I have 5 images that I want to put next to each other, these images is going to become a slider that's going to slide left or right. No matter what I try nothing seems to make it go next to each other. I have tried float:left, position:absolute, display: inline.
here is my html
<div class="slider-wrapper">
<div class="slider">
<div class="portfolio-overlay">
<div id="portfolio_0" class="portfolio-active portfolio-single"><img src="images/image1.jpg"></div>
<div id="portfolio_1" class="portfolio-inactive portfolio-single"><img src="images/image2.jpg"></div>
<div id="portfolio_2" class="portfolio-inactive portfolio-single"><img src="images/image3.jpg"></div>
<div id="portfolio_3" class="portfolio-inactive portfolio-single"><img src="images/image4.jpg"></div>
<div id="portfolio_4" class="portfolio-inactive portfolio-single"><img src="images/image5.jpg"></div>
<div id="portfolio_5" class="portfolio-inactive portfolio-single"><img src="images/image6.jpg"></div>
</div>
</div>
and this is my css
.slider-wrapper {
padding: 25px 0 0;
}
.portfolio-single {
float: left;
width: 70%;
}
DEMO WITH ANIMATION
DEMO
.slider-wrapper {
overflow:hidden; /* to remove page scrollbars */
padding: 25px 0 0;
white-space:nowrap;
font-size:0; /* to remove ~4px whitespace */
}
.portfolio-single {
/*reset fontsize if needed*/
display:inline-block;
width:70%;
}
.portfolio-single img{
vertical-align:top;
width:100%;
}
Without using align-left we can use on a parent element white-space as nowrap, this will make sure to prevent wrap on inner inline or inline-block elements.
As said above we than need to respectively set the slides to inline-block.
using inline-block on elements they'll be in an inline flow, which means that if in your HTML you have every slide in a new line, a 4px (it's a whitespace!) gap will appear next to each slide.
to remove it use on the parent element font-size:0;
If you plan to have text inside your slides than you'll need to set font-size:16px back to your children slides.
vertical-align:top or any other align value makes sure to place your images at the right vertical place inside their parent containers.
It's because you gave each image a width of 70%. So each image was taking up a new line.
If you have 5 images, then the max width to have them all on the same line would be 20%. But with any padding/border/margin will add to that, so you might need to put under 20%.
http://jsfiddle.net/rNa9v/1/
.portfolio-single {
float: left;
width: 10%; /* changed to 10% instead of 70% */
}
Your img are in divs so they each take the full width of the page.
You can change this behavior by making the divs "inline":
.portfolio-single {display: inline-block;}
http://jsfiddle.net/9377D/2/
.portfolio-single {
float: left;
width: 16%; /* 100/6 */
}
You can calculate it ;-)
Here you can change the div option.It could solve the problem.

OK, so here is my problem,
I need to have four DIVs in one line. The First three are float:left and the fourth one is float:right. The container has a specified width.
I need the third div to fill all the space from the second div that is floated to the left, to the fourth div that is floated right.
EDIT: DIVs #1, #2 and #4 have dynamic width as well... They have a certain padding and the content defines the width.
Why not turn the question on its head, and establish how to create the layout you want- in which case, likely the simplest approach would be:
Demo Fiddle
HTML
<div class='table'>
<div class='cell'>fit</div>
<div class='cell'>fit</div>
<div class='cell'>expand</div>
<div class='cell'>fit</div>
</div>
CSS
.table {
display:table;
width:100%; /* <-- will make the divs align across the full browser width */
height:50px;
}
.cell {
display:table-cell;
border:1px solid red;
width:1%; /* <-- will make 1, 2, 4 only fit their content */
}
.cell:nth-child(3) {
width:100%; /* <-- will make 3 expand to the remaining space */
}
Solution Using Floated Elements
Here is one way of doing this using floats.
Arrange your HTML as follows:
<div class="panel-container">
<div class="panel p1">Panel 1 - and a word</div>
<div class="panel p2">Panel 2 - Done. </div>
<div class="panel p4">Panel 4 - End!</div>
<div class="panel p3">Panel 3</div>
</div>
and apply the following CSS:
.panel-container {
width: 600px;
border: 1px dotted blue;
overflow: auto;
}
.panel {
background-color: lightgray;
padding: 5px;
}
.p1 {
float: left;
}
.p2 {
float: left;
}
.p3 {
background-color: tan;
overflow: auto;
}
.p4 {
float: right;
}
The trick is to place the floated elements (.p1, .p2. .p4) ahead of the in-flow content (.p3).
Use overflow: auto on the parent container to keep the floated child elements from affecting the layout outside of the parent element.
I added overflow: auto on .p3 so that the padding gets included within the containing block.
