Bootstrap Element 100% Width - css
I want to create alternating 100% colored blocks. An "ideal" situation is illustrated as an attachment, as well as the current situation.
Desired setup:
Currently:
My first idea was to create an div class, give it a background color, and give it 100% width.
.block {
width: 100%;
background: #fff;
}
However, you can see that this obviously doesn't work. It's confined to a container area. I tried to close the container and that didn't work either.
The container class is intentionally not 100% width. It is different fixed widths depending on the width of the viewport.
If you want to work with the full width of the screen, use .container-fluid:
Bootstrap 3:
<body>
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-6"></div>
<div class="col-lg-6"></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-8"></div>
<div class="col-lg-4"></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-12"></div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
Bootstrap 2:
<body>
<div class="row">
<div class="span6"></div>
<div class="span6"></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="span8"></div>
<div class="span4"></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="span12"></div>
</div>
</body>
QUICK ANSWER
Use multiple NOT NESTED .containers
Wrap those .containers you want to have a full-width background in a div
Add a CSS background to the wrapping div
Fiddles: Simple: https://jsfiddle.net/vLhc35k4/ , Container borders: https://jsfiddle.net/vLhc35k4/1/
HTML:
<div class="container">
<h2>Section 1</h2>
</div>
<div class="specialBackground">
<div class="container">
<h2>Section 2</h2>
</div>
</div>
CSS: .specialBackground{ background-color: gold; /*replace with own background settings*/ }
FURTHER INFO
DON'T USE NESTED CONTAINERS
Many people will (wrongly) suggest, that you should use nested containers. Well, you should NOT.
They are not ment to be nested. (See to "Containers" section in the docs)
HOW IT WORKS
div is a block element, which by default spans to the full width of a document body - there is the full-width feature. It also has a height of it's content (if you don't specify otherwise).
The bootstrap containers are not required to be direct children of a body, they are just containers with some padding and possibly some screen-width-variable fixed widths.
If a basic grid .container has some fixed width it is also auto-centered horizontally.
So there is no difference whether you put it as a:
Direct child of a body
Direct child of a basic div that is a direct child of a body.
By "basic" div I mean div that does not have a CSS altering his border, padding, dimensions, position or content size. Really just a HTML element with display: block; CSS and possibly background.
But of course setting vertical-like CSS (height, padding-top, ...) should not break the bootstrap grid :-)
Bootstrap itself is using the same approach
...All over it's own website and in it's "JUMBOTRON" example:
http://getbootstrap.com/examples/jumbotron/
This is how you can achieve your desired setup with Bootstrap 3:
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row"> <!-- Give this div your desired background color -->
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
... your content here ...
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The container-fluid part makes sure that you can change the background over the full width. The container part makes sure that your content is still wrapped in a fixed width.
This approach works, but personally I don't like all the nesting. However, I haven't found a better solution so far.
There is a workaround using vw. Is useful when you can't create a new fluid container.
This, inside a classic 'container' div will be full size.
.row-full{
width: 100vw;
position: relative;
margin-left: -50vw;
left: 50%;
}
After this there is the sidebar problem (thanks to #Typhlosaurus), solved with this js function, calling it on document load and resize:
function full_row_resize(){
var body_width = $('body').width();
$('.row-full').css('width', (body_width));
$('.row-full').css('margin-left', ('-'+(body_width/2)+'px'));
return false;
}
In bootstrap 4, you can use 'w-100' class (w as width, and 100 as 100%)
You can find documentation here:
https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/utilities/sizing/
If you can't change the HTML layout:
.full-width {
width: 100vw;
margin-left: -50vw;
left: 50%;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12">a</div>
<div class="col-xs-12">b</div>
<div class="col-xs-12 full-width">c</div>
<div class="col-xs-12">d</div>
</div>
</div>
Demo: http://www.bootply.com/tVkNyWJxA6
Sometimes it's not possible to close the content container.
The solution we are using is a bit different but prevent a overflow because of the
firefox scrollbar size!
.full-width {
margin-top: 15px;
margin-bottom: 15px;
position: relative;
width: calc(100vw - 10px);
margin-left: calc(-50vw + 5px);
left: 50%;
}
Here is a example: https://jsfiddle.net/RubbelDeKatz/wvt9253q
Instead of
style="width:100%"
try using
class="col-xs-12"
it will save you 1 character :)
Sorry, should have asked for your css as well. As is, basically what you need to look at is giving your container div the style .container { width: 100%; } in your css and then the enclosed divs will inherit this as long as you don't give them their own width. You were also missing a few closing tags, and the </center> closes a <center> without it ever being open, at least in this section of code. I wasn't sure if you wanted the image in the same div that contains your content or separate, so I created two examples. I changed the width of the img to 100px simply because jsfiddle offers a small viewing area. Let me know if it's not what you're looking for.
content and image separate: http://jsfiddle.net/QvqKS/2/
content and image in same div (img floated left): http://jsfiddle.net/QvqKS/3/
I would use two separate 'container' div as below:
<div class="container">
/* normal*/
</div>
<div class="container-fluid">
/*full width container*/
</div>
Bare in mind that container-fluid does not follow your breakpoints and it is a full width container.
