I've the following:
HTML (partial):
<div id="page">
<div id="header">
<div id="logo">
<img src="logo.jpg" alt="Logo" />
</div>
<div id="menu">
<ul>
<li>Item 1</li>
<li>Item 2</li>
<li>Item 3</li>
<!-- how many <li>s as need -->
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<div id="content">
</div>
<div id="footer">
</div>
</div>
CSS:
html, body {
min-height: 100%;
}
#page {
position: absolute;
right: 0;
width: 97%;
height: 100%;
overflow-y: auto;
text-align: center;
}
#header {
position: relative;
height: auto;
min-width: 100%;
margin: 10px auto 0 auto;
display: inline-block;
overflow-x: hidden;
}
#header #logo {
float: left;
}
#header #menu ul {
list-style-type: none;
}
#header #menu ul li {
height: 2em;
line-height: 2em;
}
#content {
position: relative;
margin: 20px auto 0 auto;
width: 95%;
}
#footer {
position: relative;
margin-top: 20px;
width: 100%;
height: 260px;
}
Explaining:
There is a container div (#page). Within it there are #header, #content and #footer.
#header space is split horizontally between #logo and #menu.
The problem:
I need to position #menu at bottom of #header but yet at side of #logo. I'm not getting it without break layout. How can I do this?
When new menu items be added, they should make menu go up, not down, this is why I need to do what I said above. The fist image below illustrates how I want to do and second how it actually is (lighter parts are within the darker and yes, it is a mobile layout):
First Image:
Second Image:
And please, no JavaScript, just pure CSS.
Thanks for attention, bye.
try changing display property of the #header to table, display of the #logo and #menu to 'table-cell' and verticaly align them to the bottom - it should do what you need
#header {
position: relative;
height: auto;
min-width: 100%;
margin: 10px auto 0 auto;
display: table;
overflow-x: hidden;
}
#logo {
display:table-cell;
vertical-align:bottom;
}
#menu {display:table-cell; vertical-align:bottom;}
selector in your css #header #logo is too much because identifiers cannot duplicate so #logo is really enough
here is working example: http://jsfiddle.net/6xBvR/1/
Add position:absolute; and bottom:0px; to #header #logo:
#header #logo {
float: left;
position: absolute;
bottom: 0px;
}
Should fix your problem. You could also truncate #header #logo to just #logo.
I wouldn't use float, I'd use display:inline-block and vertical-align:bottom
#logo {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align:bottom;
}
#menu {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align:bottom;
}
But you will need to set some widths.
I alos needed to remove padding from the ul
#menu ul {margin-bottom:0px}

so I have this little beginning of a site and I want the top menu to stay on top of anything else. I used position:fixed and now it does stay on top of everything except for one div that display a logo... I tried using z-index but that didn't help. How do I force that header to stay on top without using Js if possible...
The "blackBar" passes on top of the heading but it's the only this that does...
<body>
<div id="pageBloc">
<header>
<nav>
<ul>
<li>Stuff1</li>
<li>Stuff2</li>
<li>Stuff3</li>
<li>Stuff4</li>
<li>Stuff5</li>
</ul>
</nav>
</header>
<div id="topBloc">
<div id="blackBar">
<p id="logo"><img src="Images/logoSmall.png" alt="logo"</p>
<h1 id="titrePrincipal">MyTitle</h1>
<h2 id="soustitrePrincipal">SubTitle/h2>
</div>
</div>
<section id="temporatySection">
</section>
</div>
</body>
Here's the CSS
body, html
{
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
height:100%;
}
#pageBloc
{
height:100%;
}
/*Header*/
header
{
text-align:center;
background-color: #26292E;
height: 40px;
width: 100%;
position:fixed;
}
nav ul, nav li
{
margin-top:5px;
text-transform:uppercase;
display: inline-block;
list-style-type:none;
}
#topBloc
{
background: url('Images/backgroundBloc12.jpg') fixed center;
background-size:cover;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
#blackBar
{
background: rgba(38,41,46,0.80);
position:absolute;
bottom:15%;
width: 100%;
}
#logo
{
padding: 3px;
text-align: center;
}
#titrePrincipal
{
display:none;
text-align:center;
color: white;
}
#soustitrePrincipal
{
text-align: center;
color:black;
}
#temporarySection
{
height: 1000px;
}
Add position: relative; z-index: -1; to #logo.