See fiddle at: http://jsfiddle.net/audetwebdesign/9G8rT/
Comments
The one disadvantage of this approach is that the order of the content is altered, that is, .p3 appears after .p4 in the code order.
Another side effect, which may be desirable in a responsive design, is that the child elements will wrap onto 2 or more lines as the parent container width gets smaller.
If you need to retain the content order in the HTML code, the CSS table-cell solution is a good alterantive.
The table-cell solution will keep the child elements on a single line regardless of the width of the parent container.
One final advangtage of the floated element solution is that it is more backward compatible than a CSS table-cell solution, but as we move forward, this is becoming less
of a compelling argument.
I have a fixed-width left div, and I want to make the right div fill the remaining space.
So far I've been taking this approach recommended by another SO poster, but it doesn't work if I have content inside the right div.
The content in the right div is set to width: 100%, so I would expect it to be no wider than the right-hand div, but it overflows the right div.
<div>
<div id="left">left</div>
<div id="right">right<div id="insideright">overflows</div</div>
</div>
<style>
#left {
float:left;
width:180px;
background-color:#ff0000;
}
#right {
width: 100%;
background-color:#00FF00;
}
#insideright {
width: 100%;
background-color: blue;
height: 5px;
}
</style>
JSFiddle here, demoing the problem: http://jsfiddle.net/MHeqG/155/
What can I do?
I want to support older IE browsers, so I'd rather not use display: table-cell etc if I can avoid it, or at least not without a reasonable fallback.
Actually it's pretty simple... don't add 100% to the right div :)
just add the overflow property
LIVE DEMO
#left {
float:left;
width:180px;
background-color:#ff0000;
}
#right {
overflow:auto;
background-color:#00FF00;
}
#insideright {
background-color: blue;
}
...and if you even wondered how to make the red (left) div fill the remaining height...
DEMO
Not sure exactly what you're trying to do (your references to right are ambiguous). But if I'm understanding, you want the insideright to be nested within the right without overflowing?
Why not use a <span> instead? <div> out of the box is display: block; which will force a wrap like that. Alternatively, override this behavior by using display: inline; or display: inline-block;.
<div>
<div id="left">
left
</div>
<div id="right">
right
<span id="insideright">this should not overflow right</span>
</div>
</div>

How can I position the main content div in the middle without it collapsing to the left, when left sidebar is shorter than the content? Is that possible? I don't want to use a fixed height for the navigation, but can I somehow say "sidebarleft height = content height", or is there an easier way?
Thanks!
Actually you are floating only elements to the left without any wrapper element, so what happens is this..
Instead, wrap the other 2 elements inside a wrapper element and than float it to the left
.left_wrap {
float: left;
width: 30%;
}
.right_wrap {
float: left;
width: 70%;
}
.right_wrap > div {
border: 3px solid #ff0;
height: 100px;
}
<div class="main">
<div class="left_wrap">
Hello
</div>
<div class="right_wrap">
World
<div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
</div>
Demo
Better Demo
If you want even a better one, I would suggest you to wrap the boxes inside the parent containers, and instead of floating the child elements, float the parent.
Demo
Also, don't forget to clear your floated elements, just make sure you clear them, you can use a self clearing parent CSS like
.clear:after {
content: "";
clear: both;
display: table;
}
And call the above class on the element containing floated elements as their children, where in this case, it's <div class="main"> so it should be now
<div class="main clear">
<!-- Floated Elements -->
</div>
I'm not quite sure if this is what you mean but try:
#node-29{
float: right;
clear: left;
margin-left: 0;
}
This will position the div's next to each other and keep the main content to the right.
This can be quite complex depending on your existing theme.
I wrote this page a while back to shows you how you can do that.
http://linux.m2osw.com/3columns
More or less you need a first div that encompasses the left column and the content. That div is the one that gets centered.
To make it simpler you can set a specific width to the div and you get something like this:
div.page
{
width: 900px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
That will center the main div.
For the column and the content, both are float: left; div's. In order to "close" the lot, you want another div just before closing the main div. That one has a style that ensures that the main div has the correct size: clear: both;.
we can use margins to set the div position .we can either specify fixed margins or we can give percentage value ,so that it will based on the total size of the screen.

I have a div which wraps a number of images that are generated dynamically. I don't know how high the list of images is. My problem is the div that contains the dynamically generated images doesn't behave like it is housing any content - I want it to extend to the height of the list of images. Each image is itself wrapped in a div.
This is the wrapper div:
.block { padding:10px; margin-top:10px; height:auto; background-color:#f9f9f9; }
This is the markup dynamically generated for (one of) the images:
<div class="block">
<div style="float: left; padding: 2px 2px 2px 2px;"><IMG SRC="45.jpg" BORDER="0"/></div>
.....
How do I get the block div to extend down with the images?
