I'm trying to create a fixed Navbar using Project Clarity
I'm using it in my Angular project, they are using FlexBox, I have tried putting in position: fixed but it doesn't seem to work, anyone have any ideas ?
<clr-header class="header-6">
In order to fix the header so that content scrolls underneath it, your application needs to have the correct Application Layout. Our components work within this structure because A properly structured layout enforces an optimal, consistent experience across applications.
The general structure for A Clarity Application layout takes this form:
<div class="main-container">
<div class="alert alert-app-level">
...
</div>
<header class="header header-6">
...
</header>
<nav class="subnav">
...
</nav>
<div class="content-container">
<div class="content-area">
...
</div>
<nav class="sidenav">
...
</nav>
</div>
</div>
Obviously, you can get rid of the parts that may not be relevant to your app like: alert-app-level, subnav etc ...
You can see this working in a quick demo I made with inspiration from Bob Ross. As you can see the content scroll underneath the application header.
if someone has also either very this problem, or another problem where some css does not work within Angular:
Since we mostly structure our UI code in multiple components in Angular, and since each component puts its own host-tag in the generated DOM between the actual html tags, the clarity library has some problems with it.
So as a workaround, if you still want to be able to keep your current htmls as they are, you can define this css in each your component's css file:
:host { display: contents; }
This causes the component's box not to render; means the host tags are still visible in DOM, but they will not have any effect regarding CSS. And any clarity CSS will work again.

If I break down a navigation menu (navbar) into components such as this:
<div class="navbar">
<app-navbar-brand></app-navbar-brand>
<app-navbar-menu></app-navbar-menu>
</div>
or:
<div class="navbar">
<div class="navbar-brand">
<!-- navbar-items -->
</div>
<div class="navbar-menu">
<div class="navbar-start">
<!-- angular components -->
</div>
<div class="navbar-end">
<!-- angular components -->
</div>
</div>
Some padding and other properties seem to work incorrectly in the menu.
If I keep the entire navbar in one component, I don't see this problem.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong in Angular? Or is there something i've missed? It looks like the SASS is loaded in a weird way, but I cannot figure out why this is.
I ran into the same issue when using Bulma with Angular. The problem is because Bulma is built entirely using Flexbox. Angular component generated (pseudo) HTML tags, which are not using flexbox. I tried adjusting the component CSS style (i.e display, and width properties) seem to help, but not perfect. Hope that helps.
I can see lots of answers for this but not quite the right solutions..
Essentially i'm displaying numerous emails in a thread (looks like iMessage a bit) on a page. The messages are looped within a repeated element, with the HTML email displayed inside it.
I have no control over the HTML in the email content as it could be from anywhere.. the problem is that the HTML in the email is inheriting CSS styling from the page style sheets.. this is making it all look weird..
I can't overrule the CSS with a more specific CSS, as there could be any classes or id's coming in the email that match those in the main style sheet..
I've tried adding all:initial to the wrapper div like this:
div.sentMsgBody *{
all: initial !important;
}
This however seems to override any styles that comes with the email and so looks really naff..
Anyone got any ideas how to display the email content with its own HTML without taking on the main styles?
Thanks!!
Addition:
I've been asked to show my code, though that's quite tricky...
there's loops of a certain div in the page like this:
<div id="page">
<div class="sentMsgBody"></div>
<div class="sentMsgBody"></div>
<div class="sentMsgBody"></div>
</div>
Of course each loop of this div could have any HTML at all as its showing emails...
eg:
<div id="page">
<div class="sentMsgBody">
<div class="Header">My Email</div>
<div class="Main">This is my email body</div>
<div class="Footer">Email Footer</div>
</div>
<div class="sentMsgBody"> ... ... </div>
<div class="sentMsgBody"> ... ... </div>
</div>
Here the Header and Footer etc may take css from the main page...
I thought about iFrames but they are messy, i don't know how big the content will be for each one, are a bugger with being responsive too, and there could be dozens that have to be created dynamically from the content of each div that is loaded by ajax from a handler.
I have a page with two html files. I have exactly the same code for the footer in them. They use exactly the same CSS file but they look different and I still cannot find out why :
The code is here for the footer :
<div class="container_12">
<div class="grid_12"><footer>
<div class="socials">
facebook |
twitter |
google+
</div>
<div class="copy">COSMOSET © 2013 | Privacy Policy <!--{%FOOTER_LINK} -->
</div></footer>
</div>
</div>
Also if you visit the page here: HERE you can see the text-box-areas do not have the same transparent white background. I assume this one is a server issue (plesk). Because when i open the file on my PC (saved on my PC) it looks perfect.
If you go to the second link from the left (of your navigator) you can see that you have the following DOM structure:
The problem is that, on the page your provided in your post, the footer is a sibling of the <header>, <div class="clear"> and <div class="bg1"> elements, as you can see it in the following screenshot:
Your problem will get solved if you move the "container_12" to be a sibling of the elements I mentioned above.
LATER EDIT:
To answer your second question, for the #form textarea CSS selector you've added an extra . after the png extenstion:
I know questions about broken links get asked all the time, however my issue seems a bit different, and none of the solutions have worked.
Right now none of the links to other websites in my nav section worked when clicked. It registers that they are there, and if you right click it and select "open in new tab" it works, but otherwise, nada. A few relative links (if thats the term for the href="#xxx" link to content on the page) to modal popups work fine though.
