I have an image, single character in a span (equal sign), and then a div where child elements are added/replaced via js.
However, I can't for the life of me figure out how to get it all aligned properly (fear I'm over thinking and complicating it.)
I'm using bootstrap's grid (row/col) system as well.
Something akin to...
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-2 col-offset-lg-1">
<div class="response-part">
<img src="foo" />
<span class="opensans">=</span>
<div id="rp1" class="opensans inline" style="width: 50px;">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-2">
<div class="response-part">
<img src="foo" />
<span class="opensans">=</span>
<div id="rp2" class="opensans inline" style="width: 50px;">
<span class="opensans">X</span>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
See jsfiddle
Wanting image centered middle along equal sign (vertical-align) as well as span within neighboring div (and the text in that span appearing just a few pixels off the bottom line.)
I saw this but none of the solutions are addressing the problem for me (I can only guess it is because of the third element and font, etc.)
UPDATE1: Edited sample html to correctly reflect the scenario in which the response-part.div is empty (initial state, possible transition state as user interacts with the page.) Updated fiddle
UPDATE2: I "fixed" the issue occurring with no child elements by adding an initial element in the initial html for the response-part, and then adding one back in when the user removes all other elements. A bit hackish, would appreciate a fix that didn't involve this workaround if possible. Updated fiddle
PS: I initially considered using bootstrap v4 (with flexbox support) but it is still alpha. Alternatively, I also looked into using FlexboxGrid, however I still need bootstrap for other features and FlexboxGrid uses similar classes ("row", etc) as bootstrap, which I assumed would cause name conflicts (if I included both in my project, eg: which "row" class would be used!)
Try using display: flex; on your response-part class. Something like this:
.response-part {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
I edited your fiddle. Take a look on it: https://jsfiddle.net/gusLnyyh/6/

(There's a similar question here, but I am too much of a noob yet to translate this onto Bootstrap)
What I want is to have an area on the page between "header" and "footer" (let's call it "body"), which may have a
some fixed section, like BS4 "row", put on the top,
some variable content, consisting of several BS "rows", AND aligned
vertically on the middle of what is left of the body (or of the body
itself)
Can it be done in a responsive manner, and without JS (using only Bootstrap 4 CSS) ?
I've tried some stuff:
<body>
<div id="root" class="container">
<div style="height: 100%;">
<div><h1>HEADER</h1></div><hr>
<div style="min-height: 60%;">
<div class="h100">
<div>some badge</div><br>
<div>
<div class="row justify-content-between">
<div class="col-3">Item #2</div>
<div class="col-3 text-right">
<div>some stats</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="">
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<div class="col text-center"><h3>THIS SHOULD BE IN THE MIDDLE OF A BLANK SPACE</h3></div>
</div>
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<div class="col-4 text-right"><button class="btn btn-link">it's just below and left</button></div>
<div class="col-4 text-left"><button class="btn btn-link">it's just below and right</button></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div><hr>
<div class="footer">FOOTER</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
(https://jsfiddle.net/f93mhdbr/) but as long as I add "d-flex" onto "body" div, or any of it's children, all the previous "row"/"col"-based layout turns into horrible mess ! (see https://jsfiddle.net/f93mhdbr/2/)
I suspect this is due to Bootstrap itself using Flexbox for column and rows,
but maybe any solution exists?
I will try to work on improving this question, I know it's very poor, but I right now I am too much in a despair to work it all out...
UPDATE: added links to whatever I was trying to reproduce
You need to use the flex property to achieve it. Using flex-grow here will make your variable element to grow and fill the remaining height of its container, if there is any. Then all is left to do is set align-items-center on the element to align it on the x-axis.
Here is the Fiddle
Please note I added background-colors so it's easier for you to see how much space each element uses, or use an inspector.
You can set any fixed height for the header, footer and content-top. The height of content and content-remaining will adapt responsively, because they have the property flex-grow: 1 set on them. Here's an example.
