I would like to have a div ignore the margin of its parent div as in such a case:
html:
<div class="wrap">
I'm annoying!
<div class="myown"> I don't want to have that annoying guy's margin! </div>
</div>
css:
.wrap {width: 200px; margin: 0 auto;} /* Do not change */
.myown{margin: 0;}
I found this answer but it still doesn't work!
Here it is when ran: http://jsfiddle.net/KYbq3/2/
Under my circumstances I cannot change .wrap but only .myown.
If you want it to "break out" of the container, then your only option seems to be position: absolute;. The problem with it is that it takes the element out of the natural flow.
.myown{
position: absolute;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
}
Check the demo
if you know the width of the parent warp, you can calculate the diference with the viewport
then divide the diference between 2 (left and right margin)
and use the value as a negative margin-left for your own element.
and if you want to ignore the right margin, you can assign the with to 100vw.
<style>
.wrap {width: 200px; margin: 0 auto;} /* Do not change */
.myown {
margin-left: calc( (-100vw + 200px ) /2);
width: 100vw;
}
</style>
<div class="wrap">
I'm annoying!
<div class="myown"> I don't want to have that annoying guy's margin! </div>
</div>

Pretty simple question, but can't seem to find the solution. I have 5 elements: 2 floating left, 2 floating right. The fifth element is supposed to be in the perfect center of the div (#infographic), no matter what the screen width is.
example:
1,2 -- 3 -- 4,5 OR 1,2 ----- 3 ----- 4,5
HTML code:
<div id="infographic">
<div class="icon-one"></div>
<p>me</p>
<div class="arrows"></div>
<p>customer</p>
<div class="icon-two"></div>
</div>
Any suggestions to get the element in the center?
I guess this is the output you are looking for :
DEMO
html, body,p{
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
#infographic * {
width:10%;
height:30px;
background:teal;
padding:0;
margin:0 1%;
}
#infographic .icon-one, #infographic .icon-one + p {
float:left;
}
#infographic .icon-two, #infographic .icon-two + p {
float:right;
}
#infographic .arrows{
margin:0 auto;
text-align:center;
}
<div id="infographic">
<div class="icon-one"></div>
<p>me</p>
<div class="icon-two"></div>
<p>customer</p>
<div class="arrows">arrows</div>
</div>
If 12 and 45 have fixed width you can not achieve this using css float, you must use something like absolute positionning instead.
For more information qive a link to your page in its current state, or some more code.
Try this:
If you have two floated divs, then you know the margins. The problem
is that the float:right div should be put before the middle div. So
basically you will have:
left-floated | right-floated | centered
Now, about the margins: usually you can just use margin:0 auto, right?
The problem is that right now you know the values of the margins:
floated divs! So you just need to use:
margin:0 right-floated-width 0 left-floated-width
That should work...
See: this answer
Add position: relative to the container to allow the .arrows to be positioned absolutely relative to the container. Position the .arrows at the center of the container by using top: 50% and left: 50% (the percentages are relative to the container) and then move the .arrows a bit to the top left by using transform: translate(-50%, -50%) (percentages are relative to the .arrows)
.arrows {
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
}
See http://codepen.io/ckuijjer/pen/rhEgy for an example or http://css-tricks.com/centering-css-complete-guide/ for a complete tutorial on horizonal/vertical centering.
If it's only about horizontal centering you might even be able to use
.arrows {
margin: 0 auto;
}
as floating elements are taken outside of the normal document flow
First, it should be possible to group the left and right floated elements together. What we can then do is create a 'fake' wrapper that fills up the entire container. If we know the width of the element to be centered, this can then be centered using a margin.
<div id="infographic">
<div class='leftcol left'>
<div class="icon-one left">1</div>
<p class='left'>me</p>
<div class='clear'></div>
</div>
<div class='rightcol right'>
<p class='right'>customer</p>
<div class="icon-two right">2</div>
<div class='clear'></div>
</div>
<div class='center'>
<div class="arrows">A</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
.left {
float: left; }
.right {
float: right;}
.center {
overflow: hidden;
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
}
.arrows {
margin: 0 auto;
display: block;
width: 30px;
}
.clear {
clear: both;
}
#infographic {
position: relative;
}
If we do not know the width of the centered element, take a look at the question Centering a div block without the width and apply the solution there.
Note that the solution presented assumes that the center width is never so wide that it will become wider than the two columns on the left and the right. If you want to have safeguards for that you should set a maximum width percentage like so (the example restricts each column to one-third of the total width):
.leftcol .rightcol .arrows {
max-width: 33.3%
}
I have a floating central DIV with 2 divs inside it. I would like to have the left side DIV set with a fixed width and the right hand div to be responsive. I just am unable to make it work.
