Div width changes when changed from fixed position - css

I'm using wordpress theme twenty fourteen, trying to have my footer div width be 100% and centered. I made some changes to the "additional css" to no avail. I copied the following code from another source, which made the width correct, but only when I'm using position:fixed;.
.footer {
position: fixed;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
If I change position to anything else, the width shrinks down to maybe 20%, and shifts to the right. I've also tried deleting the first 3 lines (position, left and bottom), I've tried putting in overrides for margin and padding (eg padding: 0;), but nothing works.
How can I have my footer width at 100% and be in static position?

Disregard! I figured it out. My text was in a footer widget, with its own css. Changing the width there solved my problem
.footer-sidebar .widget {
/*width: 25%; */
width: 100%;
}

Image Not Staying Within Parent Div

I am trying to make some responsive cards. I have the cards completed and spaced out properly. On the front of the cards I want an image on the top of the cards and a title in the middle. The title is fine and the image is fine except for the right side of the image.
Here is the CSS code for the image (image is in an img tag in HTML page with a class of "image"):
div .image {
padding: 5%;
height: 45%;
width: 100%;
}
The right side for some reason is ignoring the padding and sticking out of the card parent div. Any ideas why?
did you already set div's width?
also as far i know is no need to set image's height if you already set it's width to 100%
anyway here some example
div { width: 200px; height: 150px; padding: 6px; }
div img { width: 100%; }
You set the width to be 100% and padding 5%. Make sure you have:
box-sizing: border-box;
for the parent.
Also without the full example of code, hard to answer. Can use overflow: hidden; on the parent to hide that part sticking out.

Body element showing behind Content Wrapper with a width of 100%

I have a contentWrapper class which contains all of the elements on my page. For some reason, the navigation takes up what appears to be 100% of the body and then some. I cannot however get the following elements, the slider and divs below, to stretch to fill the same width. There is always extra room to scroll to the right which displays the background color. I have made it pink in the fiddle its easy to see.
body {
background-color: black;
}
.contentWrapper {
height: 100vh;
width: 100%;
background-color: black;
}

Any suggestions? I feel like it could be an easy fix, deleting sections of the page at a time did not seem to remedy the issue.
So it looks like your .cycle-overlay is 100% wide and left is set to 20px. This is pushing everything over and revealing the background. Setting the width to 300px got rid of it for me.
JSFiddle
.cycle-overlay {
position: relative;
top: -200px;
left: 20px;
z-index: 999;
width:200px;
}

How to show an image below a div both horizontally centered on the page?

I have this layout:
Code here: http://m6000225.ferozo.com/test/
I need the blue and brown image to lay below the main content div, and both be aligned regardless of the window width, both centered horizontally.
I implemented a css tip I read on this site, which is having a div with absolute position and left: 50% and an img inside with relative position and left: -50%.
It works fine, except for the fact that it pushes the page width to the right, as you can see in the screenshot, the scrollbar can be seen.
3rd party lib solutions like jQuery are welcome, but I'd prefer plain CSS.
PS: I also need something similar below the footer, but I guess using the same solution with a negative bottom value should work, right?
PS2: Extending the blue-brown strip to both borders of the window is no problem as I already used another div with absolute position and background-repeat: repeat-x.
The scroll bar is appearing because of the left: 50%; on the class .header-image. You should drop that altogether. Since that tag has a width set, when you push it over 50% it falls outside the window forcing the scroll bar to appear.
After you drop the left call, you should then set the width of that div to the width of the window, not a specific value in pixels. Use Width: 100%. So, that tag should look like:
.header-image {
height: 245px;
position: absolute;
top: 40px;
width: 100%;
z-index: -1;
}
After that, you'll need to re-center the image contained within the div. To do that, instead of using positions (which rely on set boundaries), give the element auto margins. Use :
.header-image img {
display: block;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
That will recenter the image. Please let me know if this is what you were looking for!
Per Paulie_D's suggestion:
.header-image {
position:absolute;
z-index: -1;
top: 40px;
width: 100%;
height: 245px;
background-image: url('header.png');
background-position: center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
That did it.

