Positioning at width 100% - css

I cannot work out why the div class pic-container won't align to the top of the page with the other 3.
Each of the child divs have a width of 25%.
I have a feeling I've missed something obvious..
Example here:
http://tinkerbin.com/NS7vagaq

Set
.pic-container{
font-size:0;
}
to display: inline;
So it is:
.pic-container{
font-size:0;
display:inline;
}
Since you have changed the structure of your code so the above no longer works try this instead:
<div class="pic_container">
<img src="images/1.jpg">
<span class="viewer">
<img src="images/2.jpg">
<img src="images/3.jpg">
</span>
<img src="images/4.jpg">
</div>
No special CSS needed.

In your example, you have the fourth identicon in a DIV separate from the other three. Since DIVs are block-level elements, the identicon in the second "pic-container" div will appear below the others.
If you move the fourth identicon also into the same div container as the first three, they line up.

Because divs are block level elements. Change it to inline and voila.
div {
display:inline;
}

Change the CSS to:
.pic-container{
font-size:0;
display: inline;
}

You could also float it.
.pic-container img { margin:0; padding: 0; float:left; }

Responsive divs width and height with css

I am trying to build a horizontal scrolling layout, composed of image blocks:
<div class="container">
<div class="item">
<img src="http://placehold.it/200x300">
</div>
<div class="item">
<img src="http://placehold.it/400x300">
</div>
<div class="item">
<img src="http://placehold.it/300x300">
</div>
</div>
I used display:inline-block and white-space: nowrap; properties to achieve this, and it does work but browsers don't seem to recompute block widths on resize?
Check here: https://jsfiddle.net/g597w3Lr/2/ and try resizing the browser..
Here is a screen grab to better understand what is my problem:
https://youtu.be/VxKo4gysc1o
At first all images are well positioned and i can scroll horizontally: perfect.
I then resize the browser
images are resizing, not the .item wrappers. White gaps appear :(
Basically i was expecting same feature as with vertical scrolling, i.e. adapting width depending on content size.
I actually dont even understand the logic here..
Is there any way to get over this?
Thanks!
Original answer
EDIT 2: Looking at your video I think the new approach is what you are looking for.
You have to display your divs with .item class as inline and remove your white-space: normal property.
.item {
display: inline;
height:100%;
}
Updated JSFiddle.
Explanation:
I am not an expert of CSS so if someone see some mistake please correct me.
When you display an element as inline-block as the official documentation says:
inline-block
Causes an element to generate an inline-level block container. The inside of an inline-block is formatted as a block box, and the element itself is formatted as an atomic inline-level box.
which means that the element that you display as inline-block acts like a block but you can set it inline (in the same line). This means that you can set a div (which is display: block as default) in a single line. You can also see it here:
The div element, short for division, is the block level generic container.
Also, inline elements cannot get height/width properties so this is the reason why when you display your divs with .item class as inline, they wrap the content but not get the height/width that they should correspond to take (from their parents in your case, as you put them with %).
If you display them as inline-block it does not changes anything about their default height/width properties. Just allows you to display them in a single line.
JSFiddle to see the three divs (inline/ inline-block / block, as default).
You will have to modify slightly your css
HTML
<div class="container">
<div class="item">
<img src="http://placehold.it/200x300">
</div>
<div class="item">
<img src="http://placehold.it/400x300">
</div>
<div class="item">
<img src="http://placehold.it/300x300">
</div>
</div>
CSS
html,body {
height:auto;
}
.container {
display: inline-block;
white-space: nowrap;
height:auto;
}
.item {
display: inline-block;
white-space: normal;
}
.item img {
width:100%;
height:100%;
}
Fiddle
check it see that's what you want ?
I manage your classes with border:solid 1px red;
and use width:100% in some classes.
also in class item:
width:100%;

css, float:left, keep text in own column

I have two float:left elements next to each other. When the parent element is too narrow to fit both texts on one line, then I want the text to go down to the next row, but each in their own "column". The parent width is flexible so I do not know what it will be.
http://jsfiddle.net/jsHCJ/1/ illustrates the problem and what I would like the solution to look like.
<div id = "page2">
<div class = "f1">
float 1
</div>
<div class = "f2">
float 2 and long
</div>
</div>
#page2 {width:110px; }
.f1{
background:pink;
float:left;
}
.f2{
background:yellow;
float:left;
}
Simple. Use display:table-cell; for both the divs.
What this will do is when the page shrinks or expands, the div will be at the same place and shall take the text to expand or shrink accordingly.
if i was you, i will use
display: table-cell
I've updated your fiddle
http://jsfiddle.net/jsHCJ/2/
You can change the css for #page 2 to like this
#page2 {
display: inline-block;
width: 150px;
}
try to add css in #page2
display: inline;
this will solve your problum

