This is my code snippet :
Html
<div class="app-cont">
<div class="app-head">
Additional Comments :
</div>
<div class="app-main">
balallalalalallalalalala
<br/>
jaslnflkasnlsnlksanlknslnwkin
<br />
lknlkanfklnlk
</div>
</div>
CSS:
div {
color:white;
}
.app-cont {
background: black;
width: 90%;
padding-top: 2.5px;
padding-bottom: 2.5px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
-moz-border-radius: 5px;
border-radius: 5px;
}
.app-head {
background: #484848;
width: 25%;
margin-bottom: auto;
display: inline-block;
border-top-right-radius:2px;
-moz-border-top-right-radius:2px;
border-bottom-right-radius:2px;
-moz-border-bottom-right-radius:2px;
}
.app-main {
display: inline-block;
text-align: justify;
}
demo
It works till i dont add enough content on the div with class app-main. But when i add enough content in the div the div with class app-head gets to the bottom.
While i want it in the middle.
How can i do this ?
Just add vertical align style.
.app-head,.app-main{
vertical-align:middle;
}
You can use it on inline-block elements to position near other inline-block elements or near inline elements.
Well I wasn't sure entirely what the goal was, but if I understood you correctly, you wanted to keep the block holding the additional comments text in the middle of the text to the right?
I've updated your fiddle to see if I've got the solution you need: Updated Fiddle
I've positioned .app-head absolutely, and used a top:50% and a negative margin to keep it centred vertically. You also have to give .app-cont a relative position for this to work, and the comments section needs a left-margin slightly greater than the width of .app-head.
Anyway, hope that helps!
I did some other changes as well..
http://jsfiddle.net/Ues8Q/4/
..but the main idea is this:
Outer container has: position: relative;
The thing you want to center has: position: absolute; left: 0px; top: 50%; margin: -exactly half of the height of this element; height: whatever it is;
and requirement is that the element you want to center has fixed height...

I'm not very good at CSS, I guess that will we easy to one of you.
Look at image below, i'm trying to center my text but center it with the div parent's width, as if there was no button, but I don't know how to proceed.
<div class="parent" style="width:500px;">
<div class="container" style="width:400px;"> My text here </div>
<button style="width:100px;">My Button</button>
</div>
I tried :
.parent { text-align: center; }
but that center the text with the .container width (so at 200px) but i'm looking for a way to center it a 250px here (.parent width)
I think about doing that with a padding-left but that's not a "clean" method in my case because button is not always displayed.
If someone knows how can I do that please :)
image:
One option would be to use absolute positioning on the button!
.parent {
position: relative; // position the button within the parent div
}
button {
position: absolute;
right: 0;
top: 0; // or whatever, position it where you want it
}
.container {
padding-right: 100px; // so the text doesn't overlap with the button
padding-left: 100px; // so the text is balanced
text-align: center;
}
EDIT:
And when the button isn't needed, you could use a conditional on the parent --
.container--with-button {
padding-right: 100px;
padding-left: 100px;
}
.container--without-button {
padding: 0;
}
If I understand you right then all you'll need to do is add a text-align property to your div.
.div { text-align: center }
I made a quick example that matches your diagram here, hope it helps.

From what I see you only need to add display: block; to the .parent element. That way they'll be both displayed as a block and then all the text will be centered. ;)
Here is my code.
