I'm learning about floats at the moment, and I have a question.
Looking at the code here, I am wondering if I can make it so that the background-color property only applies to the paragraph, and not the image.
I have tried putting clear: both inside the p's declaration, however, this makes the paragraph goes under the image, which is not what I wanted.
body{
background-color: #cccccc;
}
.wrapper{
max-width: 960px;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 20px;
background-color: #ffffff;
}
img{
width: 300px;
float: left;
margin: 20px;
}
p{
background-color: rgb(0,200,255);
padding: 20px;
}

All suggestions are appreciated! Thanks in advance!
Reset the background-color of the image
background-color: #ffffff
And if you want that the margin is also white, you could use a border instead of margin.
border: 20px solid #ffffff

Currently still doing my project and I'm trying to find out how to position headings in certain places. Figure 1 is my final goal for my headings to look like.
[Figure 1][1]
Currently this is what mine looks like (Figure 2), I am struggling to position the heading to a similar spot, every time I do, the paragraphs and the navbar move further down leaving a big white gap between the headings & paragraphs.
Also was wondering how would I level out the image with the text & navbar?
Thanks in advance, much appreciated.
[Figure 2][2]
I believe this is what you wanted:
preview
Basically, you could wrap the header (image + text) into a CSS flexbox, and the rest of the stuff into another flexbox. I edited the CSS file to reflect these changes. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

position: absolute;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
padding: 0.8rem;
text-align: left;
background-color: #64A3D6;
}
create a div around h1 and h3
.header{
position: relative;
top: 50%;
transform: translateY(-50%);
}
this will put the header in the middle of the area vertically. make sure the padding or margin is minimal
(EDIT: my current code added to bottom of post)
I need to set a value for the height of the div in order for it to hide/scroll overflow properly, but I don't want a div at a specific pixel height. I can solve that by using % or vh units, but I don't actually want to use those units. By that, I mean I don't want my div to always be, for example, 2/3 of the page, because that means the bottom of the div will be a different distance from the bottom of the browser window, like this-
* {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
html, body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
body > div {
width: 90%;
height: 90%;
background: yellow;
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style2.css">
</head>
<body>
<div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
-I want it to be a consistent distance from the bottom of the browser window,
like this-
html, body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
div {
background-color: yellow;
width: 350px;
position: fixed;
left: 10px;
top: 10px;
right: 10px;
bottom: 10px;
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style2.css">
</head>
<body>
<div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
(for visual representation primarily, I am not really using the code itself as an example)
Basically, I want my div to be a variable height and hide/scroll overflow, but always 10px from the bottom.
I think these describe the same problem I'm having:
Setting a length (height or width) for one element minus the variable length of another, i.e. calc(x - y), where y is unknown
Getting a scrollable child div to Vertically fill the remainder of its parent dynamically
The answers there are to use tables or flexbox - are these the only options (without using javascript)?

margin: 0;
padding: 0;

You're on the right track! You can combine vh with calc to get the desired effect.
height: calc(100vh - 10px) - assuming the element is positioned at the top of the screen, that'll achieve the effect you're describing.
To handle scroll/overflow, you'll need an inner container - a div inside the one you set the height property on. Give that inner div { height: 100%; overflow: auto; } and you should be all set.
Here's a demo - to see it working, use the full screen view and shrink your browser's height.
/* These styles are just to make this easier to see,
and to normalize the display a little. */
* { box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0; padding: 0; }
.page { width: 100px; border: 2px solid; }
/* Here's the box that locks to some distance from the bottom, in this case 30px */
.outer {
height: calc(100vh - 30px);
position: relative;
border: 1px solid blue;
}
/* And here's the scrollable container inside it */
.inner {
height: 100%;
overflow: auto;
}

