I cant figure out what is wrong with my styles.
Hope someone could help me with this.
Code example:
<style type="text/css">
.maindiv {
overflow:hidden; border:#000 1px solid;
width:450px; min-height:250px;
}
.left_inner {
float:left; width:200px;
min-height:100%; background:#00CC33;
}
.right_inner {
float:left; width:150px; background:#C93;
}
</style>
<div class="maindiv">
<div class="left_inner">Left Block content</div>
<div class="right_inner">Right block content<br />sample txt<br />sample txt</div>
</div>
The way it should be is like in Opera Browser (see image):
The How

The Why
One might intuitively assume (as I once did) that the html element already has a determined height, but it does not (at least in this context). Luckily (or by design) this one element has the unique property of it's height being determinable when it is assigned a percentage height. That is the essential concept because in order to calculate (determine) the height of any other element which is assigned a percentage height you must also be able to determine the height of it's parent.
Anyone that has worked with CSS and the DOM enough likely will tell you they hate floats. This is because it pulls the element out of the flow, which requires additional work and thinking to juggle the effects. Instead use display:inline-block;vertical-align:top; with the one caveat that you will then have to add html comments around any white space between those elements.
The CSS
.maindiv {
overflow:hidden; border:#000 1px solid;
width:450px;min-height:250px;
/*changes*/
height:100%;
}
.left_inner {
float:left; width:200px;
min-height:100%; background:#00CC33;
/*changes*/
float:none;
display:inline-block;
vertical-align:top;
}
.right_inner {
float:left; width:150px; background:#C93;
/*changes*/
float:none;
display:inline-block;
vertical-align:top;
}
/*changes*/
html,
body{
height:100%;
}
The HTML
<div class="maindiv">
<div class="left_inner">Left Block content</div><!--
--><div class="right_inner">Right block content<br />sample txt<br />sample txt</div>
</div>
add
html,
body {
height:100%
}
at the top of your css, that works for me
EDIT: my test :
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
html,
body {
height:100%;
}
.maindiv {
overflow:hidden; border:#000 1px solid;
width:450px; height:100%;
position:relative;
}
.left_inner {
float:left; width:200px;
min-height:100%; background:#00CC33;
position:relative;
}
.right_inner {
float:left; width:150px; background:#C93;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="maindiv">
<div class="left_inner">Left Block content</div>
<div class="right_inner">Right block content<br />sample txt<br />sample txt</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Try this:
<style type="text/css">
.maindiv {
overflow:hidden; border:#000 1px solid;
width:450px; height: auto; min-height:250px;
}
.left_inner {
float:left; width:200px;
min-height:100%; height: 100%; background:#00CC33;
}
.right_inner {
float:left; width:150px; background:#C93;
}
</style>
<div class="maindiv">
<div class="left_inner">Left Block content</div>
<div class="right_inner">Right block content<br />sample txt<br />sample txt</div>
</div>
Most of the time you have to apply a height of auto or 100% to the parent DIV.

I have this template that we have been given to edit, all I want it to insert a top header div with a height of 25px and background colour, which I did, but it won't align correctly at all. I took it outside the wrapper, and increased it's width, but it still aligns slightly right.
I've added the original template below -
<head>
<title>[DOCUMENT_TITLE]</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="pdfdoc">
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="header">
<div id="logo"><center><img src="[LOGOFILE]"></center></div>

<div class="sender-address-line3">[SENDER_ADDRESS_LINE3]</div>
<div class="sender-address-line4">[SENDER_ADDRESS_LINE4]</div>
<div class="sender-address-postcode sender-address-line4">, </div>
<div class="sender-address-postcode">[SENDER_ADDRESS_POSTCODE]</div>

</div>
<div class="cl" id="logo_clearer"></div>

}
#wrapper {

How can I get the added Div centrally aligned in template?
http://jsfiddle.net/5RhFq/16/ - looks fine on here but on here - https://app.kashflow.com/v2/documents/invoice/89BAFB30-CF7C-4A14-98C3-37BD6D8C14CC?media=0&theme=396345 It doesn't.

I am trying to create a layout as follows
Here's the CSS I used
#leftcol { width:15%; position:fixed; float:left;background-color:aliceblue;}
#main { width:50%; height:400px; float:right;background-color:black;}
#comments { display:block; width:50%; float:right; height: 500px; }
This is how my Div's are laid out
<div id="leftcol"></div>
<div id="main"></div>
<div id="comments"></div>
Looks like I am missing something. Any help? The height of each div should be flexible to accomodate it's content
I think you want to add a clear to your comments
clear: right;
http://jsfiddle.net/x9rZj/1/
Here you go: Remove the height from all the divs if you want it to be flexible as you add content, you could also add a min-height:200px; so no matter how much content you have its going to be at least 200px high.
http://jsfiddle.net/5tQt2/
try the following styles
<style>
#leftcol { width:15%; height:100%; float:left;background:blue;}
#main { width:50%; height:400px; float:left;background:black;}
#comments { display:block; width:50%; float:left; height: 500px; background:red;}
</style>
<div id="leftcol"> </div>
<div id="main"> </div>
<div id="comments"> </div>
I'm trying to make my teaser view of the content type (application_formulier) scrollabel on the x-axis instead of the y-axis. I made a view for this (view-view-s4p).
Using CSS I got the following:
.view-view-s4p{
margin-left:-50px;
max-width:920px;
min-width:920px;
height:260px;
overflow:auto;
overflow-y:hidden;
}
.view-view-s4p .view-content {
margin:0 -32767px 0 0;/* browser limit */
height:240px;
}
.view-view-s4p .view-row{
float:left;
}
I now have the scroll working but it go's way past the last post... Any idee on how to fix this.
Go to this link to see an image of my problem:

(btw: if i'm not allowed to change my question like this plz let me know.)
Here's an example of how you can do that:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<style type="text/css">
.wrap {
overflow:auto;
width:600px;
height:220px;
padding:10px;
}
.inner {
float:left;
margin:0 -32767px 0 0;/* browser limit */
}
.inner div {
width:200px;
height:200px;
margin:0 10px;
background:red;
float:left;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="wrap">
<div class="inner">
<div>test</div>
<div>test</div>
<div>test</div>
<div>test</div>
<div>test</div>
<div>test</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

