Is there a way of closing the gaps between elements without using column or rows?
I've build this
<div class="box">
<p>Short height</p>
</div>
<div class="box">
<ul>
<li>Something</li>
<li>To</li>
<li>make</li>
<li>height</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="box">
<p>Short height</p>
</div>
<div class="box">
<p>Oh no! I'm not in the place where I should me! DX </p>
</div>
CSS
.box{
width:30%;
margin:0% 1.6666%;
float:left;
}
How can I make the elements stop starting after the height of the previous longest element. Not even too sure how to word it!?
So instead of starting underneath the tallest, the 4th element should start underneath the element exactly above it.
Is it even possible?
The margin attribute in your css is doing the problem. Just remove the margin. Please let me know if it is the workable solution.
you could try either having them in the same box to keep them together or try removing the margin
here is a fiddle with the margin removed
https://jsfiddle.net/49uzyskh/
css
.box{
width:30%;
/*margin:1.6666%;*/
float:left;
}

If yes,
you can refer the plugin here:

my html looks like this:
<div class="container">
<div class="header-content">
hello!
</div>
</div>
i've recently come into a situation where I need the 'header' to be 100% the window for a full-width background. usually i would do this css:
<div class="header-background-color">
<div class="container">
<div class="header-content">
hi!
</div>
</div>
</div>
unfortunately, i am fairly deep into a framework and can't wrap the container. i need to construct it within the container.
<div class="container">
<div class="header-background-color">
<div class="container">
<div class="header-content">
hi!
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
i can't figure out a way to accomplish this, and am wondering if this is possible.
if i use this css for header-background-color
background: blue;
left:0;
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
the element looks right, but the page flow is interrupted.
does anyone know if my target goal is reachable?
i made a bootply to illustrate this http://www.bootply.com/129060
You can use a child (>) selector to select the first container element and set its width to 100% and remove the padding.
.example-3 > .container {
width: 100%;
padding: 0;
}
This assumes you'll always have a wrapper around it with a unique class name (or use body if it's the first div), but this also allows you to remove the position: absolute which is causing the overlap and the height can stay dynamic.
See forked bootply: http://www.bootply.com/129065
I've added a button that inserts a paragraph into the div so you can see how it's not affected by changes in height.
Only thing I can think of is using a dumby element to maintain the vertical space (i.e. set the height), and then use absolute positioning on the full width content (as you mention). This is really ugly and won't be a good solution if the height of the content is dynamic.
See #content_dumby element in forked bootply: http://www.bootply.com/129063
What is required to make links in bootstrap grids work throughout all the media breakpoints ?
In my case, the links work only as long as the grid is not stacked.
This is what the grid looks like:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
<a href="#" class="room" style="height: 155.60px; width: calc(25.0% - 4px);"> <span>Item 1</span>
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-12">
<p>This is another row</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The working fiddle is here:
http://jsfiddle.net/pTw2j/8/
Edit Thanks for the fast answer. I chose overflow:hidden; at the end to avoid scrollbars while still fixing the issue.
The problem is that the links are floated, resulting in a height of 0 for the parent .storey container.
Setting overflow: auto on the container will fix the problem.
http://jsfiddle.net/pTw2j/13/
.storey {
overflow: auto;
}
This is referred to as "clearfixing." If you're interested in learning more, here are two good articles:
CSS Tricks: Force Element to Self-Clear its Children
David Walsh: CSS Clear Fix
I had the same problem. In my case a better solution was to add the class of "clearfix" to the containing div. Bootstrap has this class built in so you don't have to do anything with your CSS.
Adding overflow:auto will result in a horizontal scroll bar. Best to use clearfix class which resolves the issue.
I really need your help on this one:
Right now I have divs just on top of each other, filled dynamically with diverse contents so the heights are changing.
What I want to do now is to place them in 2 rows. With a fixed width and "float:left" this kinda works already.
My english is not the very best so pls take a look at my example picture first:
As you can see there is this whitespace because of the third div which doesn't start right beneath the first div because of div number 2 which CAN BE higher as the first div.
I now wonder if there is a possibility to automatically position those divs higher so that there is no whitespace (they always should start right beneath the picture which is above wouth the whitespace, left or right).
LIKE THIS:
I hope you kinda understand what I mean :D Thanks in advance for replys!
EDIT:
Code-Example:
<div id="content">
<div class="xyz">BLABLA</div>
<div class="xyz">BLABLA<br>morebla!<br>EVEN MORE BLA</div>
<div class="xyz">BLABLA</div>
</div>
<style>
#content {
width: 648px;
}
.xyz {
width: 303px;
float: left;
border:1px solid black;
}
</style>
Remeber, heights are always different!
jQuery masonry makes your life a lot easier.. don't reinvent the wheel, especially when you're facing a classic css problem.
this will do it...
<div id="content">
<div class="column1" id="left">
<div id="div1">...</div>
<div id="div3">...</div>
</div>
<div class="column2" id="left">
<div id="div2">...</div>
<div id="div4">...</div>
</div>
</div>
Then just style column2 styles by defining widht values in your css.
Thanks,

I'm getting some strange whitespace between two divs I have.
Each div has the css property display: inline-block and each have a set height and width.
I cannot find where the whitespace is.
Here is a Fiddle
You get whitespace there because you have whitespace inbetween the divs. Whitespace between inline elements is interpreted as a space.
You have:
<div id="left_side">
<div id="plan">
<h1>div 1</h1>
</div>
</div>
<div id="right_side">
<div id="news">
<h1>div 2</h1>
</div>
</div>
Change for:
<div id="left_side">
<div id="plan">
<h1>div 1</h1>
</div>
</div><div id="right_side">
<div id="news">
<h1>div 2</h1>
</div>
</div>
However, this is a bad way to do what you want to do.
You should float the elements if thats what you want to do.
Use:
float:left;
clear:none;
In both div
If you want to retain your coding layout, avoid floats and keep each div on it's own line entirely...
<div id="leftSide">Some content here</div><!--
--><div id="rightSide">Some more content here</div>
Only add this to your CSS
h1 {
padding:0;
margin:0;
}
Space between div is only due to h1 Margin and Padding
This does the trick:
<div id="left_side">
...
</div><div id="right_side">
...
</div>
Notice how the right-side div starts immediately after the closing tag of the left-side div. This works because any space between the elements, since they are now inline, would become a space in the layout itself. You can mirror this behavior with two span elements.
Demo.
You can also add display: flex; to the divs' parent container (in this case, body). Fiddle.
best way is settings parent element's font-size to 0 then normal font-size to child elements inside that parent (otherwise inherits zero from parent)
Floated both of the elements left, also made the 30% width into 40% to fill all the space, but this isn't necessary. Please be aware, "inline-block" isn't supported by IE7 but can be fixed with a workaround.
http://jsfiddle.net/RVAQp/3/
Move these statements onto the same line:
</div><div id="right_side">
Tried using float instead of "inline-block", no problems. Just changed the display:inline-block to:
#left_side {float: left;}
and
#right_side {float: right; margin-right: 10%}
No apparent problems. Could be wrong.
Don't know why but I resolved this problem by adding border: 1px solid red;(vertical) and float: left;(horizontal) to related DIV style statement and white-spaces removed.
Parent div set to font-size: 0px and chiilds to wanted size like 17px :)
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/
