This is my .html file with a wrapper that contains the header with the menu - sidebar - a div for the content :
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Test</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css?v=1">
</head>
<body>
<div class="wrapper">
<header id="header"> Header - Menu</header>
<div class = "central-body">
<div id = "sidebar">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.</div>
<div id = "main-content">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.</div>
</div>
<footer> </footer>
</div>
</body>
</html>
This is my css:
*{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
html, body{
height: 100%;
}
body{
background-color: black;
}
.wrapper{
height: 100%;
}
#header{
background-color: blue;
height: 40px;
width: 100%;
}
.central-body{
height: 100%;
width:100%;
background-color: purple;
}
#sidebar{
height: 100%;
width: 20%;
background-color: yellow;
float: left;
}
#main-content{
height: 100%;
background-color: green;
}
footer{
width:100%;
height: 40px;
background-color: red;
}
My problem is that i have to scroll down "40px" to see my footer, even if there are few words in "sidebar" and "main-content". How can i fix that?
You can make the .central-bodyheight 100% minus the height of the header and the footer like this:
height:calc(100% - 80px) //header 40px + footer 40px
We're using calc for this to work.
(This will also work if we do the calc on the .wrapper)
Here is an working example
Code:
.central-body {
height:calc(100% - 80px);
}

This is my code:
* {
font-size: 40px;
font-family: Arial;
color: blue;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
div {
height: 100vh;
}
#one {
display: flex;
width: 100%;
}
#two,
#four {
width: 45px;
background-color: blue;
}
#three {
width: 100%;
display: flex;
}
#button,
#text {
border: 1px solid blue;
margin: 10px;
}
#text {
width: 100%;
/* overflow: auto;
white-space: nowrap; */
}
<div id="one">
<div id="two">
</div>
<div id="three">
<div id="text">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua.</div>
<div id="button">Button</div>
</div>
<div id="four">
</div>
</div>
I want to add white-space: nowrap; for the text (#text), but it destroys the layout, the areas with the blue backgrounds get lost. I saw that adding min-width: 0; or min-height: 0; could help, but it doesn't work in this case.
Has somebody an idea to fix that? Would be very thankful. :)
For clarifying: The text from #text should stay in one line, that's all.
What is happening?
The divs two, three and four are had the flex property set to its default values:
div {
flex-grow: 0;
flex-shrink: 1;
flex-base: auto
}
Which means that for each div should: calculate the "best" width (flex-base: auto), if there is enough space for the three divs there is no need to grow to fill it (flex-grow: 0), if there isn't enough space shrink them proportionally (flex-shrink: 1).
When you put white-space: nowrap; in the three div, there is not enough space (since it "best" width will be as much as is needed to hold the single long line of text.
Solution:
Add flex-shrink: 0 to the blue divs, and flex-grow: 1 and overflow: auto to the central div. This way, the blue divs will always have 45px width, and the central one will always fill the remaining space.
UPDATE
Since you now have a new div and button inside div three, there is a few additional changes: We'll make div three also a flex container, and set flex-grow and flex-shrink to appropriate values for the inner text and button.

According to MDN, setting white-space: nowrap "suppresses line breaks (text wrapping) within the source." This means that all of your line breaks will be gone for that element and it will go on horizontally as long as there is text.
But to keep everything within the viewport and keep the blue bars around the text, you should first wrap your Lorem Ipsum text in a p tag or other text element, and then change your CSS to something like this:
:root {
--bar_width: 45px;
}
* {
font-size: 40px;
font-family: Arial;
color: blue;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
div {
height: 100vh;
}
#one {
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
justify-content: space-between;
width: 100vw;
}
#two,
#four {
width: var(--bar_width);
background-color: blue;
}
#three p {
max-width: calc(95vw - (2 * var(--bar_width)));
white-space: nowrap;
overflow: scroll;
}

<div id="four">
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
This adds an overflow property set to scroll so that the text can be reached without it streching out the viewport. I also set the max width the element can take up so that CSS knows when to start cutting off the text. I also added flex-direction: row; justify-content: space-between; to your #one selector so that the elements space out horizontally.
You can now change the max-width property set in the #three p selector to any value you want and the text (with scroll) will be centered between the blue bars.
You need to set the flex-basis property of div#three, div#two, and div#four to something like 33.3%
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/flex-basis
You're also setting the height of all divs to 100vh, and when the overflow occurs on your inner block elements, it doesn't know where to stop unless you truncate the text: https://css-tricks.com/flexbox-truncated-text/