To explain further, because the container wrap has a min-height: 100-vh, the content element will grow to fill the entire viewport relative to the rest of the flexible items inside the wrap container. The same logic applies to content-remaining, the only difference is that its parent is the content element and not the wrap container.
As last, I added the IE fix for the min-height property on flex-items. It's a known bug and a quick and reliable fix is to wrap it in a separate flex container.
Hopefully this was helpful to you, if you have any questions left please comment on this answer.
I have a 3-column layout that works pretty well:
http://jsfiddle.net/nicorellius/YNyHW/7/
My goal is to add a pre-existing modular unit into the center div, the one with class two-inner. The markup is like so:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<div>
<div class="container">
<div class="one">
<div class="one-inner"></div>
</div>
<div class="two">
<div class="two-inner"></div>
</div>
<div class="three">
<div class="three-inner"></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
The CSS can be seen in the fiddle. Part of the modular unit is actually built from some PHP where some data from a database is fetched and displayed. I have some arrays that I'm using for testing that mimic 6 entries and gives the modular unit a 2-wide by 3-tall box layout. My problem is that when I add this unit into the layout above, I get something like the test site below.
The markup for the modular unit is like so:
<section class="unit">
<section class="buttons margin-top-2em">
<div class="button-fixed-width">
<button type="button" class="<bootstrap-button>">button 1</button>
</div>
<div class="button-fixed-width">
<button type="button" class="<bootstrap-button>">button 2</button>
</div>
<div class="button-fixed-width">
<button type="button" class="<bootstrap-button>">button 3</button>
</div>
</section>
<div class="row">
<?php // loop through some arrays to get module unit ?>
</div>
</section>
I've tried various tweaks to try and get it up but the only thing that does it is making the heights of the outer classes one, two, and three close to zero.
Although I've tried changing heights and other bits to get it to fit, I'm still having trouble figuring out why that center div won't go up. What am I missing?
The CSS for the unit class is in the fiddle. On it's own, it works OK, and I have some breakpoints that collapse it down into a single column. I just cant get passed this part...
EDIT
After trying some ideas from #kozlovski5, I am able to get the divmoving up and down as I need. But there is something going on that is making me uneasy. I'm not too familiar with the display: table, display: table-cell layout so Im sure I'm missing something. For example, when I add text to the divs in question, either the classes one, two, or three, or the inner classes, the adjustments recommended by #kozlovski5 go away. So in other words if I don't use top: -37.5em; and just fill the divs with text, everything seems to work as it should. It's when I try to model the layout with bordered sections that I get the strange behavior.
I ended up going with floats instead. See test site above for final.
I applied:
div > .modular {
display: block;
}
This seems to solve the problem. Here is an updated jsFiddle. http://jsfiddle.net/YNyHW/4/
OP has provided a test case for his website, so my updated answer is:
.two-inner {
background-color: #cba;
border: 1px solid gray;
display: block;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
position: relative;
top: -596px;
left: 0;
}
Ugghhh.. Another Edit
I think the whole display: table and div > div. { display: table-cell;} is causing this issue and instead of working on patches let's hit the problem head straigh on instead of working on fixes.
Just get rid of the display table etc. And use floats instead here is an example:

Using CSS I am running into trouble getting a div later on the page to show up using the hover command over an img tag. I'm writing the page using Bootstrap 3 - Any idea why this may be a problem? The words in "hovershow" appear at the right spot on the page when they are not originally hiden using CSS which makes me think there's a problem with the command itself.
HTML
<div class="col-md-4 col-sm-4">
<img id="Email_Logo" class="featurette-image img-responsive" src="img/Email_Icon_Send1.jpg" data-src="holder.js/500x500/auto" alt="Generic placeholder image">
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6 col-md-offset-3">
<div class="hovershow"><p>This should show on hover</p></div>
</div>
</div>
CSS
.hovershow{
display:none;
}
#Email_Logo:hover .hovershow{
display: block;
}
That's definitely not how CSS works.
The following CSS implies there is an element .hovershow somewhere within #Email_Logo:
.#Email_Logo:hover .hovershow{
display: block;
}
And well... that's not the case. What you want can either be achieved by some easy Javascripting or a change in your HTML 'tree' and CSS.
