I built a small mobile website with AngularJS & Bootstrap. Please see http://www.quaaoutlodge.com/mobile/
Now I would like to move the text into the center of the <li list items but when I add a padding-bottom or margin-bottom to the #desc element, the text doesn't move up at all but the reserved space seems to just go across the <li border. Why is this? How do I change this so that I achieve above described effect?
Thank you!

I changed the <span style from id to class, added display: inline-block; and padding-bottom: 10px;and the padding gets applied right now but, how do I move the text up while the icon on the left stays so that they get aligned centred to each other?
First, you need to fix the problem of having non-unique id elements on the page! You should probably be using a class for #desc, instead of an id.
In regards to the padding on the #desc span, you need to set the display style to inline-block, and then you should be able to use padding to affect the space around it.

I have HTML like below and all is displaying grand, the problem is that due to a problem with Sharepoint 2013's editor your unable to edit the link text but as soon as I remove display: block I can edit the link text, the same happens using float.
My question is there a way to emulate the affect of display: block where it will span the whole width that is available to it without using display or float?
<div class="button">
Link Text
</div>
There is one option to make an inline element to be like a block by using position:absolute without using display or float.
But I hope absolute positioning doesn't fit your want. Thus, the final conclusion is that you must use display or float property to render it correctly.
If you even use absolute then don't forget to keep position:relative to your parent element from which you want to be the element as absolute.
You could try display: inline-block; width: 100%;. You might need to alter the width to take into account any padding or border you've set.
(In the past I've used an edit mode panel and other tricks, so these hacky styles only apply when the page is being edited.)
SharePoint 2013's editor is so utterly awesome isn't it? :-(
I know how to display an icon as such:
<span class='icon-remove'></span>
But If I add padding to the span, extra icon shows up. How to fix it?
span {
padding-right:60px;
}
fiddle
The glyphs are presented using one large image map (or so called CSS sprites), so if you leave enough space on in either side of the element it will show other glyphs as well. Two solutions comes to mind:
1) Put the icon in a containing element:
<span><i class='icon-remove'></i></span>
2) Or use margin:
span { margin-right: 60px }
I figure you just want to have some whitespace to the right of the icon? Have you tried margin:
<span class='icon-remove' style='margin-right:60px'></span>
The reason extra padding displays more icons is that Bootstrap uses CSS sprites to display icons. What you're actually seeing is a background image, more specifically a section of a large background image that includes many available icons. The definition of the class "icon-remove" specifies the background-position property to select the particular icon. If you add padding, you will reveal more of the background image, which will show additional icons.
The solution, then, is to either add margin, as Rid Iculous suggested, or couch your within another element and add padding to that. I'd go with the margin.
I'm trying to do something pretty simple: an <a> tag with a background image. The code is found here, http://jsfiddle.net/QWatA/
The problem is that for some reason I can't set the width of the <a> tag in this code. If I had just a normal background and set it with a width it works fine. However seems like if I do it this way I have no control over the width. Ideally I want all the links to have highlights of the same width.
The reason I'm doing this is that I want a different background image for each of the links, so I'm forced to define all those a.class1, a.class2 stuff.
Thanks!!
Add display:inline-block; to your 'a' elements. By default 'a' is display:inline and so does not establish box with width/height.

yea c-smile beat me to it just put display: block in your css, however if your going to do a.class1, a.class2 and so on with new pictures put it in your ul li a instead of in the a.class1 a.class2 and so on then you only have to write the code once.
I need help to align CSS buttons. I tried many different variations and I just cannot center my button the way I want.
Firstly, have a look at this url: http://www.front-end-developer.net/cssbuttons/example.htm
I'm using 2 images to form a button (this could be done on 1 image, but in this case we've got two). Everything works as expected as long as we apply float:left or float:right to the parent div element, to 'limit' width of the div and close it as soon as the content of the div ends. You can remove float:left from the button to see what I mean.
But what about center positioned buttons? I cannot add float:left/right because I want align it in the middle.
In theory, I could set
{
width:XXpx;
margin:0 auto;
}
And I will get what you can see on this picture:
(source: front-end-developer.net)
But I don't know the length of the text inside. Having different translations my button can be very short, or 5 times that long.
I also tried to use <span> instead of <div>, but unfortunately nested inline elements don't respect their padding correctly...
And yes, I must use <a> inside, so buttons can be accessed by web crawlers.
I'm really stuck on this one.
.button {display:inline-block;}
Seems to do the trick.

On the page above there is an image floated to the left. To the right of it is a list, titled "features". The list items have a background image, however, it isn't appearing. List 2 shows how the background image looks.
Does anyone know how I can make the bullets visible?
I know this is a year old post but others may want to know...
What happens if you are using a content management system and some pages have images & some don't you wouldn't want your list items to be 200px in the content?
You can add this CSS to your UL/OL element:
overflow:hidden;
I hope that helps.
Your image has a float:left property. The list items are therefore rendered "behind" the image.
margin-left:200px;
on the UL element will solve your problem.
Alternatively, you can apply a float:left on your UL-element. This will make it float right to the image, but will make the following content appear on the same line. You can prevent this by clearing the UL-element, or adding element after the UL-element with...
clear:both
...applied to it.
More information about this behaviour can be found at http://www.positioniseverything.net/easyclearing.html.
This thread is old indeed, but always relevant...
Another alternative solution:
display: inline-block;
Put this on the UL. It forces the entire ul to appear after the float. That way you can have a page with or without the image and it will always display correctly (checked on FF4, IE7 & 8, Chrome 11).
Alternatively, you could use the list-style-image property instead of background-image. I ran into this very problem the other day: the text-wrapping behaviour that floats exhibit on their 'neighbours' only applies to 'content', not background images (for example).
