I'm trying to set an img width to 100% of it's container, the container changes size based on screen width, when the image is lower than its original size, i want to set the img width to 100%, however when the image-container is larger than the original width of the image, I want th position the image centrally inside of the container.
Any ideas?
.server-listing {
width: 100%;
height: auto;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
.server-listing .image {
text-align: center;
}
.server-listing .image img {
width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
My current CSS, pretty basic really, I need direction - thanks guys!
<?php foreach($this->model->data['servers'] as $server) { ?>
<div class="server-listing">
<div class="image">
<img src="x.jpeg">
</div>
</div>
<?php } ?>
My phtml page
(NOTE: The image can be literally any size)
max-width is the CSS property you should be using!
.server-listing {
width: 100%;
height: auto;
margin-bottom: 10px;
background-color: lime;
}
.server-listing .image {
text-align: center;
}
.server-listing .image img {
max-width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
<div class="server-listing">
<div class="image">
<img src="http://placehold.it/500" />
</div>
</div>
You probably have to enter fullscreen mode to really play with this!
Please try max-width:100%; instead of width.
The max-width property is used to set the maximum width of an element.
This prevents the value of the width property from becoming larger than max-width.
See how it works for both small and large images:
.server-listing {
display: inline-block;
max-width: 100vw;
height: auto;
}
.server-listing .image {
text-align: center;
margin-bottom: 10px;
background-color: gray;
}
.server-listing .image img {
max-width: 95vw;
height: auto;
}
<div class='server-listing'>
<div class='image'>
<img src='https://fbcdn-profile-a.akamaihd.net/hprofile-ak-xap1/v/t1.0-1/c0.0.50.50/p50x50/10342461_799073063461766_6339462327156793350_n.jpg?oh=169a0d52644a444c2f723b1d1ec6c64b&oe=558BEB09&__gda__=1435700277_205a1d24a106c52496fe0e3eb20470e6' />

I think you have to add margin and display:
.server-listing .image img
{
width: 100%;
height: auto;
margin: 0px auto;
display: block;
}
I have the following HTML:
<article class="post clearfix">
<div class="post-img">
<img src="path/to/img"/>
</div>
<div class="post-details">
[content]
</div>
</article>
And the following CSS:
img {
max-width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
.post-img {
float: left;
width: 33.33%;
margin-right: 1.5em;
overflow: hidden;
}
I want the div.post-img to be 100% as tall as its parent article, and for the img inside it to be 100% tall as well. (It's OK if some of the image is clipped off from the left or right sides.)
The height of the article is unknown, so I can't hard code it.
Thanks in advance!
you can use this class:
.full-height{
height:100vh; /* 100% vertical view port height */
}
for example;
<img class="full-height" alt="" src="test.png" />
this best way for displaying a full height image.
Here is an option to do that http://jsfiddle.net/237u55q1/1/
.post{
display: table;
width: 100%;
table-layout: fixed;
overflow: hidden;
}
.post-img {
display: table-cell;
width: 33.33%;
margin-right: 1.5em;
overflow: hidden;
vertical-align: top;
position: relative;
}
.post-img img{
width: 100%;
height: auto;
position: absolute;
}
.post-details{
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: top;
width: 66.66%;
}
Add or remove content to see the image adopting to the height :)
Use background-image to set an image and background-size: 100% auto to the background image size.
I'm trying to understand what appears to be unexpected behaviour to me:
I have an element with a max-height of 100% inside a container that also uses a max-height but, unexpectedly, the child overflows the parent:
.container {
background: blue;
padding: 10px;
max-height: 200px;
max-width: 200px;
}
img {
display: block;
max-height: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
}
<div class="container">
<img src="http://placekitten.com/400/500" />
</div>
This is fixed, however, if the parent is given an explicit height:
.container {
background: blue;
padding: 10px;
max-height: 200px;
max-width: 200px;
height: 200px;
}
img {
display: block;
max-height: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
}
<div class="container">
<img src="http://placekitten.com/400/500" />
</div>
Does anyone know why the child would not honour the max-height of its parent in the first example? Why is an explicit height required?
When you specify a percentage for max-height on a child, it is a percentage of the parent's actual height, not the parent's max-height, oddly enough. The same applies to max-width.
So, when you don't specify an explicit height on the parent, then there's no base height for the child's max-height to be calculated from, so max-height computes to none, allowing the child to be as tall as possible. The only other constraint acting on the child now is the max-width of its parent, and since the image itself is taller than it is wide, it overflows the container's height downwards, in order to maintain its aspect ratio while still being as large as possible overall.
