-left: 30px;
margin-right: 30px;
height: 1130px;
background-color: orange;
}
#header{ /* header */
margin-left: 168px;
height: 51px;
}
#midbody{ /* middle body */
margin: 10px;
padding: 0px;
height: 999px;
}
#footer{ /* footer */
padding: 10px;
height: 30px;
background-color: black;
}
</style>
Moreover you can change colors of every part to see the changes. Also use inspect element which shows the HTML and CSS of the web page. Also for the box model concept try experimenting the metrics in the inspect element.
You are using;
footer {
background-color: #340B09;
height: 50px;
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
}
If footer is some ID or Class, it should be defined in CSS like #footer or .footer and no problem if you are using html5 element footer.
If you want to stretch an element to fill container, use width: 100%. Add this to your footer if footer is inside your container. Otherwise it will stretch to screen.
I properly solved it by declaring width of footer to 980px; When I tried 1000px it became wider than the container because after researching I found out that mozilla and webkit doesn't include padding in the width.
I am having some problems with my DIV, it wont display over a a DIV that has a web user control in it. Below you can find my css. I believe I have done everything right and am hoping that someone can maybe see an error that I have made and help me out. If you need any other code let me know. I also wonder if its just IE rendering it wrong? Thanks for looking.
The Popup CSS:
{
background: #ececec;
position:absolute;
top: 236px;
left: 201px;
height: auto;
width: 280px;
border: solid 1px gray;
z-index: 50;
text-align:left;
padding-left: 5px;
padding-top: 5px;
padding-bottom: 15px;
font-size: 8pt;
}
The Activity DIV (same the div above just changed position)
{
border: solid 2px #A9C5EB;
position: absolute;
top: 353px;
left: 290px;
width: 710px;
height: 227px;
font-size: small;
overflow: scroll;
overflow-x: hidden;
background-color: #F8FBFE;
z-index: 2;
}
To know the HTML is essential to fix your problem.
What is the html that contains your popup? Is it relative to the body tag or some other element? Is the containing element position: relative;?
Try setting the containing element's z-index and position:
#my-container {
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
}
See this SO post about absolute positioning.
On a side note, check out IE-7.js which fixes many IE browser issues, including - AFAIK - this bug.
My site, http://hivechatter.com/, is super sexy for Firefox, Chrome, IE8, you name it:
But then along comes IE7, who mauls her divs so bad that they nearly run off the screen! And for whatever reason the content within the divs is centered. What the heck is going on here? It seems to be something to do with the way IE7 interprets the left: percentage margins, but I can't figure it out.
For convenience and posterity's sake, below are the relevant portions of my css, with text formatting and other nonsense removed. #container is the overall page container, #blue_box is the main content box, #left and #right are the columns in the blue box, #divider is the white line that separates them, #links is the light blue nav hovering below #blue_box.
#background {
width: 100%;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
z-index: -9999;
}
html, body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
height: 100%;
}
body {
background: no-repeat #222933;
overflow: hidden;
}
#container {
position: relative;
left: 34%;
top: 10%;
width: 50%;
min-width: 450px;
max-width: 700px;
overflow: auto;
padding: 0;
}
#blue_box {
position: relative; /* so that divider has appropriate height */
width: 94%;
padding: 3%;
overflow: auto; /*needed so that div stretches with child divs*/
}
#left {
position: relative;
float: left;
width: 44%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#right {
position: relative;
float: right;
width: 49%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#divider{
position:absolute;
left:49%;
top:6%;
bottom:6%;
border-left:1px solid white;
}
#links {
float: right;
width: 16em;
overflow: auto;
}
Change your position from relative to absolute for the container CSS.
Your problem is your image is just there with the container coming after it with a relative positioning.
IE7 is centering your container because you've set your body to text-align:center, then you're setting your container left:34%. IE is just adding those together for some reason. This is probably why your stuff is being centered in IE. You could do a conditional stylesheet for IE7 and remove the text-align.
Can't test at the moment if this will solve the issue but using margins on the blue box to position it instead of position: relative usually makes things a lot easier in the dark world of ancient Internet Explorers.
I know this has been asked alot of times in the past but for the life of me I can't seem to get any of the other solutions to work.
What I'm trying to do is to get the footer (which is an image that repeats across the width of the page) to stick to the bottom of the browser when there isn't enough content to naturally push it to the bottom of the page and when there IS enough content to push it to the bottom it does just that. An example is the one at http://www.themaninblue.com/experiment/footerStickAlt/good_example_short.htm which does exactly what I want but I can't get to work either.
The code that I've currently got implemented makes the footer stick to a certain section of the page with text going under it. You can see it at sourcectrl.co.uk but its not much to look at. Heres the code for your viewing pleasure.
html, body {
font: 100% Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
height: 100%;
color: #597347;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
background: #573909;
}
header {
display: block;
position: relative;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 66px;
background: url(../images/FillerPage_01.gif) repeat-x left bottom;
}
section {
width: 940px;
margin: 0 auto;
font-size: 1.4em;
overflow: auto;
min-height: 100%;
height: auto !important;
height: 100%;
margin-bottom: 87px;
position: relative;
padding-bottom: 90px;
}
footer {
display:block;
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 87px;
background: url(../images/FillerPage_08.gif) repeat-x left bottom;
}
Sorry if it seems messy! I'd just like to know if I'm heading in the right direction or theres something I'm just not getting? Oh yeah I'm trying to do all of this with the html 5 markup which is why there is no #footer and the like (could this be why none of the solutions work?).
If anyone could give me any help or guidance I'd be soooooo grateful.
I believe the code you are looking for is here:
http://www.themaninblue.com/writing/perspective/2005/08/29/
I implemented this just now on my site, and it's working great!
it's a while since you asked your question but hopefully this helps!
This is the source that helped me achieve such a layout :
http://www.jaydepro.com/blog/post/Frameless-page-header-and-footer-using-CSS.aspx
Put everything in the Main in a Wrapper and use the following code:
html, body, form
{
height: 100%;
}
#wrapper
{
min-height: 100%;
height: auto !important;
height: 100%;
margin: 0 auto -80px; (-80px will be different for you, usually the same as the footer but negative but mine is different)
}
#footer, .push
{
height: 60px; (This is just the height of MY footer, change this to whatever size your footer is)
}
