I need inline DIVs to be spaced equally betweenn each other, and additionally between border and first (or last) DIV in the row.
I use solution found on Fluid width with equally spaced DIVs. It gives me equal spacing between DIVs, but left DIV sticks to the left border, and right DIV sticks to the right. I'd like it to be equally spaced from the borders as they are from each other.
UPDATE:
content DIVs are being created dynamically by Django, so I cannot say how many of them will be there in the line (between 1 and 4).
How can I create additional space on sides which will be equal to distance between DIVs?
Here is html:
<div class="container">
<div class="content">
<canvas width="130" height="130"></canvas>
</div>
<div class="content">
<canvas width="130" height="130"></canvas>
</div>
<div class="content">
<canvas width="130" height="130"></canvas>
</div>
</div>
and css:
div.container {
width: 100%;
text-align: justify;
}
div.content {
display: inline-block;
width: 20%;
margin: 0 auto;
}
div.container:after {
content: "";
width: 100%;
display: inline-block;
}
You could use box layout and padding of a certain percentage, like this (I just used 10% padding but you can adjust to suit your needs):

And right after asking the question, I've figured out the answer (how ironic?). I'll share it in case someone needs it.
What I've done was creating spacer DIVs with 0 width before first and last content DIV. Here is how it looks like:
HTML:
<div class="container">
<div class="spacer"></div>
<div class="content">
<canvas width="130" height="130"></canvas>
</div>
<div class="content">
<canvas width="130" height="130"></canvas>
</div>
<div class="content">
<canvas width="130" height="130"></canvas>
</div>
<div class="spacer"></div>
</div>
and css:
div.container {
width: 100%;
text-align: justify;
}
div.content {
display: inline-block;
width: 20%;
margin: 0 auto;
}
div.container:after {
content: "";
width: 100%;
display: inline-block;
}
div.spacer {
display: inline-block;
width: 0;
}

I've been searching for similar questions to these, but I couldn't find one, so I'm exposing my problem, hoping you could tell me what am I doing wrong and how to correct it.
I'm trying the accomplish the following scenario: two divs, side by side, using 100% of height and width, in which the left one can be scrollable. The right one has a few divs on top of each other, and the last one should have its contents scrollable too.
A picture can better describe the scenario:
The blue divs are the ones that can be scrollable, but the height of red ones is unknown.
I was able to partially accomplish this, but the problem is that the content of the last div is pulled down from the view in the same proportion as the height sum of the red divs, so when the user scrolls that blue div he won't be able to view the full content of it.
What can I do to solve this?
I also got a fiddle where this behavior can be reproduced: http://jsfiddle.net/d3dNG/3/
Thanks for any feedback on this.
HTML:
<div class="container">
<div id="left">
Left (first)<br />
[...]Left<br />
Left (last)<br />
</div>
<div id="right">
<div id="header1">Header 1</div>
<div id="header1">Header 2</div>
<div id="header1">Header 3</div>
<div id="rightContent">
Right (first)<br />
Right<br />
[...]
Right (last)<br />
</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
html, body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
}
.container {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
background: pink;
}
#left {
float: left;
width: 100px;
height: 100%;
overflow-y: auto;
background: gold;
}
#right {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
#rightContent {
height: 100%;
overflow-y: auto;
background: lime;
}
Since you will not know what the size of #header1 you can go about this by using javascript or jQuery.
(Make sure to only use ids once on your page since they are unique, #header1 is used 3 times)
The html I changed:
<div class="headParent">
<div class="header1">Header 1</div>
<div class="header1">Header 2</div>
<div class="header1">Header 3</div>
</div>
The little jQuery I wrote:
function rightSize() {
var hH = $('.headParent').height(), // grabs the `#header1`'s parents height
mH = $('#rightContent').height() - hH; // minus the height from the `#rightContent`
$('#rightContent').css({height: mH});
}
rightSize();
Finally, a fiddle: Demo
Even once there is more of the .header1 the #rightContent will still adapt correctly to fit the content.
Try this:
HTML
<div class="container">
<div id="left">
Left (first)<br />
[...]Left<br />
Left (last)<br />
</div>
<div id="rightOne">
<div id="header1">Header 1</div>
<div id="header1">Header 2</div>
<div id="header1">Header 3</div>
</div>
<div id="rightTwo">
<div id="rightContent">
Right (first)<br />
Right<br />
[...]
Right (last)<br />
</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS
#rightOne {
height: 16%;
width: 100%;
}
#rightTwo {
height: 84%;
width: 100%;
}
I've updated your fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/d3dNG/4/

