In IE8, I am trying to display 4 child div's side by side withing a parent div. I would like the parent div to overflow and scroll horizontally and for the child div's to be next to each other horizontally as well. Thanks
HTML:
<div id="a">
<div class="b">One</div>
<div class="b">Two</div>
<div class="b">Three</div>
<div class="b">Four</div>
</div>
and CSS:
#a{
position:relative;
height:130px;
width:800px;
background:purple;
overflow:auto;
}
.b{
position:relative;
display:inline-block;
height:100px;
width:400px;
background:red;
border:1px solid #000000;
float:left;
}
Here are my suggestions:
Use classes for repeated elements. ids are unique, but classes can be used multiple times.
Use inline-block instead of float, not in addition.
Set white-space:nowrap on the container to prevent the children
from wrapping.
<div id="a">
<div class="b">One</div>
<div class="b">Two</div>
<div class="b">Three</div>
<div class="b">Four</div>
</div>
#a{
height:130px;
width:800px;
background:purple;
overflow:auto;
white-space:nowrap;
}
.b{
height:100px;
width:400px;
background:red;
border:1px solid #000000;
display:inline-block;
}

Here's a floated variant:
<div class="a">
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="b">One</div>
<div class="b">Two</div>
<div class="b">Three</div>
<div class="b">Four</div>
</div>
.a{
height: 130px;
width: 800px;
overflow: scroll;
background: purple;
}
.wrapper{
width: 1608px;
}
.b{
height: 100px;
width: 400px;
background: red;
border: 1px solid #000000;
float: left;
}

Bit changes in your css code,
#background {
width:530px;
display: table-cell; <!--just to make it appear as a table-cell so than we can use vertical align and text-align on it-->
vertical-align:middle; <!--just to align in the middle vertically-->
height:160px;
background-color:gray;
overflow:hide;
padding:5px;
text-align: center; <!--will align it horizontally center-->
}
.box {
background-color:white;
width:160px;
display: inline-block;
height:150px;
border: 1px solid blue;

I need help, I have a 4 div elements, three of them have fixed width, one of them needs to be with auto width. Second element needs to have variable width.
For example:
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="first">
</div>
<div id="second">
</div>
<div id="third">
</div>
<div id="fourth">
</div>
</div>
Css:
#first,#second,#third,#fourth{
float:left;
}
#second{
width:auto;
overflow:hidden;
}
#first,#third,#fourth{
width: 200px;
}
Thanks for help
This can be achieved using display: table-cell jsfiddle
CSS
#wrapper .item{
display: table-cell;
width: 150px;
min-width: 150px;
border: 1px solid #777;
background: #eee;
text-align: center;
}
#wrapper #second{
width: 100%
}
Markup
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="first" class="item">First
</div>
<div id="second" class="item">Second
</div>
<div id="third" class="item">Third
</div>
<div id="fourth" class="item">Fourth
</div>
</div>
Update
Float version
CSS
#wrapper div{background:#eee; border: 1px solid #777; min-width: 200px;}
#first{
float: left;
}
#wrapper #second{
width: auto;
background: #ffc;
border: 1px solid #f00;
min-width: 100px;
overflow: hidden;
}
#first, #third, #fourth{
width: 200px;
}
#third, #fourth{float: right;}
Markup, Move #second to end
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="first">First</div>
<div id="third">Third</div>
<div id="fourth">Fourth</div>
<div id="second">Second</div>
</div>
i think you might be looking for this one:
This is for your reference if you are having such a thing then you can do the trick with this, i exactly don't know how your css looks like but this is basic idea.
Demo Here
CSS
#wrapper
{
width:960px;
}
#first
{
float:left;
width:240px;
}
#second
{
width:240px;
float:left;
}
#third
{
float:left;
width:240px
}
Here your last div width will be set automatically.
Using CSS, I want to horizontally center two "boxes" I have within a div. The boxes are absolutely positioned.
Here is the JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/p4sA3/8/
How would I achieve this without using specific widths?
HTML:
<button id="change">Change</button>
<div id="total-wrap">
<div id="hello-wrap" class="bunch">
<div id="box">
<p> Hello, this is text1 </p>
</div>
<div id="box">
<p> Hello, this is text2 </p>
</div>
</div>
<div id="goodbye-wrap" class="bunch">
<div id="box">
<p> Goodbye, this is text1 </p>
</div>
<div id="box">
<p> Goodbye, this is text2 </p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
#total-wrap {
border:1px solid #000;
height:500px;
}
#box {
position:relative;
display:inline-block;
width:300px;
height:100px;
background-color:yellow;
margin:10px;
}
.bunch {
position: absolute;
text-align:center;
}
I would do it with left:0; and right:0 as they are absolutely positioned.
DEMO http://jsfiddle.net/kevinPHPkevin/p4sA3/19/
.bunch {
position: absolute;
text-align:center;
left:0;
right:0;
}
Solution:
#total-wrap {
border:1px solid #000;
height:500px;
}
#box {
display:inline-block;
width:300px;
height:100px;
background-color:yellow;
margin:10px;
text-align:center;
}
.bunch {
text-align:center;
}
<div id="wrap">
<div id="left">Box1</div>
<div id="right">Box2</div>
</div>
#wrap {
background: #e7e7e7;
padding: 40px;
text-align: center;
width: auto;
}
#left, #right {
background: yellow;
display: inline-block;
padding: 20px;
}
Is this what you want?
#box {
position:relative;
display:inline-block;
width:100px;
height:100px;
background-color:yellow;
margin:10px;
}
DEMO: http://jsfiddle.net/p4sA3/11/
The thing is that as long the sum of the widths exceeds the container, the second div will be positioned beneath the first one
In this other demo I didn't use width: http://jsfiddle.net/p4sA3/13/
If you want to use jQuery:
Demo
keepCentered = function() {
$('#hello-wrap').css({'margin-left':($('#total-wrap').width()-$('#hello-wrap').width())/2});
$('#goodbye-wrap').css({'margin-left':($('#total-wrap').width()-$('#goodbye-wrap').width())/2});
}
$(document).ready(keepCentered);
$(window).bind('resize', keepCentered);
i have trying to achieve this