When you do specify an explicit height for the parent, then the child knows it has to be at most 100% of that explicit height. That allows it to be constrained to the parent's height (while still maintaining its aspect ratio).
.container {
background: blue;
padding: 10px;
max-height: 200px;
max-width: 200px;
float: left;
margin-right: 20px;
}
.img1 {
display: block;
max-height: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
}
.img2 {
display: block;
max-height: inherit;
max-width: inherit;
}
<!-- example 1 -->
<div class="container">
<img class='img1' src="http://via.placeholder.com/350x450" />
</div>
<!-- example 2 -->
<div class="container">
<img class='img2' src="http://via.placeholder.com/350x450" />
</div>
I played around a little. On a larger image in firefox, I got a good result with using the inherit property value. Will this help you?
.container {
background: blue;
padding: 10px;
max-height: 100px;
max-width: 100px;
text-align:center;
}
img {
max-height: inherit;
max-width: inherit;
}
Instead of going with max-height: 100%/100%, an alternative approach of filling up all the space would be using position: absolute with top/bottom/left/right set to 0.
In other words, the HTML would look like the following:
<div class="flex-content">
<div class="scrollable-content-wrapper">
<div class="scrollable-content">
1, 2, 3
</div>
</div>
</div>
.flex-content {
flex-grow: 1;
position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.scrollable-content-wrapper {
position: absolute;
left: 0;
right: 0;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
overflow: auto;
}
.scrollable-content {
/* Add styling here */
}
Try it below:
.flex-content {
flex-grow: 1;
position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.scrollable-content-wrapper {
position: absolute;
left: 0;
right: 0;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
overflow: auto;
}
html {
height: 50%;
width: 50%;
}
body {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
.parent {
height: 100%;
outline: 1px solid red;
}
<html>
<body>
<div class="parent">
<div class="flex-content">
<div class="scrollable-content-wrapper">
<div class="scrollable-content" id="scrollable">
1, 2, 3
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<button onClick="scrollable.innerText += '\nSome more text'" style="margin-top: 1rem;">Add Line</button>
<p>
The red outline represents the parent. Click above to add a line until overflow occurs to see that the size of the parent is not increased.
</p>
</body>
</html>
I found a solution here:
http://www.sitepoint.com/maintain-image-aspect-ratios-responsive-web-design/
The trick is possible because it exists a relation between WIDTH and PADDING-BOTTOM of an element. So:
parent:
container {
height: 0;
padding-bottom: 66%; /* for a 4:3 container size */
}
child (remove all css related to width, i.e. width:100%):
img {
max-height: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
position: absolute;
display:block;
margin:0 auto; /* center */
left:0; /* center */
right:0; /* center */
}
You can use the property object-fit
.cover {
object-fit: cover;
width: 150px;
height: 100px;
}
Like suggested here
A full explanation of this property by Chris Mills in Dev.Opera
And an even better one in CSS-Tricks
It's supported in
Chrome 31+
Safari 7.1+
Firefox 36+
Opera 26+
Android 4.4.4+
iOS 8+
I just checked that vivaldi and chromium support it as well (no surprise here)
It's currently not supported on IE, but... who cares ? Also, iOS supports object-fit, but not object-position, but it will soon.
Here is a solution for a recently opened question marked as a duplicate of this question. The <img> tag was exceeding the max-height of the parent <div>.
Broken: Fiddle
Working: Fiddle
In this case, adding display:flex to the 2 parent <div> tags was the answer
Maybe someone else can explain the reasons behind your problem but you can solve it by specifying the height of the container and then setting the height of the image to be 100%. It is important that the width of the image appears before the height.
<html>
<head>
<style>
.container {
background: blue;
padding: 10px;
height: 100%;
max-height: 200px;
max-width: 300px;
}
.container img {
width: 100%;
height: 100%
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<img src="http://placekitten.com/400/500" />
</div>
</body>
</html>
The closest I can get to this is this example:
http://jsfiddle.net/YRFJQ/1/
or
.container {
background: blue;
border: 10px solid blue;
max-height: 200px;
max-width: 200px;
overflow:hidden;
box-sizing:border-box;
}
img {
display: block;
max-height: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
}
The main problem is that the height takes the percentage of the containers height, so it is looking for an explicitly set height in the parent container, not it's max-height.
