I have the following markup:
<ul class="info-list">
<li class="info-item">
<div class="name">Name</div>
<img class="preview" src="/Image.png" />
<div class="data-wrapper">
Data
</div>
<div class="description">
Description
</div>
</li>
<li class="info-item">
<div class="name">Name</div>
<img class="preview" src="/Image.png" />
<div class="data-wrapper">
Data
</div>
<div class="description">
Here is a description. More description. Very descriptive.
</div>
</li>
</ul>
And here is the matching style:
.info-list{
text-align: center;
}
.info-item{
margin: 4px;
padding: 10px;
display: inline-block;
cursor: pointer;
background-color: black;
}
.preview{
margin: 4px 4px 4px 0;
float: left;
display: block;
width: 128px;
height: 128px;
}
.data-wrapper{
margin: 4px 0 4px 4px;
float: left;
width: 128px;
height: 128px;
}
.description{
clear: both;
width: 264px;
height: 100px;
}
The problem you will see is that the second element's height is equal with the first, but it is being propped up from the length of the content in the div.description element. This can be fixed by applying white-space: nowrap to either the div.description or the div.list-item elements but this causes the div.description content to overflow to the right. How can I fix this list? I do not want to float the elements because I want them to be centered within the list, but the inline whitespace handling is causing issues for some reason even though the div.description elements are all the same height / width.
Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/kap6quf6/2/
The default vertical alignment for inline elements is baseline, so you can set it to middle or top for .info-item so that they align:
.info-item {
margin: 4px;
padding: 10px;
display: inline-block;
cursor: pointer;
background-color: lightgray;
vertical-align:middle;
}

How to I align my text and image on the same line?
Whenever I used padding or margins it crashes into the circle image I'm using.

margin-left: 240px

Currently It does this:
My desired effect is this:
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
You're making it a little more complicated than it needs to be. Just put two elements as wrappers (one you already have in alignImage, set them to display as inline-block and then put the vertical-align to middle, top, or whatever you like. I got rid of all the bizarre padding, which was messing with the display as well. Looks like that was a holdover from your vertically stacked layout.
Edit – You've also got two elements with the ID alignPhoto. You really, really shouldn't do that. If you need to style two different elements with one rule, please use classes instead.
#alignPhoto {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
#alignPhoto img {
border-radius: 100%;
}
#alignImage {
position: relative;
}
.alignText {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.titleBoldText { text-align: right; }
<div class="alignText">
<div class="titleBoldText">Mary Smith</div>
<div id=alignCompany class="titleText">Morris Realty and Investments</div>
</div>
<div id="alignPhoto">
<div class="circle" id=image role="image">
<img src="http://placehold.it/42x42">
</div>
</div>
<br>
One quick and dirty way to wrap it in a table, as to get your vertical align working without any problems as well.
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<div id="alignPhoto" class="titleBoldText">Mary Smith</div>
<div id="alignCompany" class="titleText">Morris Realty and Investments</div>
</td>
<td>
<img src="image/url" alt=""/>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

What about slightly simpler version:
HTML:
<div id="alignPhoto">
<div class="content-wrapper">
<p>Mary Smith</p>
<p>Morris Realty and Investments</p>
</div>
<div class="image-wrapper" id="image" role="image">
<img src="http://placehold.it/250x200" />
</div>
</div>
CSS:
.content-wrapper { float:left; }
.image-wrapper img { border-radius:50%; }
#alignPhoto {
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
align-items: center;
}
JSFiddle for that
Basically you keep both paragraphs of text in one holding div and float it to left. This alone should do the job.
EDIT:
To make it even simpler, you can use flexbox for vertical alignment.
I've updated the answer.
One of the more effective and scalable solutions to ensuring elements are placed correctly from left to right are to employ wrapper divs with clear:both;. Inside of these wrapper divs you can use float:left or float:right. The wrapper divs allow you to generate a new "row".
#alignPhoto {
float: left;
margin-left: 10px;
}
#profileCompany, #profileName {
display:block;
width:100%;
}
#alignImage {
float: left;
}
.profileWrapper {
float:left;
}
/* Below creates a circle for the image passed from the backend */
.wrapper {
padding: 20px;
font-family: 'Helvetica';
text-align: center;
position: relative;
width: 600px;
clear: both;
}
.profileWrapper:after {
content: "";
width: 200px;
height: 0;
border-top: 42px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 42px solid transparent;
border-right: 40px solid white;
/* Tweak this to increase triangles height */
position: absolute;
right: 0;
top: 0;
}
.circle {
display: block;
height: 50px;
width: 50px;
background-color: #cfcfcf;
-moz-border-radius: 25px;
-webkit-border-radius: 25px;
-khtml-border-radius: 25px;
border-radius: 25px;
}
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="profileWrapper">
<div id=profileName class="titleBoldText">Mary Smith</div>

