Just wondering how to style a header like the attached image. Was thinking of using two divs, the left for the text and the right for the horizontal repeating image. Problem is I need the right div's width to change with respect to different header lengths.
Any help would be appreciated!
header image
You can do that in simple;
.header{
width:100%;
height:20px;
background:url('http://jsfiddle.net/favicon.png') repeat;
}
.header span{
background-color:#FFF;
display:inline-block;
height: 20px;
}
<div class="header"><span class="title">Header Text</span></div>
You can include this in various pages and the title space re-size accordingly.
Here is a working Live Demo
Use left and right DIVs with respective width and then to the right div use text-align: right; property so that the content loaded in right div will remain to right and increase to left depending on the size of content
<div class="header">
<div class="left"></div>
<div class="right"></div>
</div>
.header{overflow: hidden;} //Considering width: 1000px;
.left{float: left; width: 100px;}
.right{float: right; width: 900px; text-align: right;}
you could do it with just a <h1> tag for semantic reasons, and ad a background-image to it.
With padding-right you now can control the amount of how many times it should repeat itself and filling up the needed space.

I have been banging my head against the wall trying to figure out this problem and I have looked high and low for the answer and came up with similar results.
Synopsis
The problem is that I am building a website using the 960 grid and have three columns that I want to stretch at 100% at all times. Here is a fiddle for your reference: http://jsfiddle.net/Uec7h/1/
Essentially the html is like so:
<div class="contentWrapper">
<div class="container_12">
<div class="grid_2 leftSide clearfix">
Left sidebar content.
</div>
<div class="grid_7 content">
Lots of content loaded from the server.
</div>
<div class="grid_3 rightSide">
Right sidebar content.
</div>
</div>
</div>
with the CSS being like
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
.content {
height: 100%;
}
.leftSide {
height: 100%;
background-color: #000000;
}
.rightSide {
height: 100%;
background-color: #000000;
}
.contentWrapper {
height: 100%;
}
The fiddle isn't completely accurate to what I am seeing on my local version, but it's close. Seems like the left and right sidebars do not want to expand to 100% no matter what I do.
What I've Tried
Most of the answers I have found on SO have suggested to put height: 100% on the html, body elements and everything should work out fine. Adding this attribute and giving both sidebars height: 100% did work a little bit, but if the content in the middle column gets too big, it stops at a certain point and won't continue to stretch.
I have tried adding the clearfix class that comes with the 960 grid but it didn't seem to help at all.
Question
How do I get the left and right side bars height in the fiddle to be 100% no matter what content is in the middle column?
If you add the following CSS to the sidebar elements it will fill the 100% of the height.
display:block;
height:auto;
position:absolute;
top:0px;
bottom:0px;
If you place the sidebar into a wrapper div with relative positioning, the content section will be again in it's right place...
I would also set padding and margin to 0 for the body.
EDIT:
If you add height: 100% to the .container_12 it will get a real height, and children elements can have a 100% height. Notice that the sidebars will be as height as the window itself, but your content at the middle can be taller than 100%... Fiddle
Dont know the 960 grid, the EDITED solution - using visibility: visible; -
HTML
<div id="box">
<div class="vision"> sdfsdfsd </div>
</div>
CSS
#box {
float: left;
border: 2px solid red;
}
.vision {
width: 300px;
height: 600px;
visibility: visible;
}
I am trying to create something like a gallery that shows different number of images per row based on the width of the browser. This has already been achieved using overflow: hidden in the outer div and float: left in the inner div.
However, what happens with this is that my images are always aligned to the left, leaving alot of whitespace on the right. How do I make it such that the gallery is always centered in the screen no matter how many images there are per row.

