I've tried so many things on this page

On the right column, I can't get a padding or margin of 10px between it and the left column without a scroll bar appearing. I've tried using a wrapper div but everything I do seems to bring the scroll bar :-/
The style I am focusing on
.subsection .inner {
padding-left: 10px;
}
in firefox
Add overflow:hidden to your body style.
Are you setting width and padding on the same element?
For example, if you have:
.subsection .inner {
width: 100%;
padding-left: 10px;
}
then the total width of the inner div will be 100% + 10px, which will result in a scroll bar.
If you want to remove scrollbar in horizontal direction, then use overflow-x: hidden; in that particular HTML element, keeping your vertical scrollbar intact.

I am trying to implement a grid onto this page. Because the Wordpress page uses overflow:hidden to the layout it will need to remain as is.
Out of curiosity, I tried
.content-container, .content {
overflow:visible
To see if it will reveal the entire grid that was cut off and it did, but also revealed what I am trying to hide through the layout, a spare bit of page.
Is there any way that I can reveal the whole grid without having to allow the overflow?
It cuts off the sides because .container's width is set to a fixed value of 1170px. If you set .container's width to 100% all content will be stretched.
.page-id-2099 .container {
width: 100%;
padding-right: 0px;
padding-left: 0px;
}
This will work:
.page-id-2099 .content-container, .page-id-2099 .content
{
overflow: visible !important;
}
I have a div which works to divide content up on my page. I need it to have horizontal padding and vertical margin to space out my content.
The problem is that the CMS puts this div on the page even when it doesn't have content. When this happens I need the div to behave as if it wasn't on the page and not add any spacing between the other divs which do have content.
When I tested this on my site it seemed like horizontal padding and vertical margin achieved this. However the demo below behaves differently:
div {
padding-left: 50px;
padding-right: 50px;
margin-top: 100px;
margin-bottom: 300px;
}

I can't seem to get these social buttons to fully right align. I've set the margins of the page to "0" and have set the alignment to right="0" - any ideas what else to do?
The url is: http://www.radiobootcamp.org/TEST.html
Thanks!
add
style="text-align:right"
to that twitter div
This will allow to align the social media buttons to the right.
The initial width of a block level element like div or p is auto. This makes it expand to occupy all available horizontal space within its containing block.
.twitter {
border: 0 none;
height: 150px;
position: fixed;
right: 5px;
top: 400px;
width: auto;
}
The thing is that they have float defined as left. I would suggest to add float:right !important; and if not working put each button in a different div with height:auto and width:auto and put float:right on that div container.
I currently have a footer that uses a 3 column layout with a fixed center and fluid sides in order to get a nice box shadow effect. When the window is too small however, it pushes the footer to the left, and messes everything up.
I can't seem to figure out how to make sure the footer divs do not get pushed around. I keep running into this problem with my layouts.
The layout I am working on is here, and a screencast showing the problem is here.
The easiest solution is simply to add min-width:980px to #container.
#container {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #A8D9A7;
height: 100%;
min-height: 100%;
position: relative;
z-index: 5;
min-width: 980px; /* add this */
}
The 980px figure comes from the width:960px + padding-left:10px + padding-right:10px of the #content-container.
The container element for your main page body (<div id="body">) has computed padding-left of 10px, and the second container element, (<div id="content-container">) adds another padding-left of 10px, meaning your main body is padded from the left by 20px.
Whereas the container for your footer (<div id="footer-container">) has computed padding-left of 0.
If you add this, it will fix your problem. #footer-container {padding: 0 20px;}
Revised as the above solution messed up bottom box-shadow.
In the #footer-left-outer { rule change:
margin-right:470px;
to:
margin-right:-490px;
In the #footer-right-outer { rule change:
margin-left:-470px;
to:
margin-left:-490px;
In the #footer { rule change:
padding: 10px 10px 10px 10px;
width: 940px;
to:
padding: 10px 30px;
width: 980px;
I now understand why you were using the outer-right and outer-left.
I found a different solution that includes the partial box-shadow effect:
http://jsfiddle.net/nottrobin/Cr4NF/10/
It avoids the need for footer-left-outer and footer-right-outer but I'll leave it up to you to decide if it's neater.
It makes use of :before which only works in IE8 onwards:

But then box-shadow doesn't work in IEs < 9 anyway:
http://caniuse.com/#search=box-shadow
Everything is wrapped in a div with an id="main_wrap"
the main wrap has this style:
#main_wrap{
margin:0 auto;
width:960px;
position:relative;
}
Since everything is wrapped inside of this div, I don't understand why a horizontal scroll bar would appear at the bottom.
If any of the children have borders, padding (or sometimes margins) applied to them, that adds to the width and height. Using overflow: hidden; would avoid the scroll bars. But, if something has too much width, you probably want to find where it is coming from to avoid possible problems in the future.
Note that you may be able to use box-sizing: border-box to prevent borders and padding from adding additional width (or height). This is particularly useful when you are using something like width: 100%, but width: 100% also isn't necessary in most cases - elements with display: block applied will fill the width by default AND keep padding and borders from adding additional width.
For example:
html, body { margin: 0; padding: 0; }
div {
background: #111;
color: #eee;
padding: 1em; /* This doesn't add to width - still at 100% width */
border: 2px solid #5e5; /* This also doesn't add to width - still at 100% width */
}
<div>Test</div>
Try add overflow hidden:
#main_wrap{
margin:0 auto;
width:960px;
position:relative;
overflow: hidden;
}
That should work (but is hacky).
If the elements are side by side and have a combined width or , as BDawg says margins or paddings, that cause it to exceed 960px a scroll bar could appear. Post your entire code and we can figure it out very quickly. Hiding the overflow should work but it would not really explain why the scroll bar is appearing. Giving us your entire markup will help find the root of the problem.
Somewhere you've left any DOM elements unseen which occupies the extra width. it's better to find and fix the children than to use overflow:hidden . overflow:hidden will hide the scroll bar if user zooms in the page.
Working 100%
if you are using bootstrap it takes
margin-left & right 15px (or) -15px
you need to change 15px to 0px
Example
.main_wrap .row{
margin-left:0px;
margin-right:0px;
}
If you change width to 100% it helped you, but if you don't want, just try add external <div style="width:100%"></div> like this:
<div style="width:100%">
<div class="main_wrap">
%your content%
</div>
</div>
