I'm trying to display a scrolling list inside a speed dial box but have a problem with the positioning
I want to know when the list object is too big to fit the box, but as far as I know, there's no way of getting the size of the box in pixels
how can I get the minimized mode to show exactly what it's seen in the normal mode but fitting the box?
this is the CSS I'm using right now
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
html {
height: 100%;
}
body {
background: #eee;
color: #444;
display: table;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
output {
position:absolute;
width: 100%;
white-space:nowrap;
font-family: monospace;
}
it works fine if I open the file in a tab, but in the speed dial it's displayed zoomed in
Opera's guide uses this query:
#media screen and (view-mode: minimized) { }
which controls the way it's displayed in the speed dial, I think. but I don't know what to put in there
UPDATE
well, I ended up creating an element and assigning a bottom value of 0
like this:
var bottom = document.createElement('div');
bottom.className= "ylimit";
document.body.appendChild(bottom);
and in CSS:
div.ylimit{
position:absolute;
bottom:0px;
}
then whenever I want to check or compare the height, I use bottom.offsetHeight

I cannot figure out how to get some basic CSS styles to apply to my blog. I'm trying to customize my blog summary page. I want the "read more" button centered and for the picture to show correctly. For some reason the picture keeps moving and it cuts it half off. I've tried multiple things to different classes and nothing works. It was originally on the left with the text to the right of the thumbnail and I'm moving the picture above the text if that means anything.
I've tried text align center for the button in multiple divs and it doesn't budge. Can anyone help? I can only adjust CSS not HTML on my Squarespace site, and the limited styles they give you doesn't allow me to adjust any of this. I'm not a coder, I just kinda understand it enough, so any help is appreciated.
Here is the page: https://www.themodernrenovator.com/blog
Here is custom CSS I added to make the button a circle, but can't get it to center:
text-align: center;
display: table;
width: 100px;
border-radius: 30px;
padding: 12px !important;
background-color: #f0ede9;
margin: auto;
}
.view-list article .excerpt-thumb {
width: 100%;
position: inherit;
}
.view-list article .excerpt-thumb .intrinsic .content {
position: inherit;
padding-bottom: 0px;
}
.intrinsic {
padding: 0px !important;
}
.entry-title {
text-align: center;
}
.article-dateline {
text-align: center;
}
article .post span.inline-action {
display: inline-block;
text-align: center;
}
.article-meta {
display: none;
}
I'd recommend centering the "READ MORE" button using the following CSS, inserted via the CSS Editor:
article .post span.inline-action {
display: inline-block;
text-align: center;
}
The "cut off" image problem, on the other hand, should not be corrected with CSS because it is an issue with Squarespace's ImageLoader function. To correct it, add the following via global Footer code injection. If code injection is not available to you, insert the code via a Markdown block in the footer of your website.
<script>
// Fix Squarespace ImageLoader Bug.
function fixImages() {
var images = document.querySelectorAll('img[data-src]');
var i = images.length;
while (i--) {
ImageLoader.load(images[i], {load: true});
}
}
fixImages();
window.Squarespace.onInitialize(Y, function() {
fixImages();
});
</script>
Your images are cut off because you have a top: value that's currently set to -300px. I can't tell where it's being affected just by looking at this, but somewhere in your styling you have the child img of your excerpt-image getting a top value being set.
To center your 'read more' link: .inline-read-more { margin: auto; }
So I'm trying to print (CTRL+P) a page. I have all the resets I need, so I don't need to worry about margin or padding around my document. However, I simply cannot get the size to match an A4 page. Here's what I have tried:
#media print {
.page {
height: 297mm;
width: 210mm;
margin: 30mm 10mm;
}
}
I have also tried:
#media print {
#page {
height: 297mm;
width: 210mm;
margin: 30mm 10mm;
}
}
I have also tried simply doing:
.page {
height: 297mm;
width: 210mm;
margin: 30mm 10mm;
}
But all of these simply won't make my print fit. When I throw a border: 1px solid #000 on my .page element, the page is pretty much 50% of the A4 page.