Adding the white-space:nowrap; property to your stylesheet is what you need:
.view-view-s4p{
margin-left:-50px;
width:auto;
min-width:960px;
max-height:253px;
overflow-y:hidden;
overflow-x:scroll;
white-space:nowrap;
}
Demo
I already have seen a couple of questions going in this direction, but nothing helped. Everyone says just set the parent div position to relative and the child ones to absolute. But my problem is that every div is at the 0/0 point of my parent div. It seems the inner elements doesn't know from each other.
Here is what my page should look like:
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/854/unbenanntgoc.png/
In my html I just define my divs:
<div id="content">
<div id="header" />
<div id="naviContent" />
<div id="imageContent" />
<div id="tagContent" />
<div id="textContent" />
</div>
So navi image and tag content divs should float.
And this is how my css looks like:
#charset "utf-8";
body {
background-color:#33FF00;
}
#header {
height:100px;
background-color:#FFFFFF;
position:relative;
}
#naviContent {
width:25%;
background-color:#F0F;
float:left;
}
#imageContent {
background-color:#000;
position:absolute;
float:left;
width:800px;
height:600px;
}
#tagContent {
background-color:#900;
position:absolute;
float:left;
width: 25%;
}
#textContent {
background-color:#0000FF;
clear:both;
}
#content {
height:1600px;
width:1200px;
background-color:#999999;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
padding:10px;
position:relative;
}
So maybe anyone can tell me why all my elements (black, yellow, red, grey and green) are positioned to the 0/0 point of the pink one?
Thanks in advance
You need to close the DIV properly -
<div id="content">
<div id="header">Header </div>
<div id="naviContent">Nav</div>
<div id="imageContent">Image</div>
<div id="tagContent"> Tags</div>
<div id="textContent">Text </div>
</div>
EDIT: Working Fiddle You need to adjust floated width and you are done!
Position absolute is not the standard way of laying out a page.
What you should do is just remove the position attribute, float everything left and set widths (please note you will need content in the div for it to render correctly).
You might want to look into CSS grid systems such as 960.gs as they handle this part of development for you in a standardised way using pre-defined classes.
you should code like this : - http://tinkerbin.com/J9CCZXRL
CSS
#content {
background:pink;
width:500px;
padding:10px;
-moz-box-sizing:border-box;
overflow:hidden;
}
#header {
background:red;
height:100px;
}
#left {
background:green;
width:100px;
height:400px;
float:left;
}
#middle {
background:blue;
width:260px;
float:left;
height:400px;
margin-left:10px;
}
#right {
background:yellow;
width:100px;
float:right;
height:400px;
}
#footer {
background:grey;
height:100px;
clear:both;
}
HTML
<div id="content">
<div id="header"></div>
<div id="left"></div>
<div id="middle"></div>
<div id="right"></div>
<div id="footer"></div>
</div>
I have a simple CSS fixed width layout with a container and some backgrounds, and a three column design.
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div id="BGContainer">
<div id="PageContainer">
</div>
<div id="Content">
<div id="MainContent">
<asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="MainAreaContentPlaceholder" runat="server">
</asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
</div>
</div>
<div id="Bottom">
<div id="Copyright">
Copyright
</div>
</div>
</div>
</form>
</body>
In a different file, I have the content for the ContentPlaceHolder
<asp:Content ID="Content1" runat="server" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainAreaContentPlaceholder">
<div id="Heading">
Overskrift
</div>
<div id="LeftColumn">
/*Content Here*/
</div>
<div id="CenterColumn">
center
</div>
<div id="RightColumn">
right
</div>
</asp:Content>
The problem is that #MainContent is not resizing in height. It always stays the same height
CSS
html {
height:100%;
}
body {
margin:0;
width:100%;
height:100%;
font-family: Verdana, Sans-Serif;
background-image:url(../Gfx/Design/bg.png);
background-repeat:repeat;
}
#BGContainer {
margin:0px;
background-image:url(../Gfx/Design/Background-top-gradient.png);
background-repeat:repeat-x;
height:210px;
width:100%;
}
#PageContainer {
background-image:url(../Gfx/Design/top-gradient.png);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
height:100%;
width:1016px;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
}
#Bottom {
background-image:url(../Gfx/Design/Bottom.png);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
height:32px;
width:964px;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
}
#Content {
background-color:#FFFFFF;
background-image:url(../Gfx/Design/content-background.png);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
width:1000px;
height:100%;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
}
#MainContent {
width:980px;
height:100%;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
background-color:#FFFFFF;
}
#Copyright {
color:#000000;
font-size:xx-small;
text-transform:uppercase;
margin-left:50px;
padding-top:5px;
}
#LeftColumn {
width:311px;
margin-left:10px;
border: 1px solid gray;
min-height:400px;
float:left;
}
#CenterColumn {
width:311px;
margin-left:10px;
border: 1px solid gray;
min-height:400px;
float:left;
}
#RightColumn {
width:311px;
margin-left:10px;
margin-right:10px;
border: 1px solid gray;
min-height:400px;
float:right;
}
To clear the floats without any additional markup use overflow:hidden
#MainContent {overflow:hidden;zoom:1;}
The zoom:1 will invoke hasLayout in ie6 so the float will clear in ie6.
The three columns (#LeftColumn, #CenterColumn, #RightColumn) are all floats, so they will not increase the height of #MainContent. Try putting a div (which can be empty) just after those three with clear: both. That will force it to sit below the three columns, and #MainContent will be at least tall enough to include this new div.
If your problem is instead that #MainContent is too tall, note that it has height: 100%, which you could remove (and then apply the above fix). Hope that helps.
You need to clear the floated content.
Insert as follows:
<div id="MainContent">
<asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="MainAreaContentPlaceholder" runat="server">
</asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
... and the CSS:
.clear{clear:both}
use the <p> tag and your text will resize depending on content needs
<div style="width:400px; border-bottom:1px solid teal; padding:20px;">
<p>your text or database field here</p>
</div>
I use the tag when i want a div height to change depending on the amount of text inside.
This example will give you a nice results list when querying from database that places a border in-between results.
Probably because you have a height set on the #BGContainer - if you remove this you might find that the box expands with the text