I have this problem. I searched the site and others were having similar problems, but none of the answers seemed to work. Those included setting line-height to 0px; and setting all margins/paddings to 0px. I use Google Chrome's Inspect Element material to check the margins/paddings. I hovered over my "a" element and "li" element to see if they had any unnecessary paddings or margins, but they didn't.
What was weird is that they had a little white space, not occupied by any element in the entire document, between each link.
Right now, as there are no borders between the text, it is unrecognizable, but the space around the "a" in Link4 is smaller than the space around the text in Link1. The width of the first "li" element is strangely 4px wider than the 4th "li" container, and there is a little white space. I want to get rid of the white space, any ideas?
Here is the code:
CSS:
html {
overflow-y: scroll;
}
body {
background-color: #ffdeff;
overflow: hidden;
}
#wrapper {
width: 1000px;
height: 0px;
overflow: hidden;
margin: auto;
background-color: white;
border-left: 1px solid rgb(210, 210, 210);
}
#header {
width: 1000px;
height: 0px;
overflow: hidden;
margin: auto;
}
#header-toolbar {
width: 1000px;
list-style-type: none;
border-radius: 3px;
position: absolute;
}
#nav-position {
position: absolute;
float: left;
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
}
.nav-link-container {
background-color: #FF66CC;
display: inline;
padding: 0px;
text-align: center;
}
.nav-link {
padding: 0px;
margin-top: 5px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
text-align: center;
line-height: 0px;
display: table;
display: inline;
margin: 0 auto;
}
HTML document:
<body>
<script src="jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>

Anything helps! Thank you very much!
there are some spaces when you put <li> to new line. so one solution is to add them all in same line like here: http://jsfiddle.net/6tzxj/1/
I am trying to align a set of images horizontally within a div tag and then display a horizontal scroll bar when the images exceed the length of the div tag. I am relatively new to CSS and have tried everything I can think of. The below code displays my images vertically!!!
Thank you very much for any help.
Inside the body tag:
<div id="TNBox">
<ul class="imagelist">
<li>
<img id="tnimage1" src="images/tn-images/Rio-Street-Art-TN01.jpg">
</li>
<li>
<img id="tnimage2" src="images/tn-images/Rio-Street-Art-TN02.jpg">
</li>
<li>
<img id="tnimage3" src="images/tn-images/Rio-Street-Art-TN03.jpg">
</li>
<li>
<img id="tnimage4" src="images/tn-images/Rio-Street-Art-TN04.jpg">
</li>
<li>
<img id="tnimage5" src="images/tn-images/Rio-Street-Art-TN05.jpg">
</li>
</ul>
</div>
And the CSS:
#TNBox {
width: 500px;
height: 88px;
border: 1px solid black;
position: absolute;
left: 50px;
top: 320px;
overflow-x: auto;
display: inline-block;
text-decoration: none;
}
.imagelist {
list-style: none;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
#TNBox{
width: 500px;
height: 88px;
border: 1px solid black;
position: absolute;
left: 50px;
top: 320px;
overflow-x: auto;
display: inline-block;
text-decoration: none;
white-space:nowrap;
}
.imagelist{
list-style: none;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
.imagelist li{
display:inline-block;
}
Preview >> jsfiddle (I have styled images too)
Link to fiddle. I also changed the image urls to point to something that exists
http://jsfiddle.net/GVdMz/2/
Here is what I added:
To get the images to display horizontally
.imagelist li{
display: inline;
}
And this will make a horizontal scroll appear if the images extend past the width of #TNBox
#TNBox{
white-space:nowrap;
}
I want to align the text in my div ('what' and 'where') but now that I have the text a the bottom it has pushed the divs (search-field1 and searchfield2) further down the page!
How can I have it so the text doesnt affect this? Is it something to do with the cellpadding/spacing?
Sorry im not the best at CSS I'm teaching myself it.
HTML:
<center>
<div class="what"><p>what?</div>
<div class="where">where?</div>
<div>
</center>
<center>
<div class="search-field1">
</div>
<div class="search-field2">
</div>
</center>
CSS:
.what{
display: inline;
font: 16px HelveticaNeue-Light;
color: #A9E2F3;
font-weight: bold;
height: 35px;
width: 320px;
background: #151515;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: center;
}
.where{
display: inline;
font: 16px HelveticaNeue-Light;
color: #A9E2F3;
font-weight: bold;
height: 35px;
width: 320px;
background: #ffffff;
display: inline-block;
verticle-align: center;
}
.search-field1{
height: 35px;
width: 320px;
background: #ffffff;
border:1px solid;
border-color: #BDBDBD;
display: inline-block;
verticle-align: center;
}
.search-field2{
height: 35px;
width: 320px;
background: #ffffff;
border:1px solid;
border-color: #BDBDBD;
display: inline-block;
horizontal-align: center;
}
Thanks!

