I'm trying to create a partial view for my home work and I have approximately done that, but there is one issue that is annoying me: Overflow-Y is not working in any case. I tried to set the height of my DIV tag in % and also in PX but in both cases it doesn't work.
I want to add the scroll option when content overflows the height of the nested DIV tag.
<div id="MainDIV" style="height:100%;width:100%;">
<div id="Header" style="width:100%;height:30px;text-align:center;background-color:#0094ff;padding:20px 0;font-size:25px">Welcome To my web site</div>
<div id="SideMenu" style="width:20%;background-color:#4cfbf6;display:table-cell;overflow-y:auto">Side Menu</div>
<div id="Content" style="width:80%;height:70%;background-color:orange;display:table-cell;padding:5px 10px;font-size:18px;overflow-y:auto">#RenderBody()</div>
<div id="Footer" style="width:100%;height:20px;background-color:#4cff00;text-align:center; padding:5px 0 ">Copyright © Someone Who developed it</div>
</div>
But this is not working at all, I even tried to set the height in PX. The height of DIV increase as content is added to the body.
table-cell don't seems to support overflow, so you need to add a child and set its height ( and set its overflow-y ).
<div id="MainDIV" style="height:100%;width:100%;">
<div id="Header" style="width:100%;height:30px;text-align:center;background-color:#0094ff;padding:20px 0;font-size:25px">Welcome To my web site</div>
<div id="SideMenu" style="width:20%;background-color:#4cfbf6;display:table-cell;overflow-y:auto">Side Menu</div>
<div id="Content" style="width:80%;background-color:orange;display:table-cell;padding:5px 10px;font-size:18px;">
<div style="height:200px;overflow-y:auto;">#RenderBody() -> "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
<br>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
<br>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
<br>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
<br>xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
<br>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
<br>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
<br>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
<br>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
<br>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
<br>xxxxxxxxx"</div>
</div>
<div id="Footer" style="width:100%;height:20px;background-color:#4cff00;text-align:center; padding:5px 0 ">Copyright © Someone Who developed it</div>
</div>
How can I solve this problem?
When you add borders to a div, the div is not centered and
the span12 class is not centered.
I would like to center the div with the borders
<div class="row" >
<div class="span12" style="border: 2px solid black">
<div class="row">
<div class="span4">
1
</div>
<div class="span4">
2
</div>
<div class="span4">
3
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Unfortunately, that's what borders do, they're counted as part of the space an element takes up. Allow me to introduce border's less commonly known cousin: outline. It is virtually identical to border. Only difference is that it behaves more like box-shadow in that it doesn't take up space in your layout and it has to be on all 4 sides of the element.
http://codepen.io/cimmanon/pen/wyktr
.foo {
outline: 1px solid orange;
}
As of Bootstrap 3, you can use Panel classes:
<div class="panel panel-default">Surrounded by border</div>
In Bootstrap 4, you can use Border classes:
<div class="border border-secondary">Surrounded by border</div>
There's a property in CSS called box-sizing. It determines the total width of an element on your page. The default value is content-box, which doesn't include the padding, margin, or border of the element.
Hence, if you set a div to have width: 500px and 20px padding all around, it will take up 540px on your website (500 + 20 + 20).
This is what is causing your problem. Bootstrap calculates set widths for things just like the above example, and these things don't have borders. Since Bootstrap fits together like a puzzle, adding a border to one of the sides would yield a total width of 501px (continuing the above example) and break your layout.
The easiest way to fix this is to adjust your box-sizing. The value you would use is box-sizing: border-box. This includes the padding and border in your box elements. You can read more about box-sizing here.
A problem with this solution is that it only works on IE8+. Consequently, if you need deeper IE support you'll need to override the Bootstrap widths to account for your border.
