I´m making a website with the following css. Everytime I change the resolution on my computer, the text under the #info div gets mangled up. How can I fix that? Thanks.
#container {
background-image:url('pic.png');
height: 541px;
width: 1020px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
#musicplayer {
margin-top:90px;
display:inline;
}
#info {
position: absolute;
top: 29em;
left: 38em;
}
if you can go on the javascript side, use something like jquery and recompute your lengths. There is a stackoverflow entry for this:
jQuery Screen Resolution Height Adjustment
If you can not use javascript, I suppose using percentage to set top and left is an easy fix:
http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_pos_top.asp
This bits of javascript also shows you how to change the font size:

since I would say this is related to the question.

I have created an html document. Inside this I've imported an image under a paragraph. But whenever I change the resize my browser. The image disappears by moving below the page.
The image is given inside a card.
.Card{
border:none;
font-family: 'NCS Radhiumz';
border-radius: 15px;
background-color: #000000;
width:90%;
height: 85%;
margin-left: 80px;
padding-left: 5%;
padding-right: 5%;
I just want everything on the page to resize without disappearing from the page. I'm very new to coding.
Anybody know how to fix it?
What you're most likely missing is some styling on your image element. Try this in your css file:
img {
width: 100%;
object-fit: contain;
}
You can experiment with different ways to fit the image in your component. Check out these docs for some options.
you're asking for responsive web design. You can achieve that by implementing CSS Media Query.
Learning source:
https://www.w3schools.com/css/css_rwd_mediaqueries.asp
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Media_Queries/Using_media_queries
If you want your image to be in one place and don't move you can do that with position style in css like so:
.element {
position: fixed;
}
or
.element {
position: absolute;
}
But image moving below is normal since the browser can't fit the image besides the text.
If you want your image to behave differently you can do that by using #media query and manually write how the app should change based on screen width/height. But generally the best way to do so is using flex-box or grid, since the browser automatically does object moving for you.
With the help of the nice people here I got a reasonably decent mock-up: http://jsfiddle.net/CecilWesterhof/4kLwK/2
In the middle there is a main document and besides this there is a comment section.
It looks reasonable, but there are two problems with it.
When the document becomes less high, the position of the comments is not really correct. It should be top, middle and bottom. But currently (in FireFox, which is the most important) when the document height is lowered the middle section gets into the bottom section.
What should I change in this code?
The other problem is the next button. I would like to have it on the right, but I did not get this to work.
I tried:
button.next {
background: #84a0C4;
border-radius: 10px;
clear: both;
color: #FFFFFF;
float: right;
font-size: 200%;
overflow: hidden;
}
But that places the button at the right, but also makes the comment section bigger and gives you a scrollbar when you do not need one.
EDIT
For the button problem I found a hack. Using the above style and adding a few breaks like:
<button class="next" id="next">Next</button>
<br/><br/><br/>
solves the button problem. Not really neat, so if there is a better way …
To see the problem with the float without the hack:
How it looks in FF under Linux without the hack http://decebal.nl/images/2014-04-30ButtonRightProblem.png
About the alignment problem, this picture displays it:
wrong alignment http://decebal.nl/images/2014-04-30AlignProblem.png
Questioning is merged into ‘Always check for a reference’ instead of being halfway between ‘Be short …’ and ‘Always check …’.
You have to pick minimum min-height for your comment div, as you will always have an issue with that.
Also I've found some weird positioning logic in your css file including tranformations of Y scale... No idea why you need that. It'll probably cause many troubles in IE browsers.
Anyway, here is the fiddle -> http://jsfiddle.net/4kLwK/7/
and in a summary my modifications of the CSS file:
added:
#comment
{ position:relative;
min-height:250px;
height:100%;
}
modified:
.middle {
position: absolute;
border:1px solid red;
top: 40%;
}
.bottom {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0px;
}
Edit:
With one little addition it did the trick.
.bottom {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0px;
width: 99%; /*
In this way the button stays right.
