I am trying to float the image to left, wrap the description around the image, and float the location to the bottom left by using float and clear properties: https://jsfiddle.net/darf4ama/5/

aside img {border: 2px dotted yellow; float: left;}
aside:first-of-type p:first-of-type {border: 2px dotted blue;}
aside:first-of-type p:nth-of-type(2) {border: 2px dotted green; float: left; overflow: auto;}
aside:first-of-type p:last-child {border: 2px dotted red; float: left; clear: both; font-style: italic;}
I think I have floated the image and the location and have cleared these two properties correctly. However I can't seem to float and clear paragraph 2. What am I doing wrong here?
Float does change the behaviour of elements
you might consider of using flex box
if you want to have the image and paragraph next to each other with a margin to it
check the following snippet
aside{
display:flex;
border:1px solid red;
}
aside img {border: 2px dotted yellow; }
aside p:nth-child(2){
margin:10px;
border:2px solid green;
}

When I hover over the anchor tag, it flickers. It's because there are vertical gaps between the lines of the wrapped anchor tag. Moreover, if I happen to click between the lines, the link doesn't activate. I would like to get rid of this flickering and vertical hover gaps that cause it. The rest of the layout including apparent line height and button position (on the same line as the last word of the anchor tag) should stay the same.
I was thinking about this for a couple of days with no luck. The best alternative I have is using inline-block on the anchor tag, but that clears the button to the next line, which wastes too much space.
body {
line-height: 1.5;
width: 300px;
}
a {
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover {
text-decoration: underline;
}

Added:
a {
padding: 4px 0;
}
It'll give the a element an extra space from top and bottom, and it doesn't affect the gaps.

I need layout with 3 columns with an image spanning across 2 in top right corner. Found several solutions, best one here:
Advanced CSS tricks: How to span an image over multiple columns in a CSS3 site layout?
But: Both don't work with Chrome. The negative top-margin makes the text disappear behind a non discoverable something.
I used the solution with the absolute positioning of the floater, as in the other solution the left margin of the floater would be a reason why the text becomes invisible...
I used div#floater to represent the image, has same effect.
HTML:
<div id="outer">
<div id="floater">
</div>
<div id="inner">
<h1>Title1</h1>

And the CSS code:
#outer{
position: relative;
font-size: 10pt;
width: 100vw;
min-height: 88vh;
column-count: 3;
column-gap: 1vw;
padding-top: 54vw;
background-color: red;
}
#outer #floater{
position: absolute;
right: 0;
top: 0;
width: 66vw;
height: 50vw;
margin-bottom: 2vw;
display: block;
border: 2px solid blue;
}
#outer #inner{
max-width: 100vw;
background-color: green;
margin-top: -11vw;
}
I made a fiddle, in Chrome 'Title 1' diappears, in Safari and Firefox no problem. Any suggestions?

You can give a try to backface-visibilty to cure that visual bug.
#outer #inner > *{
backface-visibility:hidden;
}

For infos, Here is another example with a different approach (a pseudo element is pulling up first col content. https://codepen.io/gc-nomade/pen/boZaVJ
I've got my footer with four columns inside a container. It needs to be inside the container to line up with the content above.
My problem is I want the left column to have a background of red, however currently it will not stretch because it's obviously in a container.
How can I stretch it full width to the left whilst keeping it lined up with the content above.
<footer class="cf">
<div class="container">
<div class="test11" style="width: 25%; float: left; background: red;">

You cannot do it directly like you said "stretch" it as far as I know.
However, I made a little workaround for you here
It consists of:
using pseudo-element :before (assigned to the first footer column using :nth-of-type(1)) which we'll use for creating same red background to place on the left of the first column
positioning the :before element to position: absolute; in order to use left: 0; which will place the red background on the left edge of last positioned element
now our :before element is positioned relatively to the closest positioned ancestor - which is in our case the html element itself. But we want it to be positioned relatively to the footer which is not positioned yet, we do so using position: relative; on it (more on that here)
adding content: " "; height: 100%; width: 25%; so it appears actually
adding z-index: -1; to which places the before element behind the actual element. Read about it here
adding z-index: 0; to the footer element to include it to the positioning context
adding background-color: red;
final added code:
footer{
z-index: 0;
position: relative;
}
.test11:nth-of-type(1):before{
position: absolute;
left: 0;
content: " ";
height: 100%;
width: 25%;
z-index: -1;
background-color: red;
}
Few tips:
Don't use inline styles. Just don't
Use cf class to wrap just the floated elements (not e.g. footer containig them in your case)
For your future questions, it would be great, if you'd provided all the relating code, so people who want to help you could reproduce (and eventually find the solution) it as quickly as possible. (I had to include clearfix to css)
Hope this helps. Good luck!
Set container class width to 100%
.container {
width: 100%;
margin: 0 auto;
}
I am having a problem setting up the css properly