To give an example of how to calculate a new width, begin by checking the width that Bootstrap sets on your element. Let's say it's a span6 and has a width of 320px (this is purely hypothetical, the actual width of your span6 will depend on your specific configuration of Bootstrap). If you wanted to add a single border on the right hand side with a 20px padding over there, you'd write this CSS in your stylesheet
.span6 {
padding-right: 20px;
border-right: 1px solid #ddd;
width: 299px;
}
where the new width is calculated by:
old width - padding - border
Depending what size you want your div to be, you could utilize Bootstrap's built-in component thumbnail class, along with (or without) the grid system to create borders around each of your div items.
These examples on Bootstrap's website demonstrates the ease-of-use and lack of need for any special additional CSS:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-6 col-md-3">
<a href="#" class="thumbnail">
<img src="..." alt="...">
</a>
</div>
...
</div>
which produces the following div grid items:
or add some additional content:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-6 col-md-4">
<div class="thumbnail">
<img src="..." alt="...">
<div class="caption">
<h3>Thumbnail label</h3>
<p>...</p>
<p>
Button
Button
</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
which produces the following div grid items:
What others have mentioned about border vs border box is definitely correct. You can still get this to work without having to create any custom classes though: http://jsfiddle.net/panchroma/yfzdD/
HTML
<div class="container">
<div class="row" >
<div class="span12">
<div class="row">
<div class="span4"> 1 </div>
<div class="span4"> 2 </div>
<div class="span4"> 3 </div>
</div><!-- end nested row -->
</div><!-- end span 12 -->
</div> <!-- end row -->
</div><!-- end container -->
CSS
.span12{
border:solid 2px black;
background-color:grey;
}
Good luck!
While it's probably not the correct way to do it, something that I've found to be a simple workaround is to simply use a box-shadow rather than a border... This doesn't break the grid system. For example, in your case:
HTML
<div class="container">
<div class="row" >
<div class="span12">
<div class="row">
<div class="span4">
1
</div>
<div class="span4">
2
</div>
<div class="span4">
3
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS
.span12{
-moz-box-shadow: 0 0 2px black;
-webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 2px black;
box-shadow: 0 0 2px black;
}
Fiddle
You can't just add a border to the span because it will break the layout because of the way width is calculate: width = border + padding + width. Since the container is 940px and the span is 940px, adding 2px border (so 4px altogether) will make it look off centered. The work around is to change the width to include the 4px border (original - 4px) or have another div inside that creates the 2px border.
If you need a basic border around you just need to use bootstrap wells.
For example the code below:
<div class="well">Basic Well</div>
If you are using Bootstrap 4 and higher try this to put borders around your empty divs use border border-primary here is an example of my code:
<div class="row border border-primary">
<div class="col border border-primary">logo</div>
<div class="col border border-primary">navbar</div>
</div>
Here is the link to the border utility in Bootstrap 4:
https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.2/utilities/borders/
I have this html code
<section id="sec" style="height:auto">
<div id="wrap">
<div id="con">
<h1>....</h1>
<div id="col1">
<p>... long texts ...</p>
</div>
<div id="col2">
<p>... long texts ...</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</section>
<div id="buttom" style="border-top: 1px solid rgb(153, 153, 153)">
<p>...text here ... </p>
</div>
my problem now is that the height:auto of section#sec did not work in many divs inside of it...
is there any way that wihout removing any divs, the height auto will be work?
height is not a property inherited from parent elements. If you want the divs inside section#sec to inherit this property, you need to make a selector for it in CSS (or set inline styles on each one manually).
section#sec div
{
height:auto;
}
But since height:auto is already the default, you may be looking for something else entirely.
Hello I'm trying to create a navigation bar which is made up of several div containers in one big navigation div.
I'm not sure if my approach is right but I tried to do it like this:
<div id="navigation">
<div class="innen">
<div class="logo">
<img class= "logo" src="logo.png" title="Logo"/>
</div>
<div id="bar">
<!-- Navigation Items are in here --!>
</div>
<div id="gamecard">
<!-- Another right floated Element !-->
</div>
</div>
<div class="unten">
<p>You are here: Main</p>
</div>
</div>
I wanted to push down the bar div to meet the height of the image by using top padding:
#bar{
padding-top: 80px;
}
But now it moves the down gamecard container too. How can I prevent this from happening?