its not coming that way.. so what should i do?
this is my complete code ... this is what i am trying but failing to do it ... so guys pls take a look at this and tell me my fault
guys i am still struggling with this
I hope you'll find this example useful. Notice that, as you said, the size is fixed but still fluid relative to it's parent by using percentage.
HTML
<div id="example">
<div class="box01"></div>
<div class="box02"></div>
<div class="box03"></div>
</div>
CSS
#example {
width: 400px;
height: 400px;
}
div.box01 {
float: left;
width: 20%;
height: 100%;
background-color: #eee;
}
div.box02 {
float: right;
min-width: 100px;
min-height: 100px;
background-color: #ccc;
}
div.box03 {
float: right;
width: 80%;
min-height: 100px;
background-color: #aaa;
}
Code Example
The trick is to realize you need more divs than just those three. That is to say, divs 2 and 3 need to have a parent that is a sibling of div 1. Try something like this: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/rLDqc
HTML:
<div id="left">This is your div on the left</div>
<div id="center">
<div id="main">Hello, this is the third div</div>
<div id="right">This is the div in the top right</div>
</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
CSS:
#left{
width:30%;
background:red;
height:100px;
}
#center{
width:70%;
background:blue;
height:100px;
}
#left, #center{
float:left;
}
#right{
position:relative;
display:inline;
float:right;
}
#main{
margin-top: 57px;
float: left;
}
.clear{
clear:both;
}
You may do something like this:
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="div1"></div><div class="div2"></div>
<div class="div3"></div>
</div>
and CSS:
div{border:solid 1px black;}
.div1 {
width:50px;
height:100px;
float:left;
}
.div2 {
width:50px;
height:18px;
float:right;
}
.div3 {
width:250px;
height:80px;
float:left;
}
.wrapper{
width:304px;
border:none;
}
Demo
Or maybe even something like this: http://jsfiddle.net/4YX9H/1/ - width and height of div2 may be almost any (it just must be not wider than its parent)
#div1 {
width: 100%;
}
#div2, #div3, #div4 {
width: 33.3%;
float: left;
}
<div id="div1">
<div id="div2"></div><div id="div3"></div><div id="div4></div>
</div>
Change width of inside divs according to your needs.
Most confusing job in web designing for me is to align divs like these but if you understand every aspect of float, display and some other properties important for layout designing then you can easily create such layouts.
Check this fiddle for an example
http://jsfiddle.net/DeepakKamat/xQKXz/1/
The HTML :
<div class="container">
<div id="div1">Div 1</div>
<div id="div2">Div 2</div>
<div id="div3">Div 3</div>
</div>
The CSS :
.container {backgroundcolor:yellow;display:block;width:400px;height:150px;padding:10px;}
.container div {margin:2px;color:white;}
#div1 {background-color:blue;width:20%;height:100%;border:2px dashed white;float:left;}
#div2 {background-color:green;display:inline-block;width:20%;height:70px;float:right;border:2px dashed white;}
#div3 {background-color:red;display:inline-block;width:76%;height:48%;border:2px dashed white;}
I hope this helps you.
Not sure what is the values of your div width and height.

Please refer to this handy diagram I drew:
div1's height is unknown. div3's width is fluid; it should never overlap div2. Both div1 and div2 have the same width and are horizontally centered via margin: auto. How can I position div3 so that it aligns to the right side of body (no matter how wide body is) while sharing vertical position with div2? (Using CSS)
.div1{
margin:0 auto;
width:100px;
height:50px;
border:5px solid #995555;
}
.div2{
width:100px;
margin:0 auto;
border:5px solid #aaaa55;
height:200px;
}
.div3{
float:right;
width:50px;
height:100px;
border:5px solid cyan;
}
<div class="div1">div1</div>
<div class="div3">div3</div>
<div class="div2">div2</div>

A simple div grid would do the trick:
http://jsfiddle.net/NUGPv/
<div class="con">
<div class="lft">div 1</div>
<div class="rgt"></div>
</div>
<div>
<div class="lft">div 2</div>
<div class="rgt">div 3</div>
</div>
.con { overflow:hidden; }
.lft { width:100px; height:100px; float:left; }
.rgt { width:100px; height:100px; float:left; }
Simply leave the the top right cell empty.
