I'm wanting to get div 1 to stretch the height of both divs 2 and 3, like you would do with table's rowspan.
I'm not proficient enough with understanding how to do table stuff in divs to figure this one out.
Thanks!
You can use the table/table-cell display css options.
UPDATED Fixed stretching issue.
<div style="display:table">
<div style="display:table-cell;height:100%;" class="div1">
1
</div>
<div style="display:table-cell;width:100%">
<div class="div2">2</div>
<div class="div2">3</div>
</div>
</div>

Here's what I would do. Create a div around all of your current div, then use css positioning to edit the lengths within the div.
Here's an example,
http://jsfiddle.net/tjgerot/v2469Leu/
<div class="table">
<div class="div1">1</div>
<div class="div2">2</div>
<div class="div2">3</div>
</div>
I would use a container to hold your DIV 2,3. Then margin the left of the container to allow space for your DIV 1.
Im not sure it's the smoothest way to code, but it works.

I've got two divs and would like to align their baselines. However, one of the divs has more than one line of text and some embedded content, and while I'd like to align them to the top baselines, the browser seems to align to the bottom one.
I've built a JSFiddle here to illustrate, with the following HTML:
<div style='display:inline-block;'>NOTE:</div>
<div style='display:inline-block; width:200px;'>
Here's <div class='embedded'></div> an embedded div and more text
</div>
and CSS:
.embedded {
width:40px;
height:40px;
display:inline-block;
vertical-align:-15px;
border:1px solid black;
}
What I'd like is this:
What I get is this:
A pure-CSS solution would be nice, but I'm not against using JavaScript here either. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
You can do it quite simply with a wrapping div and a bit of flex box.
.wrapper {
display: flex;
align-items: baseline;
}
.note {
margin-right: 1ch;
}
.embedded {
width: 40px;
height: 40px;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: -15px;
border: 1px solid black;
}
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="note" style='display:inline-block;'>NOTE:</div>
<div style='display:inline-block; width:200px;'>
Here's <div class='embedded'></div> an embedded div and more text
</div>
</div>
This will solve your issue:
`<div style="display: flex;">
<div style="padding-top: 13px;">NOTE: </div>
<div>
<p style="display:inline">
Here's
<span class='embedded'></span>
an embedded div
<br/>
and more text
</p>
</div>
</div>`

I've searched quite a bit looking for an explanation as to why this behavior is occurring.
Essentially I've setup 2 columns, each with a nav bar and content area.
CSS
#mainContainer {
background-color: lightblue;
width: 100%;
height: 300px;
}
#leftContainer, #rightContainer {
border: 1px solid black;
display: inline-block;
background-color: red;
width: 40%;
height: 100%;
}
#leftBar, #rightBar {
background-color: purple;
height: 10%;
}
#leftMain, #rightMain {
background-color: grey;
height: 90%;
}
HTML
<div id="mainContainer">
<div id="leftContainer">
<div id="leftBar"></div>
<div id="leftMain"></div>
</div>
<div id="rightContainer">
<div id="rightBar"></div>
<div id="rightMain"></div>
</div>
</div>
Whenever I add an element to the nav bar in only one column it shifts the entire column down.
http://jsfiddle.net/qn6rs0q2/3/
<div id="mainContainer">
<div id="leftContainer">
<div id="leftBar">
<button>Test</button>
</div>
<div id="leftMain"></div>
</div>
<div id="rightContainer">
<div id="rightBar"></div>
<div id="rightMain"></div>
</div>
</div>
But if I add another element to the other column they line up again.
http://jsfiddle.net/qn6rs0q2/5/
<div id="mainContainer">
<div id="leftContainer">
<div id="leftBar">
<button>Test</button>
</div>
<div id="leftMain"></div>
</div>
<div id="rightContainer">
<div id="rightBar">
<button>Test 2</button>
</div>
<div id="rightMain"></div>
</div>
</div>
To clarify, I'm not looking for a solution to fix this behavior. Rather I'm hoping someone can explain the underlying reason behind why it's behaving as it is. Thanks in advance.
It happens because the default vertical alignment of inline elements is the baseline. If you set the vertical alignment to top (or middle) for both sides, they line up as you want:
#leftContainer, #rightContainer {
border: 1px solid black;
display: inline-block;
background-color: red;
width: 40%;
height: 100%;
vertical-align:top;
}
jsFiddle example
In this fiddle : http://jsfiddle.net/H4F8H/16/
I'm attempting to center two divs by wrapping an outer div and centering it :
<div style="margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;">
But the divs are remaining left aligned. How can I center these divs on page ?
fiddle code :
HTML :
<div style="margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;">
<div id="block">
<img height="50" style="max-width: 50px;background-position: top left;" src="http://socialmediababe.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/administrator.jpg" />

