I am looking to expand a div horizontally after a video is dynamically resized, similar to how YouTube works on re-sizing.
I have re-sizing images on the video and they work fine, users can press the + or - arrow fine and the video resizes, but the box on the right does not fall below it and expand the 100% of 1024px container (the max the video resizes). Also, when the video is reduced in size the box does not expand to the left.
Can anyone help me on this?
Please take a look at my jsFiddle as an example http://jsfiddle.net/headex/Xw8EV/ (NOTE: The images for the resizing buttons are not in the fiddle, you just have to imagine they are there)
Any help is much appreciated.
Cheers!
Try to use diplay: inline-block for container element. In that case you do not have to define the width for it and it will have the size of inner element.

I hope what I try is not impossible.
Let me explain first: I have a responsive design which requires a background to be fixed under some situations (media query blocks). The design in question is this one:
http://think-open.at/fileadmin/templates/responsive/content.html
Basically there are two media queries: one for the maximal height and one for the minimal width. If there is enough viewport height there is a scrollbar in the content area and the design height is fixed. But if the viewport is not large enough for showing the predefined height the height-mediaquery removes the scrollbar from the inner div so there won't be two nested scrolling containers (body + div) and sets the content area to height: auto.
There is also a responsive media query if the viewport is too narrow but this works flawless.
Now the problem: When the design switches to the mode where the whole page scrolls (below 830px height) I would like to position the image in the right container "fixed" so it does not scroll out of the viewport. But then the problem arises, that I can't really position the background in regards to the container div as "fixed" positions an background image in regard to the viewport. I have created a CSS fiddle here:
http://dabblet.com/gist/ae5c3598e1465ce0c90e
If you change the width you notice the problem. I would like to have the right border of the image aligned with the right border of the green box.
Is this somehow possible? I have no problem using calc() as there will be a condition in my CMS to use the plain old-school design if an older browser gets detected.
I solved it myself now. Sorry for posting.
The trick was: As my design is centered, I started to try using calc(50% + somepixelvalue). This did the job.
I adjusted the CSS playground:
http://dabblet.com/gist/5b63553f47a81f3bb701
Now the image is always up in line with the right border of the green area. When scaling there is sometimes a 1pixel difference but this doesn't matter as the background will get assigned to some container element which acts as mask.
While zooming the Web Page the DIV element will not Zoom, but the component placed inside the DIV is zooming and go out side of the DIV. Here I created a test fiddle test fiddle. Please help me to resolve this issue.
Your Div is taking up 50% of available space, irrespective of whats inside. The rest of the space is being left as margin.
For example if you zoom out from 100% (zoom out, not in). You can see that the contents will keep on getting small, but the width of the div will increase.
If you care about zoom-out/zoom-in looks, then use pixels instead of percentage.

I have a fixed height div and want to align an image to the bottom right corner with the text (of an unknown/variable length) to wrap around it. I'd ideally like to avoid using Javascript and the best solution so far appears to be to use a vertical spacer div above the image (which is the container height - image height) to push it down. This works perfectly on IE / FF but the text overlaps the top of the image on safari (mobile and standard). I'm not sure why this is happening, I appreciate the fonts are displaying differently but surely the text should flow around the div/image either way? You can see an example of what i'm talking about at http://jsfiddle.net/deshg/XScmK/, i've just used a coloured div with some text instead of an image in this example.
Any thoughts would be massively appreciated as I'm not sure why this isn't working?
Thanks very much as ever,
Dave
in your 3rd div margin-top:20px; for a quick fix, but this will push up your 1px wide div.
also try changing these heights: 141px to 140px, and change 159px to 160px.
I have a div that is positioned:absolute, this div extends outside the bounds of my site wrapper as it just contains a background image for a slider and doesn't need to be seen all the time. The problem is I cannot work out how to stop this div triggering the scrollbar. I have tried different combinations of overflow and position and cannot work it out.
If you inspect the element with firebug, just place it over the shadow behind the slider and you will see the div in question. You notice the scrollbar kicks in as soon as the browser bounds touches it.

Can anyone let me know how to stop the scrollbar appearing for the shadow div?

It is the size of the DIV. When I inspect it using Chrome, the CSS shows that the container DIV was set to 520px width and the problematic DIV was set to 733px, so it actually exceeds the 980px width center area. Unless you want the shadow to disappear, I suggest moving it a bit to the left and make the div left to it smaller.
You can use the CSS overflow-x:hidden on the body element.
Other more complicated way that comes to mind is using jQuery to detect the size of the window and resize the problematic div according to the window's size.
Firstly, thanks to those that commented.
I have come up with a solution that allows me to keep the layout the same while still adhering to the document width. What I did was create a #wrap2 inside the main wrapper which has a width of 100% (full width of browser window).
#wrap2 {background: url(../css_img/slider-bg.png) no-repeat center 317px; }
The trick to this was making sure the image position was set to center. This means the image would also remain relative to the content when resizing the browser. The way I made the shadow line up behind the slider was to add blank pixels to the left, so the image ended up being about 1200px wide, this pushed shadow part right. Because it's all blank pixels it only added about 1kb. If someone thinks there is a better solution let me know.
I have a layout with the following requirements
An image on the left side, and content on the right side.
The image is pinned to the bottom left of the viewport
The image does not move when the user scrolls
The image resizes to 100% height of the viewport, up to it's max height. (I don't want the image to distort in it's attempts to be larger than it actually is)
The image retains it's aspect ratio, and resizes it's width according to the height resizing.
The content begins to the right of the image, and moves as the image resizes with the browser viewport.
Now, I've managed to achieve pretty much all but the last of these requirements.
Have a look here:
http://letteringmusic.com/
The image resizes quite nicely, but I can't get the content to float next to the image because image is position:fixed, and therefore out of the document flow.
I'm not opposed to a javascript solution if that's the only way to get the result I want.
Anybody know what I need to do to make this work?
Thank you!!
A quick (and perhaps only) solution is to restyle the content when the browser window resizes (using the window.onresize event). In that function you should read the width of the background image:
var bgWidth = getElementById('background-img').style.width;
getElementById('content').style.left = bgWidth;
and use #content { position: absolute }. I know this introduces another problems, but I think you can bypass them. It's not the most neat solution, as Javascript must be enabled (and the event will be fired a lot when someone resizes this window), but it should work.
