beginning from a layout to two column where column-left was fixed and column-right was liquid i have need to add a third column of widht fixed. I have this code:
<did id="#container">
<div id="#col1"> left fixed 15em </div>
<div id="#col2"> center liquid </div>
<div id="#col3"> right fixed 15em </div>
</div>
With this css:
#container {
background-color: #ffffff;
height: auto;
overflow: hidden;
}
#col1 {
float: left;
margin: 1em;
padding: 0.5em;
width: 15em;
}
#col2 {
float: none;
width: auto;
overflow: hidden;
margin: 1em;
padding: 0.5em;
}
#col3 {
float: right;
margin: 1em;
padding: 0.5em;
width: 15em;
}
The result is that third column it is located below the second column to right. How i can fix this problem?
The final result should to be a layout to three column where left and right column are fixed and central column is liquid.
Thank very much.
I like to use CSS tables for these layouts:
Note that you shouldn't use # in the id attribute.
#container {
width: 100%;
display: table;
}
#container>div {
display: table-cell;
}
#col1 {
background: lightblue;
padding: 0.5em;
width: 15em;
}
#col2 {
background: lightyellow;
padding: 0.5em;
}
#col3 {
background: lightgreen;
padding: 0.5em;
width: 15em;
}
<div id="container">
<div id="col1"> left fixed 15em </div>
<div id="col2"> center liquid </div>
<div id="col3"> right fixed 15em </div>
</div>
This is what flex boxes were invented for:
#container {
display: flex;
}
#col2 {
flex: 1;
}
#col1,
#col3 {
flex: 0 0 15em;
}
<did id="container">
<div id="col1">left fixed 15em</div>
<div id="col2">center liquid</div>
<div id="col3">right fixed 15em</div>
</div>
Extra Info: This is a very old web layout problem (called the "Holy Grail" of Layouts), see this article for a complete description. Also, see Mozilla's Using Flexible Boxes.
Note: In id properties don't include the # (that's used when selecting by id)
First of all, your html is invalid :
did should be div
id="..." should not contains #
HTML updated:
<div id="container">
<div id="col1"> left fixed 15em </div>
<div id="col2"> center liquid </div>
<div id="col3"> right fixed 15em </div>
</div>
For the CSS, you can change your rule #col2 float: none to float: left
JSFIDDLE: http://jsfiddle.net/ghorg12110/5p175fms/
You could try the following:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Three column layout</title>
<style>
body { margin: 0; overflow: hidden }
#V { position: absolute; top: 1em; left: 1em; width: 15em; border: 1px solid red; padding: .5em }
#W { position: absolute; top: 1em; right: 1em; bottom: 0; left: 1em; margin: 0 17em }
#X { border: 1px solid blue; padding: .5em }
#Y { position: absolute; top: 1em; right: 1em; width: 15em; border: 1px solid green; padding: .5em }
</style>
<div id=V>
Left content

<div id=W>
<div id=X>
Middle content
</div>
</div>
<div id=Y>
Right content

I am looking for a pure CSS approach to hide div 3 that has partially overflown its container. See the attached image.
Here's a working solution that'll entirely hide an item that wouldn't fit in the fixed height of its parent: Codepen
It uses Multi-Column Layout in a tricky way with :pseudos and overflow: hidden as a final touch. OK on Fx, Chrome, Edge and IE11 (if you don't use Custom Properties as I did for a better understanding. Preprocessor variables will be fine)
.container has a fixed height otherwise the question makes no sense
Same .container is twice as large as expected. It has 2 columns with no gap/gutter
Its :pseudo :after exists (the translucid tomato blob) and thus is considered as a 4th item to be taken into account in this 2-columns layout. Its height is 100% => it makes the 3rd item occupy the 2nd column if it doesn't have enough room on 1st column (2nd example)
Parent .mask has the width we want (half of .container) and overflow: hidden: the 2nd column of .container is clipped. You can remove latter declaration to see what it clips
…
Profit!

Our team looked for solution on hiding vertically content which overflows
But, simple overflow: hidden wouldn't work because it can hide overflowing content partially.
And we wanted to hide it fully.