I'm new to Bootstrap and loving it so far but have a couple of simple questions to do with the grid - can't seem to find the answers anywhere...
<div class="container">
<div class="row" style="background-color: #ccc;"> <!-- 1. How do I get this background colour to exclude the left 20px gutter? -->
<div class="span5">
Left Col
<div class="row">
<div class="span5">
<input class="span5" type="text"/> <!-- 2. How do I stop this input from shifting right 20px in IE7? -->
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="span7">
Right Col
<div class="input-prepend">
<!-- This lines up correctly, even in IE7 - my star hack will break this -->
<span class="add-on">+</span><input type="text" placeholder="Add..." class="span6">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Having inspected the bootstrap css I can see that .row starts by pulling back the margin-left by 20px, so that each time a .spanX is created, it has a 20px gutter to the left. This makes sense, but how can I apply style to the whole row (e.g. a background colour) and have this apply to all columns within that row (the span5 and span7 in my example) but without including the left hand 20px gutter?
Secondly, what is the best way to set the widths of elements within a column? In my example I have tried to size a textbox to fill the width of the left hand column by placing it in a nested row with span5. This doesn't work in IE7 - instead it moves to the right by 20px and I lose the right hand gutter.
To see this, check out http://jsfiddle.net/jRcJG/ in IE7 vs good browsers.
The closest I've got is to put together an IE hack to shift the inputs back again, but this causes other problems such as squashing up the input-prepend in the right column:
http://jsfiddle.net/JsBpV/
Unfortunately the project I'm working on must support IE7 so I don't have the luxury of ignoring these users.
Thanks for any help!
A simple but not necessarily elegant solution for #2 is to add an IE star hack inside a class:
input.ie-fix-left, textarea.ie-fix-left {
*margin-left: -20px;
}
which requires you to put a class on each input element that is affected by this problem:
<div class="row">
<div class="span6">
<input type="text" class="span6 ie-fix-left"/>
</div>
</div>
Create a div with .span12 and include another level of row/span with your .span5 and span7
jQuery
I have an HTML "toolbar" containing a number of widgets arranged horizontally. Each item is represented by a div in the source document:
<div id="widget1" />
<div id="widget2" />
<div id="widget3" />
I position the divs using float: left. The problem is that I also want them to be pinned to the top of the toolbar so that they don't wrap around if the user reduces the width of the window. Instead, I just want them to overflow horizontally (with the overflow hidden) so that the behavior is like that of a real toolbar.
In other words, I want something like position: fixed but only for the vertical coordinate. Horizontally they should be positioned one after another in a row. Is there any way to do this with CSS?
Update Here's the real HTML I'm using. The divss with class="row" are the ones that should appear as widgets in the toolbar, arranged horizontally in a single row.
<div class="row" id="titleRow">
<span class="item"> <img src="../images/logo.png" height="26" /> </span>
<span class="item" id="title">Title</span>
<span class="item" id="close" onclick="window.close();"> close </span>
</div>
<div class="row" id="menuRow">
<span class="item"> <ul id="menu"></ul> </span>
</div>
<div class="row" id="searchRow">
</div>
<div class="row" id="pageRow">
<span class="item" id="page-related-data"> Page-related data: </span>
</div>
Rather than float: left; try display: inline-block; vertical-align: top;. Then set white-space: nowrap; and overflow: hidden; on the parent element. See http://jsfiddle.net/rt9sS/1/ for an example.
Note inline-block has some issues. It's white space aware (so white space around elements in the HTML will be visible in the document). It also has limited support in IE6/7, although you can work around that by giving the element layout, e.g. .oldie .widget { display:inline; zoom:1; }. See http://www.quirksmode.org/css/display.html#inlineblock for more.
I know this is an old question, wanted to add a simple jquery answer for those that run across it.
$(window).scroll(function(){
$("#keep-in-place").css("top",$(document).scrollTop()+"px");
});
To make higher or lower on page simply add to $(document).scrollTop()
Works for me
