here I am trying to give margin to #signin-text but it's not working ... I used positioning that worked but margin-top didn't can someone please tell me why the margin-top property in #signin-text not working this is my first question of stackoverflow please forgive if the question is asked in a wrong way. :)
span is an inline element. That's why it can't accept margin. If you change this (change its block level) by giving display: inline-block for example, the margin will affect.
span {
margin-top: 15px;
}
.inline-block {
display: inline-block;
}
<div>
<span>natural</span>
</div>
<div>
<span class="inline-block">inline-block</span>
</div>
Since you're using css property top with margin-top it will not work.top always takes precedence over margin-top when using with position property. Check https://www.w3schools.com/Css/css_positioning.asp for reference. Try using top with a value 100px
spans are the inline elements that take margins horizontally only not vertically, Only the block and inline-blocks can take margins as vertically and horizontally.
Margin properties specify the width of the margin area of a box. The
'margin' shorthand property sets the margin for all four sides while
the other margin properties only set their respective side. These
properties apply to all elements, but vertical margins will not have
any effect on non-replaced inline elements.
there are many solutions to your problem, either use div or specify span tag as inline-block in your style tag. Still, there are many other ways to achieve this

what I want to ask is "shouldn't be line-height have a value of 3em in h2. how it is actually working. when I set set font-size:2em and line-height:3em it is not in center vertically. How can be a line-height:1.5 is keeping the text in center of header?"
html{
font-size:10px;
}
h2{
margin:0;
}
.card{
width: 35em;
height: 22em;
margin: 05em auto;
background-color: red;
}
.card header{
height: 3em;
padding: 1em;
background: orange;
}
.card header h2{
font-size:2em;
line-height: 1.5em;
}

I figured it out myself.
problem is here
.card header h2{
font-size:2em;
line-height: 1.5em;
}
basefont size is set to 10px. so when i set font-size:2em it means font-size has value "20px" so when line-height is set to 1.5em it is taking the current font-size value which is 20px (2em) so now line-height:1.5em means 1.5 of 20px which is 30px.
in short: em refers to local font-size value first then to parent and last to global.
I have the following HTML5 code:
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8"/>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"/>
<style>
body {
max-width: 960px;
margin: 0 auto;
font-size: 120%;
}
header, nav {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
border: 1px solid black;
}
header {
border-color: red;
}
img.mainpicture {
width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<header>
<img class="mainpicture" src="http://s29.postimg.org/ajjbb0n07/apic.jpg" alt="A picture"/></header><nav>Navigation area.</nav>
</body>
</html>
Can someone please explain why there is about 5 pixels of empty space between the <header> and the <nav> content, and how can I remove it?
By adding
header {
padding-bottom: 1px;
}
to the CSS file, the height of the white space is extended by one pixel, so it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the padding of <header>.
EDIT: I would like to do it without using <nav style="position: relative; top:-7px;">.
Set display block on the image for fixing fitting issues.
body {
max-width: 960px;
margin: 0 auto;
font-size: 120%;
}
header,
nav {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
border: 1px solid black;
}
img.mainpicture {
width: 100%;
display: block;
}
<header>
<img class="mainpicture" src="//lorempicsum.com/futurama/960/200/2" alt="A picture" />
</header>
<nav>
Navigation area.
</nav>
Just add
img.mainpicture{
.....................
.....................
vertical-align: top;
}
That will fix the issue:)
It could be because of the inner elements having a margin, that is protruding outside! And also since you have an <img />, give a display: block; to it. Try overflow: hidden; for both header, nav:
header, nav {
overflow: hidden;
}
header img {
display: block;
}
Set the property margin-bottom equal to zero.
margin-bottom: 0;
I'm a newbie when it comes to CSS. My overall goal is to convert a small web application that I have which displays data in table to using CSS.
A description of what the application displays is that in a left hand window there is a list of employee names, on the right is a cell for each day that the employee has worked which spans a user selectable period.
In the code below, I can't get the cell elements to overflow so that the user can scroll to the right, instead the cells are overflowing down.
Is there a way I can get the overflow to work horizontally rather than vertically so I can scroll left and right to see all the cells rather than what it is doing now which is creating a scroll bar vertically?
Much appreciated if anyone can help - it's got me frustrated!

Two suggestions:
You're essentially asking for a table-based layout, so you may as
well use an HTML table.
Each of your cells has a fixed width, and your PHP code should know
how many of them to create, so you can set the width of the
container element (#centrecontent here) wide enough to contain them
all.
Also, element IDs are supposed to be unique within the HTML doc, so creating 100 elements all with #cell as their ID is incorrect - you should use a CSS class name instead.
You could put all of the cells in another div and set that div to a specific width.

I want to create a menu that has buttons in it but for some reason the buttons dont get aligned at the buttom of the div. I have done this before the same way using tables and then it worked but now im trying without the tables and for some reason this does not work.
my css:
body
{
background: #bbb url(../images/Mywallpap.jpg) no-repeat;
font-family: Sans-Serif;
padding:0;
margin: 0;
}
#Background
{
width: 750px;
margin: 0 auto;
background: #FEFEFE;
}
.Menu
{
height: 60px;
vertical-align: bottom;
}
.Menu div
{
height : 30px;
margin-left: 25px;
padding: 0;
}
My html:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title></title>
<link href="MyCss.css" type="text/css" rel="Stylesheet" />
</head>
<body>
<div id="Background">
<div class="Menu">
<div>
<button>Test</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
what am i missing here?
Try Using this CSS for button
.ButtonClass
{
border: thin groove #000000;
vertical-align: bottom;
}
And if you are looking for alignment inside div.You can use position:absolute; to absolutely position an element within a parent div.
When using position:absolute; the element will be positioned absolutely from the first positioned parent div, if it can't find one it will position absolutely from the window so you will need to make sure the content div is positioned relatively.
So add position:relative; to the content div, remove the float from the button and add the following css:
position: absolute;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
Vertical align will work only for table cells1:
.Menu
{
display: table-cell;
}
1 Actually it will also work for inline blocks, but with different effect.
I'm experiencing an issue with my CSS when working in Firefox. It should be pretty simple. Everything is working fine except that I cannot seem to get the links in the header aligned to the right (the color will change as well as any other modifications except alignment). The only way I can do it is to float it right, but that reverses the order of the links and seems wrong. Maybe there is a better way to deal with the links in the header than the span that I've used? I will have some more links in the header in another position, though, so I need to specify which links I'm referring to somehow...
Take a look at the code below:
First, the HTML:
"<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<style type="text/css" media="screen">#import "layout2.css";</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="all">
<div id="head">
<span class="headlinks">
Logout
</span>
</div>
<div id="menu">
</div>
<div id="content">
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>"
Now, the CSS:
/* Layout2.css */
#all {
border: none;
position: absolute;
left: 0%;
top: 0%;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.headlinks a {
text-align:right;
color:#ffffff;
}
#head {
border: none;
position: absolute;
left: 0%;
width: 100%;
height: 10%;
background-color:#336699;
}
#head h1 {
margin-top: 1%;
text-align:right;
}
#menu {
border: none;
position: absolute;
left: 1%;
top: 12%;
width: 20%;
height: 90%;
padding-left: 1%;
padding-right: 1%;
background-color:#b1b2a3;
}
#content{
border: none;
position: absolute;
left: 25%;
top: 12%;
width: 72%;
height: 90%;
padding-left: 1%;
padding-right: 1%;
background-color: #eeeeee;
}
Thanks!
Change <span class="headlinks> to a <div>, and add text-align: right to its CSS style.
You want:
#head { text-align: right; }
The head div is a block element with 100% width. Headlinks is an inline element containing one link. text-align is used on a block element its contents, not on inline elements to indicate how to place them inside their parent.
An alternative approach is to make headlinks a block level element:
span.headlinks { display: block; text-align: right; }
Which to use depends on what you want to achieve.
Try putting the 'text-align:right' on the 'head' div rather than the 'headlinks' span. This style applies to block level elements like div, not inline elements like span.