I'm currently trying to optimize a Wordpress site for mobile devices, but I'm struggling with getting the footer of the site to cooperate. The site is here:
http://whitehallrow.com/
When loaded on mobile, the width of the body shrinks in accordance with the screen size and wraps all the contained text within it. However, the footer keeps its width, which I understand is because the width is hard-coded to look good on a computer screen. I've made a media query in the CSS that targets devices with screens 500 pixels wide or smaller, in order to get the footer to resize to the width of the body. Here is a snippet of my CSS that I've been tweaking:
#media screen and (max-width: 500px) {
#customfooter{
width:100%;
}
}
For whatever reason, this is not working - it still shows the footer as being much wider than the body. I've tried max-width:100%, width:auto; max-width:auto, and none of them work.
How do I achieve this without hard-coding anything?
Change your CSS from
#teakfooter {
width: 100%;
}
#verybottom {
width: 100%;
}
add a class so this gets higher priority
.page #teakfooter {
width: 100%;
}
.page #verybottom {
width: 100%;
}
I tried it out using Firebug and it seems to be working well like this.
Edit: After going over a few more things in the comments, I noticed a couple of things causing the footer to not fill out.
.site {
padding: 0 1.71429rem;
}
This is causing #customer footer to have padding on both sides.
#teakfooter {
margin-left: -40px;
}
This is causing #teakfooter to have whitespace on the right side.
also in firebug you can check METRICS (in right column you have Computed Styles, Styles, Metrics, etc.). In METRICS you will see that around your body there is a padding: 24px;
Solution:
body {
padding: 0;
}
I came across the website http://www.swiftkey.net.
On my widescreen I see the gray background on the sides of the content area..On my regular(1024x768) the grey bars are not there.
How do they acheive this effect?
Using firebug, I was able to decipher what I think MIGHT be doing this:
.w1 {
float: left;
width: 1600px;
position: relative;
left: 50%;
}
.w2 {
float: left;
width: 1600px;
position: relative;
}
I do have experince with CSS and HTML, but the above code is a little bit cryptic to me, especially considering w2 is inside w1.
I'm answering this under the assumption that the grey bars you're talking about are the ones shown in the second sample image:
The simple answer is that the page uses a wrapper with a static maximum width that is horizontally centered:
#wrapper {
max-width: 1000px;
margin: 0 auto; //centers a block element
}
The grey bars are created by having a background color on the <body> or <html> elements:
body {
background-color: #888;
}
I haven't checked the source to see where these styles are specifically set, I'll leave that as an exercise for the reader.
This has to accomplished with javascript screen object
var scr=window.screen;
var availwidth=scr.availWidth;
var width=scr.width;
var availh=scr.availHeight;
var height=scr.height;
availWidth and availHeight gives actual available width and height, considering taskbars and scrollbars etc.
width and height give the actual screen resolution. Then access the variables and decide the type of layout.
However adjusting anything to center is easy
div
{
width:1024px;
position:absolute;
left:50%;
margin-left:-512px;
}
the javascript screen width tracing is for more control options
I am in a big of an issue here with a design I am trying to set up. Here is the website for a reference;
http://throwbackhero.com/index1.php
The problem is that I set the body to height: 100%; in the stylesheet and on the #wrapper div as well. The height goes off the current page height and does not take into account that there are other divs that could cause overflow.
I would like, a blank page to be the size of the browser even if the vertical size of the browser is changed, the content/wrapper div will shrink to accommodate.
Can this be done?
EDIT
Okay so clearly my original question was extremely confusing. Here is a picture;
So, in pic 1 (the left) is the issue. With height 100%; on the wrapper and content divs, it is creating that bad boy. I want it to look like picture, where the white/gray area grows/shrinks depending on the size of the browser...
The easiest way is simply using CSS:
height: 100vh;
Where 'vh' stands as vertical height of the browser window.
Responsive to resizing of brower and mobile devices.