So, #FelipeAls suggested to use css columns
And yes, it actually works

Hope this will help you. In case If you want to hide it, use property overflow: hidden
.container {
max-height: 300px;
width: 500px;
padding: 20px;
border: 1px solid #ddd;
overflow: auto;
}
.el {
padding: 10px;
margin: 10px 0;
height: 130px;
border: 1px solid #ddd;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="el">Div 1</div>
<div class="el">Div 2</div>
<div class="el">Div 3</div>
</div>
.container{
width: 500px;
height: 800px;
background-color: gray;
border:1px solid black;
text-align: center;
overflow: hidden;
}
.box{
display: inline-block;
width: 400px;
height: 300px;
background-color: lightgray;
margin: 20px 0px;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="box">div 1</div>
<div class="box">div 2</div>
<div class="box">div 3</div>
</div>
I feel like this is such an idiotic question, and the little things in css always get me. Anyway, I have a design, and I'm trying to do 2 columns. One (which is a sidebar of 300px) which is at the right, and the other column should fill the remaining space.
As you can see the sidebar is put under the div on the left.
HTML:
<div class="wfix"><div class="col-fix">
<div class="col-lg">
<!--
<div id="block">
<bh>Homepage</bh>
<detail id="test">Loading...</detail>
</div>
-->
</div>
<div class="col-side">
</div>
</div></div>
CSS:
.wfix{ margin-left: 5em; margin-right: 5em; }
.col-fix {
display: table;
width: 100%;
table-layout: fixed;
}
.col-lg, .col-side {
color: #999;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
.col-lg {
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: 300px;
padding-top: 0px;
display: block;
vertical-align: top;
background-color: blue;
min-height: 500px;
}
.col-side {
width: 300px;
float: right;
padding-top: 0px;
display: block;
vertical-align: top;
background-color: red;
min-height: 500px;
}
thanks for any help, Jake.
Floating elements should appear first in the html:
<div class="wfix">
<div class="col-fix">
<div class="col-side"></div>
<div class="col-lg"></div>
</div>
</div>
Demo
What I want to do is have a <div> with a container class and a fixed width, holding a <div> with the block class to prevent other content encroaching on any uneven blank space, then two columns (<div>'s) side-by-side inside the block, and to be 50% of the width of the block.
When I create this, I get what appears to be a margin after the first block, which I do not want. I want the block to pack up tight, no margins.
I have an example here of what I have so far, and here if the code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Columns</title>
<style>
div {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
.container {
background: #DDD;
width: 1200px;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 2% 0;
}
.block {
background: #555;
width: 100%;
display: block;
}
.col {
width: 49%;
display: inline-block;
background: #333;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="block">
<div class="col left">
<h1>Left</h1>
</div>
<div class="col right">
<h1>Right</h1>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Your problem is being causes by inline-block, using this makes a space appear inbetween.
Try using float:left to get around this:
See on jsFiddle
.col {
width: 50%;
float: left;
box-sizing: border-box;
background: #333;
}
Note that I added, box-sizing:border-box; this means when you use padding it will be included in the width, not on top of it. Effectively enabling the use of it without an extra inner div.
Remember to include a clear fix afterwards also to "clear" the floats.
CSS
.clear {
clear:both;
}
HTML
<div class="block">
<div class="col left">
<h1>Left</h1>
</div>
<div class="col right">
<h1>Right</h1>
</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
Try replacing these classes:
.block {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #555555;
display: block;
overflow: auto;
width: 100%;
}
.col {
width: 49%;
float: left;
background: #333;
}
.container {
background: #DDD;
width: 900px;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 30px 30px 30px 30px;
}
.block {
background: #555;
width: 100%;
display: block;
}
.block:after {
content: "";
display: table;
clear: both;
}
.col {
width: 50%;
float: left;
background: #333;
}
I want to have an image centered within each DIV that is floating left within a larger DIV.
In the following example, I want the gray boxes ("assetInfoBody") to be centered within the green boxes ("assetBox"). What else can I try here beside text-align:center and margin:auto?