I'd wonder why someone would try to "override" the container width, since its purpose is to keep its content with some padding, but I had a similar situation (that's why I wanted to share my solution, even though there're answers).
In my situation, I wanted to have all content (of all pages) rendered inside a container, so this was the piece of code from my _Layout.cshtml:
<div id="body">
#RenderSection("featured", required: false)
<section class="content-wrapper main-content clear-fix">
<div class="container">
#RenderBody()
</div>
</section>
</div>
In my Home Index page, I had a background header image I'd like to fill the whole screen width, so the solution was to make the Index.cshtml like this:
#section featured {
<!-- This content will be rendered outside the "container div" -->
<div class="intro-header">
<div class="container">SOME CONTENT WITH A NICE BACKGROUND</div>
</div>
}
<!-- The content below will be rendered INSIDE the "container div" -->
<div class="content-section-b">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
MORE CONTENT
</div>
</div>
</div>
I think this is better than trying to make workarounds, since sections are made with the purpose of allowing (or forcing) views to dynamically replace some content in the layout.
Though people have mentioned that you will need to use .container-fluid in this case but you will also have to remove the padding from bootstrap.
The following answer is not exactly optimal by any measure, but I needed something that maintains its position within the container whilst it stretches the inner div fully.
https://jsfiddle.net/fah5axm5/
$(function() {
$(window).on('load resize', ppaFullWidth);
function ppaFullWidth() {
var $elements = $('[data-ppa-full-width="true"]');
$.each( $elements, function( key, item ) {
var $el = $(this);
var $container = $el.closest('.container');
var margin = parseInt($container.css('margin-left'), 10);
var padding = parseInt($container.css('padding-left'), 10)
var offset = margin + padding;
$el.css({
position: "relative",
left: -offset,
"box-sizing": "border-box",
width: $(window).width(),
"padding-left": offset + "px",
"padding-right": offset + "px"
});
});
}
});
This must work (Mobile phone as well as Desktop screen):
class: alignfull and class: img-fluid will do the magic.
<div class="alignfull">
<img class="img-fluid" style="background-size: cover;
background-position: center ;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
height: auto;
min-width: 100%;
width: -moz-available; "
src="{{ $image->image }}" alt="An image">
</div>

Bootstrap affix taller than content, scroll fail
I'm having the same problem the author of this question exhibits with affix, specifically the authors comment on the accepted answer. The answerer provides a secondary solution, but this is unsatisfactory.
The issue occurs when all of the following conditions are present:
Affixed div is taller than view port
Affixed div is tallest part of page
User scrolls past affix-top
It is demonstrated in this JSFiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/g1ns9k8o/3/ with the following code:
CSS:
.top-bit { height: 100px; }
.sidebar { width: 200px; padding: 10px; }
.sidebar.affix { top: 10px; }
HTML:
<div class="top-bit">
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-9">
<!-- short content -->
</div>
<div class="col-xs-3">
<div class="sidebar" data-spy="affix" data-offset-top="100">
<!-- long content -->
</div>
</div>
</div>
I had this problem and ran into the jerky scroll movement. To fix it, I used JavaScript to compare the height of the affixed element to the element it is sitting next to. If the affixed height is less than the content height, set the affix. Otherwise, just let the affixed element sit where it is.
So, say it's a sidebar that I'm fixing next to a content element.
// Pseudocode
if (sidebar.height < content.height) {
$(sidebar).affix({});
}
bootstrap 3 full width image and div in container
I'm trying to set some divs to width: 100% on Twitter Bootstrap 3 (including no paddings or margins). JSfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/rq9ycjcx/ HTML: <div class="container"> <header> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-2"> <img src="http://placehold.it/150x50"> </div> <div class="col-md-10">Menu</div> </div> <div class="row gray"> <div class="col-md-6"> <h1>Page Title</h1> </div> <div class="col-md-6"> <div class="breadcrumbs">Main page > page </div> </div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-12"> <img src="http://placehold.it/350x150" /> </div> </div> </header> <footer> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-12">Content</div> </div> <div class="row dark"> <div class="col-md-3">Footer 1</div> <div class="col-md-3">Footer 2</div> <div class="col-md-3">Footer 3</div> <div class="col-md-3">Footer 4</div> </div> </footer> </div> What is the right way to get image http://placehold.it/350x150 width: 100%, including no paddings or margins? Page title and breadcrumbs height is 80px. If I resize window to smaller screen (e.g. mobile), text Main page > page disappears (it's somewhere but not on own row). How to fix it?
