How to center several divs displayed with float left - css

I have the following:
<footer id="contentinfo" class="footer">
<div class="networking_wrapper">
<div style="float: left;"><img src="#Url.Content("~/Content/Images/twitter.png")"/></div>
<div style="float: left;"><img src="#Url.Content("~/Content/Images/flicker.png")"/></div>
<div style="float: left;"><img src="#Url.Content("~/Content/Images/facebook.png")"/></div>
<div style="float: left;"><img src="#Url.Content("~/Content/Images/blog.png")"/></div>
</div>
</footer>
How can I make .networking_wrapper to be centered on #contentinfo (which is a width 100% of the view because, as you can see, is the footer of the page).

Resolved!
Just had to add text-align:center; to the <footer>
and set .networking_wrapper display: inline-block.
Hope it helps someone =)

Allow image to overflow horizontally in a div

I have a grid section in which I show posts and I display photos and text. However, no photos are the same size and that is inevitable so I try to make them the same size. I cut to the chase, the problem is the width:auto; stretches the image horizontally.
<div class="item_grid item2">
<div class="panel">
<div style="height:50px; overflow:hidden;">
<h4 class="recent-post-header">
Title
</h4>
</div>
<div style="height:300px; overflow:hidden;">
//Problem is Here
<img src="/Image" alt="img_preview" style="height:100%; width:auto; " /> /
</div>
<div style="height:100px; overflow:hidden">
<div class="clearfix post_date">
<span class="pull-left">DateCreated</span>
</div>
<p>Description</p>
</div>
<p> Read More <i class="icon-angle-right"></i></p>
</div>
</div>
Is there any way to allow the width of the image overflow and then hide it?
use
<img src="/Image" alt="img_preview" style="height: 100%; width: 100%; object-fit: cover" >
eventhoug ie doesnt support object-fit
Short and straightforward answers
style="height:100%; object-fit: cover;"

Put text in Div sticky to bottom of window

I have an h4 nested in 2 divs like so
<div id="my-team-lineup" style="text-align:center">
<div id="myteamDiv" style="width:100%; ">
<div id="myTeamBeforeDiv" style="width:50%; float: left;">
<center>
<h4>Before Trade</h4>
<div class="tableRow header blue" id="statTable0">
<div class="cell">Pos</div>
<div class="cell">Players</div>
<div class="cell">Opp</div>
<div class="cell">Proj Pts</div>
</div>
<div class="tableRow">
<div class="cell">
Text
</div>
<div class="cell">
Text
</div>
<div class="cell">
Text
</div>
<div class="cell">
Text</div>
</div>
<br />
<h4>Week At Bottom</h4>
</center>
</div>
</div>
I want to have this h4 sticky to the bottom of the page. I have tried every combination of position and bottom I can think of and nothing is working. Just a note as I have an exact replica of this that takes up the other 50% of the page, and the height of the divs can be different due to content.
First, you didn't closed all divs in your code. correct it.
You can set position as fixed and bottom as 0.
HTML
<h4>text</h4>
CSS
h4{
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
}

Unable to set div margin-top

I tried the following html code (an example from w3schools site):
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<div id="container" style="width:500px">
<div id="header" style="background-color:#FFA500;">
<h1 style="margin-bottom:0;">Main Title of Web Page</h1>
</div>
<div id="menu" style="background-color:#FFD700;height:200px;width:100px;float:left;">
<b>Menu</b><br />
HTML<br />
CSS<br />
JavaScript
</div>
<div id="content" style="background-color:#EEEEEE;height:200px;width:400px;float:left;">
Content goes here
</div>
<div id="footer" style="background-color:#FFA500;clear:both;text-align:center;margin-top:20px">
Copyright © W3Schools.com
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
And this is the output:
I need to add a space between the sections #footer and #content, and as you can see I tried using the margin-top attribute, but any value I use (in my example 20px) does not change the result: there is no space between the two sections.
How can I solve this problem?
Another reason why floats suck as much as they rock.
You can add an empty div in between the footer and the content like...
//content html
<div style='clear:both;'></div>
//footer html
http://jsfiddle.net/rK5zV/1/
Or you can make the footer a float also with a width of 100% like...