#block {
margin-right:100px;
border-width: 2px;
border-color: #4682B4;
background-color: WHITE;
width: 100px;
text-align: center;
line-height:30px;
padding:3px 0;
float:left;
}
img{
float:left;
}
#block:hover {
background-color: #C2DFFF ;
}
div is a block level element by default so it will take up 100% of horizontal space if you do not assign some width to it, so you need to assign some width to your container
<div style="margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto; width: 300px;">
Here, you can just set the width accordingly. Also avoid using inline CSS.
Your CSS is lil sloppy, for example margin-right:100px; is not required, also, you can use shorthand like
margin: 0 auto; = margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;
Demo (Added a red border just to show the boundaries)
Note: You are floating your elements, so make sure you clear your floats either by using <div style="clear: both;"></div> which I've already done in the demo provided, else you can also use the snippet below to self clear the parent like
.clear:after {
display: table;
clear: both;
content: "";
}
A couple things I want to point out in this post:
You have set Id="block" in two different instances. Id's are meant to be unique. If you want a reusable identifier you should be using classes.
Inline styling should be avoided when possible. In this case there is no need to set inline styling on the parent div.
There is more then one way to center div's
I am going to leave this link here: http://thenewcode.com/723/Seven-Ways-of-Centering-With-CSS
This would be my solution:
html:
<div class="container">
<div class="block">
<span>Test</span>
</div>
<div class="block">
<span>Test 2</span>
</div>
</div>
css:
.container {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
}
.block {
display: flex;
background: grey;
width: 30%;
height: 200px;
border: 1px solid #777;
margin: 5px;
}
Give a width to that container.
#outerdiv{
margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;
width:500px;
}
<div align="center">
<!-- -staff ->
</div>
margin:auto; doesn't work unless the width is specified...
<div style="margin:auto;width:100px;">
your content here. [Replace the width with your choice]
</div>
Giving width and margin auto will centralise the content in specified width.
<div style="margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;width:400px;">//give variable width here..Normally 1000 to 1018..
<div id="block">
<img height="50" style="max-width: 50px;background-position: top left;" src="http://socialmediababe.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/administrator.jpg" />

