I am trying to find a neat way to get my header to have a width of 100% (so I can use a background colour that spreads across the whole page), but also within it I have two images, that I'd like to stay inline and not overflow on each other or push each other down.
I currently have the follow CSS:
header {
width: 100%;
height: 150px;
padding: 50px 50px 10px 50px;
clear: both;
background: #185f96;}
#logo {
float: left;
width: 800px;}
#phone { float: left; width: 200px; }
Logo and phone are inside the header. If you look at it in action (removed) you can see if you size it down to a certain point, the phone info gets pushed under the banner. I can set it to a static width, but then this is an issue with different web sizes.
I created an extra div inside the header in which I just put the logo, and left the phone on the outside. This gives me the results I want, but I want wondering if there was a neater way of achieving this without the extra div.
(Also sorry for the formatting of the code section, I have trouble getting it to be neatly formatted. Doesn't seem to work properly)
Reduce your page with and use % unit in padding too as.
header {
width: 84%;
height: 150px;
padding: 5% 5% 1% 5%;
clear: both;
background: #185f96;}
#logo {
float: left;
width: 800px;}
Set width is percentage and then add white-space:nowrap; to header to prevent things from to a new line
header {
width: 100%;
height: 150px;
padding: 50px 50px 10px 50px;
clear: both;
background: #185f96;
white-space:nowrap; /*added*/
}
#logo {
float: left;
display:inline-block; /* or width in percentage */
}
#phone {
float: left;
min-width: 20%; /* ammended */
}

I am working on a navigation bar that has a right section with contents that will vary in width and then I want the left section to take the remainder of the space. I found display: inline-block; sets the element width based on it's content, but I cannot get the left section to take the remainder of the space.
I found another question that shows how to do what I want if the right section was the remainder (Set width to remainder of parent - dynamic width) and tried to figure out how to use that concept the other way round, but the right section ends up going onto a second line.
Ultimately I am trying to do this with polymer core-toolbars, but I cannot even get this to work with a very simple example.
html:
<div id="container">
<div id="left">main</div>
<div id="right">variable width content</div>
</div>
css (using linked example):
#container {
width: 100%;
height: 32px;
}
#left {
overflow: hidden;
height: 100%;
background-color: blue;
}
#right {
float: right;
max-width: 25%;
height: 100%;
background-color: grey;
}
css (using inline-block):
#container div{
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
height: 32px;
}
#left {
left: 0px;
background-color: blue;
}
#right {
right: 0px;
display: inline-block;
background-color: grey;
}

I am not tied to using either of these methods, this is just what I have been trying after reading several posts.
Jsfiddle to demonstrate my issue.
I have a SPA (Single Page Application).
In the appliation several dialogs can popup on the screen.
Every popup has it own width and height.
The title and content of the dialogs are added by angularJs
The problem i have here is the size of the dialog.
Currently all popups are made and added seperatly. I want to change this into one popup with variable content. The problem that comes with this is that the popup must wrap the contents width.
Example (as shown in the Jsfiddle)
<div class="dialog">
<div class="titlebar"></div>
<div class="content">
The content that is added has css that tells it has a width of 400px
This means the dialog needs to wrap to this 400px
</div>
</div>
How do i solve this by only using CSS?
Some examples of the variation of popups (although the width of both look the same, this is not the case)
Use display:table for the dialog.
Here is your Updated Fiddle.
For young browser you may use :
1) display:flex; property (includes centering) DEMO
.backdrop {
position: fixed;
top:0;
}
.backdrop {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
z-index: 100;
background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
}
.dialog {
margin:auto;
position:relative;
}
2) max-content as value for width and not set any width to inner
content . (exept some padding to keep room for the close button) :
DEMO
Info on W3C about those new keywords value, soon avalaible i hope.
CSS updated
.dialog {
width: max-content;
z-index: 101;
margin: auto;
/* basic way t o center */
top:50%;
left:50%;
margin:-80px -150px;
}
.titlebar {
height: 50px;
line-height: 50px;
background-color: #000000;
border-radius: 10px 10px 0px 0px;
}
.title{
color:#FFFFFF;
font-size: x-large;
padding:0 50px 0 10px;
}
.close_button {
position: absolute;
right: 0px;
top: 0px;
line-height:30px;
padding: 5px;
margin: 5px;
border-radius: 10px;
background-color: #ffd549;
color: #000000;
}
.content {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
.content-width {
background-color:#FFF000;
}
or as already said , use the display: table, inline-table
Using display: inline-block; text-align: center;
Works in ie >= 8.
Fiddle.
I don't understand the problem.
If you want to center the content-width div element, simply add margin: auto;.
If you want the container to fit the WIDTH of its content, you must change the display property from block to something else, like inline-block or table (as suggested by #jacelysh).
What is it exactly that you are trying to do?
A div without a set width will take up the width of the parent.
try this.
.content {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
min-width: 100%;
}
.content-width {
width: 100%;
background-color:#FFF000;
}

Checking again now. You can just remove the width from those two classes and it will work.
This is what you want I think.

