How Can I Center One <li> in a <ul> - css

I have a top menu made by a list. All <li>s centers depending on the text though I want to center one the <li>s and then the rest of the <li>s should center on both sides. I want to center the image.
The top menu looks like this:
<div id="topMenu">
<ul>
<li>Forside</li>
<li>Kampe</li>
<li>Truppen</li>
<li><img id="logoMenu" src="images/logo.png"></li>
<li>Galleri</li>
<li>Statistik</li>
<li>Om Klubben</li>
</ul>
</div>
Then I have some CSS:
#topMenu {
background: #51a047;
width: 100%;
height: 50px;
line-height: 25px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
#topMenu ul {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 10px;
text-align: center;
}
#topMenu li {
display: inline;
padding: 0 20px;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
#logoMenu {
background-image: url("images/logo.png");
width: 80px;
}
#topMenu img {
vertical-align: text-top;
}
Here's a jsFiddle

Personally I wouldn't have the logo as an element in the navigation. Semantically it doesn't make sense and its difficult to style. If you divide the menu items in to two ULs you can do the following:
HTML
<div id="topMenu">
<ul id="menu-left">
<li>AAA</li>
<li>BBB</li>
<li>CCC</li>
</ul>
<img src="URL" />
<ul id="menu-right">
<li>DDD</li>
<li>EEE</li>
<li>FFF</li>
</ul>
</div>
CSS
#topMenu {
background: #51a047;
width: 100%;
height: 50px;
line-height: 25px;
margin: 0 auto;
position: relative;
}
#topMenu ul {
list-style-type: none;
text-align: center;
margin: 0;
padding: 10px;
box-sizing: border-box; /* percentage width + padding */
width: 45%;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
}
#topMenu #menu-left {
left: 0;
}
#topMenu #menu-right {
right: 0;
}
#topMenu li {
display: inline;
padding: 0 20px;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
#topMenu a {
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
}
#logoMenu {
display: block;
width: 10%;
margin: 0 auto; /*center*/
}
#topMenu img {
margin: 0 auto;
display: block;
max-height: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
}

Child list disappears when hovered over it

I have a Horizontal Menu. When the mouse is hovered over the child elements it disappears. The child elements cannot be clicked. I would like the child elements to stay when the mouse is hovered over it.

It's because you have positioned your submenu absolutely, and it's too far away from your parent li, so your mouse is leaving the parent menu before it reaches the submenu. I've added borders to show you.

You have padding, but it's on your a element, and needs to be on your li element, instead. Either add padding-top to your submenu li elements or adjust their top position so that they're directly underneath (aka "touching") the parent element.
Here is the code with the menu moved to top: 40px and the padding added to the submenu li elements:
.header {
color: #FFFFFF;
height: 60px;
width: 100%;
margin: auto;
}
.header_logo {
width: 40%;
height: 100%;
float: left;
}
#logo {
height: 100%;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 50%;
}
.header_title {
width: 60%;
float: left;
}
#titles {
position: absolute;
top: 20px;
font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif, Georgia;

How set a page to maximum and minimum sizes via css

The CSS is available here:
http://jsfiddle.net/85L448ds/
But I don't know how to make the page more responsive to sizing inconsistency. I want the page to default to 800 pixels wide, except where there is wide content or the browser window is too small (it should have a gray background outside this area). Whereas the height should be such that the height should not be less than the browser height.
In other words, I'd like it to work something like:
Width = 800
If Width > Window_Width then
Width = Window_Width
If Content_Width > Width then
Width = Content_Width
Whereas height should be the greater of: Content_Height and Windows_Height.
Note: Content_Width/Height cannot be predicted because I have a forum where the table structure is sometimes oversize to accomodate large images.
I've tried setting the CSS min-width property to 800, but that makes the default width 100%.
I thought height would be easy, just need to set the body to 100% height or 100vh, but that seems to have no effect...
I believe CSS Media Queries will resolve your problem.
Of course it is possibly just one of the solutions, but it is purely CSS and really easy to manage.
For more information about media queries: http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_mediaquery.asp
Using media queries happens like in this following example, where your #headLogo is set to change its properties once the viewport width is less or equal to 768px:
#media (max-width: 768px)
{
#headLogo {
text-align: center;
max-width: 300px;
}
}
Run snippet in full page and then play with window size after reduce the size of window your menu will hide and one button you can see. now show menu on button click.
If you run snippet so at first time you can see button because your
window size is < 768px if you want see menu then see result in full page
for responsive site use width in % not in px.
and you can also use bootstrap for that.

updated fiddle
You don't actually need media queries for that
html,
body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
will make body occupy all available space in window. It will shrink and expand with window re-size.

