I am trying to add space between elements <header> and section <section> but they are stuck to each other, such that when I apply margin to the bottom of the the top element or at the top of the bottom element, the top element moves down along with the bottom element, this only happened after I added the footer.
And I did a search but I was not able to find solution for this.
Thanks to All..
.hclass {margin-bottom:20;} // header - the top most part, need space below this
.tryi {margin:top;} //section the second part, need space above this
#divfootr {width:100%;height:auto;position:absolute;bottom:0;text-align:center;} // footer code
<header class="hclass">
<nav id="indxpg">
<div class="mainnav">
</div>
</nav>
</header>
<section class="tryi">
<div id="logotable">
</div>
</section>
<footer class="footer">
<div id="divfootr">
<p><span class="copyright"><strong>© 2016</strong></span></p>
</div>
</footer>
Your way to add margin is incorrect. It must be something like this (for a fixed margin) :
margin-top:20px;
Your missing px.
.hclass{margin-top:20px}

I've boiled my layout down to this fiddle or the full screen version
I am having two problems. The first, is that space between the side bar and the content is very large. I want them to be spaced as normal. In my case, I'm expecting the side bar to be span2 in size, my main content to be span7 in size and then a right hand column to be span3.
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span2">
<div class="well sidebar-nav-fixed">
<ul class="nav nav-list">
<li class="nav-header">Sidebar</li>
...other links ...
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<div class="span7 span-fixed-sidebar">
<div id="world-map" style="display:block;"> </div>
</div>
<div class="span3">
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span12" id="country-info">
<h2 id="country-info-header">
The Detail Header
</h2>
<p id="country-info-summary">
A set of summary information. A short paragraph of text.
</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
However, I'm getting a result with a huge gap between my sidebar and my content (the red box), and the right hand content is on the left hand side and under my sidebar. How can I fix this layout?
You need to experiment with Bootstraps offset classes. I made you a quick example here:
http://jsfiddle.net/tXzjX/5/
Your position:fixed takes the element out of the natural flow of the page, and in a way "resets" the columns on the grid. Using Bootstrap's offset classes can counteract that issue. Check here: http://getbootstrap.com/2.3.2/scaffolding.html#gridSystem under "Offsetting Columns".
Could you not just reduce the margin size like so:
.row-fluid > .span-fixed-sidebar {
margin-left: 100px;
}
as that seems to move the red bar in nicely
EDIT: I have had a play about and come up with a slightly simpler looking code with what I think is the effect you require with a bit of tweaking. http://jsfiddle.net/bmgh1985/UeFRa/
The code below is from W3CSchool example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<div id="container" style="width:500px">
<div id="header" style="background-color:#FFA500;">
<h1 style="margin-bottom:0;">Main Title of Web Page</h1></div>
<div id="menu" style="background-color:#FFD700;height:200px;width:20%;float:left;">
<b>Menu</b><br>
HTML<br>
CSS<br>
JavaScript</div>
<div id="content" style="background-color:#EEEEEE;height:200px;width:80%;">
Content goes here</div>
<div id="footer" style="background-color:#FFA500;text-align:center;">
Copyright © W3Schools.com</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
You can copy the code and paste it to the editor below:
http://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_layout_divs
I have already specified the width of "menu" to 20% and "content" to 80%, why at the right side of "content" has a blank area?
It will only align properly if I add "float:left" in the css style of "content". I can't understand why it behave like that. Anyone can explain?
Thanks for help.
This is because the width of the container for menu and content is set to 500px.
Set it to 100% if you want it to take the whole page:
<div id="container" style="width:100%">
Also if you want the content to simply take all the remaining space, don't assign it a width:
<div id="content" style="background-color:#EEEEEE; height:200px">Content goes here</div>
Here's the full working code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<div id="container" style="width:100%">
<div id="header" style="background-color:#FFA500;">
<h1 style="margin-bottom:0;">Main Title of Web Page</h1></div>
<div id="menu" style="background-color:#FFD700;height:200px;width:20%;float:left;">
<b>Menu</b><br>
HTML<br>
CSS<br>
JavaScript</div>
<div id="content" style="background-color:#EEEEEE;height:200px">
Content goes here</div>
<div id="footer" style="background-color:#FFA500;text-align:center;">

There is blank area at right of page because your floating div is overlapping your content div because floating divs always float above the other divs (Try removing background-color of menu to see example). When you apply float right/left to your content div, it also floats with menu div hence occupies all the space.
please refer to This site
for more information on float.