I'm attempting to center two divs by wrapping an outer div and centering it :
<div style="margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;">
But the divs are remaining left aligned. How can I center these divs on page ?

<div style="margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;">
<div id="block">

div is a block level element by default so it will take up 100% of horizontal space if you do not assign some width to it, so you need to assign some width to your container
<div style="margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto; width: 300px;">
Here, you can just set the width accordingly. Also avoid using inline CSS.
Your CSS is lil sloppy, for example margin-right:100px; is not required, also, you can use shorthand like
margin: 0 auto; = margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;
Demo (Added a red border just to show the boundaries)
Note: You are floating your elements, so make sure you clear your floats either by using <div style="clear: both;"></div> which I've already done in the demo provided, else you can also use the snippet below to self clear the parent like
.clear:after {
display: table;
clear: both;
content: "";
}
A couple things I want to point out in this post:
You have set Id="block" in two different instances. Id's are meant to be unique. If you want a reusable identifier you should be using classes.
Inline styling should be avoided when possible. In this case there is no need to set inline styling on the parent div.
There is more then one way to center div's
I am going to leave this link here: http://thenewcode.com/723/Seven-Ways-of-Centering-With-CSS
This would be my solution:
html:
<div class="container">
<div class="block">
<span>Test</span>
</div>
<div class="block">
<span>Test 2</span>
</div>
</div>
css:
.container {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
}
.block {
display: flex;
background: grey;
width: 30%;
height: 200px;
border: 1px solid #777;
margin: 5px;
}
Give a width to that container.
#outerdiv{
margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;
width:500px;
}
<div align="center">
<!-- -staff ->
</div>
margin:auto; doesn't work unless the width is specified...
<div style="margin:auto;width:100px;">
your content here. [Replace the width with your choice]
</div>
Giving width and margin auto will centralise the content in specified width.
<div style="margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;width:400px;">//give variable width here..Normally 1000 to 1018..
<div id="block">
<img height="50" style="max-width: 50px;background-position: top left;" src="http://socialmediababe.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/administrator.jpg" />

