what I am trying to do is modify the style of my b-collapse since by default it has a vertical style that I think and what I want is to give my menu a horizontal style
This is how I implement it:
<div style="background-color:white;">
<b-collapse id="collapse-cat-lvl1-469">
<div data-cat-acc="473" class="grid-item parent-lvl-2">
<a class="link -1 grid-sty-1" href="#" target="_self" data-menu-item-id="473">
<span class="text">GTI</span>
</a>
</div>
<div data-cat-acc="474" class="grid-item parent-lvl-2">
<a class="link sty-1 grid-sty-1" href="#" target="_self" data-menu-item-id="474">
<span class="text">Pets</span>
</a>
</div>
</b-collapse>
</div>
You can modify <b-collapse id = "collapse-cat-lvl1-469"> in if this: collapse-cat-lvl1-469 ???
What I intend is to give it better style with CSS, or some way that I can see my menu horizontally and not vertically
.navbar-greetings, .login-section{display: none}
#menu-header.collapse:not(.show){
display: block;
}
#menu-header{
position: fixed;
top: 25px;
max-width: 83%;
margin: 0 auto;
left: 8.32%;
.panel{
button{
display: block;
color: white;
font-size: 13px;
font-family: 'VWHead-Bold';
}
}
#accordion-mbl-menu{
display: flex;
}
}

Problem: unable to horizontally center the image:
Please see the code example here:
.row {
background: #f8f9fa;
margin-top: 20px;
}
.col {
border: solid 1px #6c757d;
padding: 10px;
}
.index-img-container {
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
}
.index-img {
max-width: 100%;
max-height: 100%;
}
<link href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.4.1/css/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<div class="card ">
<div class="card-block m-1">
<a href="" target="_blank" class="nounderline">
<div class="index-img-container d-flex align-items-center justify-content-center">
<img class="index-img" src="https://picsum.photos/536/354">
</div>
<div class="card-body card-body-fix">
<div class="text-secondary font-italic">Title here</div>
<h6 class="card-title text-dark card-title-text">
Some text is shown here with The Lorem Ipsum for photos.
</h6>
<span class="text-space-no-wrap">
<span class="card-text text-danger">Important message</span>
<span class="card-text h5 text-secondary small"></span>
</span>
<br><span class="font-italic text-secondary small">+ Some note</span>
</div>
</a>
<a class="btn btn-info w-100" href="" target="_blank" role="button">View Details</a>
</div>
</div>
If I removed the css class "index-img-container", the image will be centered.
.index-img-container {
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
}
I am unable to understand how this size-defining class can cause the image to align to left. But in order to keep all images the same size this class cannot be removed. Is there a solution?
Thanks.
You could add auto margin to your class to encourage centering:
.index-img-container {
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
margin: auto;
}
I'm trying to achieve a solution where a horizontal line appears to the left of the text but the text remains centre aligned. Please see image below.
I've also added my mark-up below. I'm currently using Bootstrap 4.
<div class="text-center nav-items">
<ul>
<div class="pb-5">
<li>
<h2 class="sidebar-first-item">About</h2>
</li>
<p>Behind the brand // Meet the team</p>
</div>
<div class="pb-5">
<li>
<h2>Our Work</h2>
</li>
<p>Take a look at our marvelous creations</p>
</div>
<div class="pb-5">

