Here I have create one div box using css stlye.
Fiddle: Correct view
But if the description is small then content misaligned as below:
Misaligned box
i tried changing the position and css values, but no luck.
Can some one tell me how can I keep footer part on it's position even if the content is small.
You need to clear the floats:
.footer-working-area {
clear:both; /* this sets the element flow back to normal */
background: transparent url(...) left 5px repeat-x;
/* /\ have some padding for the img */
}
Now the footer always stays below the picture, no matter how few text content you have.
Here you have the accordingly modified example fiddle.
You can give your text a min-height...
.text { min-height: 110px; }
... or a height if you don't expect longer texts
.text { height: 110px; }
... or clear the floats as Christoph mentioned in an other answer.
Add clearfix to the .text class
.text::after {
content: "";
display: block;
clear: both;
}

I'm attempting to style Wikipedia. I'd like to place the table of contents in a sidebar; however, I've come up against a few obstacles. I'd like to:
Vertically center the table of contents if it's shorter than the
viewport height.
Remove the scrollbar on long tables of contents while retaining scrolling ability.
Specify a sidebar %width and min/max widths, and have the body content fill the rest.
Please see this for a visual.
Here's what I have so far:
#-moz-document domain(wikipedia.org) {
#mw-navigation, #toctitle, #footer {display:none;}
/* Place table of contents in a sidebar */
#toc {
height: 100%;
width: 20%;
min-width: 150px;
max-width: 250px;
position: fixed; /* don't scroll with page. */
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
overflow: hidden; /* hide scrollbar, but... */
}
#toc > ul {
background: lightblue;
overflow: scroll; /* ...still allow scrolling? */
/* center vertically if shorter than height of viewport */
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
}
#content {
/* How to have contents fill the remaining width? */
}
}
Does anyone have solutions to these? Are they even possible?
I created a userscript which allows me to define custom links that display both horizontally across the top of Wikipedia as well as in the navigation panel which sits along the left side of the page. I copied it over to Gist in case anyone is interested. It should help you accomplish what your looking for I think:
Wikipedia User Defined Navigation Links (Gist)
To use this code you need to find your Wikipedia theme JS file which is going to be a subpage to your userpage. Mine is here. You can find yours by clicking this link which will automatically direct you to the appropriate location. You should be logged into Wikipedia first, and then click here.
I have an image with text aligned to the left of it. Both the image and text is sitting inside a div that I have styled to look like a red bubble in the background of the post. The bubble only goes as far as the text and not the image (the image goes down much farther than the text), causing the image to break into other posts. How do I make this div the correct size that can fit anything i put into it (in this case the image)?
jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/Sederu/CzNr6/
Add overflow:auto to your .post-bubble rule.
div.post-bubble {
padding: 10px;
background-color: #e17474;
border-radius: 10px;
overflow:auto;
}
jsFiddle example
If you want the content to allow anything inside of it, give it overflow:auto.
If you want the bubble to extend so that it also covers the img tag, however, give .post-bubble a height:
div.post-bubble {
padding: 10px;
background-color: #e17474;
border-radius: 10px;
height:600px;
overflow:auto;
}
The reason why the image extends farther than the div is because the img is taken out of the flow of the page, i.e. no longer being a block element, when you declare align:right.
either add overflow:auto; to your post-bubble div or define a height to the post-bubble div eg.. height: 600px; covers it nicely..
On div tag do a display:block in css
I think the best solution is to force element to self-clear its children.
div.post-bubble:after {
clear: both;
content: '';
display: table;
}
You can also create a specific class for other elements in your project/projects like:
.clear-children:after {
clear: both;
content: '';
display: table;
}
And add this class (.clear-children, without :after) to every element with floated children.

I have a square div of fixed size and wish to place an arbitrary size image inside so that it is centred both horizontally and vertically, using CSS. Horizontally is easy:
.container { text-align: center }
For the vertical, the common solution is:
.container {
height: 50px;
line-height: 50px;
}
img {
vertical-align: middle;
}
But this is not perfect, depending on the font size, the image will be around 2-4px too far down.
To my understanding, this is because the "middle" used for vertical-align is not really the middle, but a particular position on the font that is close to the middle. A (slightly hacky) workaround would be:
container {
font-size: 0;
}
and this works in Chrome and IE7, but not IE8. We are hoping to make all font lines the same point, in the middle, but it seems to be hit-and-miss depending on the browser and, probably, the font used.