The only way round this to some extent I can see is the fiddle above where you can hide the overflow, but then the padding still acts as visible space for the image to flow into, and so replacing with a solid border works instead (and then adding border-box to make it 200px if that's the width you need)
Not sure if this would fit with what you need it for, but the best I can seem to get to.
A good solution is to not use height on the parent and use it just on the child with View Port :
Fiddle Example: https://jsfiddle.net/voan3v13/1/
body, html {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.parent {
width: 400px;
background: green;
}
.child {
max-height: 40vh;
background: blue;
overflow-y: scroll;
}
Containers will already generally wrap their content nicely. It often doesn't work as well the other way around: children don't fill their ancestors nicely. So, set your width/height values on the inner-most element rather than the outer-most element, and let the outer elements wrap their contents.
.container {
background: blue;
padding: 10px;
}
img {
display: block;
max-height: 200px;
max-width: 200px;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/mpalpha/71Lhcb5q/
.container {
display: flex;
background: blue;
padding: 10px;
max-height: 200px;
max-width: 200px;
}
img {
object-fit: contain;
max-height: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
}
<div class="container">
<img src="http://placekitten.com/400/500" />
</div>
This question already has answers here:
How can I horizontally center an element?
(133 answers)
Closed 4 years ago.
I have a div tag with width set to 800 pixels. When the browser width is greater than 800 pixels, it shouldn't stretch the div, but it should bring it to the middle of the page.
<body>
<div style="width:800px; margin:0 auto;">
centered content
</div>
</body>
position: absolute and then top:50% and left:50% places the top edge at the vertical center of the screen, and the left edge at the horizontal center, then by adding margin-top to the negative of the height of the div, i.e., -100 shifts it above by 100 and similarly for margin-left. This gets the div exactly in the center of the page.
#outPopUp {
position: absolute;
width: 300px;
height: 200px;
z-index: 15;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
margin: -100px 0 0 -150px;
background: red;
}
<div id="outPopUp"></div>
Flexbox solution is the way to go in/from 2015. justify-content: center is used for the parent element to align the content to the center of it.
HTML
<div class="container">
<div class="center">Center</div>
</div>
CSS
.container {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
}
Output
.container {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
}
.center {
width: 400px;
padding: 10px;
background: #5F85DB;
color: #fff;
font-weight: bold;
font-family: Tahoma;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="center">Centered div with left aligned text.</div>
</div>
Do you mean that you want to center it vertically or horizontally? You said you specified the height to 800 pixels, and wanted the div not to stretch when the width was greater than that...
To center horizontally, you can use the margin: auto; attribute in CSS. Also, you'll have to make sure that the body and html elements don't have any margin or padding:
html, body { margin: 0; padding: 0; }
#centeredDiv { margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; width: 800px; }
<div></div>
div {
display: table;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
}
To make it also work correctly in Internet Explorer 6 you have to do it as follows:
HTML
<body>
<div class="centered">
centered content
</div>
</body>
CSS
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: center; /* !!! */
}
.centered {
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: left;
width: 800px;
}
Div centered vertically and horizontally inside the parent without fixing the content size
Here on this page is a nice overview with several solutions, too much code to share here, but it shows what is possible...
Personally I like this solution with the famous transform translate -50% trick the most. It works well for both fixed (% or px) and undefined height and width of your element.
The code is as simple as:
HTML:
<div class="center"><div>
CSS:
.center {
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
top: 50%;
-moz-transform: translate(-50%, -50%); /* Firefox */
-ms-transform: translate(-50%, -50%); /* IE 9 */
-webkit-transform: translate(-50%, -50%); /* Safari and Chrome*/
-o-transform: translate(-50%, -50%); /* Opera */
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
/* optional size in px or %: */
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
}
Here a fiddle that shows that it works
You can also use it like this:
<div style="width: 60%; margin: 0px auto;">
Your contents here...
</div>
Simply use the center tag just after the body tag, and end the center tag just before body ends:
<body>
<center>
... Your code here ...
</center>
</body>
This worked for me with all the browsers I have tried.
This can be easily achieved via flex container.
.container{
width: 100%;
display: flex;
height: 100vh;
justify-content: center;
}
.item{
align-self: center;
}
Preview Link
Add this class to the div you want centered (which should have a set width):
.marginAutoLR
{
margin-right:auto;
margin-left:auto;
}
Or, add the margin stuff to your div class, like this:
.divClass
{
width:300px;
margin-right:auto;
margin-left:auto;
}
Use the CSS flex property: http://jsfiddle.net/cytr/j7SEa/6/show/
body { /* Centered */
display: box;
flex-align: center;
flex-pack: center;
}
Some other pre-existing setups from older code that will prevent div page centering L&R are:
Other classes hidden in external stylesheet links.
