I have a main div id called #main and then a list ul li...
Here is the css:
#main {
display:block;
}
#main ul {
list-style: none outside none;
margin: 0 0 20px;
padding: 0;
}
etc...
The problem is that when the content grows I get the issue shown on the attached image:
Add overflow: auto; in your main
#main {
display:block;
overflow: auto;
}

I'm trying to create a menu which will have an image in the middle of it. For example three links to the left & three to the right of the image, each menu item also has to list all child pages.
The parent level menu items have to dynamically update the text based on what has been entered in the CMS but the user doesn't have to be able to reorder or add / remove items from the menu.
What is the best way of going about doing the above? My initial thought was to hard code all the pages & use get_permalink() to get the URLs encase they change but this wouldn't take all the requirements listed above into account.
Here Is Ans that you want. for details follow link
In Below example logo is outside from ul class but then also you can set logo in between li class. so logo in middle of menu.

you can also do it with left and right different menu..but method 1 is best for wp

I'm trying to center and unordered list perfectly with the title of my website the title on top with the UL elements centered underneath.
The problem is that it does center, but not perfectly aligned with the overhead title. It is slightly to the right.
Here is my code:
.title{
text-align: center;
}
nav{
display: block;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
width: 50%;
background: blue;
}
li {
text-align: center;
display: inline-block;
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
background: red;
}
ul {
padding: 0;
}
The slight right-side bias is because of the default padding the entire list gets, not the individual list items. Setting it to zero eliminates the unnecessary offset.
I have to guess the HTML, but most likely you have a <ul> inside your <nav> element. Use this CSS:
nav > ul { margin-left: 0; padding-left: 0; }
I'm having an issue with centering some li's that are inside of a ul element. Here is the relevant code:
ul.nav {
width: 1000px;
margin: 0 auto;
list-style-type: none;
}
.nav li {
float: left;
width: 300px;
}
#government {
clear: left;
}
I've been trying various things to make it work like making the li's have text-align: center; or giving them margin: 0 auto; but nothing seems to be working. I've spent hours trying to figure out the problem, so any help would be very much appreciated. Here is a screenshot of what my situation looks like:
I'm trying to get the li's to be horizontally centered inside that ul. I can't just do the math and set the margin because the width will be dyanmic and probably won't be the same for each li.
This should give you a good start:
ul.nav {
width: 1000px;
margin: 0 auto;
list-style-type: none;
text-align: center; /* to center horizontally child inline elements */
}
.nav li {
display: inline-block; /* Set to inline-block instead of float: left */
width: 300px;
}
Update
To get into to rows, make your ul element have a smaller width.
e.g.
ul.nav {
width: 800px; /* Smaller width */
margin: 0 auto;
list-style-type: none;
text-align: center; /* to center horizontally child inline elements */
padding-left: 0;
}
Fiddle
I have searched extensively and seen numerous examples on how to vertical-align text using the vertical-align property and the line-height property. However, all my efforts seem to bear no fruit as I am unable to get my text to align vertically. How do I do vertically align text to be centered? The height properties are not fixed so I can't use line-height.
HTML
<nav>
<ul>
<li>Login</li>
<li>Register</li>
<li>Programmes Offered</li>
</ul>
</nav>
CSS
nav
{
height: 30%;
width: 100%;
}
nav ul
{
height: 100%;
margin: 0px;
}
nav ul li
{
height: 33%;
width: 100%;
vertical-align: middle;
}
you may use a pseudo element displayed as an inline-box using full height of li and vertical-aligned to midlle. DEMO
body, html {
height:100%; /* needed for demo */
}
nav {
height: 50%; /* increased for demo */
width: 100%;
}
nav ul {
height: 100%;
margin: 0px;
}
nav ul li {
height: 33%;
box-shadow:inset 0 0 0 1px; /* show me li , for demo */
}
nav ul li:before {
content:'';
height:100%;
display:inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
edit
If you also reset display and vertical-align on <a>, links can be spread on a few lines (demo below):
body,
html {
height: 100%;
}
nav {
height: 70%; /* height set for snippet demo purpose, could be really too much */
width: 100%;
}
nav ul {
height: 100%; /* will follow height, inherit height value , set in nav if any avalaible */
margin: 0px;
}
nav ul li {
height: 33%;
/* see me and my center*/
box-shadow: inset 0 0 0 1px;
background:linear-gradient(to top, rgba(0,0,0,0.1) 50%, rgba(0,0,0,0.2) 50%);
}
nav ul li:before {
content: '';
height: 100%;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
a {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
<nav>
<ul>
<li>Login
</li>
<li>Register
</li>
<li>Programmes<br/> Offered
</li>
</ul>
</nav>
If you can use flexbox, you can get away with the following css:
CSS
ul li a {
display:flex; // Enables flexbox
justify-content: center; // Center on main axis
align-items: center; // Center on cross axis
}
Update ( using auto margins )
You can also do it like this:
ul li { display:flex }
li a { margin: auto }
/* These rules are just to make things easier to see. */
nav {
margin: 0 auto;
margin-top: 5rem;
border: 1px dotted green;
width: 100%;
}
ul {
padding: 0;
display: flex;
justify-content: space-around;
}
li {
height: 3rem;
padding: 2rem;
border: 1px dotted red;
}
/* Here are what I am trying to illustrate */
ul li {
display: flex;
}
a {
margin: auto;
/* or adjust them one by one, by targeting
the ones you want and setting
using each margin like this:
margin-top: auto;
margin-right: auto;
margin-bottom: auto;
margin-left: auto;
*/
}
<nav>
<ul>
<li>Login</li>
<li>Register</li>
<li>Programmes Offered</li>
</ul>
</nav>
vertical-align aligns inline elements with their siblings.. unless used in a table cell.
I don't think there's a by-the-book way of vertically aligning.. but this should work:
D E M O
nav ul li
{
background:#f1f1f1;
height: 33%;
width: 100%;
border-top:1px solid #e0e0e0;
}
nav ul li a
{
display:block;
position:relative;
top:50%;
-webkit-transform:translate(0,-50%);
-moz-transform:translate(0,-50%);
transform:translate(0,-50%);
}
Have you tried with
nav ul li a
{
height: 33%;
width: 100%;
vertical-align: 5px; //(you can make it 10px or -10px, just so it fits your style)
}
Your text is within the a tag, so adding a in the css may solve your problem :)
I'm brand new to this coding stuff so please go easy on me ;)
I'm trying to make the top nav on this website stretch to fit the width of what I understand to be the "container" of the website which is 900px wide. I can't for the life of me remove what appears to be padding or margins to the left and right of the nav. See code below.
Site screenshot here: http://img560.imageshack.us/img560/9479/237c.png
Right now I'm just cleverly making adjustments to padding to make the nav somewhat centered on the page, but ultimately it would look much better if it met up with the edge of the containter like everything else.
Thx for any help.
/* Navigation

#topnav {

Try with

margin-right:auto;

Hope this helped. Cheers.
I would say to add a main container div that will enclose all your existing html, and then define a css for it with margin-left/right as auto :
<head>
.......
<style>
#mainContainer {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
</style>
</head>
<html>
<body>
<div id="mainContainer">
............................
............................
............................
</div>
</body>
</html>
Hi if you are new on this you need to know that for default all element tags like ul, p or body has for default some values on properties like margin and padding. What you need is first work on reset those values in CSS to avoid issues and make more easier your cutomization. In your case the ul has some properties:
ul {
display: block;
list-style-type: disc;
margin-before: 1em;
margin-after: 1em;
margin-start: 0;
margin-end: 0;
padding-start: 40px;
}
You can use this simple global reset with * as the global selector :
* {
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
Or search for some complex resets like this one.
Then with values on 0 you can customize in a better way your elements:
#topnav ul {
list-style: none;
float: left;
text-align: center;
width:100%;
}