The only solution I can think of is to hack the line-height, making it slightly shorter, to make the image appear in the right location, but it seems extremely fragile. Is there a better solution?
See a demo of all three solutions here:
http://jsfiddle.net/usvrj/3/
Those without IE8 may find this screenshot useful:
If css3 is an option, then flexbox does a good job at vertical and horizontal aligning:
UPDATED FIDDLE
.container {
display:flex;
align-items: center; /* align vertical */
justify-content: center; /* align horizontal */
}
How about using your image as a background? This way you could center it consistently everywhere. Something along these lines:
margin:5px;
padding:0;
background:url(http://dummyimage.com/50) no-repeat center center red;
height:60px;
width:60px;
This is REALLY hacky, but it is what we used to do in the ie6 days.
.container {
position: relative;
}
img {
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
margin-top: -12px; // half of whatever the image's height is, assuming 24px
margin-left: -12px; // half of whatever the image's width is, assuming 24px
}
I may be missing something in this example, but you get the idea.
Have you tried the following:
img {
display: block;
line-height: 0;
}
I usually use this hack, but I haven't really checked it that thoroughly in IE8.
Here is a small JS Fiddle I have made: http://jsfiddle.net/rachit5/Ge4YH/
I believe it matches your requirement.
HTML:
<div>
<img src=""/>
</div>
CSS:
div{height:400px;width:400px;position:relative;border:1px solid #000;}
img{position:absolute;top:0;left:0;right:0;bottom:0;margin:auto;}
I have a footer div with 100% width. It's about 50px high, depending on its content.
Is it possible to give that #footer a background image that kind of overflows this div?
The image is about 800x600px, and I want it to be positioned in the left bottom corner of the footer. It should work sort of like a background image for my website, but I've already set a background image on my body. I need another image positioned at the bottom left corner of my website and the #footer div would be perfect for that.
#footer {
clear: both;
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 30px 0 0;
background:#eee url(images/bodybgbottomleft.png) no-repeat left bottom fixed;
}
The image is set to the footer, however it doesn't overflow the div. Is it possible to make that happen?
overflow:visible doesn't do the job!
There is a very easy trick. Set padding of that div to a positive number and margin to negative
#wrapper {
background: url(xxx.jpeg);
padding-left: 10px;
margin-left: -10px;
}
I do not believe that you can make a background image overflow its div. Images placed in Image tags can overflow their parent div, but background images are limited by the div for which they are the background.
You can use a css3 psuedo element (:before and/or :after) as shown in this article
https://www.exratione.com/2011/09/how-to-overflow-a-background-image-using-css3/
Good Luck...
No, you can't.
But as a solid workaround, I would suggest to classify that first div as position:relative and use div::before to create an underlying element containing your image. Classified as position:absolute you can move it anywhere relative to your initial div.
Don't forget to add content to that new element. Here's some example:
div {
position: relative;
}
div::before {
content: ""; /* empty but necessary */
position: absolute;
background: ...
}
Note: if you want it to be 'on top' of the parent div, use div::after instead.
Using background-size cover worked for me.
#footer {
background-color: #eee;
background-image: url(images/bodybgbottomleft.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
clear: both;
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 30px 0 0;
}
Obviously be aware of support issues, check Can I Use: http://caniuse.com/#search=background-size
Use trasform: scale(1.1) property to make bg image bigger, move it up with position: relative; top: -10px;
<div class="home-hero">
<div class="home-hero__img"></div>
</div>
.home-hero__img{
position:relative;
top:-10px;
transform: scale(1.1);
background: {
size: contain;
image: url('image.svg');
}
}
You mention already having a background image on body.
You could set that background image on html, and the new one on body. This will of course depend upon your layout, but you wouldn't need to use your footer for it.
Not really - the background image is bounded by the element it's applied to, and the overflow properties only apply to the content (i.e. markup) within an element.
You can add another div into your footer div and apply the background image to that, though, and have that overflow instead.
This could help.
It requires the footer height to be a fixed number. Basically, you have a div inside the footer div with it's normal content, with position: absolute, and then the image with position: relative, a negative z-index so it stays "below" everything, and a negative top value of the footer's height minus the image height (in my example, 50px - 600px = -550px). Tested in Chrome 8, FireFox 3.6 and IE 9.
What's the best way to align icons (left) and text (right) or the opposite text on left and icon on right?
Does the icon image and text have to be the same size? Ideally I would like them to be different but be on the same vertical alignment.
I am using background-position css property to get the icons from a larger image.
