Hello all and thanks for the input.
I've looked at a number of templates but haven't felt that I've found a clean way of presenting vertically centered content of a "section" on single page layouts. I am referring to the entire section space space here, not the elements within.
The desired effect is to limit the viewable content to sections at a time and use a scroll to move to the next section on the single page ... easy enough with easing.js.
So for a psuedo markup there would be something like
<section id="topic1"
<random element>
<random element>
</section>
... Some space added to ensure no overlap of sections are viewed here ...
... e.g. margin-top: 100px or 10%
<section id="topic2"
<random element>
<random element>
<random element>
<random element>
</section>
... Some space added ...
... e.g. margin-top: 100px
...etc
As the browser moves to each section (by anchors) each one would be shown with " empty space" and it delivers a nice effect. The challenge is to always have the sections vertically centered as we change devices in a 'responsive' type approach. I've also found some inconsistencies with Internet Explorer. Understandably at certain screen sizes (say table landscape height and phones) this becomes impossible and scrolling will be necessary.
Any thoughts on a CSS approach to implement this cleanly would be appreciated.
You can do it by using a wrap and using the css properties display:table and display:table-cell together with vertical-align:middle
HTML markup with your needed wrap:
<section id="topic1">
<div class="wrap">
<div> aaaa</div>
<div> aaaa</div>
</div>
</section>
Needed css:
section{
display:table;
height:220px;
background: #ccc;
width:100%;
}
.wrap{
display:table-cell;
vertical-align:middle;
}
Living demo
Using line-height is a more simple method but you need to know the height of the section.
You can find more ways about how to accomplish it here.
There are a couple different ways to can use the Bootstrap markup to achieve what you are looking for. Here is one example:
.space {
padding-bottom: 200px;
}
<section class="container space">
<div id="scroll-to" class="row">
<div class="col-xs-6 col-xs-offset-3">
<p class="text-center">Random Elements</p>
<p class="text-center">Random Elements</p>
<p class="text-center">Random Elements</p>
</div>
</div>
</section>
<section class="container space">
<div id="scroll-to" class="row">
<div class="col-xs-6 col-xs-offset-3">
<p class="text-center">Random Elements</p>
<p class="text-center">Random Elements</p>
<p class="text-center">Random Elements</p>
</div>
</div>
</section>
I would try and concentrate on the offset classes and look at using .center-block and .center-text. Center-block will align your elements center, and center-text will do the same for text. This will keep you from bloating your css and keep everything predictable for responsive design.
Hope this helps.

I'm trying to set some divs to width: 100% on Twitter Bootstrap 3 (including no paddings or margins).
JSfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/rq9ycjcx/
HTML:
<div class="container">
<header>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-2">
<img src="http://placehold.it/150x50">
</div>
<div class="col-md-10">Menu</div>
</div>
<div class="row gray">
<div class="col-md-6">
<h1>Page Title</h1>
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="breadcrumbs">Main page > page </div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<img src="http://placehold.it/350x150" />
</div>
</div>
</header>
<footer>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">Content</div>
</div>
<div class="row dark">
<div class="col-md-3">Footer 1</div>
<div class="col-md-3">Footer 2</div>
<div class="col-md-3">Footer 3</div>
<div class="col-md-3">Footer 4</div>
</div>
</footer>
</div>
What is the right way to get image http://placehold.it/350x150 width: 100%, including no paddings or margins?
Page title and breadcrumbs height is 80px.
If I resize window to smaller screen (e.g. mobile), text Main page > page disappears (it's somewhere but not on own row).
How to fix it?
Use <div class="container-fluid">. As per Bootstrap Docs: Use .container-fluid for a full width container, spanning the entire width of your viewport.
There is 0 padding on container-fluid.
In your code you have what appears to be body content in your header and you also have a div class="container" outside of your header and footer. This is not correct, you should have your container/container-fluid inside of your body. Also for your header you should use <nav="nav navbar-nav">.
Updated Fiddle
As suggested above, you can create a helper class
.padding-0 {
padding: 0;
}
and apply it to any HTML elements for which you need a padding reset. So in your case, it would look like this:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12 padding-0">
<img src="http://placehold.it/350x150" />
</div>
</div>
For the second problem, set height of .gray class to auto :
#media () {
.gray {
height: auto;
}
}
Note: You could also remove line-height: 80px, it's optional :)

There is no "right" way to do that in Bootstrap 3. It means you have to reset padding for the exact column.
You can create a class such as this one:
.col-md-12.resetPadding { padding:0px }
About Main page > page disappearing, I don't see this problem on my browsers (tested on Chrome and FF), but you have line-height: 80px there and as you said your breadcrumbs div has height: 80px;, so try to reduce line-height property and see how it works.
A simple way would be to remove the <div class="col-md-12">...</div> and add your content directly inside the row tag. The row tag removes the left & right gutters, whereas the cold-md-12 essentially adds the gutters back in.
The Bootstrap 3 documentation says that for single full width items you don't need any markup, eg just wrap it in <p> tags. However this will show the 15px gutters due to the page markup. So by simply adding in the row tag and placing your content directly inside this you will get 100% width content and be compliant with the BS3 documentation.
I have a block:
<section id="why">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12">
<img src="img/image.png" alt="image">
</div>
</div>
</div>
.container have a margins of left and right, and i can't position image on left of body.
I need to pull image on left of body, and i need to make it responsive.
it looks like this
Give this a try.
You don't need the container, row or col divs.
<section id="why" class="text-left">
<img src="img/image.png" alt="image">
</section>
To make an img responsive use this:
<img src="..." class="img-responsive" alt="Responsive image">
The .container has a padding of 15px on each side. By using a tool like Chrome Inspector, you can see the styles that each div has.
If not inspector, try removing each div that you have, one at a time and seeing how each one works. The time it took to ask this question, you could have narrowed it down by simply experimenting.
The official website is more than useful, is very well-documented, and it will clear up a lot of things if you take a little bit to read through it.
http://getbootstrap.com/css/
give this a try
<div id="why" class="pull-left">
<img src="..." class="img-responsive">
</div>
you will now have a responsive image. But take note that the class img-responsive by default is display: block. if you want to resize the image, just set the width and height of the image.
I am trying to get my footer, which has a grey color to show this color all the way to the bottom in my responsive design. It goes all the way across the page when in PC view mode, when I take it to the mobile size, the box only shows for half of the footer and then cuts off. I am not sure why it's not working for me.
Thanks ahead of time for taking a look.
HTML:

CSS:
#footer {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
width: 100%;
/* Set the fixed height of the footer here */
height: 280px;
background-color:#B6B6B4;
/*
You are using col-md-4 classes for your grid, causing each column take a full row in mobile view and your footer is not going all the way to the bottom of page because of its fixed height (280px).
Try using col-xs-4 for x-small devices and appropriate classes for other windows sizes.
This can be achieved by doing something like <div class="col-md-4 col-xs-6">Content</div> which means this columns will use 4 grids in desktop view and 6 grids in mobile viewport.
More documentation can be found here, under 'Grid options' section.
By the way, <center> tag is obsolete, I would recommend you to use Bootstrap's text-center CSS class.
First of all I would recommend posting your code in jsfiddle for easier debugging: http://jsfiddle.net/r7mTc/
In jsfiddle above you will see that content of the footer is way higher than the footer itself and stick out of it.
Now look here: http://jsfiddle.net/r7mTc/1/ I just deleted height line in CSS ;)
I also see few other problems in your code:
<p><center>Contact Stuff Here <p
class="footertext">Copyright 2014</p></center></p>
Tag p can contain only inline elements like span or img, so there shouldn't be nested p tags.
<p class="footertext">here is some more site map info<br>
Tag p should always has be closed, so you should add </p> after <br>
<center> tag is deprecated. Better practise is to use CSS for that - for example text-align:center for inline elements or margin:auto for blocks.
I have a DIV that I want to use to display some formatted content in. However, I have problems with some text TAGs inside the DIV.
You can see my problem in jsfiddle.
Can you please help me solve this?
I need the content of the second "column" to be able to word-wrap and when it would do that, I want the next "line" to be moved down so it would not overlap it.
Basically I want to text to look normal inside the DIV.
<div class="container-right">
<div class="topul" style="background-color:#2ecc71; width:352px;"></div>
<div class="parent" style="min-width:350px; width:350px; height:445px;">
<p class="myp" style="color:#2ecc71; font-size:2em; margin-bottom:0px"> <b>Worker information</b>
</p>
<div class="topul2" style="float:left; background-color:#2ecc71;"></div>
<div class="d-table">
<div class="d-tablerow">
<div class="d-tablecell" style="text-align:right; width:30%">
<p class="myp3" style="color:#2ecc71">Name:
<p>
</div>
<div class="d-tablecell" style="text-align:left; width:70%;">
<p class="myp4" style="color:#2ecc71"><b>Some name</b>
</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="d-tablerow">
<div class="d-tablecell" style="text-align:right; width:30%">
<p class="myp3" style="color:#2ecc71;">Address:</p>
</div>
<div class="d-tablecell" style="text-align:left; width:70%;">
<p class="myp4" style="color:#2ecc71; display:inline-block"><b>Here goes a long text as address that does not word-wrap and exits the DIV</b>
</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="d-tablerow">
<div class="d-tablecell" style="text-align:right; width:30%">
<p class="myp3" style="color:#2ecc71">Other info:</p>
</div>
<div class="d-tablecell" style="text-align:left; width:70%;">
<p class="myp4" style="color:#2ecc71; "><b>Here is other information</b>
</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
You can see the CSS in the jsfiddle link above.
I give up... I am a newbie with CSS and HTML and so far this is done manually by me after digging on google. But now I have no idea how to solve this.
Please help.
Thanks
The problem is with your .myp4 styles
To avoid the overlap remove height: 2px;
To avoid bleeding from the div set max-width: 200px;
As mentioned above set heights are a bit of a nightmare unless you're going for a specific look. It's better to use min-height or max-height
NOTE: You should seriously split all your CSS into a separate file rather than having them in the elements
Also is there a particular reason for you to use crazy displays? You could achieve the same effect easily by having a div wrapping two other divs that are float left. display: block; will give you less of a hard time if you're a newbie. Aim for less code, not more.
Try setting min-height instead of height on the rows and/or cells.
The width of the table is the culprit, it's allowing its children to run wild on your page. .d-table {
width: 350px;
}
I have this html code
<section id="sec" style="height:auto">
<div id="wrap">
<div id="con">
<h1>....</h1>
<div id="col1">
<p>... long texts ...</p>
</div>
<div id="col2">
<p>... long texts ...</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</section>
<div id="buttom" style="border-top: 1px solid rgb(153, 153, 153)">
<p>...text here ... </p>
</div>
my problem now is that the height:auto of section#sec did not work in many divs inside of it...
is there any way that wihout removing any divs, the height auto will be work?
height is not a property inherited from parent elements. If you want the divs inside section#sec to inherit this property, you need to make a selector for it in CSS (or set inline styles on each one manually).
section#sec div
{
height:auto;
}
But since height:auto is already the default, you may be looking for something else entirely.