The HTML:
<div class=column1of4>
<a rel="Appendix" href="images/watermarks/watermark_pic1.jpg" title="Bottle in the mirror"><img src="images/250-width/pic1.jpg" alt="" width="250px" height="250px" id="Bottleinthemirrorpic"></a>
<span id="Bottleinthemirror" class="spanlink"><p>Bottle in the mirror<p></span>
</div>
<div class=column1of4>
<a rel="Appendix" href="images/watermarks/watermark_pic9.jpg" title="The empty glass"><img src="images/250-width/pic9.jpg" alt="" width="250px" height="250px"></a>
</div>
<div class=column1of4>
<a rel="Appendix" href="images/watermarks/watermark_pic10.jpg" title="The last drop"><img src="images/250-width/pic10.jpg" alt="" width="250px" height="250px"></a>
</div>
The CSS:
#Bottleinthemirror {
width: 250px;
height: 90px;
position: absolute;
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,.55);
margin-top: 10px;
color: white;
line-height: 20px;
font-size: 12px;
}
.column1of4 {
margin: 50px;
float: left;
}
The Javascript:
$('#Bottleinthemirror').hide();
$('#Bottleinthemirrorpic, #Bottleinthemirror').hover(function(){
//in
$('#Bottleinthemirror').show();
},function(){
//out
$('#Bottleinthemirror').hide();
});
Basically, I have three pictures, two of them beside each other and the third one is below the first one. Which I hover over the first picture, I want the #bottleinthemirror span to appear, which it does. The problem is, even when the span is hidden, it still rearranges the layout of the website and moves the picture below it to another place even though it's position is set to absolute. Any idea why? When I remove the span, the website layout is normal. It changes when I put in the span even though the spans position is absolute.
Probably the problem is that span can not contain p, and in your code there are technically 2 p elements in the span (both p tags are opening). When browsers fix this incorrect markup, part of the last p may appear outside the span. If there is a need to have p inside .spanlink, it's better to use div instead of span. But is the p really necessary here?
Add
display: block;
to
#Bottleinthemirror
I set this up in a jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/r2XG2/1/ and it appears to be working for me in Chrome. What browser are you in? I would try the following if it's still not working for you:
Set z-index: 100 to see if that will force it to appear over the other elements. You could also try setting the top or left values in css, that may also force it to appear in the correct place. Adding display: block; couldn't hurt either.
Edit: Updated fiddle with latest update from asker it also appears that IE won't load jsfiddle. I added position: relative to the parent div to see if that helps.
#Bottleinthemirror {
width: 250px;
height: 90px;
position: absolute;
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,.55);
margin-top: 10px;
color: white;
line-height: 20px;
font-size: 12px;
z-index: 100;
display: block;
}
.column1of4 {
margin: 50px;
float: left;
position: relative;
}
Just a simple image that uses some jQuery to fade some content over the top when moused over.
Only problem is that when the hover over takes effect, the hover spills into the div gutter making the hover over bigger than the actual container.
each image is layed out like so
<li class="large-4 columns item">
<div class="description"><h1>Image hover</h1></div>
<img class="display" src="http://placehold.it/400x300">
</li>
Can see a live example here.
http://jsfiddle.net/QLUMH/
Any ideas on ways to fix/improve what I am doing here? Cheers
Demo
Here you have live example,
you are giving 100% to width and height.
so that really goes overflow.
Code edited-
#portfolio .description {
position: absolute;
background: rgba(0,199,134,0.8);
display: none;
width: 400px;
height: 300px;
}
The issue is that your description fills the entire column, which is wider than your image. If you add an "inner column"/container that collapse to the same width as your image, it will work alright. I've created a fork of your demo that demonstrates this.
I've added a wrapper "ib" (Just stands for inner block. rename this to a proper name) inside each .column.item like so:
<div class="ib">
<div class="description">
<h1>Image hover</h1>
</div>
<img class="display" src="http://placehold.it/400x300">
</div>
And then just created a very simple CSS rule for making this wrapper collapse to its contents:
.ib {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
}
You did not style your li. The issue is that in foundation.css it is getting padding-left and padding-right. You need to remove that and use margin-left and margin-right instead. And you also need to fix the width of the li. As .description will get its 100% height. So you need to include a small css in your own file (don not modify foundation.css).
#portfolio li.columns{
/* You can use the width in '%' if you want to make the design fluid */
width: 400px;
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px 0.9375em;
}
Fiddle
You'll just have to get rid of the padding on tne li
li{ padding:0 }
or use the the box-sizing property:
`li { box-sizing:border-box; -moz-box-sizing:border-box; }
Change in CSs will help,
I have updated the same in fiddle
with change in CSS,
#portfolio .description {
position: absolute;
background: rgba(0,199,134,0.8);
display: none;
width: 400px;
height: 300px;
}
#portfolio .description h1 {
color: white;
opacity: 1;
font-size: 1.4em;
text-transform: uppercase;
text-align: center;
margin-top: 20%;
width:400px;
height:300px;
overflow:hidden;
}
Update:
If the H1 created extra cutter and wrapping issue(for some), please use the DIV tag instead, which should work fine!