Thank you,
DIVs are block elements. This means that 2 DIVs are displayed one bellow another, if not use float , position:absolute;, or inline.
if you use 'float' style express this div present external for 'inline' and present inside for 'block',and will affect the back of the element. so if content right display you can use 'float:left;width:80%' and 'float:left;width:80%'. In fact, this is 'display:inline-block', but according to my experience, it will produce the browser bug.
Basically I'm trying to create a simple webpage template which would contain 3 rows. The first being the header which contains two columns, the second just being the mainbody and then the last being a footer.
Coding wise i'm doing this kind of layout
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="header">
<header>
</header>
<div id="col2>
</div>
</div>
<div="mainbody"></div>
<footer></footer>
Basically the trouble I'm having now is in regards to the first row with the two columns. Basically I have a picture in the first one and a bunch of buttons on the second one. Ideally what I would like is to have the header at 100% width so it fits the screen and the contents of the first column stick to the left and the buttons to the right. With the blank space left inbetween the two. So the contents stick to the sides so to speak.
At the moment I'm using float:left on CSS for the first column, I've been messing around with float/align/position but I can't seem to get anything to work.
So any advice on that I would appreciate it.
I also had another question in regards to the footer, basically I have no idea how to even go about doing it. So just asking if possible and guidance where to look.
So for the footer I was wondering if it would be possible for it, if in between the footer and the browser x-axis there's white space it fits to the screen and the body would strech. Because as of now my body is only at the height of the contents within. So basically general advice on CSS to help implement the style so it fits to the screen.
Header with 2 columns
<div id="header">
<div id="column1" style="float:left;">Image</div>
<div id="column2" style="float:left;">Buttons</div>
</div>
Now add desired margin-left to second column div. It will create space in between 2 columns
<div id="wrapper">
<header>
<div id="column1" style="float:left;">Image</div>
<div id="column2" style="float:left;">Buttons</div>
</header>
<div class="mainbody">
Content
</div>
<footer></footer>
Use this
It is simple structure that can be created as follows (Here is DEMO)
HTML is
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="header">
<header><img src='http://www.topnews.in/files/facebook-yahoo.jpeg' height=200 />
</header>
<div id="col2"><input type=Button value ="button 1" /><br><input type=Button value ="button 1" /><br><input type=Button value ="button 1" /><br>
</div>
</div>
<div="mainbody">mainbody
</div>
<footer></footer>
</div>
And CSS will be
#header{overflow:auto}
header{float:left}
#col2{float:right}
Hope it will help you :)
How can I get the content div to get at the bottom instead of that odd position?
http://jsfiddle.net/madprops/6FFXL/1/
<div>
<div style='float:left'>name </div>
<div style='float:left'>date </div>
<div style='float:left'>comments </div>
</div>
<div id="contenido" style="font-size:20px;">content</div>
EDIT: removed float:top
It is at the bottom for me in your example, (FF5), but you should probably make it safe by setting content to clear your floated divs, like this:
<div id="contenido" style="font-size:20px;clear:both;">content</div>
Also, the float:top on your first div is invalid, there is no top property of float.
<html>
<div style="width:200px;">
<div style="background:red;height:5px"></div>
<div style="background:yellow">
Magnets?
</div>
<div style="background:green;height:5px"></div>
</div>
</html>
Rendering with "Magnets?" wrapped in h3 tags
How come the divs cease to be contiguous if "Magnets?" is wrapped in a paragraph or heading tag?
The elements you're wrapping with likely have default margins.
You need to zero out the margins on the h3 or p.
<html>
<div style="width:200px;">
<div style="background:red;height:5px"></div>
<div style="background:yellow">
<h3 style="margin:0px;">Magnets?</h3>
</div>
<div style="background:green;height:5px"></div>
</div>
</html>
If you want to keep the margin on the h3 and other elements then you need to fix the problem of the margins of the elements within the div collapsing. There are several ways to fix this:
Add a border to the div
Add a 1px border to the div
Remove margin from the element and add it to the div instead.