James is this what you are looking for? http://jsfiddle.net/jkeyes/WFPK2/
Set the line-height for your containers (in this case .what and .where to be the same as the height:
line-height: 35px;
sounds like you need float:left on your center tags
Html:
<div class="center">
<div class="what">what?</div>
<div class="where">where?</div>
</div>
<div class="center">
<div class="search-field1"></div>
<div class="search-field2"></div>
</div>
CSS:
If you use float:left on the enclosing div's it will allow the two center div's to float side by side.
.center {
float:left;
}
Another option would be to set your line height to zero on the hidden div like so:
line-height: 0px;
Then add padding to the surrounding divs. Like so:
padding-top: 10px;
Hope that helps someone.
I have a CSS problem that I'm not able to figure out. I'm not even sure it is possible. What I want is the following:
I have three buttons/tabs like this http://sv.tinypic.com/r/21cf85t/6 and when you click one tab a different div should show for each tab like this http://sv.tinypic.com/r/21l5y85/6 or http://sv.tinypic.com/r/2dbrv5u/6.
I know how to show/hide the divs with jQuery but the problem is that the divs will increase in height http://sv.tinypic.com/r/k2xxfb/6 and then they will push the other tabs and divs down. Is there a way to create what I am trying to do?
I'm not a guru in CSS so if you have an example to look at or can post code here I would be very very thankful!
This is the HTML I'm using for my tabs:
<div class="MainContent">Content</div>
<div class="TabsHolder">
<div id="Tab1">
<div style="width:200px">
Content Tab 1
</div>
</div>
<a class="Button1" href="#Tab1"></a>
<div class="clearer"></div>
<div id="Tab2">
<div style="width:200px">
Content Tab 2
</div>
</div>
<a class="Button2" href="#Tab2"></a>
</div>
CSS:
.MainContent {
float: left;
}
.TabsHolder
{
float: left;
}
.Button1
{
float: left;
margin: 100px 0px 20px 0px;
background: url(images/Button1.png) no-repeat 0 0;
height: 79px;
width: 27px;
}
#Tab1
{
width: 200px;
margin: 80px 0px 20px 0px;
border: solid 1px #ACCD45;
position: relative;
float: left;
overflow: hidden;
padding: 20px;
}
.Button2
{
float: left;
margin: 0px 0px 20px 0px;
background: url(images/Button2.png) no-repeat 0 0;
height: 97px;
width: 27px;
}
#Tab2
{
width: 200px;
margin: 0px 0px 20px 0px;
border: solid 1px #ACCD45;
position: relative;
float: left;
overflow: hidden;
padding: 20px;
}
div.clearer
{
clear: both;
margin: 0px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
margin-top: 0px;
padding: 0px;
line-height: 0px;
height: 0px;
width: 0px;
overflow: hidden;
}
Here is what I put together using pure CSS - Tested in Firefox, IE8 and Chrome (not sure about others). Try out a demo here.
Note: I wanted to make a comment about one thing in your original HTML - you can't add a background image to a link <a> tag.
CSS
.MainContent {
float: left;
width: 400px;
height: 400px;
background: #444;
}
.buttons {
float: left;
margin: 10px 0 10px 0;
width: 27px;
clear: both;
}
.Button1 {
background: #555 url(images/Button1.png) no-repeat 0 0;
height: 79px;
}
.Button2 {
background: #555 url(images/Button2.png) no-repeat 0 0;
height: 97px;
}
.Button3 {
background: #555 url(images/Button3.png) no-repeat 0 0;
height: 127px;
}
.tabsHolder {
float: left;
position: relative;
}
.tabs {
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
margin: 0 0 20px 0;
border: solid 1px #ACCD45;
background: #444;
overflow: hidden;
padding: 20px;
display: none;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
}
#tab1 { top: 0; }
#tab2 { top: 98px; }
#tab3 { top: 215px; }
a:hover .tabs {display: block;}
HTML
<div class="MainContent">Content</div>
<div class="tabsHolder">
<a href="#tab1"><div class="buttons Button1">1</div>
<div id="tab1" class="tabs">
Content tab 1
</div>
</a>
<a href="#tab2"><div class="buttons Button2">2</div>
<div id="tab2" class="tabs">
Content tab 2
</div>
</a>
<a href="#tab3"><div class="buttons Button3">3</div>
<div id="tab3" class="tabs">
Content tab 3
</div>
</a>
</div>
</div>
You will need to define the pages (divs to hide/show) and tabs in two separate divs.
These will want to be floated next to each other, so you will have something like
<div class="pages">
<div class="page" id="tab1">....</div>
<div class="page" id="tab2">....</div>
</div>
<div class="tabs">
<div class="tab">Tab 1</div>
<div class="tab">Tab 2</div>
</div>
You can then set a min-height on pages (height for IE6, put into a conditional stylesheet), set pages and tabs to both float left, both with fixed widths.
Finally when you attach your event to $('#tab a'), make sure you iterate over all the pages hiding the non-relevant ones.
Without JavaScript, you cannot hide one of your divs, you can only have an HTML page per tab (like this or this).
If you want something more dynamic, you should use JavaScript. The tabs system is a built-in component of jQuery, for instance. (Homepage, live demo).
Hope that'll help you.