<div class="pb-5">

<h2 class="sidebar-last-item">Contact</h2>
</li>
<p>Get in touch today. Let's make some magic</p>
</div>
</ul>
</div>
Use pseudo-elements to do so:
.sidebar-first-item {
position: relative;
}
.sidebar-first-item:before {
content: '';
position: absolute;
width: 45%;
height: 5px;
background-color: red;
top: 50%;
left: 0%;
}
CodePen: https://codepen.io/manaskhandelwal1/pen/xxEaQYg
First cleanup your html, a <ul> list may not have children other than <li>, <script> or <template> elements (see The Unordered List element). Hence remove the div's inside the <ul> and add their classes to the <li>.
A solution to your design problem is to add a element before and after your anchor elements, size them (width) with a percentage you like and set a min-width for the anchor, so you have a nice responsive layout also on small devices. This creates an equal width red line
If you want the red line to align with the width of the text, you can make your anchor non-breaking white space and a set a padding, so the red line comes as close as defined in the padding towards the text.
.redline,
.spacer {
width: 100%;
height: 3px;
display: inline;
background-color: red;
}
.spacer {
height: 0px;
}
li {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
li a {
margin: 0 auto;
border: 0px solid gold;
padding: 0 20px;
white-space: nowrap;
}
li p {
width: 100%; margin:-50px 0 50px;
}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.5.2/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<div class="text-center nav-items">
<ul>
<li class="pb-5">
<span class="redline"></span>
<a href="#">
<h2 class="sidebar-first-item">About</h2>
</a>
<span class="spacer"></span>
</li>
<li>
<p>Take a look at our marvelous creations</p>
</li>
<li class="pb-5">
<span class="redline"></span>
<a href="#">
<h2>Our Work</h2>
</a>
<span class="spacer"></span>
</li>
<li>
<p>Behind the brand // Meet the team</p>
<li>
</ul>
</div>
This is where a CSS pseudo element can come into play! A pseudo element can be used to place designs before or after an element.
I added a class called horizontal-line to your h2.
<div class="text-center nav-items">
<ul>
<div class="pb-5">
<li>
<h2 class="horizontal-line sidebar-first-item">About</h2>
</li>
<p>Behind the brand // Meet the team</p>
</div>
<div class="pb-5">
<li>
<h2>Our Work</h2>
</li>
<p>Take a look at our marvelous creations</p>
</div>
<div class="pb-5">
<li>
<h2>Services</h2>
</li>
<p>Learn more about what we can do for you</p>
</div>
<div class="pb-5">
<li>
<h2 class="sidebar-last-item">Contact</h2>
</li>
<p>Get in touch today. Let's make some magic</p>
</div>
</ul>
The CSS will look like this.
.horizontal-line {
position: relative;
}
.horizontal-line::before {
content: "";
display: block;
width: 60px;
height: 2px;
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 35%;
border-radius: 30px;
background-color: #DE657D;
}
By adding the pseudo element it will know to place it before any content with that class name. In this case, we are leaving content blank and placing in

I have this JSFiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/96urhqcz/
There are 4 divs in a row - the HTML looks like this:
<div class="g-1-4 app">
<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="https://link1/">
<div style="margin:10px; padding: 30px 0px; background:#E74C3C" class="app">
<i class="fa fa-3x fa-comments-o" width="50%" style="display:block; margin:auto" src="/static/launcher/comments-o"></i>
Link Number 1
</div>
</a>
</div>
<div class="g-1-4 app">
<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="https://link2/">
<div style="margin:10px; padding: 30px 0px; background:#9D55B8" class="app">
<i class="fa fa-3x fa-paper-plane" width="50%" style="display:block; margin:auto" src="/static/launcher/paper-plane"></i>
Link Number 2
</div>
</a>
</div>
<div class="g-1-4 app">
<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="https://link3/">
<div style="margin:10px; padding: 30px 0px; background:#3395DD" class="app">
<i class="fa fa-3x fa-street-view" width="50%" style="display:block; margin:auto" src="/static/launcher/street-view"></i>
Link 3
</div>
</a>
</div>
<div class="g-1-4 app">
<a style="text-decoration:none;" href="https://link4/">
<div style="margin:10px; padding: 30px 0px; background:#00838F" class="app">
<i class="fa fa-3x fa-line-chart" width="50%" style="display:block; margin:auto" src="/static/launcher/line-chart"></i>
Link 4
</div>
</a>
</div>
The CSS for g-1-4 looks like this:
.g-1-4{
width: 25%;
}
As you can see in the JSFiddle - the margins between the boxes are 'linked' to the appropriate box.
Ultimately I'm trying to have a 4-across layout, but have the margins not linked. When a user mouses between the boxes I want it to be a regular mouse with no clickability.
I'm sure it's something really simple I'm missing - but I can't seem to correct it.
Any thoughts or ideas?
You can set a fixed width to your divs, and using flexbox they will be automaticaly displayed with space which is not 'linked'.
Hope this little code will help you.
.flex {
display : flex;
justify-content : space-around;
}
.div1, .div3 {
width : 120px;
height : 120px;
background-color : red;
}
.div2, .div4 {
width : 120px;
height : 120px;
background-color : blue;
}
p {
margin : 0;
color : white;
line-height: 120px;
font-size : 12px;
text-align : center;
}
<div class="flex">
<a href="#" class="div1">
<p>LINK 1</p>
</a>
<a href="#" class="div2">
<p>LINK 2</p>
</a>
<a href="#" class="div3">
<p>LINK 3</p>
</a>
<a href="#" class="div4">
<p>LINK 4</p>
</a>
</div>
Take the margin off of the <div> and add it to the <a> that's wrapping the div. Also add style="display:block:" to the <a>.
This CodePen has the updates.
The issue is coming from your using the table cell display method.
.g > div,
.g-m > div {
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: top;
}
I also support the flex box usage as pointed out by Louis.
What is happening is that the link element is expanding to the 100% of the container div to get some space you could set a specific width for the a tag or you could add some padding to the container element, you will have to play with padding and width to make it look good though.

