I have two buttons that appear side by side. The idea is that whenever the screen width changes, the buttons will grow or shrink accordingly. This is working fine. However, I'd like to have a 10px distance between the buttons, no matter what the screen width is. In my case as the screen width grows, the gap also grows which I'd like to avoid.
Here is the test code I have been working with:
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<style>
body {
margin:0;
padding: 0;
}
div.buttons {
width: 100%;
box-sizing: border-box;
padding: 0 5px;
}
a.left, a.right {
display: block;
width: 49%;
box-sizing: border-box;
background-color: #f00;
text-align: center;
}
a.left {
float: left;
}
a.right {
float: right;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="buttons">
<a class="left" href="">One</a>
<a class="right" href="">Two</a>
</div>
</body>
</html>
I can tell that giving a 1% to the gap will make it grow with the screen, but I'm trying to find a way of giving the gap a fixed size while having the button behave as expected.
EDITED TO ADD: I'm looking for a solution which not only would keep the gap fixed but that will also keep the left and right margins fixed as well. So 5px space to edge, button, 10px gap, button, 5px space to edge.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
I have a solution in this fiddle.
HTML
<div class="buttons">
<div class="button-container">
<a class="button">first</a>
</div><div class="button-container">
<a class="button">second</a>
</div>
</div>
CSS
.buttons {
width: 100%;
box-sizing: border-box;
padding: 0;
}
.button-container {
display: inline-block;
width: 50%;
box-sizing: border-box;
border: none;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
.button {
display: block;
box-sizing: border-box;
background-color: #f00;
text-align: center;
padding: 5px;
}
.button-container:nth-child(odd) .button {
margin-right: 5px;
}
.button-container:nth-child(even) .button {
margin-left: 5px;
}
Key points to take home. Firstly, you need to avoid any whitespace between the inline-block elements .button-container to avoid a rendered space. Otherwise, setting width:50% will end up wrapping (because your have two 50% wide items with an intervening space, which is more that 100% width). Secondly, using .button-container allows you to evenly split the buttons across the page using a set percentage. The spacing between buttons then becomes a margin interior to the container.
That's due to the fact that you links are aligned to the outer borders (via float), not to each other. To change it the way you want, remove the floats and center them, plus add a 10px margin-right on the left one:
(for the snippet I reduced the width to 48% since otherwise it won't fit into a small screen)
body {
margin:0;
padding: 0;
}
div.buttons {
width: 100%;
box-sizing: border-box;
padding: 0 5px;
text-align: center;
}
a.left, a.right {
display: inline-block;
width: 48%;
box-sizing: border-box;
background-color: #f00;
text-align: center;
}
a.left {
margin-right: 10px;
}
<div class="buttons">
<a class="left" href="">One</a>
<a class="right" href="">Two</a>
</div>
So here's a new version, fulfilling your later added additional requirements.
It gives the buttons absolute position and defines their width by defining their left and right borders 5px from the outer border and 5px each from the center (adding up to a 10px distance between them), using calc:
body {
margin:0;
padding: 0;
}
div.buttons {
width: 100%;
height: 1.6em;
}
a.left, a.right {
position: absolute;
display: block;
background-color: #f00;
text-align: center;
}
a.left {
left: 5px;
right: calc(50% + 5px);
}
a.right {
right: 5px;
left: calc(50% + 5px);
}
<div class="buttons">
<a class="left" href="">One</a>
<a class="right" href="">Two</a>
</div>