My HTML Code is listed below, as well as a Pastebin link to the CSS (so that I don't clutter up the box).
Removing the class="navigation" from the list tag seems to fix the link issue. Leaving the class on the tag but removing all the relevant CSS from the stylesheet, however, does not eliminate the issue and just removes the styling. I can't figure out why this would be the case.
I've tried setting the z-indices of my background, menu and nav to 1,2,3 (and 3,2,1 just for the hell of it) respectively so that they don't interfere, as recommended in other questions here, but to no avail. Anyone have any ideas?
CSS: http://pastebin.com/1KVTdBvF

<div class="menu">
<div class="container clearfix">
<div id="logo" class="fleft">
<img src="images/logo.png" />
</div>
<div id="nav" class="fright">
<ul class="navigation">
<li data-slide="1">Home</li>
<li>Forum</li>
<li>Wiki</li>
<li>Government</li>
<li>Charter</li>
<li>In-Game</li>
<li>Applicants</li>
<li>IRC</li>
<div class="clear"></div>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
Your problem isn't CSS, it's your jQuery. This, in particular:
links.click(function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
dataslide = $(this).attr('data-slide');
goToByScroll(dataslide);
});
When you find your links, like this:
var links = $('.navigation').find('li');
You have to somehow exclude the ones that go to external sites. Maybe by giving the modal links their own class name or something.
I read about semantic HTML online...
Semantic HTML means using HTML tags for their implied meaning, rather than just using (meaningless) div and span tags for absolutely everything.
If you use <h1> instead of <div class="header">, and <h2> instead of , et cetera, Google and other search engines will interpret your headers as being important titles in your page. This way, when people search on the words in your headers and sub-headers, your page will be considered more relevant (and rank higher). Plus, it's much shorter and cleaner.
So, below is semantic,
<h1>My Website Name</h1>
<h2>My Website Tagline </h2>
What about this below?
<div id="header">
<h1><span class="hide">My Website Name</span></h1>
<h2><span class="hide">My Website Tagline</span></h2>
</div>
I tend to combine h tags with div and span tags like above - is this practised considered as the lack of semantic?
The reason why I have the span with the hide class is that I want to display the site logo instead of text. So use CSS to set the background of h1 as image and then hide the text. is this incorrect practise?
Then, if I don't use div, what can I use to make a box around the h1 and h2?
As far as I know, html 5 is not fully ready yet, we must not use <header> yet, must we??
Thanks.
I would do something like the following if I was going to use HTML5:
<header>
<hgroup>
<h1>My Website Name</h1>
<h2>My Website Tagline</h2>
</hgroup>
</header>
Remember to add display: block; to the HTML5 elements and createElement for IE in the CSS though. The header element shows the block is a header and the hgroup element is there to show that the second h* element is a sub heading, so shouldn't be taken into account when calculating the header levels in the document.
If you don't want to use HTML5 yet then you could use divs instead of the new elements, and use the HTML5 element names as the class value. This will make it easier to switch over when you feel comfortable using HMTL5 on a live site.
You don't really need to use the span elements. You can use tricks such as using a large negative text-indent in the CSS to hide the text off the screen.
If you want to display a logo instead of text, use an image. Google say so (even if they don't know the difference between a tag and an attribute). Taglines, BTW, are not subheadings (and the site name (and thus logo) is usually only a heading on the homepage).
<div id="header">
<h1><img src="foo.png" alt="My Website Name"></h1>
<p><img src="foo.png" alt="My Website Tagline"></p>
</div>
Unfortunately, Internet Explorer 8 does not recognize many HTML5 tags, and when I've tested it, I was unable to set CSS values for the <header> tag, for example. So for now I would recommend that you continue to use div tags to group your semantic meaning.
As a sidenote, Google does not like hidden text, and if you have a lot of it, it will consider it deceptive coding. One is probably fine, but you'd be better off using the alt attribute on the image tag.
Nobody suggested that you should not use DIVs at all... semantic HTML does not mean there cannot be div or span tags in your code. It just only means that whenever possible (there is a specific tag available for a specific semantic meaning) you should try to give semantic meaning.
h2 is not to be used for taglines, as somebody else already suggested.
Also, in my interpretation (some will argue), h1 is not for the name of your website. It is the title for the content on a specific page.
I agree with #David Dorward, the tag line should be in a p tag.
Your example (wrapping the header elements with a div) is perfectly acceptable, though I would like to raise a small caution: Be careful that you do not get in the habit of wrapping everything in div tags. For example:
<div class="content">
<div class="list">
<ul>
<li>something</li>
<li>something</li>
<li>something</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
Since a ul tag is already a block element, the above markup would be better off like this:
<div class="content">
<ul class="list">
<li>something</li>
<li>something</li>
<li>something</li>
</ul>
</div>
And then just style the ul to look like the div.
On the matter of displaying the logo as an image:
If your logo is text-based, or has text in it, you would be better off doing the following:
HTML
<div id="header">
<h1 class="logo">My Logo Text - My Website Tagline</h1>
</div>
CSS
.logo { text-indent:-9999px;background-image:url(thelogo.jpg) no-repeat;}
/* Also add height and width based on your logo height and width */