I also added a jfiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/Cv4p2/
try using position:absolute
<div id="bar" style="position:absolute; padding: 80px 0 0 0">
</div>
Padding is intended to add a cushion inside the container in which you implement it. It appears that you would benefit from using margin. You should replace "padding-top: 80px;" with "margin-top: 80px;" and you would achieve the desired effect.
I want to create alternating 100% colored blocks. An "ideal" situation is illustrated as an attachment, as well as the current situation.
Desired setup:
Currently:
My first idea was to create an div class, give it a background color, and give it 100% width.
.block {
width: 100%;
background: #fff;
}
However, you can see that this obviously doesn't work. It's confined to a container area. I tried to close the container and that didn't work either.
The container class is intentionally not 100% width. It is different fixed widths depending on the width of the viewport.
If you want to work with the full width of the screen, use .container-fluid:
Bootstrap 3:
<body>
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-6"></div>
<div class="col-lg-6"></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-8"></div>
<div class="col-lg-4"></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-12"></div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
Bootstrap 2:
<body>
<div class="row">
<div class="span6"></div>
<div class="span6"></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="span8"></div>
<div class="span4"></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="span12"></div>
</div>
</body>
QUICK ANSWER
Use multiple NOT NESTED .containers
Wrap those .containers you want to have a full-width background in a div
Add a CSS background to the wrapping div
Fiddles: Simple: https://jsfiddle.net/vLhc35k4/ , Container borders: https://jsfiddle.net/vLhc35k4/1/
HTML:
<div class="container">
<h2>Section 1</h2>
</div>
<div class="specialBackground">
<div class="container">
<h2>Section 2</h2>
</div>
</div>
CSS: .specialBackground{ background-color: gold; /*replace with own background settings*/ }
FURTHER INFO
DON'T USE NESTED CONTAINERS
Many people will (wrongly) suggest, that you should use nested containers. Well, you should NOT.
They are not ment to be nested. (See to "Containers" section in the docs)
HOW IT WORKS
div is a block element, which by default spans to the full width of a document body - there is the full-width feature. It also has a height of it's content (if you don't specify otherwise).
The bootstrap containers are not required to be direct children of a body, they are just containers with some padding and possibly some screen-width-variable fixed widths.
If a basic grid .container has some fixed width it is also auto-centered horizontally.
So there is no difference whether you put it as a:
Direct child of a body
Direct child of a basic div that is a direct child of a body.
By "basic" div I mean div that does not have a CSS altering his border, padding, dimensions, position or content size. Really just a HTML element with display: block; CSS and possibly background.
But of course setting vertical-like CSS (height, padding-top, ...) should not break the bootstrap grid :-)
Bootstrap itself is using the same approach
...All over it's own website and in it's "JUMBOTRON" example:
http://getbootstrap.com/examples/jumbotron/
This is how you can achieve your desired setup with Bootstrap 3:
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row"> <!-- Give this div your desired background color -->
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
... your content here ...
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The container-fluid part makes sure that you can change the background over the full width. The container part makes sure that your content is still wrapped in a fixed width.
This approach works, but personally I don't like all the nesting. However, I haven't found a better solution so far.
There is a workaround using vw. Is useful when you can't create a new fluid container.
This, inside a classic 'container' div will be full size.
.row-full{
width: 100vw;
position: relative;
margin-left: -50vw;
left: 50%;
}
After this there is the sidebar problem (thanks to #Typhlosaurus), solved with this js function, calling it on document load and resize:
function full_row_resize(){
var body_width = $('body').width();
$('.row-full').css('width', (body_width));
$('.row-full').css('margin-left', ('-'+(body_width/2)+'px'));
return false;
}
In bootstrap 4, you can use 'w-100' class (w as width, and 100 as 100%)
You can find documentation here:
https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/utilities/sizing/
If you can't change the HTML layout:
.full-width {
width: 100vw;
margin-left: -50vw;
left: 50%;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12">a</div>
<div class="col-xs-12">b</div>
<div class="col-xs-12 full-width">c</div>
<div class="col-xs-12">d</div>
</div>
</div>
Demo: http://www.bootply.com/tVkNyWJxA6
Sometimes it's not possible to close the content container.