Other classes embedded in something like an img (like for older external CSS print format controls).
Legend code with IDs and/or CLASSES will conflict with a named div class.
Centering without specifying div width:
body {
text-align: center;
}
body * {
text-align: initial;
}
body div {
display: inline-block;
}
This is something like <center> tag does, except:
all direct inline childs elements (eg. <h1>) of <center> will also positioned to center
inline-block element can have different size (comapred to display:block setting) according to browser defaults
Use the below code for centering the div box:
.box-content{
margin: auto;
top: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
position: absolute;
width: 800px;
height: 100px;
background-color: green;
}
<div class="box-content">
</div>
If you have some regular content, and not only one line of text, the only possible reason I know is to calculate margin.
Here is an example:
HTML
<div id="supercontainer">
<div id="middlecontainer">
<div class="common" id="first">first</div>
<div id="container">
<div class="common" id="second">second</div>
<div class="common" id="third">third</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
.common {
border: 1px solid black;
}
#supercontainer {
width: 1200px;
background: aqua;
float: left;
}
#middlecontainer {
float: left;
width: 104px;
margin: 0 549px;
}
#container {
float: left;
}
#first {
background: red;
height: 102px;
width: 50px;
float: left;
}
#second {
background: green;
height: 50px;
width: 50px;
}
#third {
background: yellow;
height: 50px;
width: 50px;
}
So, #supercontainer is your "whole page" and its width is 1200px.
#middlecontainer is div with content of your site; it's width 102px. In case the width of content is known, you need to divide the page's size to 2, and subtract half of content's width from the result:
1200 / 2 - (102 / 2) = 549;
Yes, I'm also seeing that this is der grosse fail of CSS.
.middle {
margin:0 auto;
text-align: center;
}
/* it brings div to center */
parent {
position: relative;
}
child {
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
transform: translateX(-50%);
}
<parent>
<child>
</child>
</parent>

http://jsfiddle.net/NPV2E/
"width:100%" for the "body" tag is only for an example. In a real project you may remove this property.
Simple http://jsfiddle.net/8pd4qx5r/
html {
display: table;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
body {
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.content {
margin: 0 auto;
width: 260px;
text-align: center;
background: pink;
}
This also works in Internet Explorer, but auto margins do not.
.centered {
position: absolute;
display: inline-block;
left: -500px;
width: 1000px;
margin: 0 50%;
}
If your center content is deep inside other divs then only margin can save you. Nothing else. I face it always when not using a framework like Bootstrap.
In my case, the phone screen size is unknown, and here is what I did.
HTML
<div class="loadingImg"></div>
CSS
.loadingImg{
position: fixed;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
z-index: 9999999;
border: 0;
background: url('../images/loading.gif') no-repeat center;
background-size: 50px 50px;
display: block;
margin: 0 auto;
-webkit-border-radius: 50px;
border-radius: 50px;
}
JavaScript (before you need to show this DIV)
$(".loadingImg").css("height",$(document).height());
$(".loadingImg").css("width",$(document).width());
$(".loadingImg").show();
<body>
<div style=" display: table; margin: 250 auto;">
In center
</div>
</body>
If you want to change the vertical position, change the value of 250 and you can arrange the content as per your need. There is no need to give the width and other parameters.
For some reason, none of the previous answers worked for me really. This is what worked for me and it works across browsers as well:
.center {
text-align: center;
height: 100%;
/* Safari, Opera, and Chrome */
display: -webkit-box;
-webkit-box-pack: center;
-webkit-box-align: center;
/* Firefox */
display: -moz-box;
-moz-box-pack: center;
-moz-box-align: center;
/* Internet Explorer 10 */
display: -ms-flexbox;
-ms-flex-pack: center;
-ms-flex-align: center;
}
Get the width of the screen.
Then make margin left 25%
Make margin right 25%
In this way the content of your container will sit in the middle.
Example: suppose that container width = 800px;
<div class='container' width='device-width' id='updatedContent'>
<p id='myContent'></p>
<contents></contents>
<contents></contents>
</div>
if ($("#myContent").parent === $("updatedContent"))
{
$("#myContent").css({
'left': '-(device-width/0.25)px';
'right': '-(device-width/0.225)px';
});
}