.g-1-4{
width: 25%;
padding: 10px;

I want a whole block to be centered in its parent, but I want the contents of the block to be left aligned.
Examples serve best
On this page :
http://yaml-online-parser.appspot.com/?yaml=%23+ASCII+Art%0d%0a---+%7c%0d%0a++%5c%2f%2f%7c%7c%5c%2f%7c%7c%0d%0a++%2f%2f+%7c%7c++%7c%7c__%0d%0a&type=python
the ascii art should be centered (as it appears) but it should line up and look like "YAML".
Or this :
http://yaml-online-parser.appspot.com/?yaml=%3f+-+Detroit+Tigers%0d%0a++-+Chicago+cubs%0d%0a%3a%0d%0a++-+2001-07-23%0d%0a%0d%0a%3f+%5b+New+York+Yankees%2c%0d%0a++++Atlanta+Braves+%5d%0d%0a%3a+%5b+2001-07-02%2c+2001-08-12%2c%0d%0a++++2001-08-14+%5d%0d%0a
the error message should all line up as it does in a console.
First, create a parent div that centers its child content with text-align: center. Next, create a child div that uses display: inline-block to adapt to the width of its children and text-align: left to make the content it holds align to the left as desired.
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="display: inline-block; text-align: left;">
Centered<br />
Content<br />
That<br />
Is<br />
Left<br />
Aligned
</div>
</div>
If you wish to ensure that a long line does not widen everything too much, you may also apply the max-width property (with a value of your choice) to the inner tag:
max-width: 250px;
Reposting the working answer from the other question: How to horizontally center a floating element of a variable width?
Assuming the element which is floated and will be centered is a div with an id="content" ...
<body>
<div id="wrap">
<div id="content">
This will be centered
</div>
</div>
</body>
And apply the following CSS
#wrap {
float: left;
position: relative;
left: 50%;
}
#content {
float: left;
position: relative;
left: -50%;
}
Here is a good reference regarding that http://dev.opera.com/articles/view/35-floats-and-clearing/#centeringfloats
If I understand you well, you need to use to center a container (or block)
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
and to left align it's contents:
text-align: left;
I've found the easiest way to centre and left-align text inside a container is the following:
HTML:
<div>
<p>Some interesting text.</p>
</div>
CSS:
P {
width: 50%; //or whatever looks best
margin: auto; //top and bottom margin can be added for aesthetic effect
}
Hope this is what you were looking for as it took me quite a bit of searching just to figure out this pretty basic solution.
Normally you should use margin: 0 auto on the div as mentioned in the other answers, but you'll have to specify a width for the div. If you don't want to specify a width you could either (this is depending on what you're trying to do) use margins, something like margin: 0 200px; , this should make your content seems as if it's centered, you could also see the answer of Leyu to my question

Is this what you are looking for? Flexbox...