The solution we are using is a bit different but prevent a overflow because of the
firefox scrollbar size!
.full-width {
margin-top: 15px;
margin-bottom: 15px;
position: relative;
width: calc(100vw - 10px);
margin-left: calc(-50vw + 5px);
left: 50%;
}
Here is a example: https://jsfiddle.net/RubbelDeKatz/wvt9253q
Instead of
style="width:100%"
try using
class="col-xs-12"
it will save you 1 character :)
Sorry, should have asked for your css as well. As is, basically what you need to look at is giving your container div the style .container { width: 100%; } in your css and then the enclosed divs will inherit this as long as you don't give them their own width. You were also missing a few closing tags, and the </center> closes a <center> without it ever being open, at least in this section of code. I wasn't sure if you wanted the image in the same div that contains your content or separate, so I created two examples. I changed the width of the img to 100px simply because jsfiddle offers a small viewing area. Let me know if it's not what you're looking for.
content and image separate: http://jsfiddle.net/QvqKS/2/
content and image in same div (img floated left): http://jsfiddle.net/QvqKS/3/
I would use two separate 'container' div as below:
<div class="container">
/* normal*/
</div>
<div class="container-fluid">
/*full width container*/
</div>
Bare in mind that container-fluid does not follow your breakpoints and it is a full width container.
I'd wonder why someone would try to "override" the container width, since its purpose is to keep its content with some padding, but I had a similar situation (that's why I wanted to share my solution, even though there're answers).
In my situation, I wanted to have all content (of all pages) rendered inside a container, so this was the piece of code from my _Layout.cshtml:
<div id="body">
#RenderSection("featured", required: false)
<section class="content-wrapper main-content clear-fix">
<div class="container">
#RenderBody()
</div>
</section>
</div>
In my Home Index page, I had a background header image I'd like to fill the whole screen width, so the solution was to make the Index.cshtml like this:
#section featured {
<!-- This content will be rendered outside the "container div" -->
<div class="intro-header">
<div class="container">SOME CONTENT WITH A NICE BACKGROUND</div>
</div>
}
<!-- The content below will be rendered INSIDE the "container div" -->
<div class="content-section-b">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
MORE CONTENT
</div>
</div>
</div>
I think this is better than trying to make workarounds, since sections are made with the purpose of allowing (or forcing) views to dynamically replace some content in the layout.
Though people have mentioned that you will need to use .container-fluid in this case but you will also have to remove the padding from bootstrap.
The following answer is not exactly optimal by any measure, but I needed something that maintains its position within the container whilst it stretches the inner div fully.
https://jsfiddle.net/fah5axm5/
$(function() {
$(window).on('load resize', ppaFullWidth);
function ppaFullWidth() {
var $elements = $('[data-ppa-full-width="true"]');
$.each( $elements, function( key, item ) {
var $el = $(this);
var $container = $el.closest('.container');
var margin = parseInt($container.css('margin-left'), 10);
var padding = parseInt($container.css('padding-left'), 10)
var offset = margin + padding;
$el.css({
position: "relative",
left: -offset,
"box-sizing": "border-box",
width: $(window).width(),
"padding-left": offset + "px",
"padding-right": offset + "px"
});
});
}
});
This must work (Mobile phone as well as Desktop screen):
class: alignfull and class: img-fluid will do the magic.
<div class="alignfull">
<img class="img-fluid" style="background-size: cover;
background-position: center ;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
height: auto;
min-width: 100%;
width: -moz-available; "
src="{{ $image->image }}" alt="An image">
</div>