Thanks
The problem you're observing happens when you float an element, which takes it out of the normal flow of the elements (by normal flow I mean the way the elements would appear with no styling). When you float an element, the other elements still in the normal flow will simply ignore it and do not make room for it, which is why your block div does not extend the full height of your image.
There are a few different solutions:
1) Add the rule overflow: hidden; to the block class:
.block { overflow: hidden; padding:10px; margin-top:10px; height:auto; background-color:#f9f9f9; }
2) Add a element after your image that clears the floating:
<div class="block">
<div style="float: left; padding: 2px 2px 2px 2px;"><IMG SRC="images/login1.png" BORDER="0"/></div>
<div style="clear: both;"></div>
</div>
Both will work, but I prefer the first solution.
REMOVE float:left from Image style and height:Auto from block style
ADD display:inline-block; in block style (container style)
I had the same problem. I got the wrapper element to wrap the content by setting the wrapper element's display to "table". So for your situation try
.block {padding:10px; margin-top:10px; height:auto; background- color:#f9f9f9; display: table;}
Add this in your CSS file:
.group:after { content: "."; display: block; height: 0; clear: both; visibility: hidden; } .group {display: inline-block;}
/* Hides from IE-mac \*/ * html .group {height: 1%;} .group {display: block;} /* End hide from IE-mac */
And add the "group" class to your block div so the float is cleared:
<div class="block group">
...
Add the following code in your css:
.block::after{
content : '';
clear : both;
display : block;
}
It will solve your problem.
It just inserts a blank "after" the block class.
I have a div tag that expands (horizontally and vertically) depending what I have in it. I have:
<div id="summary" style="float:right;margin:5px 5px 0;" ALIGN="right">
I also put a table within it to hold all my information:
<table style="margin-left:1em; border:2px solid #000000; background-color:#f2f2f2; padding:1px; float:center; clear:right; font-size:85%;">
Can you force a container DIV height to accomodate two floated div children? Is there a fancy trick I can use to do that? I am trying to make two equally sized divs inside the parent div. I would like them to appear side by side with a little whitespace between them. Child2 tends to pop out and go below Child1. Note Child2 contains a table. Should I be floating?
HTML:
<div id="parent">
<div id="child1"></div>
<div id="child2">
<table><tr><td>content</td></tr></table>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
div#parent
{
background-color: #C6E4E0;
border: solid 3px #017E6F;
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 10pt;
font-weight: bold;
padding-left: 5px;
padding-right: 5px;
width:99%;
}
div#parent div
{
width:49%;
float:right;
padding:3px;
}
div#parent div:first-child
{
float:left;
}
This is not a clearfix issue guys, his problem is that his two floated divs are not appearing side by side.
First of all, you do not need to set the width of the parent div, divs are block elements which means they automatically adjust their width to take up the full width of their parent (in this case, presumably the parent of div#parent is the body).
Because you are setting the width explicitly AND giving it padding, it can potentially extend BEYOND the body. That doesn't really matter, but if you apply this same knowledge to the child floated divs and you can see why the right one might get bumped down to the bottom.
First, if you are explicitly setting the widths of the divs to a percentage, you do not need to add padding. Because you are dealing with percentage widths, it is better to add padding to the content of the divs rather than the divs themselves, because padding is ADDED to the width. Therefore, if you added 10px padding to a div that had a 49% width in a 100px parent, it would have a width of 49px + 10px + 10px (2 sides) for a total calculated width of 69px.
Since you didn't post your markup and content or which browser you are testing in, I can't say exactly why the div is being bumped down. There are two likely possibilities.
You are using IE, which allows tables to extend beyond its parent div which will cause breakage. Try explicitly setting the table width to a percentage of its parent or something like that.
The 49% width + padding = greater than [parent-width] - [left-div-width]. This will cause it to get bumped down because the left div and right div are too wide for the parent width.
I use the clearfix class.
.clearfix:after {
content: ".";
display: block;
height: 0;
clear: both;
visibility: hidden;
}
.clearfix {
display: inline-block;
}
/* Hides from IE-mac \*/
/** html .clearfix {height: 1%;}*/
.clearfix {
display: block;
}
/* End hide from IE-mac */
then just use the class in every floated-element container.
#container { width:200px; }
.floated { width:100px; float:left; }
.clear { clear:both; }
<div id="container">
<div class="floated">A</div>
<div class="floated">B</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
I am not a fan of clear: both;, I rather do this in Jonathan Sampsons example:
#container { width:200px; overflow: hidden; }
.floated { width:100px; float:left; }
<div id="container">
<div class="floated">A</div>
<div class="floated">B</div>
</div>
By the way, you want
div#parent > div { float:left; }
instead of
div#parent div:first-child { float:left; }
which is still not IE6 friendly, but it will float both child DIVs.