What I want to achieve is: I have 1-many .page elements. No matter how many there are, I NEVER want to print an empty page (like if one page suddenly is 1px too tall). How can I achieve something like this?
Some printers have default settings that can be set to print without edges. Try to look at printers settings when you try to print again. It has nothing to do with css all the time.
I'm trying to make a website that is essentially a few vertically positioned slides. I had been hoping to make a responsive design so my "slides" are appropriately resized on larger screen sizes or are padded appropriately in strange dimensions. Here is my LESS file setting the appropriate dimensions:
html, body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
//============================================================
// Dimensions for each section for standard desktop screen
//============================================================
#home {
#media screen and (min-aspect-ratio: 16/10) {
height: 92%;
width: 160vh;
padding: 0 calc(50% - 80vh);
}
#media screen and (max-aspect-ratio: 16/10) {
width: 100%;
height: 57.5vw;
}
}
#about {
#media screen and (min-aspect-ratio: 16/10) {
height: 108%;
width: 160vh;
padding: 0 calc(50% - 80vh)
}
#media screen and (max-aspect-ratio: 16/10) {
width: 100%;
height: 67.5vw;
}
}
#experience, #hobbies, #contact {
#media screen and (min-aspect-ratio: 16/10) {
height: 100%;
width: 160vh;
padding: 0 calc(50% - 80vh);
}
#media screen and (max-aspect-ratio: 16/10) {
width: 100%;
height: 62.5vw;
}
}
//============================================================
// colors
//============================================================
#home {
background-color: black;
}
#about {
background-color: #488BFF;
}
#experience {

#hobbies {

#contact {

}
It seems to work for the most part when I run it with a simple html file with the 5 divs (home, about, experience, hobbies, contact). However, on chrome, a bug seems to occur while I resize. Sometimes, my webpage simply disappears, replaced with some black/gray cross. If I resize very quickly (rapidly resizing the window), a checkerboard appears or even some other webpage completely on a different tab. I tried testing resizing another webpage also using media queries, and this problem did not happen. Is there something inherently wrong with how I'm using media queries?
EDIT: Sample images showing the strange problems:
After a long and arduous chat session, we have worked out a fix for the bug. Here is the summary:
What's Wrong
For some reason, Chrome has a problem rendering large divs. As of now, I'm not sure where the bug lies exactly, but a simple example with 5 100% width/height divs causes this strange problem. Here is a JSFiddle with this example. The bug only manifests outside of a frame, so you must copy the frame source into its own webpage.
From what I can gather, something strange is happening under the hood in Chrome's rendering engine on Windows, which causes the strange black & gray crosses to appear when resizing a window.
The Fix
The fix isn't very elegant, but it works. Simply apply a transform:rotate(0) on each of the divs to force gpu acceleration. With this, the cross vanishes. Here is the resulting JSFiddle that applies this fix on the previous example.
TL;DR
When Chrome isn't rendering the pages with the graphics card, strange things occur. Use transform:rotate(0) on broken items to force graphic card rendering.
I have a div called wrapper with this CSS:
.wrapper {
width: 960px;
min-height: 720px;
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: center;
background: url(images/bg-light.png) no-repeat;
padding-top: 20px;
}
which is located in the body. Body's CSS:
body {
background: #232323 url(images/bg.png) repeat;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
}
There are HTML 5 elements which are displayed in block-level. Here is their CSS:
header, nav, article, section, aside, footer, address {
display: block;
}
I'm trying to make the whole page smaller. I mean like if you click Ctrl/- in your browser.
So what's the best way to reduce the size of the page? How to show it as 67%(for instance) of it's size now.
If it is just for the effect of a modal or something, that's the only reason i can think of why you would want to do this.