Then, make sure that you add z-index: -2 to #blackbar.
See here: http://jsfiddle.net/davidpauljunior/gGMzD/1/
Instead of position fixed, you can try
position: absolute
top: 0
left: 0
right: 0
z-index: 100
but if you must use position fixed, you can disregard this and see the answer above.
My code - Plunker
I try to create a fluid layout, my sidebar is made of a list of links. I want each <li> element to be a perfect square, the problem starts when I add the text inside. It seems to be adding height to my square and what I get is a rectangle. If you examine my code the dimensions of my list objects are
32px X 43px. How can I prevent from an inside text to extend the <li> elements?
And how can I make the text appear on the bottom left side of the <li> element?
My CSS:
body{
width: 100%;
margin: 0 auto;
}
.content {
width: 95%;
display: inline;
float: left;
}
.sidebar{
width: 5%;
display: inline;
float: left;
}
.sidebar ul{
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
overflow: hidden;
list-style: none;
}
.sidebar li{
padding: 50%;
background-color: oldlace;
}
.sidebar a{
display: block;
font-size: 0.5em;
}
My HTML:
<body >
<h1>Hello Plunker!</h1>
<div class="sidebar">
<ul>
<li>ANALYTICS</li>
<li>STYLES</li>
<li>VOTERS</li>
<li>GET STARTED</li>
<li>UPDATE</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="content">
<p>Blahahhhahhhahahahahahahhahahah blahahahh bluah</p>
</div>
You could use position: relative on the li and position: absolute on the a. Using absolute will cause the a element to not affect the li's dimensions. In this way you can also position it in the corner.

.sidebar li{
padding: 50%;
position: relative;
}
.sidebar a{
display: block;
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
}
i am trying to center my css navigation bar but cant figure out why is not working, where am i doing wrong. i want it in the top center of the page.
i tried margin:0 auto but it wont work
here is my code:
<style>
ul {
list-style-type: none;
padding: 0;
overflow:hidden;
}
a:link,a:visited {
margin:0 auto;
display:block;
width: 120px;
font-weight:bold;
color:#FFFFFF;
text-align:center;
padding:4px;
text-decoration:none;
text-transform:uppercase;
}
a:hover, a:active {
background-color:#7A991A;
}
li {
float: left;
}
#menu {
background-color:#98bf21;
}
</style>
<div id="menu">
<header>
<ul>
<li>Home</li>
<li>News</li>
<li>Articles</li>
<li>Forum</li>
<li>Contact</li>
<li>About</li>
</ul>
</header>
</div>
Change your last two CSS rules to:
li {
display:inline-block;
}
#menu {
background-color:#98bf21;
text-align:center;
}
jsFiddle example
margin: 0 auto; only works on items that have defined widths. However, the way you currently have it written, each a tag is attempting to center, when you really want to center the ul. Here is a great way to center that when you don't know the width of your ul. Use these styles in your header, ul and li elements. Add styling to your a tags to suit.
header {
float: left;
width: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
position: relative;
}
ul {
float: left;
list-style: none;
position: relative;
left: 50%;
}
li {
display: block;
float: left;
position: relative;
right: 50%;
}
What's going on here is we're setting the header to full width, and then pushing the ul half way across the width of the browser. Then we push the li's back half the width of the ul, which now centers them on the page.
Here is a link with a very helpful tutorial about doing this very thing: http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/beautiful-css-centered-menus-no-hacks-full-cross-browser-support
Good luck!