Use <div class="container-fluid">. As per Bootstrap Docs: Use .container-fluid for a full width container, spanning the entire width of your viewport. There is 0 padding on container-fluid. In your code you have what appears to be body content in your header and you also have a div class="container" outside of your header and footer. This is not correct, you should have your container/container-fluid inside of your body. Also for your header you should use <nav="nav navbar-nav">. Updated Fiddle
As suggested above, you can create a helper class
.padding-0 {
padding: 0;
}
and apply it to any HTML elements for which you need a padding reset. So in your case, it would look like this:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12 padding-0">
<img src="http://placehold.it/350x150" />
</div>
</div>
For the second problem, set height of .gray class to auto :
#media () {
.gray {
height: auto;
}
}
Note: You could also remove line-height: 80px, it's optional :)
http://jsfiddle.net/rq9ycjcx/8/
There is no "right" way to do that in Bootstrap 3. It means you have to reset padding for the exact column.
You can create a class such as this one:
.col-md-12.resetPadding { padding:0px }
About Main page > page disappearing, I don't see this problem on my browsers (tested on Chrome and FF), but you have line-height: 80px there and as you said your breadcrumbs div has height: 80px;, so try to reduce line-height property and see how it works.
A simple way would be to remove the <div class="col-md-12">...</div> and add your content directly inside the row tag. The row tag removes the left & right gutters, whereas the cold-md-12 essentially adds the gutters back in. The Bootstrap 3 documentation says that for single full width items you don't need any markup, eg just wrap it in <p> tags. However this will show the 15px gutters due to the page markup. So by simply adding in the row tag and placing your content directly inside this you will get 100% width content and be compliant with the BS3 documentation.
displayed 'block' divs inside several 'inline' divs
My problem can be better understood by the image below.
I have several div elements (div A) which have a variable size that depends on their content.
They are displayed inblock inside a larger container with a max-with defined(the large outer rectangle without a name).
Everything works fine until I had inside divs A two other divs (B and C) which I what that look like the image.
I haven´t been successful. I've tried several combinations of css properties like display, margin, padding, float... negative margins... tables...
Any help would be welcome.
Update
the code looks like the example:
html
<div style="max-width: 800px;">
<div class="div_a">
<div class="div_b">
short text
</div>
<div class="div_c">
short text
</div>
</div>
<div class="div_a">
<div class="div_b">
looooong text
</div>
<div class="div_c">
looooong text
</div>
</div>
<div class="div_a">
<div class="div_b">
huuuuuge text
</div>
<div class="div_c">
huuuuuge text
</div>
</div>
</div>
css
.div_a{
display: inline;
}
.div_b{
display: block; /* doesn't work*/
}
.div_c{
display: block; /* doesn't work*/
}
If I understand correctly, this should do it:
.div_a{
display: inline-block;
}
:)
...assuming you don't have other styles, besides border and spacing properties.

zurb foundation is it possible to have full row width
I'm using foundation 3 to build a responsive website but I want to have the Footer and Navigation background width to occupy the entire width? I have named my rows as class="row navigation" class="row footer" I tried looking for how to fix this but I'm out of options. I'm assuming it is a small fix in the foundation.css file but it's a bit too overwhelming at the moment as I'm new to it. Any poiinters much appreciated.
I ran into the same problem yesterday. The trick is, for full width spanning blocks, you just keep them out of the row/column structure, since row/column will always apply the default padding. Keep your footers and headers on their own, and use row/column inside them. <header> This will span the full width of the page </header> <div class="row"> <div class="twelve columns"> This text will flow within all typical padding and margins </div> </div> <footer> This will span the full width of the page <div class="row"> <div class="twelve columns"> This text will flow within all typical padding and margins </div> </div> </footer>
What I have been doing is to add a custom class so that I can chain it with .row and override the max-width setting.
<div class="row full-width"></div>
.row.full-width {
width: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
}
I put width in here too to cover bases, but it is already declared in foundation.css so you can just omit it.
If you're using Zurb Foundation Framework, simply remove the row class and wrap the element in a class container that is 100% width. Now you probably want to center the stuff, use class centered like this: <div class="container navigation"> <div class="centered"> Some navigation stuff </div> </div>
I completely disagree with the answer. You shouldn't have to use !important Please refer to my article and demo at http://edcharbeneau.github.com/FoundationSinglePageRWD/ You should be able to get what you need from there. The demo is for 2.2 but is very similar in function to v3.
