I want to create an optimized structure for following output in HTML.
rite now i m using this structure :
<div>
<div style="float:left; padding:5px;">
<img src="avatar_url">
</div>
<div style="float:left; padding:5px;">
Name <br />
Current Mood
</div>
<div class="clr"></div>
<div align="right">
Online Status
</div>
</div>
but in some cases i have to display thousands of friends on one single page thats why i m trying to optimize the structure and remove unnecessary tags from the code.
Can you not paginate the results?
<div class="user">
<img src="avatar.gif" class="user-avatar" />
<h1 class="user-name">Name</h1>
<h2 class="user-mood">Current mood.</h2>
<div class="user-status">Online Status</div>
</div>
This is technically a few less tags however...
This is quite a bit simpler. Depending on how fancy you need to get, almost everything can be stripped away:
<div class="friend">
<img ... />
<hx>FULL NAME</hx>
<p>Current Mood</p>
<p class="status">Online Status</p>
</div>
The hx part is just a stand-in for whatever level of heading you would want to use for their name.
Here's some very minimal CSS to go with that:
.friend img { float:left; margin-right:5px; }
.status { text-align:right; }
Aside from removing the div around the avatar img (can you set the float/padding on the img element itself?), there isn't a lot you can do.
However, you can optimise the amount of text by creating a class for float: left; padding: 5px and using that class instead of the full style thousands of times.
You can't delete a lot there, but you surely can replace the style attribute with a class one
class="left"
with
.left { float:left;padding:5px; }
And you can also replace
<div class="clr"></div>
with
<div class="clr" />
Anyway, not much will change in the loading times.

I have my profile image and below it I want to place my name and a few things about me. I don't know what to use for the image div or if I even need a div for it. Are the h1 and p elements used properly?
Snippet
<div class="profile">
<div><img src="profile_image.jpg"></div>
<h1>first last</h1>
<p>Coffee snob.</p>
</div>
Full Body HTML
<body>
<div class="page">
<div class="profile">
<div><img src="profile_image.jpg"></div>
<h1>first last</h1>
<p>Coffee snob.</p>
</div>
<div class="sites">
<ul>
<li><img src=""> <img src=""></li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</body>
The rest of the site are just app icons taking to my social media sites. There's no other content. My site also doesn't have a header or footer. Not sure if my profile class should be considered the header at this point for good SEO.
You do not need to put the div around the image. Just style it to display: block (img defaults to display: inline)
<div class="profile">
<img style="display: block" src="profile_image.jpg">
<h1>first last</h1>
<p>Coffee snob.</p>
</div>
Otherwise, the rest of the code is perfectly fine.
It does depend of what exactly you want to do with it but if I understand your question.
You don't need divs for your image just set up different image classes in your CSS.
.image1
{
width:100px;
height:100px;
}
Then your HTML would look like
<img src="profile_image.jpg" class="image1">
Check out http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_align.asp for more information about how to actually set up alignments in your CSS
It might be worth using a div to style your text into a block or format it to look nice, etc. But you don't need to do it
http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_div.asp for div styling .
And finally abit of personal experience, spend an hour or 2 looking through W3Schools CSS section and learning the basics of styling it's a great way to learn the basic tools you need to work with CSS and make your pages look good !
Edit styling text
<h1>first last</h1>
<p>Coffee snob.</p>
so first you could style them in your css as the elements they are
h1
{
text-align:left;
padding-left: 10px;
text-decoration: underline;
}
p
{
text-align: right;
}
Doing thing your HTML would look exactly as it is you wouldn't have to change anything. Obviously this is something you can only do once for all <p> and <h1> content and every time you use those tags without specifying a class for them it'll look exactly like whatever the above CSS is.
The other option is to do what I suggested with the image and give them a unique class.
p.body
{
text-align: right;
}
Here you'll need to add class to <p> jsut like you did for image which will look like
<p class="body">Coffee snob.</p>
Hope that helps !
Essentially, what I have in mind is a bunch of div elements, and I want to alternate colours. I could do this using IDs, but I want to use classes to minimize the amount of extra (and potentially spaghetti) code needed.
<div id="divs">
<div class="bla">
</div>
<hr/>
<div class="bla">
</div>
</div>
I've already tried nth-child, but it didn't work.
Edit: And I want to keep the hr.
You need to remove the <hr> element, see this fiddle
HTML
<div id="divs">
<div class="bla">bla</div>
<div class="bla">bla</div>
</div>
CSS
div.bla:nth-child(even) {
background-color: #CCC;
}
div.bla:nth-child(odd) {
background-color: #FFF;
}
I have a DIV that I want to use to display some formatted content in. However, I have problems with some text TAGs inside the DIV.
You can see my problem in jsfiddle.
Can you please help me solve this?
I need the content of the second "column" to be able to word-wrap and when it would do that, I want the next "line" to be moved down so it would not overlap it.
Basically I want to text to look normal inside the DIV.