align-content: center;
align-items: center;

For those of us still working with older browsers, here's some extended backwards compatibility:

Partially inspired by this post: https://stackoverflow.com/a/12567422/14999964.
use CSS text-align and display properties to see changes accordingly. Margins are also helpful. For me in the case of SweetAlert to center and align left the following code works. For you may be a different scenario.
.format-pre pre {
font-size: 18px;
text-align: left;
display: inline-block;
}
in ts file
showPasswordHints(){
var message = 'Your password mist contain:<br>'+
'1. At least 8 characters in length<br>'+
'2. At least 3 Lowercase letters<br>'+
'3. At least 1 Uppercase letter<br>'+
'4. At least 1 Numbers<br>'+
'5. At least 1 Special characters<br>'+
'5. Maximum 16 characters in length';
Swal.fire({
html:'<pre>' + message + '</pre>',
customClass: {
popup: 'format-pre'
}
,
showClass: {
popup: 'animate__animated animate__fadeInDown'
},
hideClass: {
popup: 'animate__animated animate__fadeOutUp'
},
icon: 'info',
confirmButtonText: 'Got it',
confirmButtonColor: '#3f51b5',
});
}
.grid {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr);
justify-items: center;
align-items: center;
}
.width {
width: 12ch;
}
.title {
text-align: center;
}
<span class="grid">
<span class="width title">Title 1</span>
<span class="width title">Title 2</span>
<span class="width title">Title 3</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">13 characters</span>
<span class="width">18 characters text</span>
<span class="width">5 cha</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">3 c</span>
<span class="width">9 charact</span>
<span class="width">35 characters text and so on goes a</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">6 char</span>
<span class="width">12 character</span>
<span class="width">13 characters</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">7 chara</span>
<span class="width">22 characters text and</span>
<span class="width">15 characters g</span>
</span>
I came close to the above acceptable result using grid for each row and width for each column.
This is the raw text:
span {
border: 1px solid;
}
<span class="grid">
<span class="width title">Title 1</span>
<span class="width title">Title 2</span>
<span class="width title">Title 3</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">13 characters</span>
<span class="width">18 characters text</span>
<span class="width">5 cha</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">3 c</span>
<span class="width">9 charact</span>
<span class="width">35 characters text and so on goes a</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">6 char</span>
<span class="width">12 character</span>
<span class="width">13 characters</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">7 chara</span>
<span class="width">22 characters text and</span>
<span class="width">15 characters g</span>
</span>
I turned it into a completely centered grid with 3 columns:
.grid {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr);
justify-items: center;
align-items: center;
}
span {
border: 1px solid;
}
<span class="grid">
<span class="width title">Title 1</span>
<span class="width title">Title 2</span>
<span class="width title">Title 3</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">13 characters</span>
<span class="width">18 characters text</span>
<span class="width">5 cha</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">3 c</span>
<span class="width">9 charact</span>
<span class="width">35 characters text and so on goes a</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">6 char</span>
<span class="width">12 character</span>
<span class="width">13 characters</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">7 chara</span>
<span class="width">22 characters text and</span>
<span class="width">15 characters g</span>
</span>
Finally, I defined a specified width for each element. This resulted in a centered block with text that is justified left, except for the title:
.grid {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr);
justify-items: center;
align-items: center;
}
.width {
width: 12ch;
}
.title {
text-align: center;
}
span {
border: 1px solid;
}
<span class="grid">
<span class="width title">Title 1</span>
<span class="width title">Title 2</span>
<span class="width title">Title 3</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">13 characters</span>
<span class="width">18 characters text</span>
<span class="width">5 cha</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">3 c</span>
<span class="width">9 charact</span>
<span class="width">35 characters text and so on goes a</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">6 char</span>
<span class="width">12 character</span>
<span class="width">13 characters</span>
</span>
<span class="grid">
<span class="width">7 chara</span>
<span class="width">22 characters text and</span>
<span class="width">15 characters g</span>
</span>
Varying the width for each column (based on a counter of its content, for example), could provide better adjustment for edge cases.
THIS works