how can I create menu like on the picture?
Requirements:
Built using Bootstrap columns, must be responsive
In normal state, only Option and icon (green square) can be seen
OnHover: The Suboption (in blue rectangle) expands pushing Option up and also Caption in red rectangle appears, also pushing the whole Option up.
When one Menu item is hovered, all the others must stay down, not moving
Expanding with animation
Here's my fiddle attempt: http://jsfiddle.net/52VtD/7878/
HTML of one item (all are wrapped in a row):
<div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-3 nopadding item">
<div class="mask">
<div class="inner-wrapper">
<p>Option A</p>
<div class="hidding-guy">
<p>Hello</p>
Suboption
Suboption
Suboption
</div>
<i class="origami o-01"></i>
</div>
<div class="btn-red ">CAPTION</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
.nopadding {
padding: 0 !important;
margin: 0 !important;
}
.footer-menu-wrapper {
background: #ddd;
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
}
.footer-menu-wrapper .item {
position: relative;
}
.footer-menu-wrapper .item:hover .hidding-guy, .footer-menu-wrapper .item:hover .hidding-guy > * {
height: auto;
}
.footer-menu-wrapper .mask {
border: 1px solid #ccc;
width: 100%;
}
.footer-menu-wrapper .mask .hidding-guy {
height: 0px;
}
.footer-menu-wrapper .mask .hidding-guy > * {
display: block;
height: 0px;
}
.btn-red {
background: #e91333;
color: #fff;
width: 100%;
min-height: 66px;
border: 0px transparent;
text-align: center;
}
Alter your css to:
.footer-menu-wrapper .mask {
border: 1px solid #ccc;
width: 100%;
position: absolute;
background-color: #ddd;
bottom: 0;
}
now it behave like a dropup menu. Keep in mind that you must reset the positioning for the responsive layout like:
#media (max-width: 768px){
.footer-menu-wrapper .mask{
position: relative;
}
}

UPDATE DEMO with media query
UPDATE:
Hide the CAPTION - opacity: 0 and show it on hover.
Second hide the options - visibilety: hidden and also show it on hover.
This ist a quick solution! The rest should be simple css styling

I know it's been asked a few times, but upon playing around a bit I still couldn't center what I need to. What I'm looking to do it center those buttons vertically on the page. I want to put centered text above it, too.
My (sloppy) code: JsFiddle
HTML:
<div>
</div>
CSS:
div {
text-align: center;
}
a {
text-align: center;
margin: auto;
}
.cbtn {
display:inline-block;
width:60px;
height:60px;
border-radius:50px;
background:transparent;
border: solid gray 1px;
margin: 2px;
-o-transition:.5s;
-ms-transition:.5s;
-moz-transition:.5s;
-webkit-transition:.5s;
transition:.5s;
}
.cbtn:hover {
text-decoration:none;
background:#F3734F;
}
#mail {
background-image:url(http://data.novicode.com/data/img/mail.png);
background-position:50% 50%;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}
Here is one way of doing it, assuming you want the buttons centered both horizontally and vertically on the page.
The HTML is:
<div class="wrap">
<div class="button-wrap">
</div>
</div>
and the CSS is:
html, body {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
.wrap {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
.button-wrap {
position: absolute;
left: 0;
right: 0;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
height: 60px;
width: 350px;
margin: auto;
text-align: center;
}
You need to declare the width and height properties of the body and html elements to be 100%, and the same for div.wrap.
The trick is to wrap the links/buttons in div.button-wrap, which is absolutely positioned and given specific width and height values to match the buttons. The height of 60px is based on the height of the .cbtn, and the width of 350px is 5 times (60px + 2x2px + 2x1px + 4x1em) which is about 350px. However, since we can use text-align: center for centering the inline blocks, the exact width is not too critical, just make it wide enough.
The centering works by setting all the position values to 0 (left/right/top/bottom) and then setting margin: auto.
This is all based on CSS 2.1 so it should work in most browsers. The only limitation is the inline-block property, which IE7 does not recognize.
However, since you are using CSS2 animations, inline-block is probably okay.

You could set the following rules on the div:
div {
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
height: 50%;
margin-top: -(height of div);
margin-left: -(width of div);
}

I have a situation where I have one div of fixed width, containing an image pulled from Twitter, and another div of variable width containing user text of variable length. What I want to achieve is something like the following:
I can do this well enough with a single div that has background-image and padding-left. But I want to be able to apply border-radius to the img element, which simply won't be possible with a background-image.
If I do text-align: center on the outer div, it gets me halfway there. Here's a DEMO and a screenshot:
But this obviously isn't fully what I want.
How can I accomplish this?