<div class="container-right">
<div class="topul" style="background-color:#2ecc71; width:352px;"></div>
<div class="parent" style="min-width:350px; width:350px; height:445px;">
<p class="myp" style="color:#2ecc71; font-size:2em; margin-bottom:0px"> <b>Worker information</b>
</p>
<div class="topul2" style="float:left; background-color:#2ecc71;"></div>
<div class="d-table">
<div class="d-tablerow">
<div class="d-tablecell" style="text-align:right; width:30%">
<p class="myp3" style="color:#2ecc71">Name:
<p>
</div>
<div class="d-tablecell" style="text-align:left; width:70%;">
<p class="myp4" style="color:#2ecc71"><b>Some name</b>
</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="d-tablerow">
<div class="d-tablecell" style="text-align:right; width:30%">
<p class="myp3" style="color:#2ecc71;">Address:</p>
</div>
<div class="d-tablecell" style="text-align:left; width:70%;">
<p class="myp4" style="color:#2ecc71; display:inline-block"><b>Here goes a long text as address that does not word-wrap and exits the DIV</b>
</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="d-tablerow">
<div class="d-tablecell" style="text-align:right; width:30%">
<p class="myp3" style="color:#2ecc71">Other info:</p>
</div>
<div class="d-tablecell" style="text-align:left; width:70%;">
<p class="myp4" style="color:#2ecc71; "><b>Here is other information</b>
</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
You can see the CSS in the jsfiddle link above.
I give up... I am a newbie with CSS and HTML and so far this is done manually by me after digging on google. But now I have no idea how to solve this.
Please help.
Thanks
The problem is with your .myp4 styles
To avoid the overlap remove height: 2px;
To avoid bleeding from the div set max-width: 200px;
As mentioned above set heights are a bit of a nightmare unless you're going for a specific look. It's better to use min-height or max-height
NOTE: You should seriously split all your CSS into a separate file rather than having them in the elements
Also is there a particular reason for you to use crazy displays? You could achieve the same effect easily by having a div wrapping two other divs that are float left. display: block; will give you less of a hard time if you're a newbie. Aim for less code, not more.
Try setting min-height instead of height on the rows and/or cells.
The width of the table is the culprit, it's allowing its children to run wild on your page. .d-table {
width: 350px;
}
I want to style the following CSS classes; is there any short styling technique for this?
.test-0 { }
.test-2 { }
.test-3 { }
/* etc. */
I am looking for something like:
.test-%d% { }
I want to dynamically create many test-* classes with different numbers and common styles.
Update
here is my actual situation
<input type="button" value="click" class="button_class" />
<h1 class="ui-widget-header">Question - 1 </h1>
<div class="ui-widget-content">
<div id="form_container-0">
<div class="placeholder">Add your form fields here</div>
<div style="clear: both;"></div>
</div>
</div>
When user click the above button then same structure will clone and append to the end of the form
so the form will be as
<h1 class="ui-widget-header">Question - 1 </h1>
<div class="ui-widget-content">
<div id="form_container-0">
<div class="placeholder">Add your form fields here</div>
</div>
<div id="form_container-1">
<div class="placeholder">Add your form fields here</div>
</div>
</div>
the css class form_container-[%d] will be created dynamically by jquery.
so i want to add style to this class.
also it would be great if you share optimised code for cloning the structure with
different ID.
Please do let me know if you still have doubt.
thanks
You can use an attribute selector.
div[class*='test-'] {...}
I think #Ed W have the right solution BUT I have an extra idea while is not straight forward is shorter than what you have. And will help to make different testing that is waht I think you want... fiddel http://jsfiddle.net/ncubica/2sj9W/
css
.test-1,
.test-2,
.test-3,
.test-4,
.test-5{
color:#F60;
display:block;
}
.test-5{
color:blue
}
html
<span class="test-1">One</span>
<span class="test-2">Two</span>
<span class="test-3">Three</span>
<span class="test-4">Four</span>
<span class="test-5">Five</span>
span five will be in blue color... so you can override the class you want to test and play with it.
Also you can use selectors like
HTML
<div>
<span>I'm pink</span>
<span>I'm pink</span>
<span>I'm pink</span>
<span>I'm pink</span>
<span class="test-1">I'm red</span>
</div>
CSS
div > span{
color:pink;
display:block;
}
div > span.test-1{
color:red;
}
and the last span will be red. I hope this help.
My two cents...
What I am trying to do is be able to have two columns in a div. So I can insert a picture at any point, and place text long side it neatly.
Here is my html:
<div id="content">
<div id="gallery">
<h1>Gallery</h1>
<div id="container">
<div id="imageleft">
<img src="images/pic1.jpg" width="150px" alt="Image" />
</div>
<div id="imageright">
test
</div>
</div>
<img src="images/pic2.jpg" width="150px" alt="Image" />
<img src="images/pic3.jpg" width="150px" alt="Image" />
<img src="images/pic4.jpg" width="150px" alt="Image" />
</div>
</div>
Here is a perfect working JSFiddle
http://jsfiddle.net/RdyGM/1/
And here is an image of what I actually see. The purple bit should be 50% of left. (The text "test" is placed below).
upon inspection you can see that it is obtaining its width from else where :#
How to use just my desired css.
Well, there are two things you could do. The general approach is to try to make your CSS selector more specific. So you could do: #gallery #content #imageleft, instead of just #imageleft, and that should make your rule apply. The other approach is to change your CSS #imageleft to say:
#imageleft{
....
width:50% !important;
....
}
You can use !important to tell the browser which CSS to prioritise - it might, or might not help...
#imageleft {
float:left;
width:50% !important;
background:#c9c;
}
#imageright {
float:right;
width:50% !important;
background:#9c9;
}
domId.Attributes.Add("property of css", "Your css class name");