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
#assets {
background-color: orange;
padding: 5px;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.assetbox {
background-color: lightgreen;
float: left;
width: 100px;
margin-right: 5px;
text-align: center;
}
.assetInfoBody {
background-color: grey;
position: relative;
width: 80px;
text-align: center;
}
.centeredItem {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
top: 0px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="assets">
<div class="assetbox">
<div class="assetInfoBody">
<div class="centeredItem">
<img src="images/box.png"/>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="assetbox">
<div class="assetInfoBody">
<div class="centeredItem">
<img src="images/box.png"/>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="assetbox">
<div class="assetInfoBody">
<div class="centeredItem">
<img src="images/box.png"/>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
See this example for a reference to how you could achieve this. As your class .assetInfoBody class has a set width you can align the .centeredItem by applying the rule margin:0 auto to it. By also applying text-align:center to .centeredItem you're able to always keep the image centered within it.
probably you want a css like that:
#assets {
background-color: orange;
padding: 5px;
width: 100%;
}
.assetbox {
background-color: lightgreen;
display: inline-block;
width: 100px;
margin-right: 5px;
}
.assetInfoBody {
background-color: grey;
margin: 0 auto !important;
width: 80px;
}
.centeredItem {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
I have a container layer with a width of 850px. Inside of that i have 4 layers displayed as inline-blocks floating left, each of which are 100px high and 200px wide.
How can i space them so the outside ones line up at the edges of the container div but are spaced evenly within?
css
#content {
width: 850px;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
}
#featured {
display: inline-block;
height: 100px;
width: 200px;
float: left;
margin-left: 10px;
margin-top: 10px;
background-color: #09F;
}
html
<div id=content>
<div id=featured></div>
<div id=featured></div>
<div id=featured></div>
<div id=featured></div>
</div>
It's not really going to work, because you have a container that's 850px wide and you're trying to spread 4 200px wide containers with three gutters between them. 4*200 = 800 so you have 50px spread in which to split 3 gutters 50/3 is 16.6666ish which isn't going to work for pixels.
The following works, but I don't know how useful it is for you.
#content {
width: 848px;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
background: #666;
overflow: hidden;
}
#featured {
display: inline-block;
height: 100px;
width: 200px;
float: left;
margin-left: 16px;
margin-top: 10px;
background-color: #09F;
}
#featured.first { margin-left: 0px;}
<div id=content>
<div id=featured class="first"></div>
<div id=featured></div>
<div id=featured></div>
<div id=featured></div>
</div>
There are a couple of ways to do this. One cross-browser solution I have found is to use an extra wrapper div and get creative with it's true dimensions and negative margins.
<div id="content">
<div class="kludge">
<div class="featured"></div>
<div class="featured"></div>
<div class="featured"></div>
<div class="featured"></div>
</div>
</div>
I changed id=featured to a class name because ids should be unique if you want your HTML to be valid.
The CSS:
#content {
width: 850px;
margin: 0 auto; /* short-hand for margin, first value is top+bottom, second value is left+right */
overflow: hidden; /* not actually necessary but will make #container contain the floated items */
}
.kludge {
width: 900px; /* create room for the right hand margin of last item */
margin-right: -50px;
}
.featured {
display: block; /* inline-block not necessary for floated elements */
height: 100px;
width: 200px;
float: left;
margin: 0 10px;
background-color: #09F;
}
I think the easiest way is:
<style>
#content {
width: 850px;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
border:1px solid #000
}
#featured1 {
display: inline-block;
height: 100px;
width: 200px;
float: left;
margin-left: 0px;
margin-top: 10px;
background-color: #09F;
}
#featured2 {
display: inline-block;
height: 100px;
width: 200px;
float: left;
margin-left: 16px;
margin-top: 10px;
background-color: #09F;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id=content>
<div id=featured1></div>
<div id=featured2></div>
<div id=featured2></div>
<div id=featured2></div>
</div>
Maybe not what you need, but If IE6 support is not important pseudo selectors are perfect for this, and avoid any HTML fudges (tested in IE7, FF3.5):
CSS:
#content {
width: 848px;
margin: 0 auto;
overflow: auto;
}
.featured {
height: 100px;
width: 200px;
float: left;
margin-left: 16px;
margin-top: 10px;
background-color: #09F;
}
.featured:first-child {
margin-left: 0;
}
HTML:
<div id="content">
<div class="featured"></div>
<div class="featured"></div>
<div class="featured"></div>
<div class="featured"></div>
</div>
