Hey friends I'm writing the media query for the footer of my website. I'm starting on a max-width of 425px. The first thing that gets messed up when i shrink the screen to this size is shown here - The red line doesn't add up, so i adjust and fix it, but when i shrink the screen to a max-width of 375px the red line moves again, so I create another media query with a max-width of 375px and adjust the line and fix it at 375, but now when i move the screen back up to 425 that line moves again? completely ignoring that style. So i have to adjust it again. But this then messes it up at 375??? What's happening? It's back and forth plz help -Example below
1st thing I do when I resize the screen to 425px and see the problem(as shown in the picture
`#media screen and (max-width: 425px) {
.social .inner:after {
margin-top: -40px;
}
}`
The above code aligns the red line where it needs to be when the screen has a max width of 425px. However when I shrink the screen to 375px the line moves again so maybe I do something like this
`#media screen and (max-width: 375px) {
.social .inner:after {
margin-top: -38px;
}
}`
This fixes at 375px. What now happens though is when i go back to 425px the line moves again? and then if that wasn't enough if you shrink down to 375px its misaligned??? Try it out and see

I couldn't reproduce the problem here (or I didn't understand it completely). But let me point some possible problems with the CSS code there:
To create the red lines, you create an element after the content of the sections. To adjust the position, you are setting the margin to a negative value. This is problematic because the size of the section is not constant, so, the red line will have a sort of undefined position (actually it is bottom of section minus some pixels).
You can set the margin to 0 to verify how the size of the section is volatile (it will change when a line wraps, if the font changes, maybe from browser to browser, etc). I recommend instead using a natural flow, and add a line where its position is. A simple example could be:
header {
width: 300px;
}
h1 {
margin: 0;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
.line {
height: 2px;
background: black;
}
.red-line {
height: 2px;
background: red;
width: 30%;
margin-top: -2px;
}
<header>
<h1>Quick Links</h1>
<div class="line"></div>
<div class="red-line"></div>
</header>
The negative margin here works because .red-line will always be 2px below .line.
Cya!
I did check the other questions, but none of them fixed my problem. When I resize the page, my elements are moving everywhere, all squashed up. I even tried doing a wrapper div, and that didn't help. Are we allowed to post web sites? Because I have the site live.

I am going crazy. I have read dozens of blog articles and different stackoverflow postings but I am unable to vertically center a FontAwesome icon which is placed as content inside a css before pseudo element of a link element.
This is my CSS Code:
a.button {
background-color: green;
padding: 5px 10px;
color: #ffffff;
cursor: pointer;
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
}
a.button.forward {
padding-right: 35px;
}
a.button.back {
padding-left: 35px;
}
a.button.back:before {
font-family: FontAwesome;
content: "\f100";
font-size: 1em;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 10px;
}
And thats the HTML code:
<a class="button back">back to<br/>whatever</a>
Here you can find a fiddle which shows my problem: https://jsfiddle.net/r1vysfaf/1
UPDATE:
I want to avoid using javascript to solve the styling issue. Furthermore the text of the link is dynamic and therefore it is not a solution to use "constant magic" spacings for paddings/margin/top.
Use display: table for parent and table-cell for child and alter your css as following:
a.button {
background-color: green;
padding: 5px 10px;
color: #ffffff;
cursor: pointer;
position: relative;
display: table;
}
a.button.forward {
padding-right: 35px;
}
a.button.back {
padding-left: 10px;
}
a.button.back:before {
font-family: FontAwesome;
content: "\f100";
font-size: 1em;
line-height: 1em;
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
padding: 0 10px 0 0;
}
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<a class="button back">back to<br/>whatever</a>
UPDATE
Added the forward button, plus position values in ems so an increase or decrease of font sizes or element will not offset the icon.
Instead of absolute , use relative on the pseudo-element.

I've seen some posts about this issue, but nothing's working for me right now. I have a div inside of which are many spans. The spans are running off the page. Can anyone help me please wrap the spans to keep them on the page?
HTML:
<div id="creditsbar">
<span class="title">Writing</span> <span class="name">Bob, Mary</span>
<span class="smallsquare">■</span>
<span class="title">Editing</span>
<span class="name">Mary, Bob</span>
<span class="smallsquare">■</span>
<span class="title">Design</span>
<span class="name">Bob</span>
<span class="smallsquare">■</span>
<span class="title">Development</span>
<span class="name">Mary</span>
<span class="smallsquare">■</span>
</div>
CSS:
#creditsbar {
width: 100%;
background color: lightgray;
color: #333;
font-family: "Muli", Helvetica, Arial;
padding-left: 20%;
max-height: 10%;
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
z-index: 3;
padding-bottom: 10px;
max-width: 100%;
vertical-align: top;
}
#creditsbar span {
word-wrap: normal;
display: inline-block;
}
#creditsbar .title {
text-transform: uppercase;
font-size: 80%;
font-weight: 600;
padding-right: 5px;
}
#creditsbar .name {
}
#creditsbar .smallsquare {
padding: 0 10px;
}
It's because of padding-left: 20%; inside
#creditsbar {
width: 100%;
color: #333;
font-family: "Muli", Helvetica, Arial;
padding-left: 20%;
}
remove that line and it will work fine
else use box-sizing: border-box; as suggested by #Andy
In my code below, how do I get the the text in the class="author" to right align underneath the text in class="label"? In the example below, the "e" in "Author name" should right align underneath the ":' in "Answered by:". Thanks.

You can use 'inline-block' on the '.author-area':
.author-area {
margin-left: 30px;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: top;
}
The 'vertical-align' option stops the div from sticking out above the others.
Theres a couple of options. But you can try to float the elements to the left and set a text-align:right to the author-area DIV.
<style type="text/css">
.action {
display: inline;
float: left;
}
.add-box {
margin-left: 40px;
display: inline;
float: left;
}
.share-button {
margin-left: 30px;
display: inline;
float: left;
}
.flag {
margin-left: 30px;
display: inline;
float: left;
}
.author-area {
margin-left: 30px;
display: inline;
float: left;
text-align: right;
}
.label {
margin: 0;
display: inline;
}
.author {
margin: 0;
}
.gray-button {
background: #C0C0C0;
font-size: 14px;
margin:0;
padding: 10px;
border: 1px solid #C0C0C0;
-webkit-border-radius: 6px;
-moz-border-radius: 6px;
border-radius: 6px;
cursor: pointer;
}
</style>
I always like to use a CSS grid system, such as

to do my div positioning etc with... makes it a snap to do things like you outline above