As an added bonus, the text is vertically centered too!
HTML:
<div class="logo">
<div class="logo-container">
<img src="http://img.tweetimag.es/i/appsumo_b.png" />
</div>
<div class="logo-name">
AppSumo is a really really long title that continues down the page
</div>
</div>
CSS:
.logo {
background-color: #eee;
display: table-cell;
height: 100px;
position: relative;
text-align: center;
vertical-align: middle;
width: 600px;
}
.logo-container {
background-color: #fff;
border-radius: 10px;
left: 10px;
position: absolute;
top: 10px;
width: 75px;
}
.logo-name {
font: bold 28px/115% Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
padding-left: 85px;
}
Would it be something like this?
http://jsfiddle.net/uPPTM/6/
.logo {
width:80%;
margin:auto;
background-color: red;
}
.logo-container {
border: 1px solid gold;
width:73px;
height: 73px;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align:middle;
}
.logo-name {
display: inline-block;
}
You can float the image container (or image itself without the container) to the left, clearing anything the left... and then float the text to the left, clearing anything to the right.
.logo-container{
float:left;
clear:left;
}
.logo-name{
float:left;
clear:right;
}
You can adjust the distance of the text using margins.
.logo-name{
float:left;
clear:right;
margin-top:10px;
margin-left:5px;
}
Use absolute positioning with a left position to push the title text past the image.
http://jsfiddle.net/uPPTM/9/
.logo { width: 50px; }
.title {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 50px;
font-size: 32px;
text-align: center;
}
img {
border: 1px solid gray;
border-radius: 15px;
}
<div class="logo">

I have a list like this:
<html>
<head>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="testli.css">
</head>
<body>
<ul id='grok'>
<li>
<img src='na' class='cimg' />
<div class='cinner'>
<p>Title, max two lines.</p>
<p>Some longish text, max two lines, causes problems when too long.</p>
</div>
<div style='clear:both'></div>
</li>
<li>
<img src='na' class='cimg' />
<div class='cinner'>
<p>Title</p>
<p>Some longish text here which may wrap some and cause problems..</p>
</div>
<div style='clear:both'></div>
</li>
</ul>
</body>
</html>
// testli.css
* {
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
#grok {
list-style-type: none;
width: 200px;
}
#grok li {
background-color: lightgreen;
margin: 5px;
padding: 5px;
text-align: left;
}
.cimg {
width:70px;
height:44px;
float:left;
}
.cinner {
float: left;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
margin-left: 10px;
font:14px;
}
when the text in the p elements is short, the layout behaves as I want - the thumbnail and the text should appear as if they're in two separate columns. I'm basically looking to recreate the thumbnails youtube has for recommended items - thumbnail on the left, some text in another column to the right of it. Title and text each allowed two lines of text each.
If the text is too long, the cinner div gets placed below the thumbnail. What's the right way to force it to always be to the right?
Thanks
You could do it by setting a min-height on the <li> and then absolutely positioning the image to the left of the title and description:
#grok {
list-style-type: none;
width: 200px;
}
#grok li {
position: relative;
margin: 5px;
padding: 5px;
min-height: 44px;
/* min-height fix for IE6. Ideally this would be in an IE6 only stylesheet */
height: auto !important;
height: 44px;
background-color: lightgreen;
}
.cimg {
position: absolute;
left: 0;
top: 0;
width: 70px;
height: 44px;
}
.cinner {
padding: 0 0 0 80px; /* Makes room for the image so it doesn't overlap text */
font: 14px;
}
Add max-width to .cinner (if I don't mistaken - max-width: 110px).
I am using the following code to display a list of images and apply a drop shadow effect to each image. The images may vary in orientation but will always be a maximum of 120px.
To get this to work I am having to float:left the "shadow" container. By adjusting the margins of the container and it's image, I am able to simulate a drop shadow. (http://img200.imageshack.us/i/withfloat.png/)
The downside of this approach is that the image then becomes left aligned. If I remove the float the .shadow background spans the full width of the li and does not wrap the image.
(see above url but "withoutfloat.png")
How can I get the shadow div to wrap the image and keep it centered within the li?
Css:
<style type="text/css">
ul
{
list-style-type: none;
position: relative;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
li.box
{
display: inline;
float: left;
margin: 3px;
background: red;
position: relative;
}
.wraptocenter
{
display: table-cell;
text-align: center;
vertical-align: middle;
width: 120px;
height: 120px;
}
.wraptocenter *
{
vertical-align: middle;
}
.shadow
{
background: blue;
margin: 10px 0 0 10px !important;
margin: 10px 0 0 5px;
}
.shadow img
{
margin: -4px 6px 6px -4px;
}
</style>
Html:
<ul>
<li class="box">
<div class="wraptocenter">
<span>
<div class="shadow">
<img src="Handler.ashx?id=936&size=103" />
</div>
</span>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
Remove the float but add overflow:auto to the containing element. That will make the non-floating element contain its inner floating elements the way you expect.