I am looking for a better way to do achieve this result. My original code is below:
CSS
div#content {max-width: 1140px; min-width: 960px; margin:0 auto; }
div#left {width: 100px; float: left;}
div#right {background:#F63; min-width: 860px; max-width: 1040px; float:left; }
HTML
<div id="content">
<div id="left">Left Content </div>
<div id="right">Right Content </div>
</div>
Take a look at this question, it seems to address your problem: CSS side by side div with Pixel and Percent widths
They suggest to give #right a margin-left the same size as the #left div
I made a fiddle with the changes below:
div#content {width: 100%; margin:0 auto; }
div#left {width: 100px; float: left;}
div#right {background:#F63; margin-left: 100px; }
Does it look like what you were hoping for?
I assume since you want responsive you do not want the bottom scroll bar to appear.
Since you want responsive you need to do the math on the with to become a %.
I took your max-width:1140px; as a basis and made the max-width 88% (the % value of the remainder of the 1140 after the fixed 100px was removed.
This allowed for the responsiveness. For a minimum width I applied 70% just so the area did not push below the left div (due to the float:left;)
here is the working fiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/pur4z/2/
CSS
div#content {max-width: 1140px; margin:0 auto; }
div#left {width: 100px; float: left;}
div#right {background:#F63; min-width:70%; max-width:88%; float: left;}
HTML
<div id="content">
<div id="left">Left Content </div>
<div id="right">Right Content </div>
</div>
I am trying to create fixed position div inside relative container. I am using bootstrap css framework. I am trying to create a fixed position cart. So whenever user scroll page it will show cart contents. but now problem is, it ran outside that container div.
This has to work in responsive mode.
Here my try:
.wrapper {
width: 100%
}
.container {
width: 300px;
margin: 0 auto;
height: 500px;
background: #ccc;
}
.element {
background: #f2f2f2;
position: fixed;
width: 50px;
height: 70px;
top: 50px;
right: 0px;
border: 1px solid #d6d6d6;
}
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="container">
<div class="element">
fixed
</div>
</div>
</div>
Screenshot:
This is how position: fixed; behaves:
MDN link
Do not leave space for the element. Instead, position it at a
specified position relative to the screen's viewport and doesn't move
when scrolled. When printing, position it at that fixed position on
every page.
Hence, to get what you want you have to use something more than fixed positioning:
Probably this:
.wrapper {
width: 100%
}
.container {
width: 300px;
margin: 0 auto;
height: 500px;
background: #ccc;
}
.element {
background: #f2f2f2;
position: fixed;
width: 50px;
height: 70px;
margin-left: 250px;
border: 0px solid #d6d6d6;
}
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="container">
<div class="element">
fixed
</div>
</div>
</div>
Make the element's parent container have position: relative
Instead of using top or left use margin-top and/or margin-left
If you only use top that will position the element based on the window, but if you use margin-top that will position based on the parent element. Same goes for left or right
<div class="parent">
<div class="child"></div>
</div>
.parent {
position: relative;
}
.child {
position: fixed;
margin-top: 30px;
margin-left: 30px;
}
I found the answer to that :
<div class="container">
<div class="inContainer">
<p> coucou </p>
</div>
<div>
<p> other thing</p>
</div>
</div>
You want that class="inContainer" are in class="Container" in fixed position but if you scroll with the navigator scroll you don't want that the class="inContainer" move outside the class="container"
So you can make something like that
.container{
height: 500px;
width: 500px;
overflow-y:scroll;
}
.inContainer {
position: absolute;
}
So class=inContainer will be always on the top of you're class=Container and move with you're class=container if you scroll with navigator scroll =)
(tested only with chrome)
No it's impossible because fixed property throws the element out of the flow so it doesn't depend to anything on the document and yes it is no more contained in your container : )
Yes, you can do it, just use margin-top property instead of top property.
When you use position: fixed and specify a top and or left position,
you'll find that the element will be fixed relative to the window, and
not to any other element of position: relative.
There is a way around this and that is not to specify top and left
positions but instead to use margin-left and margin-top on the
position: fixed element.
Source: https://www.gravitywell.co.uk/latest/design/posts/css-tip-fixed-positioning-inside-a-relative-container/
The behavior of the positioning is mentioned in the AdityaSaxena's answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/18285591/5746301
For creating a fixed position cart, you can also do it with using the jquery.
If we apply the Left or right value or margin, we may face some issue while responsive.
In the below snippet, I have placed the fixed element at the right of the container.
Even if the width of the container increased the fixed element placed accordingly.
Here is the jsfiddle Demo URL
//Jquery
$(document).ready(function(){
var containerWidth = $(".container").outerWidth();
var elementWidth = $(".element").outerWidth();
var containerOffsetLeft = $(".container").offset().left;
var containerOffsetRight = containerOffsetLeft + containerWidth - elementWidth;
$(".element").css("left", containerOffsetRight);
});
//CSS
.wrapper {
width:100%
}
.container {
width:300px;
margin:0 auto;
height:900px;
background:#ccc;
}
.element {
background:#f2f2f2;
position:fixed;
width:50px;
height:70px;
top:50px;
border:1px solid #d6d6d6;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="container">
<div class="element">
fixed
</div>
</div>
</div>
Hope this may help you.
