I'm using float to align 3 div ( left, center, right ). the first picture show how it looks on
on Google Chrome. the second picture show how
it looks on Microsoft Edge . a float works fine on Google Chrome, when using Microsoft Edge the last div(right) moved to a left-bottom container. why this is happens
* body,
p,
img {
margin: 0;
}
.container {
width: 900px;
border: 5px solid green;
padding: 3px;
margin: auto;
}
.left {
background-color: blueviolet;
width: 150px;
height: 300px;
line-height: 100px;
text-align: center;
float: left;
}
.center {
width: 600px;
height: 300px;
background-color: burlywood;
float: left;
}
.right {
width: 150px;
height: 300px;
background-color: coral;
float: left;
}
.clear {
clear: left;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="left"></div>
<div class="center"></div>
<div class="right"></div>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
The CSS you wrote make the output appear as in the picture. In your container you used border and padding. The two will cause the actual width of the container to be less than 900px on some browser. So the width is 900 - (5 + 5) - (3 + 3) = 884px.
Possibly, chrome tried to understand what you want, but Edge give you actual output. This is expected as border and padding affect the final width of div containers. Though, setting margin does not affect it.
To resolve the issue and cause the three dogs to appear on same line on all browser, i.e the coral div to appear on the right, you will add the following CSS to your container (or preferably body tag):
box-sizing: border-box;

I've written up a very basic HTML and CSS page to test out my responsive web design skills but the calculation of the padding is going wrong and I can't figure out why, any help from people would be greatly appreciated.
Below I have added my code for you to see. I have one 'main' with a 'section' and an 'aside' in it. Inside both are a box of two different sizes. I calculated the size and margin of the boxes ok but the padding won't work properly. I calculated the padding by target/context=result, which in this case for the first box is 25px padding / 500px = 0.05 (5%), and for the second box is 25px/300px= 0.08333333 (8.333333%).
However this does not cause a 25px padding but instead creates a much bigger one. When I look at the Google Chrome Developer Tool it tells me that the padding for the first box is now 56.875px and the second box is 94.797px.
I've been trying to solve this for sometime now trying different things but can't manage to figure it out.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Code is below.
body, section, aside, p {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
main {
width:90%; /* viewport is 1264px wide, 90% width is 1137.590px */
background-color: lightgreen;
min-height: 1000px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
section {
height: 500px;
width: 44.067133%; /* 500/1137.590 */
background-color: green;
float: left;
margin: 04.398736%; /* 50.031/1137.590 */
padding: 5%; / 25/500 */
}
aside {
height: 300px;
width: 26.434279%; /* 300/1137.590 */
background-color: blue;
float: right;
margin: 04.398736%; /* 50.031/1137.590 */
padding: 8.3333333%; /* 25/300 */
color: lightblue;
}
<body>
<main>
<section class="box-green">
<p>This is a green box</p>
</section>
<aside class="box-blue">
<p>This is a blue box</p>
</aside>
</main>
</body>
When you calculate padding in percentage, that amount is calculated by the width of the containing block, not the height.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/padding
Padding, when given in percents, is based on the containing element not the height of the element itself.
Although this is not the correct way to write a responsive code but just to make you understand the padding % is not determined from the div size but its determined from the screen size. Also the margin you are using 4.398736% is adding on both left and right side of both the divs. Plus the padding of 5% on both side of .section and padding of 8.33333% on both side of .aside. its making the total size to 115.96555%.
For your understanding if you want both the divs (section and aside) to align side by side. Use the below written css style for both of them.
.section {
height: 500px;
width: 44.067133%;
background-color: green;
float: left;
margin: 02.199736%;
padding: 5%;
display: inline-block;
}
.aside {
height: 300px;
width: 26.434279%;
background-color: blue;
float: right;
margin: 02.199736%;
padding: 5%;
color: lightblue;
display: inline-block;
}
Hope this helps..
I have a fixed a button at the right of a bootstrap container.
But in high resolution, the button moves outside of the bootstrap container as it is fixed relative to body, not container.
Note: It must be fixed (not absolute) because I don't want it to scroll with window.
Here is the code:
<div class="body">
<h1>Body</h1>
<div class="container">
<h1>Container</h1>
Enquire Now
</div>
</div>
CSS:
.fixed-btn {
padding: 10px 20px;
background: #000;
color: #FFF !important;
text-decoration: none !important;
line-height: 30px;
position: fixed;
right: 70px;
top: 50px;
}
.body {
background: aquamarine;
min-height: 1000px;
}
.container {
background: antiquewhite;
min-height: 1000px;
max-width: 400px;
}
Is it possible to make it fixed within a bootstrap container? so it would not move outside of the container.
Look a live code at JSFIDDLE.
One possibility is to position the fixed element using calc
.fixed-btn {
position: fixed;
left: calc(50% + (400px/2)) ;
}
In this case the 400px (from your demo) would be the width of the container based on the various widths in Bootstrap.
You would have to adjust this in each media query.
JSfiddle Demo
I am working on a navigation bar that has a right section with contents that will vary in width and then I want the left section to take the remainder of the space. I found display: inline-block; sets the element width based on it's content, but I cannot get the left section to take the remainder of the space.
I found another question that shows how to do what I want if the right section was the remainder (Set width to remainder of parent - dynamic width) and tried to figure out how to use that concept the other way round, but the right section ends up going onto a second line.
Ultimately I am trying to do this with polymer core-toolbars, but I cannot even get this to work with a very simple example.
html:
<div id="container">
<div id="left">main</div>
<div id="right">variable width content</div>
</div>
css (using linked example):
#container {
width: 100%;
height: 32px;
}
#left {
overflow: hidden;
height: 100%;
background-color: blue;
}
#right {
float: right;
max-width: 25%;
height: 100%;
background-color: grey;
}
css (using inline-block):
#container div{
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
height: 32px;
}
#left {
left: 0px;
background-color: blue;
}
#right {
right: 0px;
display: inline-block;
background-color: grey;
}