Here is how I do it now, but I am struggling with either getting them to be on the same line or be vertically aligned to the bottom.
Text
This is what I get after I try your suggestions.
Though the text is now aligned with the icon, it is superimposed over the icon to the right of the icon that I want. Please note that i am using the background position to show the icon from a larger set of images.
Basically I am getting
<icon><10px><text_and_unwanted_icon_to_the_right_under_it>
<span class="group3_drops_icon group3_l_icon" style="">50</span>
group3_drops_icon {
background-position:-50px -111px;
}
.group3_l_icon {
-moz-background-clip:border;
-moz-background-inline-policy:continuous;
-moz-background-origin:padding;
background:transparent url(/images/group3.png) no-repeat scroll left center;
height:35px;
overflow:hidden;
padding-left:55px;
}
I usually use background:
<style type="text/css">
.icon {
background-image: url(path/to/my/icon.jpg);
background-position: left center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
padding-left: 16px; /* Or size of icon + spacing */
}
</style>
<span class="icon">Some text here</span>
You can do it on the same line using vertical-align and line-height
<p style='line-height: 30px'>
<img src='icon.gif' style='vertical-align: middle' />Icon Text
</p>
Alternatively, you can go the background approach with no-repeat and positioning:
span.icontext {
background: transparent url(icon.gif) no-repeat inherit left center;
padding-left: 10px /* at least the width of the icon */
}
<span class="icontext">
Icon Text
</span>
Sadly, neither of these answers are bullet proof and each have one big flaw.

I used to implement all my icons this way and it works quite well. But, and this is a big but, it does not work with sprites, since you're using the background-position property to position the icon inside the container that includes your text.
And not using sprites where you can is bad for performance and SEO, making them imperative for any good modern website.

The first solution has two markup flaws. Using elements semantically correctly is sadly underrated by some, but you'll see the benefits in prioritizing form in your search engine ranking. So first of all, you shouldn't use a p-tag when the content is not a paragraph. Use span instead. Secondly, the img-tag is meant for content only. In very specific cases, you might have to ignore this rule, but this isn't one of them.
My Solution:
I won't lie to you, I've checked in a lot of places in my time and IMHO there is no optimal solution. These two solutions are the ones that come closest to that, though:
Inline-Block Solution
HTML:
<div class="container">
<div class="icon"></div>
<span class="content">Hello</span>
</div>
CSS:
.container {
margin-top: 50px;
}
.container .icon {
height: 30px;
width: 30px;
background: #000;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.container .content {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
"display:inline-block;" is a beautiful thing. You can do so much with it and it plays very nicely with responsive design.
But it depends on your client. Inline-Block does not work well with IE6, IE7 and still causes problems with IE8. I personally no longer support IE6 and 7, but IE8 is still out there. If your client really needs his website to be usable in IE8, inline-block is sadly no option. Assess this first. Replace the black background of the icon-element with your sprite, position it, throw no-repeat in there and voilà, there you have it.
Oh yeah, and as a plus, you can align the text any way you want with vertical-align.
P.S.: I am aware that there's an empty HTML-tag in there, if anyone has a suggestion as to how to fill it, I'd be thankful.
Fixed Height Solution
.clearfix:after {
content: ".";
display: block;
clear: both;
visibility: hidden;
line-height: 0;
height: 0;
}
.clearfix {
display: inline-block;
}
html[xmlns] .clearfix {
display: block;
}
* html .clearfix {
height: 1%;
}
.container {
margin-top: 50px;
border: 1px solid #000;
}
.container .icon {
height: 30px;
width: 30px;
background: #000;
float:left;
}
.container .content {
line-height: 30px;
float: left;
display: block;
}
I hate this one. It uses a fixed line height for the text, and if you choose the same height as the Icon's box, the text is centered to that height. To align the text to the top, cut the line height, and as to the bottom, you'll have to fix that with position: absolute and a fixed width and height for the container. I'm not going to get into that unless someone requests it, because it's a whole issue for itself, and brings with it a lot of disadvantages.
The main disadvantage of this path is the fixed height. Fixed heights are always unflexible and especially with text, it can cause a bunch of problems (You can no longer scale the text as a user without it being cut off, plus different browsers render text differently). So be sure that in no browser the text is cut off and that it has some wiggle room inside its line height.
P.S.: Don't forget the clearfix for the container. And, of course, replace the black background with your sprite and according position + no-repeat.
Conclusion
Use inline-block if at all possible. ;) If it's not, breath deeply and try the second solution.