Thanks
If you are looking to show the cart even when the user scrolls that is fixed then you should use position:fixed for the cart (if .container is your cart), because it should be shown with respect to screen/viewport. Your current code will only show the element which is positioned absolutely inside the container. If you want it to be like that then give :
.container {
position:relative;
}
.element {
position:absolute;
top:50px;
right:0px;
}
<div style="position: fixed;bottom: 0;width: 100%;">
<div class="container" style="position: relative;">
<div style="position: absolute;right: 40px;bottom: 40px;background:#6cb975;border-radius: 50%;width: 40px;text-align: center;height: 50px;color: #fff;line-height: 50px;">
F
</div>
</div>
</div>
You can just add
.element {
left:368px;
}
Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/UUgG4/
I was under the impression that when using % or auto for margins on a div contained within another div the position would be calculated in respect to the parent div.
So if I have a div with height: 50%, margin-top: 25% and margin-bottom: 25% the box should centre vertically within the parent div.
When I do this though the div centres on the page not the parent div.
The CSS
div#header {
width: 100%;
height: 100px;
margin: 0px;
position: fixed;
}
div#leftnavigation {
height: 50%;
margin-top: 25%;
margin-bottom: 25%;
float: left;
}
And the HTML
<!--Title and navigation bar-->
<div id='header'>
<!--Left navigation container-->
<div id='leftnavigation'>
<p>efwfwgwegwegweg</p>
</div>
</div>
In my case there are other divs floated to the right of the one detailed above, but any one of them behaves the same way. I'm assuming I'm doing something daft but I've been over all the other questions I could find along these lines and still can't figure it out.
EDIT
Here's the JSFiddle as requested http://jsfiddle.net/ChtVv/
UPDATE
I've tried removing the margin constraints and setting the leftnavigation div to height: 100%, this works so the issue is with the margin attribute?
The reason it didn't work is that percentage-margins are percentages of the parent's width, not its height. You can tell this by using margin-top: 25px; margin-bottom: 25px;, and also by increasing the width of the right-panel in jsFiddle.
In all cases % (percentage) is a valid value, but needs to be used
with care; such values are calculated as a proportion of the parent
element’s width, and careless provision of values might have
unintended consequences.

CSS is tricky!! :D
This is a borrowed technique to centre vertically and horizontally, but it would involve changing your HTML and CSS. I am not sure how flexible you are with your code:
CSS:
#outer {width: 100%; border: 3px solid red;}
#middle {width: 100%; text-align: center;border: 3px solid green;}
#inner {width: 200px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: left;border: 3px solid blue;}
/* Courtesy: http://www.jakpsatweb.cz/css/css-vertical-center-solution.html */
HTML
<!--Title and navigation bar-->
<div id='outer'>
<!--Left navigation container-->
<div id='middle'>
<p id="inner">efwfwgwegwegweg</p>
</div>
</div>
You can build upon this to achieve whatever you are after!
fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/pratik136/ChtVv/2/
Ok, so there are a lot of reasons why this would not work.
The main reason would be that your container has position:fixed;
When adding position:fixed; to a element, it no longer reserved it's space in the DOM and won't contain it's children.
I have made a example of the best way (in my Opinion) to center your child both Vertically & Horizontally
Here is a demo.
Demo
And here is the code.
<div id="container">
<div id="child"></div>
</div>
#container{
width:100%;
height:500px;
background:#CCC;
margin:0;
}
#child{
width:50%;
height:50%;
background:#EEE;
position:relative;
top:25%;
left:25%;
}
The following code has a DIV that needs to be positioned at the top of the container, another at the bottom and then the content needs to come through in the middle.
<div style="position:absolute; top:0; width:100%; height:40px"></div>
<div class="howto"></div>
<div style="position:absolute; bottom:0; width:100%; height:40px"></div>
So we don't know the height of the containing DIV. How without JS can the div with class howto have the height of the container DIV less the height of the absolute positioned div at the top and bottom so as to contain content between these 2 DIVs.
For what you wish to accomplish, this is one possible solution:
#tinkerbin: http://tinkerbin.com/QsaCPgR6
HTML:
<div class="container">
<div class="header"></div>
<div class="howto">
Has height set to auto. You may change that if you want to.
</div>
<div class="footer"></div>
</div>
CSS:
.container {
position: relative;
padding: 40px 0; /* top and bottom padding = .header and .footer padding*/
}
.header,
.footer {
position: absolute;
height: 40px;
width: 100%;
}
.header {
top: 0;
}
.footer {
bottom: 0;
}
.howto {
height: /*specifiy one if you wish to*/;
}
As far as I know there isn't a pure CSS way to do what you're trying to do without JS.
See this previous post on SA:
