I'm trying to do jquery pagination, however I'm having a problem keeping the navigator on the bottom, even with clear: both.
The problem is that the navigation div <div class="alt_page_navigation"></div> needs to be right where </ul> ends and cannot be in another div, or else the pagination get's broken.
Another problem is that because the page is dynamic, I don't know the width of the alt_page_navigation beforehand.
Here's a live page example, I've tried everything google spit up, to no avail.
If anyone knows of a simple solution, please let me know :)
Thank you :))
Clear won't work with your inline-block display, but you need that for centering.
Try this solution for creating a clearing div, then put
<div class="clearfix"></div>
between your products and your pager.
Put padding at the bottom equal to the height of your nav, and position like so:
.wrapper { position:relative; padding-bottom:1.5em }
.nav { height:1.5em; position:absolute; bottom:0 }
For example: http://jsfiddle.net/CwrMq/
But there's no reason to use absolute positioning, either; just make it a proper display:block item. For example: http://jsfiddle.net/CwrMq/1/
Your .alt_page_navigation div has display: inline-block set on it. If you delete this line in css - your div will clear the floats. If you want its content to be in the center of the page simply add text-align: center to it and make sure that its content is inline-block (now your a are block-level). You can see the working example here: http://jsfiddle.net/6FNH6/
Here is a solution i tend to use in situations like this.
Your paginator needs to go inside a container that positions it horizontally
See this fiddle - http://jsfiddle.net/94MwF/1/
Basically you are using text-align to horizontally center it, and position absolute to put it at the bottom.

I have a span element which I want to be present at teh right corner of the page. For that I have used margin-right:10px. But it shows no effect. Where as margin-left works. Why is this? And how to make the span element appear at the right side of the page?
Try this (jsFiddle)
.right-corner {
float:right;
}
or this (jsFiddle)
.right-corner {
position:absolute:
top:0;
right:0;
}
The reason that margin-right doesn't work is because it's just giving your element a right margin not repositioning it. To help you understand, if you put something after your element with margin-right there will be a gap between them which is the margin.
margin-left does this as well, it's just doing it on the left side and since elements are places from left-to-right there is the gap on the left side which looks like it just shifted to the right.
Have a look at this little example to try to understand. You should read up on the CSS box model if you don't understand.
Margin-right is the right margin.
If you want to align it to the right you can use right:10px that is if position is absolute.
otherwise you can use float:right
You can also set the display:inline-block to the span.

I think what you're looking for is float:right;
In order to complete #Tyriar answer, here's a fiddle also showing you the use of text-align: right. And why a margin can exist but have no observable effect. Also how to use the clear property after a floating element and/or a clearfix on containers of floating elements (both are not necessary here)
http://jsfiddle.net/rLQbk/
One more advice: do NOT use absolute positioning if you're not really (really) sure of what you want to achieve and how; most of the time it's not the best solution to a CSS problem. Completely out of the flow, its content will display over other content without any care...
I'm having a tuff time centering the navigation of my website with the content body. I'd like the navigation to center with that instead of the browser because it looks like its a bit left of the content body and doesn't quite look right.
Is that possible. http://www.bryananthonylewis.com/ Just a simple blog with Twitter Bootstrap.
I think you're on the wrong track here..
a quick scan using chromeinspect shows me you use span8 offset 2 for your main content (the first element within your container element right beneath #modal-contact), and i think you're main content is a bit to the right and not the header to the left.
my quick fix:
remove the offset,
and get a css style on that content with:
float: none;
margin: 0 auto; /*replace 0 for top margin*/
putting a width to the container as Pankaj suggests might work too, although you might loose dynamic width changes provided by bootstrap this way... didnt check so i might be wrong on that part
update
another update to clarify
remove previous fix.
in the container element right beneath your #modal-contact add a wrapping div,
not at the top of your page like i think you did...
<div class="container">
<div class='row'>
<div class="span8 offset2">
blogcontent here
</div>
</div>
<div>
woops code tags were missing here
i get a feeling this should do the same thing.
and i also believe that the header needs the same fix. but i'm not 100% sure, so pls try and comment if it works or not. this update is based on the official docs
bootstrap documentation
if things don't work, forget about my suggestion and stick to what works
There is no problem with your header. Actually your content below is not centered and this is happening because of unwanted div with classes "span8 offset2 middle" right under div.container. Fix this by removing that div altogether and overriding .container in your css file by
.container {
width:777px;
}
an example of same edits inside web inspector of chrome
If you refer to the following screenshot:
You will see that everything is lining up perfectly except, the icon does not have a width that is calculated in the centering. You obviously want the icon TO have width.
So how can we do that?
Perhaps add something to the i tags like so:
i {
display: inline-block;
width: 14px;
height: 14px;
line-height: 14px;
vertical-align: text-top;
}
UPDATE:
The screenshot above points to the problem. After a media query, the site goes into tablet mode and the navigation is off. Now, back to work!
My page looks like this: http://ink-12.terc.edu/index.cfm
I want to get the picture (kids' drawings) on the left to follow the rest of the centered content, when the window expands:
Per the suggestions I found in other answers, I added an outer div (#maincontent) to hold my two divs that I want to scroll instead of wrap (#tbltframe and #drawings), and some additional coding (overflow:auto; display:inline-block; white-space:nowrap).
Now my page looks like this:
http://ink-12.web5test.terc.edu/index.cfm
So now it doesn't wrap (great!), but it cut off my drop shadow on the right side (you can still see it on the bottom). And I need to get the main content centered again (following the centered header and footer)--similar to the first webpage I listed. After the changes, the main content aligns left. I tried adding margin-right and margin-left:auto, as well as text-align:center, but neither did it. I also added a min-width, which doesn't seem to do it either. I can see the drop shadow again when I change the min-width to something significantly larger (74em), then but I don't know why, because #tbltframe (50em) and #drawings (14em) = 64em total.
Any help would be very much appreciated. Suggestions to move forward with the code on either webpage I listed would be fine. Thank you!
Please try the below css on skeleton.css line 64
#maincontent {
display: inline-block;
overflow: auto;
white-space: nowrap;
width: 1169px;
}
It will increase the width of the main content div so the images will not cut from sides..
Found a solution: http://www.search-this.com/2008/08/28/lets-all-get-inline-in-a-block-in-a-block/
Have to:
Create a min-width or width on the outer div (#maincontent)
Make #maincontent a block element with display:block
Center #maincontent with text-align:center
Make the inside divs (#drawings and #tbltframe)not wrap in #maincontent with white-space:nowrap;
Make the inside divs inline block elements with display:inline-block
Then make the text inside wrap again (if you want) with white-space:normal
I have a DIV on my page. Within the DIV I have other DIVs which I customize to look like buttons. Here's an example:
fiddle
Because I have so many buttons I need to have some means of scrolling so that the user can scroll down to the correct button (DIV). In the fiddle this is done using an iframe but I think I read that this can give problems with search engine optimization.
Is there some way that I can add a scroll bar to my DIV? I have never seen this done but I hope someone has some ideas.
Thanks,
You could do something like this:
Add
padding-right:30px; overflow:auto; height:500px;
to the main div
http://jsfiddle.net/jasongennaro/AQ7Ev/7/
You will need to set a height to make it work.
Also, you will need padding so the scroll bar does not overlap the content.
If you're willing to use some JQuery, JScroll Pane plugin is exactly what you're looking for
set the height for the containing div + overflow:auto or : scroll
<div style="width: 200px; height:240px;overflow:auto">
<div class = "abc" >.....
You need to set a height on the div and add overflow:auto;. I forked your fiddle, here's the code: http://jsfiddle.net/vxTqT/.
I'm having trouble figuring out how to make the my pictures div show in the right place
here is a fiddle which looks worse the my page bust will give you an idea of what i"m trying to do
here is how it really looks a the of the page and at the `!
as you can see the div "pictures" has space above the pictures inside it and they pictures are pushed out at the bottom making my gradient incorrect.
I can't figure out where the extra space is coming from
additional
there is additional space on the right that grows while you expand the browser window until the next picture can fit then it shrinks. how can I make it so it stays at like 10px until the next picture fits
The problem you're having is that the div.spacer at the top of your pictures DIV is clearing the floated a.home (the sidebar, if I'm not mistaken). A possible solution would be to put overflow:hidden on the pictures DIV.
(Basically, you can control the "scope" of CSS clear by using overflow to create what is called a "block formatting context". If you apply overflow:hidden to the pictures DIV, then clear:both elements inside of that DIV cannot clear floats outside of that DIV.)
You have top: 200px; in the CSS of your pictures div
Hard to tell with the JSFiddle but:
div.pictures {
position:relative;
top:200px;
width:90%;
margin:auto;
background: rgba(255,255,238, 0.25)
}
Looks like that top:200px; rule is adding significant space.
try putting a <br style="clear:both;" /> at the end of the div!
Set top in the div.pictures to 0px;. However, it's difficult to tell if this is the result you want using Fiddle.