Hello using a child theme, getting all the other elements working with the responsive design - just not the logo?
link to site
Using this code at the moment;
header#masthead hgroup .logo img {
vertical-align: bottom;
height: 80px;
width: 300px;
margin-left: 390px;
}
Many thanks
These two lines
display: block;
margin: 0 auto;
are a good place to start to center something.
Common reasons for that not to work is if the element is floating or has its position set to something besides static. In those cases you can try float: none;, or position: static; or position: relative;. In the case of relative be sure to also set the relevant top, bottom, left, and right properties.
There are a many cases where none of these things will help, but in your case and in most simple cases, the above will get you there.
Try this for your CSS
header#masthead hgroup .logo {
display: block;
float: left;
max-width: 100%;
position: relative;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -150px;
}
header#masthead hgroup .logo img {
vertical-align: bottom;
height: 80px;
width: 300px;
}
No need for big margin-left. the code on the .logo div moves the logo 50% across the screen, to center it completely, you then have to remove half the width with a margin-left: -150px.
I tried the code out on your website so it should work. Hope it makes sense.
I want to make a div (my sidebar) stretch to the bottom of the page. I know that I need to add "height: 100%;" in order to do that.
But when I add height: 100%;, pages that have less content than the sidebar cuts the sidebar's height and then you can't see the sidebar content.
This is the index page . Everything looks exactly the way I want it to.
This is a sample page . Notice that the sidebar has been cut.
CSS:
#menu-container {
background-image: url('floral.png');
width: 300px;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: top;
height: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
position: absolute;
}
#menu {
background-image: url('menubg.png');
width: 220px;
margin: 0;
padding-top: 50px;
padding-left: 30px;
padding-right: 20px;
color: #e8e8e8;
height: 100%;
}
#content {
padding: 0px 0px 30px 325px;
width: 1000px;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: top;
}
Thanks in advance!

The changed CSS fixed my second problem but now I'm back to the cut off sidebar on shorter pages: See here: http://www.tarawilder.com/staging/?page_id=19
I'm leaving my house now, I'll be able to respond later tonight. Thanks again for your help!
#container {
display: inline-block;
height: 100%;
position: absolute;
width: 900px;
}
try this..it will give you the result you want..though there are many other mistakes in your html markup
some other areas where you need to be careful...
your container's width is 900px..which contains side menu and the large text...combined width of your side menu and the large text is far greater than your 900px width of your container..as you are not using overflow:hidden; you cant see the effect...why dont you apply overflow:auto; width:100% or something like that
BETTER CSS::
#container {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
overflow: auto;
position: absolute;
}
ACCORDING TO YOUR NEW PROBLEM :: now your body height must be more than 100% now..thats why after 100% height your side menu becomes invisible
CHANGED CSS ::
#container {
height: auto;
overflow: hidden;
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
}
your third problem ::
strange...you are now using width:100% for your cantainer..and your container contains side menu and large text...and side menu has width of 300px and then your having width of 1000px for large text..so naturally the overflowed part ot the text gets invisible; and also remove position:absolute; from container
now your css
#container {
height: auto;
overflow: hidden;
width: 100%;
}
#content {
padding: 0px 0px 30px 325px;
vertical-align: top;
}
NOTE:: don't delete your edited part of your question..you have already deleted the 2nd edit you made to your question earlier...it will create difficulties for future users to relate the answer with question
Make sure that your parent containers (#container, body, html) are height:100%; as well.
Personally, I would do something like this(if the rest of the site layout allows it):
Instead of creating separate backgrounds for #menu, #menu-caontainer and body i would create background on body something like this: http://cl.ly/image/3L060f2w3Z0s
that would repeat vertically on y axis, so no matter how high the body is the background would stretch/repeat to the bottom.
I know I should know how to do this, but for all of my searching on SO and the internet, it's evading me. A friend wants a page with a fixed width centered wrapper, 990px wide. Left and right will have no content, but he wants the header and footer to stretch off the ends of the page like a liquid layout. I never build sites like this so I'm stuck, I only do fixed width centered wrappers.
I want to accomplish this with CSS over tables, that's his preference.
The header isn't straight black, it's a thin .png that is repeated as a BG image.
The footer is a solid BG color.
Page is currently set up with the proper header and footer contained in the center wrapper but nothing is stretching off to the left and right.

If I'm omitting anything that would be helpful, please let me know.
You could try putting the #wrapperTop and #footer ids outside of the fixed width center wrapper and set their width to 100%.
Try this
#wrapperTop{
width: 100%;
height: 162px;
margin: 0;
}
#navbar {
height: 40px;
width: 990px;
margin: auto;
background-image: url(../graphics/bg_top.png);
}
#header {
height: 120px;
width: 990px;
margin: auto;
}
#imageSlice {
width: 990px;
height: 95px;
background-color: white;
margin: auto;
}
#footer {
width: 100%;
height: 145px;
margin: 0;
background-image: url(../graphics/bg_bottom.png);
}
#navBox {
width: 600px;
height: 75px;
margin: auto;
}