Text in floated div

The situation is:
HTML:
<div id="main">
<div id="a"></div>
<div id="b">Some Text</div>
</div>
CSS:
#a{
float:left;
width:800px;
height:150px;
background-color:#CCC;
}
#b{
width:1000px;
height:100px;
background-color:#9CC;
}
The result:
Why doesn't the text go behind div#a ? Why does "Some Text" behave as if div#a is still in the normal flow? How to force the text to act as expected (to go under div#a) ?
UPDATE:
When I mean under, I mean beneath on the Z axis, not on the Y. The div's should stay in this position, the only part that needs moving is the text.
http://www.w3.org/wiki/CSS/Properties/float
• leftThe element generates a block box that is floated to the left.
Content flows on the right side of the box, starting at the top.
The content of #b is acting as it should. It floats to the right side of the floated element preceding it.
Thus, if you want a 'layered' effect, use a CSS declaration that will provide it properly: position
Note: to keep #a positioned to it's parent, rather than <body>:
#main { position:relative }
#a { position:absolute }
If you float one element, the next element will "touch" it if there is place for it and it is a block level element (native or set by CSS).
If you want the elements "not" next to each other, than don't use float! Keep in mind that they have to be block level to go underneath each other.
Float does not "lift" element up, like for example position: absolute would do.
check out this:
http://css-tricks.com/absolute-positioning-inside-relative-positioning/
I think z-index statement may also be useful
ADDENDUM
<style type="text/css">
<!--
#id {
position:relative;
}
#a{
/* float:left; */
position: absolute;
top:0%;
left0%;
width:800px;
height:150px;
background-color:#CCC;
z-indez:1;
}
#b{
position: absolute;
top:0%;
left0%;
width:1000px;
height:100px;
background-color:#9CC;
z-index:-1;
}
does the trick (in chrome, ff, IE6 ) I couldn't get it to work until I gave id=b a negative z index trust thats helpful
The floated element floats to the left of non-floated elements like the blue element. To force the blue element below the floated element, you could apply clear: left; to it.
If both of your div ID's have float:left assigned then the second div #b will follow suit and go beneath #a
Add this code:
float:left;
to #b style
Give display block to both #a, #b

Unwanted margin on float

How can i fix the unwanted margin of the "right" div.
The right floated div is margined like you can see here:
JSFIDDLE: http://jsfiddle.net/s9Ssh/1/
The effect i wanted to achieve is to keep .mid layer always centered no matter the lenght of side div's text.
HTML:
<div class="main">
<div class="left">left</div>
<div class="mid">
Vpis podjetja
|
Iskanje
</div>
<div class="right">right</div>
CSS:
.main {
text-align:center;
width:100%;
}
.left {
float:left;
}
.mid {
}
.right {
float:right;
}
Maybe this will help: http://jsfiddle.net/sbhomra/s9Ssh/4/
I have basically absolutely positioned the left and right div's and set the middle div to stay in the center by using margin:0 auto.
Edit
Fixed padding on left and right div's, so they are not too close the side of the page.
http://jsfiddle.net/s9Ssh/3/
Move the right floated element before the middle element in the markup. It appears on a new row because the middle element isn't floated (and is a block level element).
Alternatively you can also float the middle element or set it to inline/inline-block.
EDIT: Although to clarify, if you float the mid element then you have to fiddle around with css a little since it will break your text-align. :P
try to add display: inline-block; to .mid element

Prevent linebreak after </div>

Is there a way to prevent a line break after a div with css?
For example I have
<div class="label">My Label:</div>
<div class="text">My text</div>
and want it to display like:
My Label: My text
display:inline;
OR
float:left;
OR
display:inline-block; -- Might not work on all browsers.
What is the purpose of using a div here? I'd suggest a span, as it is an inline-level element, whereas a div is a block-level element.
Do note that each option above will work differently.
display:inline; will turn the div into the equivalent of a span. It will be unaffected by margin-top, margin-bottom, padding-top, padding-bottom, height, etc.
float:left; keeps the div as a block-level element. It will still take up space as if it were a block, however the width will be fitted to the content (assuming width:auto;). It can require a clear:left; for certain effects.
display:inline-block; is the "best of both worlds" option. The div is treated as a block element. It responds to all of the margin, padding, and height rules as expected for a block element. However, it is treated as an inline element for the purpose of placement within other elements.
Read this for more information.
.label, .text {display: inline}
Although if you use that, you might as well change the div's to span's.
A DIV is by default a BLOCK display element, meaning it sits on its own line. If you add the CSS property display:inline it will behave the way you want. But perhaps you should be considering a SPAN instead?
<span class="label">My Label:</span>
<span class="text">My text</span>
try this (in CSS) for preventing line breaks in div texts:
white-space: nowrap;
The div elements are block elements, so by default they take upp the full available width.
One way is to turn them into inline elements:
.label, .text { display: inline; }
This will have the same effect as using span elements instead of div elements.
Another way is to float the elements:
.label, .text { float: left; }
This will change how the width of the elements is decided, so that thwy will only be as wide as their content. It will also make the elements float beside each other, similar to how images flow beside each other.
You can also consider changing the elements. The div element is intended for document divisions, I usually use a label and a span element for a construct like this:
<label>My Label:</label>
<span>My text</span>
div's are used to give structure to a website or to contain a lot of text or elements, but you seem to use them as label, you should use span, it will put both text next to eachother automatically and you won't need to wright css code for it.
And even if other people tell you to float the elements it's best that you just change the tags.
I don't think I've seen this version:
<div class="label">My Label:<span class="text">My text</span></div>
<div id="hassaan">
<div class="label">My Label:</div>
<div class="text">My text</div>
</div>
CSS:
#hassaan{ margin:auto; width:960px;}
#hassaan:nth-child(n){ clear:both;}
.label, .text{ width:480px; float:left;}
Try applying the clear:none css attribute to the label.
.label {
clear:none;
}
use this code for normal div
display: inline;
use this code if u use it in table
display: inline-table;
better than table
try float your div's in css
.label {
float:left;
width:200px;
}
.text {
float:left;
}
I have many times succeeded to get div's without line breaks after them, by playing around with the float css attribute and the width css attribute.
Of course after working out the solution you have to test it in all browsers, and in each browser you have to re-size the windows to make sure that it works in all circumstances.
display: inline-block worked for me