Foundation 6 supports this feature naturally with row expanded. code example: <div class="expanded row"> ... </div> Read more here: http://foundation.zurb.com/sites/docs/grid.html#fluid-row
Use "Section" as in: <section> <div class="row"> <div class="small-12 columns"> </div> </div> </section> Then, assign an ID to the section and use that for your background.
This is in regards to Foundation 5. None of the answers given so far, provide edge-to-edge, full widths. That's because inner .columns add padding.
For a true edge-to-edge, full width content, add this to your CSS.
.row.full { width: 100%; max-width: 100%; }
.row.full>.column:first-child,
.row.full>.columns:first-child { padding-left: 0; }
.row.full>.column:last-child,
.row.full>.columns:last-child { padding-right: 0; }
Simply add .full class to a .row you wish to extend full width.
<div class="row full">
<div class="medium-6 column">This column touches Left edge.</div>
<div class="medium-6 column">This column touches Right edge.</div>
</div>
Just override the max-width property as max-width: initial;, for example,
.fullWidth {
width: 100%;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
max-width: initial;
}
<div class="row fullWidth"> </div>
this works for me :)
I know that there are already many answers, but I think I have something new to add in this topic if someone is using Foundation 5 and stumbled upon this question (like me).
As Foundation is using REM units, it would be best to alter .row class using them and by adding extra class, so you can have only selected rows full-width. For example by using .full class:
.row.full {
max-width: 80rem; /* about 90rem should give you almost full screen width */
}
You can see that it is used like this even in documentation page of Zurb Foundation (they altered .row class, though): http://foundation.zurb.com/docs/ (just look into page source code)
You really would want to keep the row class otherwise you lose a lot of the power of the grid system. Why not change the setting for $rowWidth from 1000 (default) to 100%. This can be found in the file foundation_and_overrides.scss
Just set the $row-width: 100%; http://foundation.zurb.com/forum/posts/927-full-width-layouts
I am not sure if I am missing something, but I had to add a .row div for the .centered to work. I can still style the .header to have a full width background in this case, but the .container method did not work for me. <header class="header"> <div class="row"> <div class="centered"> Logo and stuff </div> </div> <div class="row"> Some navigation stuff </div> </header>
If you don't give it the "row" class and put columns inside it works on a 100% width
If you're using sass, this is a better way:
<div class="row full-width"></div>
.row{
&.full-width{
width: 100%;
max-width: 100%!important; //might be needded depending on your settings
&>.column:first-child,
&>.columns:first-child{
padding-left: 0;
}
&>.column:last-child,
&>.columns:last-child{
padding-right: 0;
}
}
}
yes, just use like this: <div class="large-12 columns"> <h2>Header Twelve Columns (this will have full width of the BROWSER <---->></h2> </div>
Two divs; left should be fixed width, right should fill rest of space
I've got the following HTML code: <body> <div id="Frame"> <div id="Body"> <div id="Panel">Side panel, fixed width.</div> <div id="Content">The rest of the content, should be dynamic width and fill up rest of space horizontally.</div> </div> <div id="Foot"> <div>FooBar.</div> </div> </div> </body> What I'm trying to do is make it so that #Panel is of a fixed width (~200 pixels) and on the left hand side, and that #Content is immediately to the right of #Panel but is of "dynamic" width and fills the rest of the space in the browser screen horizontally. I've tried a lot of different things but haven't been able to get it working -- the farthest I've gotten is to the point where #Panel is on the left and #Content is to the right of #Panel and fills of the rest of the space, but #Content starts below #Panel whereas I'd like it to start at the same vertical position. I did find In CSS, how do I get a left-side fixed-width column with a right-side table that uses the rest of the width?, however I wasn't able to apply it to the HTML above.
Here's that link, applied to your code:
CSS
#frame { background:pink }
#panel { background:orange; width:200px; float:left }
#content { background:khaki; margin-left:200px }
#foot { background:cornflowerblue }
HTML
<div id='frame'>
<div id='body'>
<div id='panel'>
Side panel, fixed width.
</div>
<div id='content'>
The rest of the content, should be dynamic width and fill up rest of space
horizontally.
</div>
</div><!-- End #body -->
<div id='foot'>
<div>FooBar.</div>
</div>
</div><!-- End #frame -->
Works pretty well! Although, IMHO, you don't need the frame or body (but I don't know the master plan). That would look like this:
<div id='panel'>
Side panel, fixed width.
</div>
<div id='content'>
The rest of the content, should be dynamic width and fill up rest of space
horizontally.
</div>
<div id='foot'>
<div>FooBar.</div>
</div>
