I needed to develop my own grid layout. I put my code here: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/fznyw
Problem is - grid should be 12 columns. Widths are in percents. But I can't get my last element to stay in a row. What did I do wrong?
I tried using margin-left:-30px on .container, but it didn't helped. Only solution was, to make a class .first-in-row with margin-left:0, but, since those blocks will be reordered, I can't use this solution.
I changed percentages a bit. I am not sure if there is better way of sorting those grids but I managed to find percentages for some of them, you could use this and finish all 12.

I am new to Bourbon / Neat framework, and the past 2 days i've been setting my environment up, but i am having issues configuring the Grid.
The issue is that no matter how much i try, there are some spacing issue when it comes to the grid, there is a small space in between columns in the grid, which is giving me a headache, and i have no idea what is causing it.
As you can see from the image, the right column, is slightly on the left, is this a common occurrence in neat?
Thank you in advance.
If you are using the visual grid, this can be off by a few pixels. Please see the documentation here:
http://thoughtbot.github.io/neat-docs/latest/#visual-grid
The overlaid grid may be few pixels off depending on the browser's
rendering engine and pixel rounding algorithm.
Hope this helps
I want to start a blog design from scratch as a week-ends project, but I have problem to see how I can render it via CSS.
In a CSS grid system you can define the size of a column based on the number of elements e.g. I have 12 based grid and I can decide to have 2 columns: 2 of the size of 6 or one of 5 and one of 7.
[EDIT] I found a website example that does what I would like to achieve: http://www.by-form.net/
Thanks~
The thing about vertical sizing is that it should grow as your content grows, that's why grid systems only include rows with 12 columns, because you'll need your page to grow as the content in it does. As stated before (and I'm not sure if you meant pure CSS grid system when you asked or if you were referring to bootstraps grid system or something similar), you can use a lot of different frameworks to achieve this like Bootstrap or Materialize or even create one yourself (which is a great exercise if your objective is to understand how this works, but not so much if you want to be productive about your project).
Thank you for your answers guys,
I found 2 ways to answer that issue:
the masonry grid Javasript layout that handle very closely to the original idea of how I wanted to handle it.
or a nested grid (a grid within a grid), e.g. profoundgrid
I don't have much knowledge about this but using bootstrap css you can achive the grid system.

Your grid in the image is very complex.
I don't think you can achieve a layout like this without any rows or columns that is flexible enough.
What I mean by that is, that you surely want the boxes to grow when the content gets bigger. This could be a big problem cause there are so many dependencies to next and previous columns.
I wrote an answer to a similar question showing a variety of CSS Techniques to do layouts. Check it out, it might be helpful here.
Anyway, if you reduce some dependencies and know exactly what the order of the content should be and look like, it would be much easier.
I am working on a web site using Bootstrap 3 to design it. I have come across a situation where the the grid system is not working as expected.
I am trying to fit in the HTML5 logo in the last line where I have set the class to visible-xs-6 col-xs-offset-3. According to me, this should create three sections where the first section should be an offset of 3 columns which is showing up fine as you can see in the image, but after that I believe that the HTML5 logo should be somewhere in the middle section and another 3 column section after that. Isn't that logical? But for some reason the second section is taking up the whole row after the offset. What am i doing wrong?
I don't believe the visible-xs-* classes are used to set the number of columns, only the display:* property. The only options are block, inline and inline-block. So your classes should be...
class="col-xs-6 col-xs-offset-3 visible-xs-block"
I made a silly mistake. I forgot to wrap the columns in a <div class="row">. And moreover I used .hidden-sm .hidden-md and .hidden-lg classes just to be extra sure.
And plus I made another silly mistake of assuming that the * in visible-xs-* means the number of columns instead of the options given in responsive utilities.
If anyone has a similar problem please take a look at Bootstrap's responsive utilities
Anyway thank you anyone who tried to help. I will accept this as an answer to close the question.
I'm trying to create a three column layout in CSS only with fixed left and right columns and a fluid central column. I have searched online but nothing has worked when I implement it. I don't know whether this is particularly relevant but my central column is (or contains, I've tried both) an iframe. This seems to be contributing to the complication.
Have you tried using an 960 grid ?
http://960.gs/
Otherwise there are many examples for using fixed and fluid grid layouts in the web:

This is the one you are looking for.
Btw: Please provide some of your code, or do a jsfiddle about it !
Whenever you resize a datagrid by hand (not via code), the last column seems to retain most of the width. What's worse, whenever you extend it and shrink it to a large degree, the other columns can get smushed. Here's a perfect example:
The ideal solution would distribute width equally or in proportion to the length of the text. In addition, if would avoid covering text when it's not necessary. Now, setting the width to 0.5 in the example above does seem to alleviate the issue, but not prevent it entirely.
What I'd also like to know if there are any well polished, custom datagrids out there that solve this. From trying to find a solution, I suspect the only solutions available are more ad-hoc.
I know two ways to avoid this problem.
1) Use List with special item renderer, which simulates columns (say HBox separated with rules), and header, which repeats the layout of item renderer. It's not very elegant solutions, but the resize is quite predictable. Also you can easily add sorting feature (by adding buttons to header), but I'm not sure if column resize is possible to implement here.
2) Use spark s:DataGrid from SDK 4.x. It hasn't got such resize problems AFAIK.