#content { background: #777; margin-left: 200px; width: auto; height: 100%; }
#wrapper { background: #357; height: auto; padding: 10px;}
#column1 { background: #0f0; width: 66%; float: left; }
#column2 { background: #f00; width: 33%; float: right; }
#text1 { background: white; width:80%; min-width: 300px; margin: 0 auto;}

This is supposed to be a page with fixed sidebar on left and fluid content area on the right. In short pages I want the background color of #content extend to the bottom of screen (this works). On long pages I want that background to extend to the end of page (this does not).
I've added colors to all elements to see what's going where, but eventually the #content background will be white with 0.9 transparency, and there will be a background image on body.
How to fix that?
Update: see working example here: http://jsbin.com/AXUmALU/1/edit?html,output - just scroll the output up to see the break in colors.
I think I have what you want here. In the css I have added some selectors for a clearfix class, which is very common. It looks like this:
.clearfix:before,
.clearfix:after {
content: " ";
display: table;
}
.clearfix:after {
clear: both;
}
.clearfix {
*zoom: 1;
}
And I added that class to the #content This css is from HTML5 Boilerplate, which you can google. I also changed
#content { height: 100%; } to #content { min-height: 100%; }
so that the content can expand beyond the size of the screen if it needs to.
I need two DIV to be put side by side and aligned vertically at their bottom.
The orange div doesn't have a width or height. It can grow depending of his content
I should be able to use padding and margin of the green div
I would like to have a solution that doesn't use javascript
See: http://jsfiddle.net/thirtydot/J9eds/
I've used display: inline-block combined with vertical-align: bottom.
HTML:
<div id="container">
<div id="left">
left<br />left<br />left<br />left<br />left<br />left<br />
leftleftleftleftleftleft
</div>
<div id="right"></div>
</div>
CSS:
#container {
border: 1px solid red;
float: left;
}
#left, #right {
border: 2px solid red;
background: #ccc;
vertical-align: bottom;
display: inline-block;
/* ie6/7 */
*display: inline;
zoom: 1;
}
#right {
margin: 20px 20px 0 20px;
padding: 20px;
width: 100px;
}
Not 100% sure, but something like this should work:
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="orange"></div>
<div class="green"></div>
</div>
div.wrapper div {
position: relative;
float: left;
bottom: 0px;
}
May not even need the float.
This was some fun practice :) Its probably not the best answer, but it should get the job done.
html:
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<div id="div3">testing a whole<br/> bunch <Br/>of text and content t<br/>hat this co<br/>uld co<br/>ntain<br/> hadahdee<br/> wha da da deet</div>
</td>
<td>
<div id="div4">nick</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
css:
td
{
vertical-align:bottom;
}
#div3
{
border:solid 5px blue;
float:left;
}
#div4
{
width:50px;
height:20px;
border:solid 5px red;
float:right;
}
see code in jsfiddle. add margins to the divs if you'd like
I am sure you'll get something better but to get started this seems to work.
in the css sheet
#box1{
background-color:#FFFF99;
width: 350px;
height: auto;

I think you need an absolute left position for the second box.
What worked for me was applying this style to both divs:
.bottom-align {
vertical-align:bottom; display:inline-block; float:none;
}
Then between both divs I had to remove the pseudospace by adding a blank comment:
</div><!-- ---><div>

After some hours of working and a terrible headache i think that the perfect solution is to add some margin-botton and margin-top elements.
I really hate to add specific pixels or change percentage each time into my CSS file but i found it as the perfect solution in my problem.
I used <table> instead of <div>, but it works with <div> too.
