I'm trying to create a menu which will have an image in the middle of it. For example three links to the left & three to the right of the image, each menu item also has to list all child pages.
The parent level menu items have to dynamically update the text based on what has been entered in the CMS but the user doesn't have to be able to reorder or add / remove items from the menu.
What is the best way of going about doing the above? My initial thought was to hard code all the pages & use get_permalink() to get the URLs encase they change but this wouldn't take all the requirements listed above into account.
Here Is Ans that you want. for details follow link
In Below example logo is outside from ul class but then also you can set logo in between li class. so logo in middle of menu.

I've been trying to get multiple background images on my page but I couldn't get more than 2, so I started to think that I might use divs instead. But when I use divs I got like 5 white pixels left at the top and and sides of the screen, that was until I changed the position to absolute but then my navbar was stuck behind the div... If anyone could please help me fixing my issue.
My code isn't that good, but this is what I have at the moment:
#P1Tekstvlak1_1 {
background-image: url("DakB1.jpg");
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
}

Remove the absolute positioning and then apply a CSS reset like the one here . Browsers have some styling attributes it applies by default for accessibility purposes. You should remove them. I do this before starting to build any web UI.
Note: Absolute positioning will stack elements versus applying layout to them. That is why you are seeing it behind your NAV
I am making a horizontal navigation bar with a image in it, the nav bar has four links in total one of which is a image link, however the image link doesn't line up with the rest of the links on the nav bar i want to drop it down by a pixel or 2, but every time i try and reposition that image it brings the rest of the links in the div tag with it.
{ position: absolute; } and { position: relative; } puts the image link on top of the other links

Try the following:

I have searched extensively and seen numerous examples on how to vertical-align text using the vertical-align property and the line-height property. However, all my efforts seem to bear no fruit as I am unable to get my text to align vertically. How do I do vertically align text to be centered? The height properties are not fixed so I can't use line-height.
HTML
<nav>
<ul>
<li>Login</li>
<li>Register</li>
<li>Programmes Offered</li>
</ul>
</nav>
CSS
nav
{
height: 30%;
width: 100%;
}
nav ul
{
height: 100%;
margin: 0px;
}
nav ul li
{
height: 33%;
width: 100%;
vertical-align: middle;
}
you may use a pseudo element displayed as an inline-box using full height of li and vertical-aligned to midlle. DEMO
body, html {
height:100%; /* needed for demo */
}
nav {
height: 50%; /* increased for demo */
width: 100%;
}
nav ul {
height: 100%;
margin: 0px;
}
nav ul li {
height: 33%;
box-shadow:inset 0 0 0 1px; /* show me li , for demo */
}
nav ul li:before {
content:'';
height:100%;
display:inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
edit
If you also reset display and vertical-align on <a>, links can be spread on a few lines (demo below):
body,
html {
height: 100%;
}
nav {
height: 70%; /* height set for snippet demo purpose, could be really too much */
width: 100%;
}
nav ul {
height: 100%; /* will follow height, inherit height value , set in nav if any avalaible */
margin: 0px;
}
nav ul li {
height: 33%;
/* see me and my center*/
box-shadow: inset 0 0 0 1px;
background:linear-gradient(to top, rgba(0,0,0,0.1) 50%, rgba(0,0,0,0.2) 50%);
}
nav ul li:before {
content: '';
height: 100%;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
a {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
<nav>
<ul>
<li>Login
</li>
<li>Register
</li>
<li>Programmes<br/> Offered
</li>
</ul>
</nav>
If you can use flexbox, you can get away with the following css:
CSS
ul li a {
display:flex; // Enables flexbox
justify-content: center; // Center on main axis
align-items: center; // Center on cross axis
}
Update ( using auto margins )
You can also do it like this:
ul li { display:flex }
li a { margin: auto }
/* These rules are just to make things easier to see. */
nav {
margin: 0 auto;
margin-top: 5rem;
border: 1px dotted green;
width: 100%;
}
ul {
padding: 0;
display: flex;
justify-content: space-around;
}
li {
height: 3rem;
padding: 2rem;
border: 1px dotted red;
}
/* Here are what I am trying to illustrate */
ul li {
display: flex;
}
a {
margin: auto;
/* or adjust them one by one, by targeting
the ones you want and setting
using each margin like this:
margin-top: auto;
margin-right: auto;
margin-bottom: auto;
margin-left: auto;
*/
}
<nav>
<ul>
<li>Login</li>
<li>Register</li>
<li>Programmes Offered</li>
</ul>
</nav>
vertical-align aligns inline elements with their siblings.. unless used in a table cell.
I don't think there's a by-the-book way of vertically aligning.. but this should work:
D E M O
nav ul li
{
background:#f1f1f1;
height: 33%;
width: 100%;
border-top:1px solid #e0e0e0;
}
nav ul li a
{
display:block;
position:relative;
top:50%;
-webkit-transform:translate(0,-50%);
-moz-transform:translate(0,-50%);
transform:translate(0,-50%);
}
Have you tried with
nav ul li a
{
height: 33%;
width: 100%;
vertical-align: 5px; //(you can make it 10px or -10px, just so it fits your style)
}
Your text is within the a tag, so adding a in the css may solve your problem :)
i am trying to center my css navigation bar but cant figure out why is not working, where am i doing wrong. i want it in the top center of the page.
i tried margin:0 auto but it wont work
here is my code:
<style>
ul {
list-style-type: none;
padding: 0;
overflow:hidden;
}
a:link,a:visited {
margin:0 auto;
display:block;
width: 120px;
font-weight:bold;
color:#FFFFFF;
text-align:center;
padding:4px;
text-decoration:none;
text-transform:uppercase;
}
a:hover, a:active {
background-color:#7A991A;
}
li {
float: left;
}
#menu {
background-color:#98bf21;
}
</style>
<div id="menu">
<header>
<ul>
<li>Home</li>
<li>News</li>
<li>Articles</li>
<li>Forum</li>
<li>Contact</li>
<li>About</li>
</ul>
</header>
</div>
Change your last two CSS rules to:
li {
display:inline-block;
}
#menu {
background-color:#98bf21;
text-align:center;
}
jsFiddle example
margin: 0 auto; only works on items that have defined widths. However, the way you currently have it written, each a tag is attempting to center, when you really want to center the ul. Here is a great way to center that when you don't know the width of your ul. Use these styles in your header, ul and li elements. Add styling to your a tags to suit.
header {
float: left;
width: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
position: relative;
}
ul {
float: left;
list-style: none;
position: relative;
left: 50%;
}
li {
display: block;
float: left;
position: relative;
right: 50%;
}
What's going on here is we're setting the header to full width, and then pushing the ul half way across the width of the browser. Then we push the li's back half the width of the ul, which now centers them on the page.
Here is a link with a very helpful tutorial about doing this very thing: http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/beautiful-css-centered-menus-no-hacks-full-cross-browser-support
Good luck!
Use the inline-block css magic :)
JSFiddle
li {
display: inline-block;
}
#menu {
background-color:#98bf21;
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: center;
width: 80%;
}
I had the same problem until I read this post and decided to center the text in the "nav".
So basically your ul should be in a nav so you can text-align: center the nav area.
nav {
width: 75%;
margin: auto
}
#menu {background-color: #98bf21}
.container{padding: 0.10em}
.cell-row {display:table; width:100%}
.cell {display: table-cell}
.cell-middle {vertical-align: middle}
a:link, a:visited {
font-weight: bold;
color: black;
text-align: center;
padding: 4px;
text-decoration: none;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
a:hover, a:active {background-color: #7A991A}
#media (max-width: 500px) {
.mobile {
display: block;
width: 100%;
text-align: center
}
nav {
width: 100%;
margin: auto
}
}
<nav>
<div id="menu" class="cell-row" style="text-align: center">
<div class="container cell cell-middle mobile">Home</div>
<div class="container cell cell-middle mobile">News</div>
<div class="container cell cell-middle mobile">Articles</div>
<div class="container cell cell-middle mobile">Forum</div>
<div class="container cell cell-middle mobile">Contact</div>
<div class="container cell cell-middle mobile">About</div>
</div>
</nav>
Add the following css:
ul {
margin: 0 auto;
display: inline-block;
}
This will make the ul fit its contents and then be centered in its container.
Saw this www.workatplay.com/ website, and got fascinated on how simple and nice stuff can look. I wish to make exactly like the header above.
With the header I am reffering to this:
http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/619/header1o.png
And how the links + the "[workatplay.com]" logo is set up at the right.
I tried looking at the source & css/source for learning, but It doesnt seem to be there. The part where the nav-sub(the pink bar) gets colordefined(css) and splitted.
Is the whole header a background itself? Why cant i find it in the css or anywhere else to know how they have done.
How can i make a header like this?

Using Google Chrome, right click and select "Inspect Element". There is a task pane called "computed css" that will tell you exactly what the browser is displaying no matter how the css got there (default, inline, external). I use that to debug css I'm developing all the time. Other browsers may have similar features.
As to how to replicate it? The css would be rather simple. Two floated divs for each row. Inside each div would be two additional divs, one floated left and one floated right. Play with the margins until you get the spacing you like.
width: 100%;
background-color: {color you want};
margin-left: ____;
margin-right: ____;
etc
As for the logo, research css's vertical-align attribute. This, couple with font-size should give you the effect you want.
Well at workplay.com there is css file http://workplay.com/files/css/css_09edd7837a8690967d3b6d7e136222f6.css which you can locate by viewing source.
if you are using firefox then download and install Firebug Plug-in. similarly if you are using IE there is similar plug-in available from Microsoft "IE Developer Toolbar". or chrome or safari comes with Web Page Inspector tool . all are simple to use
just point with pointer from this plug-in and click on one the element for which you want to know css or HTML or JavaScript details.
here you can experiment with this by changing and see result instantly.
