I have been trying to create a 3 column layout with divs but I haven't found any way to do the following:
I haven't found any info on how to do this. Basically I want the divs to be able to be added in any order and have the margins the same.
The Twitter Bootstrap grid system is especially suited for this type of layout. If you want more specific help, please provide some code on what you've already tried.

I started off a month ago and I have trouble understanding the grid system on CSS.
I can to create some classes on my html to later edit on my CSS but it does not seem to work. I want to add some images so they cover that entire section of the page while other to appear small (images of products I am selling).
Any advice on where to learn this efficiently?
I found this reference super helpful when trying to implement a grid.
https://grid.malven.co/
On laying out some images on a grid, it helps me to remember that I can use a combination of different positioning techniques inside the grid boxes. I also found that this class on css for developers is super detailed and helpful.
I found this site that brings several examples of using the grid: https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/complete-guide-grid/
The "grid-template-areas" section seems to provide a solution for what you want, by referencing the names of the grid areas which are specified with the grid-area property. The syntax itself provides a visualization of the structure of the grid.
I want to start a blog design from scratch as a week-ends project, but I have problem to see how I can render it via CSS.
In a CSS grid system you can define the size of a column based on the number of elements e.g. I have 12 based grid and I can decide to have 2 columns: 2 of the size of 6 or one of 5 and one of 7.
[EDIT] I found a website example that does what I would like to achieve: http://www.by-form.net/
Thanks~
The thing about vertical sizing is that it should grow as your content grows, that's why grid systems only include rows with 12 columns, because you'll need your page to grow as the content in it does. As stated before (and I'm not sure if you meant pure CSS grid system when you asked or if you were referring to bootstraps grid system or something similar), you can use a lot of different frameworks to achieve this like Bootstrap or Materialize or even create one yourself (which is a great exercise if your objective is to understand how this works, but not so much if you want to be productive about your project).
Thank you for your answers guys,
I found 2 ways to answer that issue:
the masonry grid Javasript layout that handle very closely to the original idea of how I wanted to handle it.
or a nested grid (a grid within a grid), e.g. profoundgrid
I don't have much knowledge about this but using bootstrap css you can achive the grid system.

Your grid in the image is very complex.
I don't think you can achieve a layout like this without any rows or columns that is flexible enough.
What I mean by that is, that you surely want the boxes to grow when the content gets bigger. This could be a big problem cause there are so many dependencies to next and previous columns.
I wrote an answer to a similar question showing a variety of CSS Techniques to do layouts. Check it out, it might be helpful here.
Anyway, if you reduce some dependencies and know exactly what the order of the content should be and look like, it would be much easier.
So I have looked all over the web and thei site and can't quite figure it out.
I want to create a custom grid in Bootstrap. The container should be 5760px and have 36 columns with 20px gutters. I know this is ridiculously large. but what I am trying to do is essentially have 3 12 column grids (each 1920px wide) side by side.
I've tried the custom build for Bootstrap but I don't really understand the container / grid system I guess. Also I am using Sass as opposed to Less. So that presents another twist.
If I could just get the css and by pass all the Sass / Less stuff that would be great.
Ok so im going out on a limb here, but if you're working with bootstrap and you want to configure the basics so much.
What you can do is download a customized version of it.
Take a look here : Boostrap 3
Here you will be able to customize the amount of columns you wish to work with : Custom Grid Count
And you will also be able to select the container size. : Container Width
Along with all the features of bootstrap.. And all from bootstrap themselves.
Once you have all your fields filled in and edited to your spec, scroll to the bottom and 'compile' it!
As an answer goes its really the best i think I can offer!
I am working on a web site using Bootstrap 3 to design it. I have come across a situation where the the grid system is not working as expected.
I am trying to fit in the HTML5 logo in the last line where I have set the class to visible-xs-6 col-xs-offset-3. According to me, this should create three sections where the first section should be an offset of 3 columns which is showing up fine as you can see in the image, but after that I believe that the HTML5 logo should be somewhere in the middle section and another 3 column section after that. Isn't that logical? But for some reason the second section is taking up the whole row after the offset. What am i doing wrong?
I don't believe the visible-xs-* classes are used to set the number of columns, only the display:* property. The only options are block, inline and inline-block. So your classes should be...
class="col-xs-6 col-xs-offset-3 visible-xs-block"
I made a silly mistake. I forgot to wrap the columns in a <div class="row">. And moreover I used .hidden-sm .hidden-md and .hidden-lg classes just to be extra sure.
And plus I made another silly mistake of assuming that the * in visible-xs-* means the number of columns instead of the options given in responsive utilities.
If anyone has a similar problem please take a look at Bootstrap's responsive utilities
Anyway thank you anyone who tried to help. I will accept this as an answer to close the question.
I'm trying to create a three column layout in CSS only with fixed left and right columns and a fluid central column. I have searched online but nothing has worked when I implement it. I don't know whether this is particularly relevant but my central column is (or contains, I've tried both) an iframe. This seems to be contributing to the complication.
Have you tried using an 960 grid ?

Otherwise there are many examples for using fixed and fluid grid layouts in the web:

This is the one you are looking for.
Btw: Please provide some of your code, or do a jsfiddle about it !