I hope this will solve your problem :)
I have 2 divs inside a container, Each of the inside divs are floated to the left and right, I want to make 2 columns for data inside the main content div.
Currently, text leaks out the bottom of content-left and content-right, even though they are contained within content.
Here is a jsfiddle
<div id="content">
<div id="content-left">I want to put content in here<br/><br/><br/>This is outside? why? </div>
<div id="content-right">and more in here</div>
Maybe other content here, inside the content
</div>
And the CSS
#content-left{
width: 50%;
border: 1px dotted #aaa;
float: left;
}
#content-right{
width: 49%;
float: right;
border: 1px dotted #aaa;
}
#content{
background-color: #eee;
width: 95%; /* Width of Main Content Div, % for Fluid*/
height: auto;
max-width: 1350px; /*Max width, To wide on big monitor*/
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 10px;
padding-left: 20px;
padding-right: 20px;
}
Also, any tips about floating items would be great and might earn reps if I find them useful, I thought I had it mastered but obviously not! :P
You just need to add a clearing br inside the last div
Maybe other content here, but this should be below the 2 above divs in the rendered view.
<br style="clear:both;" />
</div>
http://jsfiddle.net/jasongennaro/sahbz/9/
This is happening because the floated elements are taken out of the document flow.
Currently, text leaks out the bottom of content-left and
content-right, even though they are contained within content.
You need to "clear/contain your floats", more information here: http://www.ejeliot.com/blog/59
One simple way to do that is to add overflow: hidden to #content.
See: http://jsfiddle.net/sahbz/8/
Pure CSS
.content:after {
clear: both;
content: '';
display: block;
}
I have a containing div that is NOT restricting the width of its child divs. The divs are stretching all the way to the full width of the screen, when i have a set width on both the container and the child. Why is this happening. I do NOT have any positioning or floating going on.
Please view my HTML:
<ul class="tabs_commentArea">
<li class="">Starstream</li>
<li class="">Comments</li>
</ul>
<div id="paneWrap">
<div class="panes_comments">
<div class="comments">member pane 1</div>
<div class="comments">member pane 2</div>
<div class="comments">member pane 3</div>
</div>
My CSS, the relevant parts of it at least:
#MembersColumnContainer {
width: 590px;
float: left;
padding-right: 0px;
clear: none;
padding-bottom: 20px;
padding-left: 2px;
}
ul.tabs_commentArea {
list-style:none;
margin-top: 2px !important;
padding:0;
border-bottom:0px solid #666;
height:30px;
}
ul.tabs_commentArea li {
text-indent:0;
margin: !important;
list-style-image:none !important;
padding-top: 0;
padding-right: 0;
padding-bottom: 0;
padding-left: 0;
float: right;
}
#paneWrap {
border: solid 3px #000000;
}
.panes_comments div {
display: ;
padding: px px;
/*border:medium solid #000000;*/
height:150px;
width: 588px;
background-color: #FFFF99;
}
You could set max-width on either, or both, of the div elements to prevent their expansion:
#containerDiv {
min-width: 400px; /* prevents the div being squashed by an 'extreme' page-resize */
width: 50%; /* defines the normal width of the div */
max-width: 700px; /* prevents the div expanding beyond 700px */
}
It might also be that you're allowing the div's overflowed contents to be visible, as opposed to hidden (or auto). But without specific examples of your mark-up and css it's very difficult to guess.
Generally giving elements layout is pretty straight forward (always assuming you have a good understanding of floating, positioning and the box model), and in most cases you wouldn't have to use max- min-width to control elements on the page.
My two cents: If I was you, I'd start stripping out code (starting with the !important rule), and see when the problem is solved. De-constructing the code like that is a good way to find bugs.
Sorry I couldn't help, but I'm reluctant to give advice since the code you provided shows a lot of other stuff going on elsewhere that might be contributing to your problem (like having to use !important).
:D
I figured out the problem. The file that was calling in the css was conflicting with another external css file that had the same element with the same name in it. Thank you all for your help though.