You can use the non-cross-browser
body{
-webkit-transform: scale(0.67);
-moz-transform: scale(0.67);
transform: scale(0.67);
}
Documentation
This sounds like a job for CSS transform:
.SmallerPage{
-webkit-transform:scale(0.67);
-moz-transform:scale(0.67);
-ms-transform:scale(0.67);
transform:scale(0.67);
-ms-transform-origin:0 0;
-webkit-transform-origin:0 0;
-moz-transform-origin:0 0;
transform-origin:0 0;}
In this jsFiddle, I use jQuery to add or remove this class to the body:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#DoResize').click(function () {
if ($('html').hasClass('SmallerPage')) {
$('html').removeClass('SmallerPage');
} else {
$('html').addClass('SmallerPage');
}
});
});
This will not work in IE8 and under because it doesn't support transforms. If you want to resize the whole page, only transform will do it; otherwise you need CSS switching to make it work in IE8 and under.
Don't set size in px, that makes elements fixed size. You can use %, em etc. Then for the outer div or the whole body, you can set the size you want, maybe px. So, when you change the size of outermost div, all contents will resize automatically.
You can use jQuery 2d transform plugin instead, It's safe and cross-browser
just you should write:
$('your_contents').css("scale",0.5);
Or you can animate your contents by
$('your_contents').animate({"scale":1});
I am building a webapp in .net using some of the AJAX features; in this case it is TabContainer.
Below is a screenshot of the area I want to play with.
The menu on the left is the tabs of TabContainer. The right side is tab's content. I would like to have the "Update PCR" button to be right underneath "Disciplines Affected". The problem is that the left and right side are a part of ONE block, which is TabContainer.
Are there any suggestions to how would I format the CSS of the Button to align right underneath TabContainer's menu? I could add the button as a part of the menu but, then I would have to set the control to AutoPostback, which defeats its purpose in this case in the first place... Any suggestions would be appreciated!
EDIT:
Here is the existing CSS
.ajax_tabController .ajax__tab_tab
{
background-color: #3c6f91;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #ffffff;
color:#ffffff;
border-left: 3px solid #5AB0DB;
}
.ajax_tabController .ajax__tab_hover .ajax__tab_tab
{
background-color:#5AB0DB;
text-decoration:none;
}
.ajax_tabController .ajax__tab_active .ajax__tab_tab
{
background-color:#5AB0DB;
text-decoration: underline;
}
Also, there is CSS that overrides some settings to make TabContainer Vertical instead of Horizontal. I know, that there is a property .UseVerticalStripPlacement but it messes up with the height of the control and throws a JavaScript error.
.ajax__tab_header
{
float: left;
}
.ajax__tab_body
{
margin-left: 160px;
}
.ajax__tab_outer
{
display: block !important;
}
.ajax__tab_tab
{
width: 210px;
height: auto !important;
}
You need to position the top of the button relative to the bottom of the tab elements. This can be done with jquery. See How to position one element relative to another with jQuery?
It's going to be a bit hit and miss, but try something along the lines of:
.updatePcrButton {
position: absolute;
top: 100px; /* These will be whatever the measurement is to */
left: 5px; /* be directly under the last element */
z-index: 99; /* Arbitrary amount to put it above any other elements */
}
This is pretty messy to be honest - it relies on your not changing the position of the control thereafter.
Perhaps a better way would be to add an extra tab to the TabContainer and handle any Tab clicks yourself.
-- Edit -- May be more useful --
Nikita, I had completely forgotten about this as it was in an old Classic ASP app of mine, but you could try these two JS functions that are probably more useful to you:
function curTop(obj){
rv = 0;
while(obj) {
rv += obj.offsetTop;
obj = obj.offsetParent;
}
return rv;
}
function curLeft(obj){
rv = 0;
while(obj) {
rv += obj.offsetLeft;
obj = obj.offsetParent;
}
return rv;
}
They pull the position from the specified object. If you add the height of the button that you want to position under then you may find this improves the location for you and prevents any funny business with CSS.
Kind regards,
Westie.
