I'm trying to place three divs side by side.
The first div has a fixed width and needs to be against the left side of the screen (ie: float:left;).
The next div also has a fixed width and needs to be against the right side of the screen (ie: float:right;).
And the last div needs to fill the space in between them and adjust based on the width of the browser window.
When a certain minimum width is reached for this last div in the middle I need it to stop getting smaller and have scroll bars appear in the browser.
Is this possible to achieve? If so, how?
try this link. basically, there are 3 divs, 2 of them which placed on the side are fixed width absolute position div while the center is a normal div with margin.

I have created a div resizable from two directions ie. East and West and facing following
Issues:
while stretching div component from left, the position of component is changing ie. reaching to top side of the specified container.
2.while stretching div component from right,i am able to stretch it to half of the specified container only but not the full container.
3.while repositioning the stretched div,the size of top and width are increasing inversely proportionally.
Requirement:
I want div component to resize from left and right in the same row with no increase in height or top.
Please suggest something!!
As of now I have div A inside of div B, and A's height is set to 100% because I want it to cover everything from the start of it to the bottom of its parent div.
However, having its height set to 100% doesn't perform the way I was hoping (that it would simply span all the way from its starting point to the bottom of its parent), instead it sets its height to exactly match its parent div. Since div A starts a few hundred pixels down inside div B, this causes div A to overflow an extra few hundred pixels below div B.
Example below:
The real trick is that div B needs to be able to expand vertically depending on its content, while div A continues to fill the area from its vertical start to the bottom of its parent.
Is there some other method to consider? I understand that I could use the calc unit, however, calc doesn't work on safari up until safari 6, and that would rule out a lot of mobile devices.
I might be misunderstanding what you're trying to achieve here but wouldn't a
overflow:hidden;
on the Div B work out?
So here's what I want to do:
Let there be a fixed size column. The height of the column should take up the size of the parent.
Inside the column I have two divs, stacked vertically. The width of both of them takes up the column width. The height of the first div is fixed size. The second however is variable, taking up whatever remains from the parent. Moreover its content is variable. If its content is to large a vertical scroll bar should appear.
How can I do this with HTML and CSS?
Here's a quick JSFiddle POC.
My problem is that if I set the second divs height as auto it will stretch outside its parent. If I set it 100% it will be again larger than its parent. It's important that the scroll bar to appear only for the second div, not the main div itself.
Thanks,
Here is what I would do:
http://jsfiddle.net/Tfzhm/1/
Add position:relative to the container div, and make the scrollable div position:absolute. The top should be set to the same amout of pixel as the height of the first stacked div. And finally, set bottom:0px so it gets to the bottom line of the containing div.
I would like to know if I can float the div like this using CSS. What I would like to do is to move the DIV which is CSS DIV 2 under the CSS DIV 1 to the right when reducing the windows size. See the screenshot below:
This is how three DIV would display on bigger windows size. First DIV is at the top left corner, the second DIV is under the first DIV. Then the third DIV is on the top right.
When I resize the browser windows, the third DIV which has wider width will drop to the botton under the first DIV, and the second DIV will automatcially move to the top right corner to fill in the space.
Anyone think that this is possible to do it by using CSS, and might not need to use JS or others?
Thanks
I'd say that change is achieved either by changing from a columnar layout to a row layout, or else by swapping the order of the two elements. Either way, it requires JavaScript.
To summarize, I'm trying to get a "resizable page" both in the height and in the width of the window. I've two fixed blocs too. One on the top of the page and an other on the left (like the Flow app for example).
As you can see there, I'm trying to make the yellow part of the screen resizable (css only) but I get some trouble with the height part. The scrolling zone is always counting the height of the top bloc (the red one).
Is there a way to make it javascript free?
The div with id="container" has a height of 100%. This means 100% of the containing id='wrapper' div. One possible solution is to make the heights:
red part: 10% of the total height
blue+yellow (i.e. the "wrapper" div): 90% height
This would mean the "container" wrapper should nicely fill up those 90%.
Edit: only drawback would be that the red part is no longer a fixed hight pixel-wise.