Thank you very much. :)
How about this: http://codepen.io/anon/full/mtBbF
HTML
<div class="container">
<div class="red box">red</div>
<div class="blue box">blue</div>
<div class="black box">black</div>
</div>
CSS
body{
text-align:center; /*You would need to define this in a parent of .container*/
}
.container{
display: inline-block;
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: left;
}
.box {
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
float: left;
}
Demonstration
You need to use an id(or class) on the main div. Set width: 300+px and margin: auto
Also your boxes should be with display: inline-block to allow them to begave "inline"
I have changed colors of the boxes a bit for better visibility.
I'm trying to design a web page these days that is a bit hard.
I have three main divs. First one for header, another for footer, and third one for main content. Header and footer must be fixed in top and bottom of the page. Their place mustn't change with resizing of browser window. Third div must be in the blank space between those divs. It can resize to fit the page with window resize.
Height of main div must exactly change, because I want to place a Google Maps in that div, so the height of this div is important.
I tried so many things, but they were not successful. Setting height of the div to 100%(while height of body and html is 100%, too) was not the answer. Using a table (with three rows, two rows with fixed height, one row with variable height, with height="100%") had some problems, too(in IE8, when I declared a doctype, the div in second row (with height:100%) didn't fit the cell anymore!).
Now I have no idea to do this work. What can I do?
Note: I prefer not to use CSS3, because compatibility with old browsers is important for me.
You could try something like this.
HTML
<div id="header"></div>
<div id="body"></div>
<div id="footer"></div>
CSS
#header {
height:50px;
width: 100%;
background: black;
position: fixed;
z-index: 1;
top: 0;
}
#body {
height:100%;
width: 100%;
background: #CCC;
position: absolute;
z-index: 0;
}
#footer {
height: 50px;
width: 100%;
background: #0CF;
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
}
Here is a fiddle - http://jsfiddle.net/6M59T/
Use a set height for your header, and use sticky footer to keep your footer a set height and aligned to the bottom as well. The space in between should then always be the right height.
You should try the well known Clearfix hack to handle height issues, because you need to "clear" parents elements to get that full 100% height you need.
This is one of the shortcomings of css. You cannot accomplish what you want using just those three divs. You need to use additional divs to offset the height of your header and footer. Here is how to solve this:
<body style="height:100%; margin:0; padding:0;">
<div id="header" style="height:50px; position: relative; z-index: inherit; background-color:lightblue;"></div>
<div id="content" style="height:100%; margin:-50px 0 -70px 0; background-color:wheat">
<div id="header-offset" style="height:50px;"></div>
<div id="footer-offset" style="height:70px;"></div>
</div>
<div id="footer" style="height:70px; background-color:lightblue;"></div>
</body>
I have a main div, and three divs inside of it. They are all given a width 30%, and they are all centered within the main div.
I used display: inline-block; so that the three divs appear next to each other, but when I give them a height of anything, the two left-most go down a bit, and the right one stays where it should. All that's inside the divs is just simple inputs, nothing that could dynamically increase the div's size.
How should I fix this?
It's quite hard to work out the issue without any live code but give these a go. For the DIVs inside the main DIV, assign the class vertical-align:top
Another option (or as well as) is to set the line-height to the desired height rather than the height.
If you have no luck with these, I suggest you put your html and css up on jsfiddle.
Yes. the three inside divs must be floated to the left so that they should align exactly. without floating, they can create problems in different browsers.
CSS Code
#wrapper { width: 100%; height: auto; margin: 0; padding: 0;}
.inner { width: 30%; float:left; min-height:50px; margin:0 5px 0 0;}
HTML Code
<div id="wrapper">
<div class="inner"></div>
<div class="inner"></div>
<div class="inner" style=" margin:0;"></div>
</div>
Here's a working solution. http://jsfiddle.net/j3zjg/
<style>
#container{
width:500px;
height:300px;
border:1px solid red;
}
#container div{
width:30%;
float:left;
height:40px;
background:red;
margin-right:5px;
}
</style>
<div id="container">
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
I'm looking to create a header like:
<div id="header>
<span class="left></span>
<span class="center"></span>
<span class="right></span>
</div>
So have a header that's all inline. the left to all the way to the left, the right is all the way to the right, and the center is in the center of the header.
The challenge is #header is fluid. Any CSS suggestions. right now the best way I can think to get this done is with a table with 3 rows.
Thanks
Try this:

If you adjust the spacer bar in the middle of the page, you will see that all of your "columns" stay appropriately aligned.
The key is that all of the columns' widths add up to 100% and you float them all to the left (or right, it doesn't really matter). When your widths are percentage-based, they will adjust appropriately as the parent changes size.
If you only care about the text being right/center/left (and not images, etc), you could also make all of the columns 100% width and absolutely positioned, and then just use text-alignment:
http://jsfiddle.net/h7qB8/
Is there a reason that floating the left and right spans won't work for you?
Can you re-order the HTML to be left/right/center (or right/left/center)? If so, float the columns and use margins or borders on the center to hold it off the side bars.
This would be a good start:
<div id="header" style="position:relative;width:100%;">
<div class="left" style="position:relative;width:200px;float:left;"></div>
<div class="center" style="position:relative;float:left;text-align:center;"></div>
<div class="right" style="position:relative;width:100px;float:right;"></div>
</div>
This will center everything in the middle div and keep the other 2 divs to the side. Make sure the element containing the header div is set to position:relative;width:100%; as well.
You can also use display: inline-block on the inner elements, on the outer container do a text align center, and then on .left float: left; .right float: right. This would allow you to set a width on the spans, but keep them evenly spaced from the center. See:
#header {
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
.left, .center, .right {
display: inline-block;
width: 100px;
border: 1px solid green;
}
.center {
text-align: center;
}
.left {
float: left;
}
.right {
float: right;
}
You don't mention it in your question but have it in your tag - if you're able to use CSS3 then the possibilities open up more. You can use the flex box layout: http://www.the-haystack.com/2010/01/23/css3-flexbox-part-1/ or css3 columns: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS3_Columns