Use the inline-block css magic :)
JSFiddle
li {
display: inline-block;
}
#menu {
background-color:#98bf21;
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: center;
width: 80%;
}
I had the same problem until I read this post and decided to center the text in the "nav".
So basically your ul should be in a nav so you can text-align: center the nav area.
nav {
width: 75%;
margin: auto
}
#menu {background-color: #98bf21}
.container{padding: 0.10em}
.cell-row {display:table; width:100%}
.cell {display: table-cell}
.cell-middle {vertical-align: middle}
a:link, a:visited {
font-weight: bold;
color: black;
text-align: center;
padding: 4px;
text-decoration: none;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
a:hover, a:active {background-color: #7A991A}
#media (max-width: 500px) {
.mobile {
display: block;
width: 100%;
text-align: center
}
nav {
width: 100%;
margin: auto
}
}
<nav>
<div id="menu" class="cell-row" style="text-align: center">
<div class="container cell cell-middle mobile">Home</div>
<div class="container cell cell-middle mobile">News</div>
<div class="container cell cell-middle mobile">Articles</div>
<div class="container cell cell-middle mobile">Forum</div>
<div class="container cell cell-middle mobile">Contact</div>
<div class="container cell cell-middle mobile">About</div>
</div>
</nav>
Add the following css:
ul {
margin: 0 auto;
display: inline-block;
}
This will make the ul fit its contents and then be centered in its container.
I wanted to make the links centered on the screen rather than placed in a location to a certain number of pixels.
Here's my code:
CSS:
.HorizLinks {
position: absolute;
top: 77px;
left: 180px;
}
.HorizLinks ul {
margin: 0px;
}
.HorizLinks li {
margin: 0px 15px 0px 0px;
list-style-type: none;
display: inline;
}
This is the HTML on the webpage:
<div id="container"></div>
<div id="header"></div>
<div class="HorizLinks">
<ul>
<li>Header Link 1</li>
<li>Header Link 2</li>
</ul>
</div>
Use text-align:center on the <div class="HorizLinks">. Also, set the padding of the ul elements to be 0.
Your absolute positioning of the container div is pushing the whole div to the side itself to the right side of the page, so unless you remove that, the content inside will never be able to be in the middle.
jsFiddle here.
CSS:
.HorizLinks {
text-align:center;
}
.HorizLinks ul {
margin: 0;
padding:0;
}
.HorizLinks li {
margin: 0 15px 0 0;
list-style-type: none;
display: inline;
}
hello i would like to know if it is possible to center a div without having a width. because of two different versions of a container depending from language settings with different widths i would like to center it dynamically.
margin: 0 auto;
is not working without any settings of width.
so the structure is simple:
<div id="container">
<div id="list">
<span class="up">text large</span>
<ul class="navigation">
<li>one</li>
<li>|</li>
<li>two</li>
<li>|</li>
<li>three</li>
<li>|</li>
<li>four</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
and the css:
.wrapper #container {
width: 960px;
clear: both;
margin: 0 auto;
}
.wrapper #container #list {
width: 420px;-->should be dynamically
margin: 0 auto; --> only works when setting width
}
.wrapper #container #list .up {
font-size: 11px;
float: left;
display: inline-block;
text-align: right;
display: inline;
}
.wrapper .navigation {
font-size: 10px;
margin-top: 15px;
float: left;
padding-left: 5px;
}
.wrapper .nav li {
float: left;
display: inline-block;
margin-left: 15px;
list-style: none;
}
so if there is someone who knows how to deal with that i really would appreciate.
thanks alot.
UPDATE:
thanks for answering this question for so far. using:
display: inline-block;
on that container that should be centered works great.
Use display: inline-block. See fiddle
.wrapper #container {
/* ... */
text-align: center;
}
.wrapper #container #list {
display: inline-block;
}