How to make a flexible-height modal with fixed header

I've created a really simple modal that allows the content to decrease or expand without running off the page - always leaving 10% margin on the top and bottom. When the page isn't tall enough to contain all the modal content, the entire modal becomes scrollable.
See jsfiddle here
Is it possible, using only CSS, to replicate this behavior but only have the modal body be scrollable, so the header is always fixed. I've tried a few things, but haven't come up with the solution yet. Making the header position: fixed almost works, I have to reposition it over the modal box and then try to add padding to the body so the content is visible under the header, which doesn't budge the scrollbars down. I always prefer to exhaust all the css alternatives before I bind some js to window resize and manually manipulate the body height.
This might be late, but I had to solve a similar issue of fixed header, fluid height, fluid width.
This is how I tackled the issue:
Give your elements a border-box box-sizing. Use a wrapper to center and create a bounding box. This can be a fluid one with min-width and max-width + percentages.
Give your content element an overflow-y of auto and a max-height of 100%;
Use box-sizing:border-box;
The complete code should be something like this:
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.modal {
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.8);
}
.wrap {
position: relative;
margin: 0 auto;
display: block;
width: 90%;
/* Change the max-width value on a media query breakpoint to make this example more "responsive" */
max-width: 500px;
height: 90%;
padding: 30px;
}
.modal header {
height: 30px;
padding: 0;
color: #FFF;
background-color: #007;
}
.modal .body {
background-color: #FFF;
max-height: 100%;
overflow-y: auto;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/mariomc/EhR7r/
Applying the max-height and overflow-y settings to .body rather than to .wrap...?
Edit 1:
Nothing's turned up so far within the constraints, which suggests either JavaScript or straying from the constraints (using % for the header height or px margins).
Edit 2:
Here's an initial demo using % for the header height. I added a px min-height to the header tag to prevent the header from almost disappearing on very small screens, at the expense of the top margin (which is reduced on very small screens).
On a screen >= 400px tall, it should work exactly as per the requirements (40px header with 10% height). If the header were reduced in height, it would support slightly-smaller screens (a 30px header with 10% height would support >= 300px screens). Here's a demo with a 30px header.
It's a clumsy solution, but it's the only one that turned up without using JavaScript.
Also, note that I added an h2 and a .content tag and moved the padding:10px; there, to avoid combining % height and padding in the same elements (which leads to a taller height than the % value specified).

CSS: Correct behaviour of min-height in combination with margin & padding

Currently I'm working on a website for myself. I decided to go for a header content footer design where the footer shall be stuck to the bottom all the time. Hence I set up a wrapper with position: relative, containing the header (#top), content (#middle), and footer (#bottom). Bottom got position: absolute with top: 0.
I've also set height: 100% for html and body and a appropriate padding-bottom for #middle to ensure that my footer won't overlap #middle.
Please find a simplified sample version here: http://www.webdevout.net/test?0w
Here is the CSS in question:
* {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
html, body {height: 100%}
#wrapper {
position: relative;
background-color: #ccc;
min-height: 100%;
}
#middle {
background-color: #900;
padding-bottom: 200px;
}
#top, #bottom {
width: 100%;
height: 200px;
background-color: #bb5;
}
#bottom {position: absolute; bottom: 0;}
Now here's my problem: my understanding of the box-model is, that one should be able to achieve the same (keeping the space for the footer) with margin-bottom instead of padding-bottom for #middle, but margin-bottom isn't applied to it. I've read that min-height doesn't consider padding, border or margin, but the padding is considered here while border and margin aren't.
FF and Chrome show different behaviors when margin-bottom is used instead of padding-bottom for #middle: while Chrome just ignores the margin, FF applies it below #wrapper. My general idea would have been that my container should grow to the total size of its content with min-height, including height + padding + border + margin of #middle, but obviously it just grows to overall size of #top + height of #middle + padding of #middle.
I wonder what is the correct behavior and why padding and margin aren't interchangeable to keep the space for the footer.
While an explanation would be much appreciated, I'd be also thankful for a link to a source which could help me. I'm sorry if this duplicates another post, but I didn't find something (neither here nor via Google) fitting my special problem.
Thank you!
i had faced same problem like u are facing.
You have to use this piece of code.
#middle {
display: table;
margin: 2% auto;
width: 100%;
}
use of display : table works for me to set margin from top and bottom.
