I have a div that is centered using margin: 0 auto; display: table;. The div is 960px wide.
There is another div inside this one. It is a search box and it is left-aligned in the top corner. But I would like this div to be left-aligned to the very left side of the browser window, meaning it would be visually outside or inside the main centered div depending on the browser window size. Is there a way to achieve this in CSS?
here a fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/skunheal/5qT3p/
this would be the code:
#container{
margin: 0 auto;
display: table;
width:400px;
height:300px;
background:#111;
}
#searchbox{
position:absolute;
height:20px;
width:100px;
background:#f1f1f1;
left:0px;
top:0px;
}
hope this solves your problem
Just use position:absolute; left:0px; on the search box. See my jsfiddl (the container ID has shrunk so that it could fit in the JsFiddle window, but the concept should be sound): http://jsfiddle.net/CQ9cc/.

I'm trying to place a button on bottom right corner of a div which is scrollable.
Since it is a content editable div, when content in the div increases, scollbar appears and button gets hidden behind the scrollbar on IE.
How to fix this issue?
I made an example for you.
Wrap all in a container, and position the bottom in the wrapper
main{
width:500px;
height:300px;
position:relative;
}
div{
background:#fff;
width:500px;
height:300px;
overflow-y:auto;
padding:10px 20px
}
button{
position:absolute;
bottom:0;
right:0;
}

I'm having trouble to to style my layout like I want it to. I have a content area #content (the grey you can see in the example image) with a yellow element inside. This div is position:static;height:100%;. Now I have a #left-panel div also, with position:fixed;height:100%;. The problem is, if the content area has not enough space a horizontally scrollbar appears. This will be overlaped of the fixed div. For me it is all logically, but I don't know how to get around this. My scrollbar of the #content-element should be visible the whole width of the window. So it would not be a solution for me to just reduce the width of the content if the panel is in view.
The whole css:
#content{
width:100%;
height:100%;
background:grey;
}
#left-panel{
position:fixed;
top:0;
left:0;
width:300px;
height:100%;
overflow-y:auto;
}
Can somebody help me fixing this with pure CSS?
Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/a2wn8x5z/1/
Your wrapper element is position:fixed; I think that you are talking about a overlay with a navigation panel on the left. Well, I had a similar situation and found out, that you can't use position:fixed; if your parent element is also position:fixed;. This will overlap the scrollbar of the parent wrapper (the overlay).
So you have to use position:absolute; instead or use this open source plugin to remove the width/height of the scrollbar from your element:
Scrollbar Fixer
perhaps your problem is in this code here
<div style="width:110%;border-right:10px solid black;height:200px;background:yellow;"></div>
remove the width:110%; and it should be good to go.
Here's the Updated Fiddle
Edit
I think I misunderstand what's the problem before.
Because on your case, you use position: fixed; for #wrapper and #left-panel, and both use stlye left: 0, their position will overlap each other in left from the viewport, you basically need to position the left of #wrapper not to be in the same position as #left-panel, so you need to add this to #wrapper
left:200px; /* the width of #left-panel (if left panel has border, add it to this too )*/
right:0;
and remove
width:100%;
here's the Updated Fiddle
to make sure it's what you want, try change the style of the div inside #content to width:200%; and add margin:20px;
Edit Two
the cause for the scrollbar to overlap each other is because in the fiddle you use position: fixed for the #wrapper, thus will not create a scrollbar in the body, then you add overflow:auto in the #wrapper, causing the scrollbar to be created for the #wrapper and not the body, so you need to change the CSS for #wrapper to this
#wrapper{
background:gray;
}
I don't include the height because for the div, the height is based on the child inside it, so you couldn't see the gray background, except you add some padding to it.
here's the Working Fiddle
First of all, you don't have to add "position: static;" style into your div, because it's static by default. There are two ways to solve your problem:
Add "position: relative;" into #content selector and declare #content after #left-panel in your HTML.
<div id="left-panel"></div>
<div id="content"></div>
#content{
position: relative;
width:100%;
height:100%;
background:grey;
}

Or add "position: relative; z-index: 1" (z-index of #content should be higher of #left-panel's) into #content selector.
<div id="content"></div>
<div id="left-panel"></div>
#content{
position: relative;
width:100%;
height:100%;
background:grey;
z-index: 1;
}