Why top margin of html element is ignored after floated element?
You can add to content margin-bottom:20px;
<div id="content" style="background-color:#EEEEEE;height:200px;width:400px;float:left;margin-bottom: 20px;">
You can place all your elements apart from the footer in a wrapper that has margin-bottom: 20px:
<body>
<div id="container" style="width:500px">
<div id="wrapper" style="margin-bottom: 20px; border: 1px solid black; width: 100%; float: left;">
<div id="header" style="background-color:#FFA500;">
<h1 style="margin-bottom:0;">Main Title of Web Page</h1>
</div>
<div id="menu" style="background-color:#FFD700;height:200px;width:100px;float:left;">
<b>Menu</b><br>
HTML<br>
CSS<br>
JavaScript
</div>
<div id="content" style="background-color:#EEEEEE;height:200px;width:400px;float:left;">
Content goes here
</div>
</div>
<div id="footer" style="background-color:#FFA500;clear:both;text-align:center;">

</div>
</div>
</body>
Here is a jsFiddle that demonstrates the behavior.
I gave your footer relative positioning and used the top attribute
Here is a working DEMO
<div id="container" style="width:500px">
<div id="header" style="background-color:#FFA500;">
<h1 style="margin-bottom:0;">Main Title of Web Page</h1>
</div>
<div id="menu" style="background-color:#FFD700;height:200px;width:100px;float:left;">
<b>Menu</b><br />
HTML<br />
CSS<br />
JavaScript
</div>
<div id="content" style="background-color:#EEEEEE;height:200px;width:400px;float:left;">
Content goes here
</div>
<div id="footer" style="background-color:#FFA500;clear:left;text-align:center;position:relative;top:20px">

Try making footer display: inline-block; width: 100%. It's not ideal, but it works.
After two blocks with styles float you should to use element with style cler:both;
You code view like this
<div id="content">
...
</div>
<div style="clear:both;"></div>
<div id="footer">
...
</div>

div containing 2 floating divs

need your help. I created a div that contains 2 floating DIVs. The first Div would be the leftnav. The second Div contains 2 floating DIVs too. The problem #container div height set to auto but not seem to work.
here: jsfiddle
I tried the clear:both at the end of the second div, but it didn't work.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
<div id="header">header</div>
<div id="container">
<div id="first">first</div>
<div id="second">
<div id="scol1">
<div id="scol1a">scol1a</div>
<div id="scol1b">scol1b</div>
<div id="scol1c">scol1c</div>
</div>
<div id="scol2">
<div id="scol2a">scol2a</div>
<div id="scol2b">scol2b</div>
<div id="scol2c">scol2c</div>
</div>
</div><!--SECOND DIV-->
<br style="clear: both;" />
</div> <!--CONTAINER DIV-->
<div id="footer">footer</div>
change scol1 height to auto as well. http://jsfiddle.net/Y47sx/31/
You have given 100px height to scol1a, scol1b, scol1c. This causes container having problem. To solve this you should define your #container height: 306px; (100+100+100+6)= 306px. 6px for border.
See this Demo
Note: I have removed <br style="clear: both;" />
In stand of <br style="clear: both;" /> use <div style="clear:both; float:none;"></div> and remove height of <div id="scol1"></div> <div id="scol2"></div>

CSS 100% width in floated div

<div style="float:left">
<div class="designerWrapper">
<div class="pageBox">
content
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div style="float:left; margin-left:10px;">
content 2
</div>
<div style="clear:both"></div>
<br /><br />
How do I make the div that holds content 2 100% width? If I set it to 100% width it is too wide, at the moment it expands with it's contents length.
you sould use the table stuff
<div id="outer1">
<div id="outer2">
<div id="left"></div>
<div id="right"></div>
</div>
</div>
css:
#outer1 {display:table;width:600px;height:30px;}
#outer2 {display:table-row;width:600px;height:30px;}
#left {display:table-cell; width:15px;}
#right {display:table-cell; width:auto;}
important there is no floating! because the table display floats the cells automatically.
i didnt test the code hope works.
You can set min-width depend upon your requirement.
later on it will expand with its content
<div style="float:left; margin-left:10px;min-width:110px;">
content 2
</div>