Sorry guys for the really simple question but I have tried to float one div left and one right with predefined widths along these lines
<div style="width: 100%;">
<div style="float:left; width: 80%">
</div>
<div style="float:right;">
</div>
</div>
Although this 'mostly' works it seems to mess up the other elements on the page below it.
So what is the correct why to split a HTML page vertically into two parts using CSS without effecting other elements on the page?
you can use..
<div style="width: 100%;">
<div style="float:left; width: 80%">
</div>
<div style="float:right;">
</div>
</div>
<div style="clear:both"></div>
now element below this will not be affected.
Just add overflow:auto; to parent div
<div style="width: 100%;overflow:auto;">
<div style="float:left; width: 80%">
</div>
<div style="float:right;">
</div>
</div>
Working Demo
I guess your elements on the page messes up because you don't clear out your floats, check this out
Demo
HTML
<div class="wrap">
<div class="floatleft"></div>
<div class="floatright"></div>
<div style="clear: both;"></div>
</div>
CSS
.wrap {
width: 100%;
}
.floatleft {
float:left;
width: 80%;
background-color: #ff0000;
height: 400px;
}
.floatright {
float: right;
background-color: #00ff00;
height: 400px;
width: 20%;
}
There can also be a solution by having both float to left.
Try this out:
Working Demo
P.S. This is just an improvement of Ankit's Answer
Check out this fiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/G6N5T/1574/
CSS/HTML code:
.wrap {
width: 100%;
overflow:auto;
}
.fleft {
float:left;
width: 33%;
background:lightblue;
height: 400px;
}
.fcenter{
float:left;
width: 33%;
background:lightgreen;
height:400px;
margin-left:0.25%;
}
.fright {
float: right;
background:pink;
height: 400px;
width: 33.5%;
}
<div class="wrap">
<!--Updated on 10/8/2016; fixed center alignment percentage-->
<div class="fleft">Left</div>
<div class="fcenter">Center</div>
<div class="fright">Right</div>
</div>
This uses the CSS float property for left, right, and center alignments of divs on a page.
Alternatively, you can also use a special function known as the linear-gradient() function to split browser screen into two equal halves.
Check out the following code snippet:
body
{
background-image:linear-gradient(90deg, lightblue 50%, skyblue 50%);
}
Here, linear-gradient() function accepts three arguments
90deg for vertical division of screen.( Similarly, you can use 180deg for horizontal division of screen)
lightblue color is used to represent the left half of the screen.
skyblue color has been used to represent the right half of the split screen.
Here, 50% has been used for equal division of the browser screen. You can use any other value if you don't want an equal division of the screen.
Hope this helps. :)
Happy Coding!
Here is the flex-box approach:
CSS
.parent {
display:flex;
height:100vh;
}
.child{
flex-grow:1;
}
.left{
background:#ddd;
}
.center{
background:#666;
}
.right{
background:#999;
}
HTML
<div class="parent">
<div class="child left">Left</div>
<div class="child center">Center</div>
<div class="child right">Right</div>
</div>
You can try the same in js fiddle.
I've searched high and low and cannot find a solution specific to this problem. I'm trying to accomplish the following:
Have a container DIV defined with a percentage height to serve as max-size container
A secondary container DIV that provides a content size-based borde
Have a header div that is fixed at the top of that DIV
Have a list of DIVs (table-like) under the header
When the list is short, the border is reduced to size of content
When list if long (> height of outer container), scrollbar is shown for DIV list and not header.
I put together the following simplified version:
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
.panel { height: 10%; border: 1px solid red; overflow: hidden; margin-top: 10px; }
.sizer { max-height: 100%; border: 1px solid blue; }
.header { border-bottom: 1px solid black; }
.scroll { max-height: 100%; overflow: auto; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="panel">
<div class="sizer">
<div class="wrap">
<div class="header">Header</div>
<div class="scroll">
<div>Line1</div>
<div>Line2</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="panel">
<div class="sizer">
<div class="wrap">
<div class="header">Header</div>
<div class="scroll">
<div>Line1</div>
<div>Line2</div>
<div>Line3</div>
<div>Line4</div>
<div>Line5</div>
<div>Line6</div>
<div>Line7</div>
<div>Line8</div>
<div>Line9</div>
<div>Line10</div>
<div>Line11</div>
<div>Line12</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
The two red boxes should be fixed size. Check
The blue box should size to be the size of the content or size of red box maximum. Check
When contents in lower exceed red box size, scrollbar should be displayed under header. Fail
Any change I make that gets the scrollbar displayed causes the top blue box to enlarge to the size of it's container, red box. e.g., { .scroll height: 100% }
(The DIV.wrap does have a purpose - just not in this example. It is intended to provide a double-border effect on the sizer, so it should be the same size as sizer all the time).
Also, I have figured out some solutions where I used fixed (px) sizes for the DIVs, but this is not necessarily desired. Especially on DIV.panel - this must be set to a percentage height.
Not completely sure i understand the question, but if you want the scroll on the list but not on the header, have you tried:
overflow-y:scroll;
on the "scroll" div instead of
overflow:auto?
Let me know
Ok i think maybe i worked it out. I think cause you have overflow:hidden and a height on the container div, and not the variable scroll div. Just try the code below and let me know. I have added the height of 10% to the scroll div and not the overall container. Hope thats what you were looking for
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
.panel { border: 1px solid red; overflow: hidden; margin-top: 10px; }
.sizer { max-height: 100%; border: 1px solid blue; display:block;}
.header { border-bottom: 1px solid black; }
.scroll { height: 10%;overflow-y: scroll; display:block; }
.scroll div {display:block; line-height:normal; clear:both; height:20px;}
</style>
</head>