I am trying to align the elements in the head portion of a webpage properly.
There are three elements placed inside a header div:
The site logo (as an image) wrapped in an anchor tag should be left justified.
A div that contains a bunch of vertically aligned menu elements right justified.
A form containing a search box and a go button. This must be centered horizontally in the page and show between to logo on the left and the menu items on the right.
All three elements should be justified to the bottom of the header div.
I have been wrestling with this but nothing seems to work. Can you please help? Thanks!
<div style="float: right;">
<ul>
<li>Menu item</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div style="float: left;">
<img style="border: 0;" src="something.png" />
</div>
<div style="width: 300px; margin: 0 auto;">
Search box
</div>
Just a quick mockup.
UPDATE: using table/table-cell trick to allow vertical-align: bottom;
You need to wrap your manu, logo and searchbox into <div> with display: table-cell; css rule.
The markup:
<div class="table header">
<div class="table-cell">
<div class="logo"> </div>
</div>
<div class="table-cell">
<div class="searchbox"> </div>
</div>
<div class="table-cell">
<div class="menu"> <br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/></div>
</div>
</div>
and css:
.table {
display: table; /* our outer contaner should behave like table; */
width: 100%; /* set width to 100% */
}
.table-cell {
display: table-cell; /* our internal wrapper should behave like table cell to allow vertical-align */
vertical-align: bottom; /* align all elements vertical */
background: yellow; /* for debug purposes */
}
.logo {
float: left;
width: 100px;
background: green;
}
.menu {
float: right;
width: 100px;
background: red;
}
.searchbox {
margin: 0 auto;
width: 100px;
background: blue;
}
Complete example: http://jsfiddle.net/EREmH/4/
I have a fixed container and inside of that is an additional container which houses a number of DIVs based on user choices. I need these additional DIVs to line up horizontally and provide horizontal scrolling (but not vertical scrolling).
Such as this:
[x] [x] [x]
Essentially, my setup looks like this:
<div id="container">
<div id="second">
<div class="final"><img src="..." /></div> //Repeat as needed from user
</div>
</div>
The CSS breaks down as such:
#container {
position: fixed;
top: 200px;
left: 0px;
height: 500px;
width: 100%;
}
#second {
height: 500px;
}
#final {
display: inline-block;
float: left;
}
This setup works fine in Firefox however it continues to break in IE7. All of the "#final" divs are stacking vertically:
[x]
[x]
[x]
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Several problems here. For a start:
<div id="container">
<div id="second">
<div class="final"><img src="..." /></div> //Repeat as needed from user
<div style="clear:both"></div>
</div>
</div>
You should have a DIV after your floats that remains constant, telling your browser not to float any subsequent elements (clear:both).
And you have several "final" DIVs, so they be in a CSS class, not an ID.
.final {
float: left;
}
That should do it!
Edit: That will fix your HTML/CSS errors, at least. But I've just noticed that you want the document to scroll right. The only way to do that is to set the width of the #container div to be wider than the sum of all the widths of the .final divs. Otherwise your browser will attempt to push everything "down".
Try this......
<div id="container">
<div id="second">
<div class="final"><img src="..." /></div>
<div class="final"><img src="..." /></div>
<div class="final"><img src="..." /></div>
<div class="final"><img src="..." /></div>
</div>
</div>
<style>
#container {
position: fixed;
top: 200px;
left: 0px;
height: 500px;
width: 100%;
}
#second {
height: 500px;
}
.final {
float: left;
}
I am trying to figure out how to create 3 divs and have them lineup in the same row.
Having 1st and 3rd one fixed width at 100px and have the 2nd (middle) one audo adjust its width in case of browser resize.
<div>
<div id="d1"> content 1</div>
<div id="d2"> content 2</div>
<div id="d3"> content 3</div>
</div>
thanks,
You have tp use floats to align the left and right frame. But for this you have to reorder the divs as shown below, and set the margins for the middle div.
<style type="text/css">
#d1 {
float: left;
}
#d2 {
float: right;
}
#d3 {
margin-left: 100px;
margin-right: 100px;
}
</style>
<div>
<div id="d1"> content 1</div>
<div id="d2"> content 2</div>
<div id="d3"> content 3</div>
</div>
Edit
Thanks to Leniel Macaferi for pointing out an error. The correct order of the divs has to be floating divs first, then non floating divs. Therefore I corrected the code (exchanged div d2 and div d3).
http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/ultimate-3-column-holy-grail-pixels.htm
Strike that, many extra divs to ensure all columns are equal height. This may be what you're looking for. All explained in this excellent article: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/holygrail
Div is a block-level element, so its a nice option to handle with the help of its Display Property.
<div id="d1" style="display:inline-block; width:100px;">content1</div>
<div id="d2" style="display:inline">content2</div>
<div id="d3" style="display:inline-block; width:100px;">content3</div>
Just putting this out there as a modern, clean solution: use calc.
Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/bg7KS/
#d2 {
width: 200px; /* fallback older browsers */
width: -webkit-calc(100% - 200px);
width: -moz-calc(100% - 200px);
width: calc(100% - 200px);
}
nvm this is old, i was gonna post what worked for me
<style type="text/css">
#d1 {
float: left;
margin-left: 50px;
}
#d2 {
float: center;
margin-right: 5px;
}
#d3 {
float: left;
margin-right: 5px;
}
</style>
<div>
<div id="d1"> content 1</div>
<div id="d3"> content 3</div>
<div id="d2"> content 2</div>
</div>
