Is there a way to have buttons that auto-resize to fit its container , in order to have responsive design?
It would be even better I think If there is an approach , not based on media queries (= less code)
Hope the image helps you. Here is the CSS for the button
.formButtonfront {
width: auto;
border:1px solid gray;
border-radius:7%;
float:right;
font-size:0.875;
}
The browser is Chrome in a laptop, just sized down
I want the grey button (placed after the image) to fit the white container
Thanks in advance
PS About the float : I have a clear:both; in the footer. Also even If I remove the float, the result is the same.
UPDATE
Here 's a jsfiddle
So you don't need display: block or float: none, but a max-width
.formButtonfront {
border:1px solid gray;
border-radius:7%;
font-size:0.875;
word-wrap: break-word;
width: 100px; // only for IE8
max-width: 100%;
}
Look at this fiddle (I reduce the size of the content to see how it looks)
make float: none and display: block for that button.
It will make button as container and fit the parent box.
I think it will help you.
button{
width: 250px;
max-width: 100%;
padding: 15px;
}
<button>
Button
</button>

I am relatively new to front-end dev so a bit lost as to how i can go about this. I created a container that contains a slider and some images. My supervisor has a huge screen so obviously there will be empty space at the bottom of the screen. So he doesn't want that. Instead he wants the container to be centered horizontally and vertically based on the size of the user's screen.
How can I do this properly with as minimal code as possible? I believe there is jQuery plugin but wanted to see if there is a better way or if doing this makes sense at all or not?
Due to the flow-based nature of CSS, without Javascript this can only be done if the vertical size of the centered element is fixed, by applying a position:absolute' andtop:50%` within a fixed container, and then use negative margin to offset the container. Click here for JSFiddle Sample.
Alternatively the same effect can be reached by using display:table-cell, but that's kind of messy and loses you a lot of flexibility. Sample already supplied in the other answer here so I'll save myself the effort :)
You can do it easily using a vertical-align property.
Since vertical-align works the desired way way only in a table cell, this trick with display property can give you the desired effect.
#yourDiv {
// give it a size
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
html, body {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
padding: 0; margin: 0;
}
html {
display: table;
}
body {
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
}
See a fiddle with demo.
Try this:
HTML:
<div class="center"></div>
CSS:
.center {
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
top: 50%;
margin-left: -150px;
margin-top: -150px;
background-color: red;
}

I have a question about the scrollbar that appears when it does not fit.
For example here I have one news item. Below a screenshot of the layout:
And when you add more items the scrollbar will appear over the date.
It's default behauviour for a scrollbar to appear inside a div, but is it possible to
apply css when the scrollbar appears inside. For example I could use a padding-right: 16px;
to the container. The only problem then, is another container is floated to it and these are inside a big container then the layout would collapse because of the extra padding.
Is there another way to keep the layout without breaking apart?
Here is the link: http://jsfiddle.net/EANbh/
and the css to the container:
.container {
width: 200px;
height:200px;
border: 1px solid grey;
overflow-y:auto;
overflow-x: hidden;
/*padding-right:16px;*/
}
Regards, Chris.
Another option without using the padding is:
.item {
display:inline-block;
width:184px;
height: auto;
border-bottom: 1px solid grey;
}
I want to make a div resizable with resize css property:
#foo{
overflow: hidden;
resize: both;
}
I can freely resize it with firefox.
with chrome/safari I can't resize it smaller than initial size.
their is a way to allow resize smaller with webkit? (min-width / min-height don't works)
see the live exemple from MDN (with 2 nested divs)
https://developer.mozilla.org/samples/cssref/resize.html
Better solution is to use :active pseudo class e.g:
div:active {
height: 0;
width: 0;
}
Example: http://jsfiddle.net/kronenbear/v4Lq5o09/1/
There is a small workaround that I found here, but it does work.
On hover, change the height and width to 1px
#foo:hover{
width: 1px;
height: 1px;
}
It sounds like this will cause a slight "flash" as the width and height are dramatically changing, but ... it is a hack.
I've been trying for hours but can't make it to work better than the hack, if I could just trigger a userresize I would be happy setting chrome's width to min-width then trigger resize to put it where I want, since it seems that you can move it back to original position after moving. But I don't find how to.
Using that live example as a reference, I was able to set the initial size to be equal to the width and height of the div, and the min-height and min-width to be the minimum dimensions allowable in Chrome.
#foo {
resize: both;
overflow: scroll;
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
min-width: 50px;
min-height: 70px;
}
div {
background-color: #acacac;
border: 1px solid #000;
}
<div id="foo"></div>
.mainCoverWrapper {
position: relative;
min-width:312px;
background:red
}
I'm trying to center a div with min-width of 312px and make it expand according to its dynamic content while keeping it centered.
Right now the min-with doesn't work at all because it needs a float. I can't use a float because I need the div centered on the page.
In other words, div starts out with margin auto with a width of 312px and expands with its added content while being centered. Is this possible?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here's a working example of the parent to follow the width of the child, and the child will expand according to the text given in it.
.myCoverWrapper {
border: 1px solid Peru;
margin:auto;
min-width: 200px;
max-width: 100%;
display: inline-block;
background: red;
}
.test {
height: 100px;
margin: 10px;
background: cyan;
}
This makes the parent div follow the width of the kid.
This however, will disallow you to "center" it. There's no way you can have both. This is because you cant center an image without knowing the width of the element.
The solution is to use jQuery, to add CSS in when necessary.
Here's an example. There's some bugs, but well, you have the general idea.
If you want the width to be fluid, your best bet is to set display: inline-block; on the to-be-centered element, and text-align: center; to the parent element.
See: CSS center display inline block?
How can I get an image to stretch the height of a DIV class?
Currently it looks like this:
However, I would like the DIV to be stretched so the image fits properly, but I do not want to resize the `image.
Here is the CSS for the DIV (the grey box):
.product1 {
width: 100%;
padding: 5px;
margin: 0px 0px 15px -5px;
background: #ADA19A;
color: #000000;
min-height: 100px;
}
The CSS being applied on the image:
.product{
display: inline;
float: left;
}
So, how can I fix this?
Add overflow:auto; to .product1
In the markup after the image, insert something like <div style="clear:left"/>. A bit messy, but it's the easiest way I've found.
And while you're at it, put a bit of margin on that image so the text doesn't butt up against it.
Assuming #John Millikin is correct, the code
.product + * { clear: left; }
would suffice to do the same thing without forcing you to manually adjust the code after the div.
One trick you can use is to set the <div>'s overflow property to hidden. This forces browsers to calculate the physical size of the box, and fixes the weird overlap problem with the floated image. It will save you from adding in any extra HTML markup.
Here's how the class should look:
.product1 {
width: 100%;
padding: 5px;
margin: 0px 0px 15px -5px;
background: #ADA19A;
color: #000000;
min-height: 100px;
overflow: hidden;
}
This looks like a job for clearfix to me ...
Try the following:
.Strech
{
background:url(image.jpg);
background-size:100% 100%;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
width:500px;
height:500px;
}
display:inline
float:left
is your problem
Floating makes the parents width not be stretched by the child, try placing the image without the float. If you take the float off, it should give you the desired effect.
Another approach would be to make sure you are clearing your floats at the end of the parent element so that they don't scope creep.
Update: After viewing your link Your height issue as displayed, is because the floats are not being cleared.