I have two floated div in a wrapper. They are left and right. I wanted to make the right div to appear at the top of first div(left). Right should come first and left should come at second.
Here is the code
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="left">
left
</div>
<div id="right">
right
</div>
</div>
CSS
#left{
float:right;
}
#right{
float:left;
width:100%;
}
#wrapper{
width:100px;
background-color: #000fff;
}
I'm looking to have the same 100% as width for right div. Is this possible without changing markup and doing changes in CSS alone?
JSFIDDLE
EDITED
I want the right div to be in top and left should in bottom after that. When i use position absolute for the right div then left div is hidden. JSFIDDLE.
Should look like this
Use the following css :
#left{
float:right;
border: 1px solid black;
}
#right{
float:left;
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
}
#wrapper{
width:100px;
background-color: #000fff;
}
If you want place the right div before left, just remove the float:left property from #right.
Fiddle
If you want the right DIV above the left, you need to use absolute position
First of all clear the float, then set position:relative to the parent "wrapper" and position:absolute; to the right div.
Check out this fiddle
If you want to do this with just css you have to use absolute positioning. But only if you know height of each element and exact number of elements like this. Check this fiddle.
Let's assume each element has 20px height, then you can place one at top: 0px and second at top:20px. And to use remaning space like usual relative way, you must add padding equals to total height of your elements that has absolute positioning to wrapper.
Alternatively you can use JavaScript to change order in html.
I'm not too convinced by the answers so far. I would recommend avoiding 'absolute' and even javascript. Also if you want to make it friendly to all browsers you should really be specifying things such as height. It's a common misconception that a design can't be worked on every modern browser without huge hacks (i was doing it years ago for IE5.5 and firefox etc), its usually due to the CSS not being properly formed and valid. Now try the following:
#left, #right {position:relative; float:left; height:30px; color:white; width:inherit; }
#left{
background-color:blue;
margin-top:30px;
}
#right{
background-color:green;
margin-left:-100%;
margin-top:0;
}
#wrapper{
width:100px;
background-color: #000fff;
}
I know it's a super-basic question, but I'm not able to find a solution. I have 2 div and I would like to display them as blocks (one below the other) without having 100% width. Here's my code.
HTML
<div id="container">
<div class="test">one</div>
<div class="test">two</div>
</div>
CSS
.test {
display:inline-block;
clear: both;
border:1px solid;
}
#container {
clear:both;
text-align:center;
}
Unfortunately this answer doesn't fit to me, since I need to center blocks horizontally (so float cannot be applied in my case). Here's the fiddle. Thanks in advance.
to center them on top of each other without taking 100% width and still use margin:auto; use : display:table;
.test {
display:table;
margin:auto;
border:solid;/* to see it */
}
You can specify the width of the divs, change display to block, and use margin: 0 auto to center them.
JSFiddle
You can also center the div by adding 50% left offset, and then negative margin in amount to half width of the div. I do not know how much is this applicable to your case, but here is an example:
.test {
position: relative;
border:1px solid;
width: 300px;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -150px;
}
You can see it in action here: http://jsfiddle.net/b8LuQ/7/
display:inline-block; is not allow the second line. Therefore I removed it and define width for both div test one two you can resize it and margin:auto is align center the both div in container here is an example
I am trying to align two divs horizontally and I got it to work using display:inline-block
however when I put overlfow-x:scroll to the main container it doesn't work. If the screen is smaller, one of the div goes to the bottom. How can I achieve this? I don't want the second Div to go to the bottom if the screen is small.
Here's fiddle
<div class="container">
<div class="test1">test1</div>
<div class="test2">test2</div>
</div>
.container{
display:table;
margin: 0 auto;
overflow-x:scroll;
}
.test1{
background-color:red;
width:500px;
margin-left:16px;
display:inline-block;
}
.test2{
margin-left:40px;
display:inline-block;
background-color:gray;
width:80px;
vertical-align:top;
}
give parameters to width and height, so container can overflow.
http://jsfiddle.net/f5HWD/3
.container{
width: 900px;
height: 700px;
display:table;
margin: 0 auto;
overflow:scroll;
}
I altered your code slightly and made the contents float left.
In order you get it to work, you just had to create a wrapper class. You need the outside container to be large enough to just fit your test divs, while the wrapper is large enough to hold both combined. This should be fairly easy to figure out and edit according to the heights/widths that you want the divs to be.
Fiddle
Hope it helps.