Give body,HTML & main DIV height 100%. write like this:
body,html{height:100%;}
.parent{
min-height:100%;
width:400px;
margin:0 auto;
background:red;
}
Check this http://jsfiddle.net/3VUGt/
The answer from #sandeep is correct. The best way of controlling the most basic container of display in the browser is to control html/body.
Normally, I need the same structure as you design:
1. the content should stay inside the container without overflow scroll, and
2. the container should resize as 100% while the browser is resizing.
So the basic way of doing it is:
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
And I always set the basic container fit both height and width:
html, body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
NOTE: there could a margin/padding issue for some browser (as user agent stylesheet):
which add a style for some of basic component like body in default (e.g. Chrome 70.0.3538.102):
body {
display: block;
margin: 8px;
}
Check within the developer mode, if that happens, add margin override, this also works for padding:
html, body {
margin: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
And if your page base component looks like:
<body>
<div id="div1">
my html content ...
</div>
</body>
You could just do:
html, body {
margin: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
#div1 {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
This always work for me. Hope it helps. And down here is what I guessed that the target you want to reach.
html, body {
margin: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
#div1 {
position: relative;
width: 60%;
height: 100%;
background-color: rgb(255,125,125);
float: left;
}
#div2 {
position: relative;
width: 40%;
height: 100%;
background-color: rgb(125,255,125);
float: left;
}
<div id="div1"> layer 1 </div>
<div id="div2"> layer 2 </div>
Add overflow:auto to the wrapper element.
There is no complete CSS solution for this problem. This CSS "issue" has been known for many years. Since CSS has grown in functionality over the years, I thought there may be a complete CSS solution by now. But alas, there is not. I have tried many things and have searched high and low, and the issue remains the same.
To my knowledge, there are only 3 solutions that do not require 3rd party libraries: absolute positioning, faux colums (two-tone repeating background) and JS.
The only two solutions that appeal to me are: faux columns and JS. I prefer the JS solution, since it makes more use of CSS. With JS you don't have to re-work the background image if you want to change the column width or color later on. It is a more adaptable and re-useable solution. The only advantage I can see for creating faux columns is that your layout doesn't break if the client disables JS.
JS solution (wrapper not required): https://jsfiddle.net/Kain52/uec9cLe4/
var side1 = document.getElementsByTagName('main')[0];
var side2 = document.getElementById('mainMenu');
var side1Height = side1.clientHeight;
var side2Height = side2.clientHeight;
if(side2Height < side1Height) { side2.style.height = side1Height + "px"; }
else { side1.style.height = side2Height + "px"; }
JS solution (wrapper required): https://jsfiddle.net/Kain52/7udh55zq/
var wrapperHeight = document.getElementById('innerWrapper').clientHeight;
document.getElementsByTagName('main')[0].style.height = wrapperHeight + "px";
document.getElementById('mainMenu').style.height = wrapperHeight + "px";
Explanation: If you use a div wrapper then you can assign it to the height of the wrapper. If you don't use a wrapper, then you can just set the height of the shortest side to the height of the longest side. If you know that your side menu bar will always be shorter than your content, then you only need two lines of code:
var contentHeight = document.getElementsByTagName('main')[0].clientHeight;
document.getElementById('mainMenu').style.height = contentHeight + "px";
If you are okay with having some JavaScript run every millisecond on your page, and the content above the white area in question will always be the same pixel height, you could try something along the lines of this...
bodyLeadingFill = // put the size taken up by everything above the white div,
// including margin, padding, border, etc
function resizeElement(){
document.getElementById(/* name of white element here */).style.height = (window.innerHeight - bodyLeadingFill) * (/* put the % size you need here */ / 100) + "%";
}
window.setTimeout(resizeElement, 0);
This is, of course, assuming that the content above the white box will always be the same size no matter the font or operating system or size of the window.
I didn't actually test this myself, but the concept should work. Look out for the comments that say where to put some info.
