I have a page with a bunch of equal size divs that I want to fit responsively in the available space of a wrapper div.
The idea is that:
- in a large screen the divs will show in 3 columns
- in a medium size screen the divs will show in 2 columns
- in a phone screen the divs will show in 1 column.
I'd also like the wrapper to center horizontally.
I was trying:
#wrapper {margin:0 auto;}
.column {float:left; max-width:340px; height:540px; margin:20px}
It works as intended except that the wrapper doesn't center, which I was trying to achieve with line 1 of css.
Any idea how I can achieve this?
EDIT:
The HTML code:
<div id="wrapper">
<div class="column one">
</div>
<div class="column two">
</div>
<div class="column three">
</div>
</div>
If your requirements allow you to do so, I would suggest using a UI Framework such as Twitter's Bootstrap. They have components that would achieve exactly what you are attempting to do (see their grid system documentation).

Basically I need 3 divs to align on small width (<576px) like in the top of image below and on rest of the widths (>576px) like in the bottom on the image below.
How it can be achieved with bootstrap flexbox classes?
I'm assuming base set is:
<div class="d-flex">
<div>A</div>
<div>B</div>
<div>C</div>
</div>
I don't see .column and .row classes being used because A and B don't share same div on small and large screens... experimented with differnt classes with no success.
For the alignment top of the image. Use align-content utilities on flexbox containers to align flex items together on the cross axis. You can choose
<div class="d-flex align-content-start flex-wrap">...</div>
for the content top of the image and for bottom you can choose
<div class="d-flex align-content-end flex-wrap">...</div>
Here, I am assuming that image would be in different <div> and For the responsive behaviour you can use .order classes
I am newbie with bootstrap gridline system so I got stucked when I tried to create that (advanced?) gridview:
So my problem is that I do not know how to organize blocks in rows, because some blocks must have difeerent height, for example height of block 5. should have the same size as blocks 3. and 2. together.
Is that even possible? Also there should be some space between blocks, so background image should fill those space.
Please help me out.
What you'll want to do is place divs 2, 3, and 4 in their own container div (with the class .col-md-3) and 5 and 6 in another container div (with the class .col-md-3). Make div 1 have the .col-md-6 class.
Edit: You should use a media query to make it a fixed height in the desktop, then a flexible height when it's mobile.
#media screen and (max-width: 980px) { #div2 { height: 500px; (or whatever)}}
I think the most efficient way to do this is to simply use a single row with three columns. Your divs can stack inside the appropriate columns, and you can define the heights for each one. You can see it in action here: http://jsfiddle.net/StSmith/Z9SpM/1/
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-6">
<div id="box1">1</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-3">
<div id="box2">2</div>
<div id="box3">3</div>
<div id="box4">4</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-3">
<div id="box5">5</div>
<div id="box6">6</div>
</div>
</div>
A simple way to do this is to declare the divs in the order you listed, and then apply a simple float: left. If you define the heights of each div manually it should all fit into place!
Rachel's got the right idea. You really just need to nest rows into a container, then use CSS to adjust the heights.
Are there any built in css classes in jQuery Mobile for horizontal positioning? In Bootstrap, the screen is divided by 12 columns, and elements can be aligned based on them. Example: "col-md-2". http://getbootstrap.com/examples/grid/
I want it to be fairly responsive in design. At the moment I'm thinking of using divs and set the "css width" to a percentage..
Take a look at jquerymobile responsive grids: link
code:
<div class="ui-grid-b ui-responsive">
<div class="ui-block-a">Column A</div>
<div class="ui-block-b">Column B</div>
<div class="ui-block-c">Column C</div>
</div>
I am using bootstrap's grid, and I would like to have a div that "breaks" the grid and is streched to the borders of the screen ('width:100%').
my code looks something like this:
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="span12">
div that is the width of the grid
</div>
<div class="unknown">
div that breaks the grid and has full width
</div>
</div>
</div>
how can I achieve this? is it common practice to open many different containers, or can I do this with divs nested with the container?
Use several containers rather than overriding the layout with custom styling.
Bootstrap themselves have examples with multiple containers being used, such as:
the carousel
I'm using the 960 Grid System on this page where I list my instapaper bookmarks: http://labs.tonyhue.com/bookmarks/
However, the social media section is set off from the rest. It should be aligned to the right following the programming section. Any ideas?
Add a (fixed) height to your .grid_6-Container.
.grid_6 {height:250px; /*or something else*/}
Your Problem occurs on floated elements with different height.
Nice reading about floatings: http://coding.smashingmagazine.com/2007/05/01/css-float-theory-things-you-should-know/
Edit:
Otherwise you could add a wrapper element to clear your floats:
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="grid_6"></div>
<div class="grid_6"></div>
</div>
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="grid_6"></div>
<div class="grid_6"></div>
</div>
You can clear your floats with .wrapper {overflow:hidden;} OR you can use the clearfix method: http://perishablepress.com/press/2009/12/06/new-clearfix-hack/