I ran into some weird flexbox behavior on safari and was hoping someone could explain it.
Codepen of minimal example
Snippet:
// Culprits
// If any of these are removed, the strange behavior goes away {}
.container {
display: flex;
}
.parent {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
}
.child {
display: flex;
flex: 0;
}
// Setup {}
.container {
border: 1px solid green;
}
.parent {
border: 1px solid red;
}
.child {
border: 2px solid blue;
width: 200px;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="parent">
<div class="child">
<div>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
It works fine in Chrome and FF, but on safari, the .child collapses — presumably because of the flex-grow: 0. What's going on?
I am trying to make an info box with an info text (which is a simple div). At the right end of this info box there should be a text named "more info" (a nested div), which should indicate that you can click on the info box. To save space I would like to rotate the text 90 degrees, and it should only take so much space as the height of the text "more info". But I couldn't get it working. Either my text is breaking into two lines, or if I use white-space: nowrap; the text is not aligned vertically centered.
Does anyone have a hint for another css property I can try?
I created a fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/girlscout/9e5u3j5w/3/
I colored the two divs with separate colors just for this example in order to see what the divs are doing.
Thank you Brett for hint with the the code snippet (it is my first post, and I didn't know that this is possible). Here is the code:
.first-div {
border:1px solid blue; width:300px; height:100px; margin:20px auto;
display:flex;
/*justify-content:flex-end; */
}
.second-div {
background-color:green;
/*align-items:center;*/
}
.mytext{
transform:rotate(-90deg);
/*white-space: nowrap;*/
}
<div class="first-div">
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor. Aenean massa sociis nato.
</p>
<div class="second-div"><p class="mytext">more info</p></div>
</div>
so you can make it work by setting the width on the .second-div and changing the padding and transform-origin on .mytext, but its going to be different for every tab you create.
.second-div {
background-color: green;
width: 120px;
position: relative;
}
.mytext {
position: absolute;
white-space: nowrap;
top: 0;
padding: 8px;
color: #FFF;
transform-origin: 50% 100%;
transform: rotate(-90deg);
}
I believe one key will be the transform-origin property.
We'll also position: absolute the .mytext element and fix the width, height and some other properties. However, it still remains flexible enough to work with a variety of content.
Like this:
.first-div {
border: 1px solid blue;
width: 300px;
height: 100px;
margin: 20px auto;
display: flex;
}
.second-div {
position: relative;
background-color: green;
height: 100%;
box-sizing: border-box;
flex-basis: 80px;
}
.mytext {
position: absolute;
top: 20px;
transform: rotate(-90deg);
transform-origin: 0% 0%;
white-space: nowrap;
margin: 100px 0 0 0;
line-height: 30px;
width: 100px;
text-align: right;
}
.first-div.larger {
height: 250px;
}
<div class="first-div">
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor. Aenean massa sociis nato.
</p>
<div class="second-div">
<p class="mytext">more info</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="first-div">
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor. Aenean massa sociis nato.
</p>
<div class="second-div">
<p class="mytext">info</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="first-div larger">
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor. Aenean massa sociis nato.
</p>
<div class="second-div">
<p class="mytext">even more info</p>
</div>
</div>
I think I understand what you're look for. You need to add positioning to the first-div of relative and second-div of absolute. See below code.
See it here: CODEPEN
.first-div {
border: 1px solid blue;
width: 400px;
height: 100px;
margin: 20px auto;
display: flex;
position: relative;
padding-right: 40px;
}
.second-div {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
right: 0px;
background-color: green;
}
.mytext{
transform:rotate(-90deg);
padding: 20px 0;
font-size: 0.7em;
color: #fff;
}
<div class="first-div">
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor. Aenean massa sociis nato.
</p>
<div class="second-div">
<p class="mytext">more info</p>
</div>
</div>
There is a possible solution, although it means somewhat duplicating your markup in a way. You will need two elements: the text that serves as an invisible filler, and the text that is actually displayed:
<div class="second-div">
<!-- Used to precaluclate/reserve space, not displayed -->
<div class="mytext-spacer">more info</div>
<!-- The actual text that is displayed and rotated -90deg -->
<div class="mytext">more info</div>
</div>
The solution leverages on the fact that you can use a spacer element that "pre-occupies" the space that the rotated text needs. This will be the .mytext-spacer element. We simply force it to display text in a vertical manner so that it will take up the same space as rotated text:
.mytext-spacer {
text-orientation: upright;
writing-mode: vertical-rl;
visibility: hidden;
}
The spacer is then hidden away using visibility: hidden. Using display: none will not work because it will be taken out of the document flow and will not be able to "reserve" the pre-calculated space required to fit the rotated text.
Next, you simply rotate your actual .mytext, it will fit nicely. I have used the position + translate trick to visually center the text. We cannot leverage of flexbox here because it will then interfere with the layout involving the hidden spacer text.
.mytext {
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%) rotate(-90deg);
text-align: center;
}
.first-div {
border: 1px solid blue;
width: 300px;
height: 100px;
margin: 20px auto;
display: flex;
/*justify-content:flex-end; */
}
.second-div {
background-color: green;
position: relative;
}
.mytext-spacer {
text-orientation: upright;
writing-mode: vertical-rl;
visibility: hidden;
}
.mytext {
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%) rotate(-90deg);
text-align: center;
}
<div class="first-div">
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor. Aenean massa sociis nato.
</p>
<div class="second-div">
<div class="mytext-spacer">more info</div>
<div class="mytext">more info</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="first-div">
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aenean commodo ligula eget dolor. Aenean massa sociis nato.
</p>
<div class="second-div">
<div class="mytext-spacer">this is a long long text</div>
<div class="mytext">this is a long long text</div>
</div>
</div>
I want to create a custom alert box with bootstrap.
But the vertical aligment of the text and the icon, does not work. So here`s the code:
HTML:
<div class="alert-box alert-box-info text-center clearfix" style="display: inline-block;">
<i class="fa fa-info text-info pull-left"></i>
<div class="text text-info"><p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua.</p></div>
</div>
CSS:
.alert-box
{
margin: 20px 0;
border: 1px solid #dbdbdb;
display: inline-block;
height: 100px;
}
.alert-box .fa {
font-size: 40px;
padding-left: 20px;
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.alert-box .text {
margin: 0px;
display: table-cell;
width: 100%;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.alert-box-info
{
background: #f4f8fa;
border-bottom: 3px solid #5bc0de;
}
.alert-box-info h4
{
color: #5bc0de;
}
The jsFiddle Demo
Can somebody tell me, why the vertical alignment does not work and how I can fix that?
Answer was completely updated as a result of the answer to this question.
Your layout should be achievable with flex-box. Just add on the container:
display: flex;
align-items:center;
Anything table related of vertical align related should be removed from all places. You can create your desired layout by forcing table layout on some elements, but that is not the way to go here since you don't have a real table and tabular data.
Note: We need to explicitly add flex-shrink: 0 on the small columns on the edges because of a Chrome bug (just fixed for FF 34) that causes incorrect shrinking. According to the specs, there should not happen any shrinking by default.
Demo:
.alert-box
{
margin: 20px;
border: 1px solid #dbdbdb;
display: flex;
align-items:center;
height: 100px
}
.alert-box .fa {
font-size: 40px;
padding-left: 20px;
flex-shrink: 0;
}
.alert-box .text {
margin: 0px;
flex-grow: 1;
}
.alert-box-info
{
background: #f4f8fa;
border-bottom: 3px solid #5bc0de;
}
.alert-box-info h4
{
color: #5bc0de;
}
.alert-btn {
flex-shrink: 0;
}