http://jsfiddle.net/dhJPS/
my prblems are
the middle three divs are being overlapped by the right div, notice on the words how they are not centered from the left div to the right div

You simply need to rearrange some things.
When floating something to the right, the HTML always need to come before any other HTML. Right, left, static is the best order to follow.
You always want to cascade your CSS. Put global styles at the top of the style sheet. The body styles should be at the top of your CSS, not the bottom.
I added a wrapper div to set a minimum width. This way the interior content will never go below that width, ensuring things never overlap. However they will expand as much as needed.
It is rare you need to set width: 100%; in the CSS. It's not always a bad thing, but you shouldn't bother setting that unless you specifically know you need it.
I rearranged some things, and removed some of the HTML that jsFiddle don't need.... UPDATED FIDDLE HERE
Here is your answer.
Key issues:
margin
inner div to group all the central ones
[VERY IMPORTANT] display: inline-block; - This will make sure that your div will be the exact size you defined. if not used it will use 100% for both width and height
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<style>
.panels {
height: 768px;
}
.rightside, .leftside {
width: 170px;
height: 100%;
background-color: yellow;
display: inline-block;
}
.leftside {
float: left;
}
.rightside {
float: right;
}
.innerPanels {
height: 100%;
margin: 0 170px;
}
.intab, .outtab {
height: 25%;
background-color: lime;
opacity: 0.75;
}
.currentday{
height: 50%;
background-color: darkgray;
}
</style>
</head>

<div class="panels">

Hi I am having problems positioning several images. It is very important that max height of the site stays at approximately 580 pixels as I want to give the impression of a picture frame around the site. I have attached a picture to show how exactly the site is laid out and where I want to position my images in the top, middle and bottom divs. I do not want to have them as background images because I want to have some as links and I want to have some jquery animations (i.e. fadeIn and toggle) with the other images. This is a fluid layout but I do not want the vertical width to expand when the browser is at the min width of 780px, I also would like that the images are some what centred on the page.
I am still learning CSS so I have done the best I can but it is still out of position.
Thanks for your help
Site Layout Picture
.container {
width: 100%;
max-width: 1096px;
min-width: 780px;
margin: 0 auto;}
.header {
background:#231f20;
height: 65px;
}
.sidebar1 {
padding: 0px;
float: left;
width: 65px;
background: #231f20;
margin: 0;
min-height: 450px;}
.sidebar2 {

.main_content{
padding: 0px;
width: 80%;
float: left;
}
.footer {
height: 65px;
background:#231f20;
position: relative;
}
HTML
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="header"></div>
<div class="sidebar1"></div>
<div class="main_content">

<div class=”bottom"></div>
</div>
<div class="sidebar2"></div>

Add position: relative to all the containing div's (you may have to set the height of them to the height of the tallest image also). Then position all the images something like:
.img1 { /* or whatever class name works for you */
position: absolute;
left: 50%; /* this centers it, if you want thirds, us 33%, 66%, etc. */
margin-right: -50px; /* note: 50px is an example, it needs to be half the width of your image width */
}
Try adding clear: both; to the CSS for the .footer. This will force it to the bottom of the "picture frame".