iPad specific CSS Div issue

I have an issue regarding a div we have on our test site, only when viewed on an iPad (or, I'm guessing, a screen that is tablet size)...
http://jmldirect.uat.venda.com
The Join Us (social icons) // Newsletter bar bleeds out of the main wrapper and I have no idea why.
Here is the HTML and relevant CSS:
HTML:
<div id="socialfooter">
<ul class="getSocial">
<li><a class="join-us">JOIN US</a></li>
<li><a class="foot-fb" href="https://www.facebook.com/JMLDirect" target="_blank" alt="JML on Facebook"></a></li>
<li><a class="foot-tw" href="https://twitter.com/JML_Direct" target="_blank" alt="JML on Twitter"></a></li>
<li><a class="foot-yt" href="http://www.youtube.com/user/JMLdirect" target="_blank" alt="JMl's YouTube Channel"></a></li>
</ul>
<ul class="newsletter">
<li><label for="emailsignup"><a class="join-us">SIGN UP TO OUR NEWSLETTER</a></label></li>
<li><form></form></li>
</ul>
</div>
CSS:
#socialfooter {
background: url("../images/social_icons/social_footer_wrapper_1010.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
clear: both;
display: block;
height: 55px;
margin: 0 auto;
width: 1010px;
}
#socialfooter ul.getSocial {
display: inline;
float: left;
list-style-type: none;
margin: 7px 0 0 46px;
width: 192px;
}
#socialfooter ul.newsletter {
display: inline;
float: right;
height: 38px;
list-style-type: none;
padding: 7px 11px 9px 0;
width: 564px;
}
You have set a width on the parent div:
#socialfooter{ width:1010px;}
and then floated the newsletter ul to the right of that div:
#socialfooter ul.newsletter{float:right; width:564px;}
The problem with this is that the iPad doesn't have the resolution to display such a wide div (#socialfooter).
If you want the content to show up, use percentage based widths like this:
#socialfooter {
background: url("../images/social_icons/social_footer_wrapper_1010.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
clear: both;
display: block;
height: 55px;
margin: 0 auto;
width: 100%;
}
#socialfooter ul.getSocial {
display:inline-block;
box-sizing: border-box;
float:left;
list-style-type:none;
margin:.5em 0 0 2em;
width:50%;
}
#socialfoter ul.newsletter {
display: inline-block;
box-sizing: border-box;
float:right;
vertical-align: middle;
list-style-type: none;
padding:0 2em 0 0;
width:50%;
}
EDIT:
#socialfooter {
background: url("../images/social_icons/social_footer_wrapper_1010.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent; //
^ This background is causing the issue. It is an image that is set to 1010px, so even CSS isn't going to help you there.
clear: both;
display: block;
height: 55px;
margin: 0 auto;
width: 100%;
}
#socialfooter ul.getSocial {
display:inline-block;
box-sizing: border-box;
float:left;
list-style-type:none;
margin:.5em 0 0 2em;
width:30%;
}
^ Changed the width to accommodate the large input field on the right side
#socialfoter ul.newsletter {
display: inline-block;
box-sizing: border-box;
float:right;
vertical-align: middle;
list-style-type: none;
padding:0 2em 0 0;
width:70%;
}
^ And gave this right side more width to make room for your input.
ANSWER:
1. Markup:
<div class=“socialfooter”>

How can I make my li that contains an a clickable?

So I'm trying to figure out a way to make the tabs in my navigation bar clickable as well as the link text. Adding padding: 20px 30px; makes the second to last tab shift up and the text shift to the right. I'm willing to do some major alterations so please any answer is a good one.Here's my HTML.
<div id="tab_container">
<nav id="tabs">
<ul id="nav">
<li class="active">About</li>
<li class="inactive">Services</li>
<li class="inactive">Our Staff</li>
<li class="inactive">book</li>
<li class="inactive">Gift Cards</li>
<li class="inactive">Reviews</li>
</ul>
</nav>
</div>
Heres the CSS...
#tab_container
{
background-color: #222;
display: -webkit-box;
-webkit-box-flex: 1;
display: block;
position: relative;
max-width: 970px;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
#tabs
{
float: left;
margin-top: 0px;
width: 100%;
max-width: 970px;
background-color: #222;
padding-top: 20px;
text-align: center;
}
#nav
{
width: 100%;
max-width: 970px;
text-align: center;
}
ul
{

background color doesn't show on hover

I'm working on a new responsive design and I'm having an issue with my menu that I cannot figure out. Basically I want the background of the menu item to turn white when you hover over it and the text to turn blue. Right now, the text turns blue but the background will not turn white.
HTML Code:
<div class="header">
<div class="header_content">
<div class="logo">
<img src="images/new_logo.png" class="hdr_logo">
</div>
<div class="main_menu">
<ul>
<li>ABOUT US</li>
<li>OPERATIONS BRANCH</li>
<li>LOGISTICS BRANCH</li>
<li style="border-right:0;">COMMUNITY</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
.header {
background: url('images/header2.png') repeat-x top left;
width: 100%;
height: 150px;
color: #FFF;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
.header_content {
width: 960px;
margin: 0 auto;
height: 150px;
padding: 0;
}
.logo {
float:left;
width:120px;
}
.main_menu {
float:left;
height: 30px;
margin-top: 120px;
line-height: 30px;
padding: 0;
width: 830px;
}
.main_menu ul {
list-style-type: none;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
text-align: center;
overflow: hidden;
height: 30px;
}
.main_menu li {
float: left;
border-right: 1px solid #FFF;
text-align: center;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
padding-left: 2%;
padding-right: 2%;
overflow: hidden;
height: 30px;
cursor: pointer;
}
.main_menu li:hover {
background-image: none;
background-color: #FFF;
color: rgb(33,47,57);
}
EDIT: Problem Resolved
The floated li was not a block element so you could not change it's background color. As soon as I added display:block; to the li it resolved this issue.
Seems to work fine for me: http://jsfiddle.net/s3JT9/
.main_menu li:hover {
background-image: none;
background-color: #FFF;
color: red;
}
I changed the color to red to illustrate.