Simplest way is to change style of div:
<div class="alert-box alert-box-info text-center clearfix" style="display: table-cell; vertical-align: middle;">
JavaScript is the best option here. I've added transition for line-height for smooth alignment.
Fiddle
function doMath() {
document.getElementsByClassName('fa-info')[0].style.lineHeight = document.getElementsByClassName('text')[0].clientHeight + 'px';
}
doMath();
window.onresize = doMath;
.alert-box {
margin: 20px 0;
border: 1px solid #dbdbdb;
display: table;
}
.alert-box .fa {
font-size: 40px;
padding-left: 20px;
display: table-cell;
transition: line-height 0.1s;
}
.alert-box .text {
padding: 20px;
margin: 0px;
display: table-cell;
width: 100%;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.alert-box-info {
background: #f4f8fa;
border-bottom: 3px solid #5bc0de;
}
.alert-box-info h4 {
color: #5bc0de;
}

The easiest way to vertical align a text if it has only 1 row is the line-height properties:
.alert-box .fa {
font-size: 40px;
padding-left: 20px;
line-height: 100px;
}

I want to position "rightBottomPart" to the bottom of "rightPart" and I want "rightPart to be as high as "leftPart". The problem is that I don't know the height of the content in "leftPart" and therefore I can't set the height of "text". (Height in "text" would solve it)
Right now it looks like this:
and I want it to look like this:
My code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >

<div id="rightBottomPart" style="background-color: Yellow; position: absolute; right: 0px; bottom: 0px;">bottom</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
It looks right in IE7, but not in the rest of the browsers I've tested. If I remove the DOCTYPE-tag it also looks good in IE8, but still not in Google Chrome.
What am I missing?

To keep floats and position under control, you need to keep two things in mind: the position is absolute according to its parent element and usually needs dimensions, and floated objects do not have dimensions by default.
Since your test represents a simple two-column model, have a look at this nice overview here, it might clarify things up a little bit: equal height columns with css
So, the trick here is to give #text a float and pos:rel and then the #right*Part will know where they are positioned.
Have a look here:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