I have a layout like this:
[left-image] | [title-------------------------------------]
(width up to 150) | [left-floated-p -----------[right-floated-p]
|
| lots of text................................
The only way I could implement this is by using float:left on the "left-image" and display:table-row on the contents from the right side.
The problem is that this doesn't seem to work in IE 7 :(
Are there any fixes for it? or other alternatives to implement such a layout?
note that I can't use margin-left on the right blocks because I don't know the exact size of the left image + I have 2 floats on the right side and clearing them messes up the layout...
Unfortunately IE 7 doesn't support it. A quick solution:
CSS
<style type="text/css">
#wrapper {
width: 800px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
#leftcol {
width: 150px;
}
#rightcol {
width: 650px;
}
#twocols {
overflow: auto;
}
#leftp,#rightp {
width: 325px;
}
#leftcol, #leftp {
float: left;
}
#rightcol, #rightp {
float: right;
}
</style>

You would need to make the text and headline prettier, but this works.
The best alternative for implementing such a layout would be using a grid framework like blueprintcss, yahoo grid etc.
I think something like this would work
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="leftImage">Hello</div>
<div id="rightSide">
<!-- Right side things here -->
</div>
</div>
#wrapper {
width:400px;
height:400px;
background:red;
}
#leftImage {
position:absolute;
width:200px;
height:200px;
background:blue;
}
#rightSide {
position:relative;
width:200px;
height:200px;
background:green;
float:left;
margin-left:200px;
}
With the same HTML code used by Gert G in his answer, here is an alternative using display: inline-block;:
#wrapper {
width: 960px;
}
#leftcol {
display: inline-block;
width: 150px;
vertical-align: top;
}
#rightcol {
display: inline-block;
width: 800px;
}
Conditional comment for IE<8
#leftcol, #rightcol { display: inline; zoom: 1; }
#rightcol can have a width of 810px IF you strip whitespace between ending tag of #leftcol and the beginning one of #rightcol
if height of title & paragraphs height are static/
just write a margin-bottom to your left image. you dont need a extra column at right of the page/
height (title & paragraphs) = X;
margin-bottom (img) = X + 100; (for your text;)
btw text should be in a division/
max-width (img) = 150px;
min-width (div.all or body) = width(img)+width(your text at right) /
It's not easy to explain very well what I'm having problem with so I have attached an image:
http://test.richardknop.com/test.gif
Here is my simplified XHTML markup so far:
<div id="page">
<div id="content">
</div>
<div id="sidebar">
</div>
</div>
How to style it?
I'm getting a little bit desperate and I'm not even sure it's possible.
Like this:
#page {
position:relative;
overflow:hidden;
}
#page .images {
position:absolute; bottom:0; left: 0; width: $width-of-sidebar;
}
#sidebar {
padding-bottom: $height-of-the-image;
float:left;
}
To get background in the sidebar you'll need faux columns technique.
Richard, I think your thinking about the problem is wrong. You are thinking about these 2 items as one thing. You need to separate them.
Make footer/border a separate div and make sure it's always at the bottom. I think that's pretty straight forward.
Also make sure that your sidebar is the same size as your content. Put your images in the sidebar - and make them stick to the bottom like your footer. I usually use some sort of framework to make this easier - try out blueprint or elasticss

You can play around and make it centered and such - but this is the gist of it without using any frameworks.

I am facing an interesting problem while working on Google Map Page. Actually I want the Map DIV will cover the 70% of Width leaving 30% for My Menus and 60% of Height leaving 40% for my website banner.
When I assigned the div height and width in % the map will not render properly instead it either shrinks to top or left depending on the % attribute assigned. But when I explicitly assign height and width in px say 400px the map will render perfectly.
I have also tried the minwidth and minheight style attributes.
It really depends on your current HTML and CSS but here's one way to do it.
The main layout uses the YUI Grids framework with some tweaks to correct the height of the map. As Gutzofter mentioned the crux of the fix is to assign appropriate heights to all of the map's ancestor elements. The following code was tested on IE6, IE7, IE8, Chrome 3 and Firefox 3.5

Try using a a map-wrapper div around the map-canvas and set the percentages on the map-wrapper. You might want to check out this book. The book goes into detail about auto resizing. Excerpts are on google books, to read look into chapter 6. It is mainly done with some JavaScript and CSS.
