i have an dynamic image gallery to display, using PHP...
My PROB
the style & positioning should be that if there is not enough space for a whole div, like in the image above, then the DIVs in the row should position them like the following
centered and equi distant...
here is JS-Fiddle basic template set, if somebody wants to try something on jsFiddle
If you wanted to achieve this with just CSS, the code would be as so:
#div {
clear:both;
width:500px
}
.img {
display:block;
width:150px;
height: 50px;
float:left;
}
As far as I remember, that's it..
Good luck!
Never "clear" the float (at least until the end of the grid).
Enclose each img in its own DIV with the float:left style,
Important: Give each of those DIVs the same HEIGHT (slightly larger than the largest photo), otherwise if the images are different heights you will get some weird floating.
Optional: If your images are different widths, and you want a nice 'grid pattern', then you can give all the DIVs a width property.
Beware of the effects of margins on overall height/width.
Also note that if you use the standard meta viewport tag on your pages to format them for narrow mobile screens, this will shove all your images into columns to fit that screen without shrinking them unbearably (provided something else doesn't make the page wide).
#div {
width: 220px;
height: 215px;
float: left;
}
you can achieve all of that simply with css width property for div
#div {
width:500px;
}
We implemented almost the same here

here also , you can switch between grid view and normal view , all we are playing around is with divs width

Google had the same problem with their image search... they had to overcome it with fancy scripting. Looking at the source, each row of images is a <ul> inside a <span>, and each image is in an <li>. Then when you resize the window, the images get moved from one <ul> to another. That's the best method they could come up with, apparently.
So, using jQuery:
blocksPerRow = Math.floor($('#container').width() / blockWidth);
$('.row ul').each(function () {
while ($(this).children('li').size() > blocksPerRow)
($(this).children('li:last-child').prependTo($(this).nearest('.row').next()));
while ($(this).children('li').size() < blocksPerRow)
($(this).nearest('.row').next().find('li:first-child').prependTo($(this).nearest('.row')));
});
I think that should do it. Add that to $(window).resize() as well as the document ready event.

I'm trying to make all product images the same height. I feel like I should just be able to add the following to ".product-image":
height: 300px;
width: auto;
position: absolute;
but that doesn't work here.
Here is a link to the page with the issue:
http://www.hothothot.com/shop/product-category/enter-at-your-own-risk-10/
How can I make these images the same size? again, I think that they should be governed by .product-images, but the only thing that seems to work is when I change the more generic "img" for media=All which then messes up other images on the site.
Please help. Thanks!
Remove height:auto; in your code and if you want a specific height on it then use height:50px; or whatever you would like.
img{
border-style:none;
vertical-align:top;
max-width:100%;
height:auto; // <--- Remove that
}
Online tools like picresize are great help in your case http://www.picresize.com/. You can resize the images so even with height:auto; it would work perfectly.
You can reference them via
.product-images img {
// css here
}
There appears to be no class called product-image, so this references any image within the a tag with the class product-images.
However, increasing the height when all the images are different sizes and the outer tag has a max-width may well lead to some images being stretched and looking odd.
Stretching small images can also make them quite blocky.
If the idea is for a tidy alignment, you are probably better setting a height on the .product-images tag and making the images vertically align within it.
(Also, the simplest way to make them the same size may well be to edit the images and upload them the same size)
The product-image class is on the link that surrounds the image.
The image itself has two classes: attachment-shop_catalog and wp-post-image.
So, you could try something like this:
.attachment-shop_catalog .wp-post-image {
height:300px;
}
The other issue is that the img has width and height specified in the html.
To make sure the image scales properly you should set the width to auto.
Try something like this:
.attachment-shop_catalog .wp-post-image {
height:300px !important;
width:auto !important;
}
I added !important so that it will override the hard coded html dimensions.
Hope this helps
In this responsive design I am trying for, I have three divs floating side-by-side, which get narrower and narrower when you zoom in on them. I would like them to keep their size and stack instead. How do I do this? I am beginning jquery, but for this would prefer to stick to css if possible.
Here is the relevant styling I have for the divs and their parent container div:
#container {
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
width:110%}
.floating-div {
width:27%;
min-width:27%;
height:420px;
float:left;}
Thanks for reading~
You would be better served using CSS and breakpoints on view ports to manage the display for your HTML:
CSS Tricks shows how to set up CSS for this purpose: http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/media-queries-for-standard-devices/
From the code above, there needs to also be a max-width declaration so that as the element is zoomed, it will push the next div down on the page.
solved it. I changed width % to px for the floating div.
A page I'm working on has a div that spans its width. Its height has to resize according to the browser window. Here's how I've got it so far:
#vid_window{
position:absolute;
float:left;
background-color:#000;
width:100%;
height:57%;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
overflow:hidden;
}
At the bottom of the page is a 'menu' to play an assortment of videos in the above div, and the video, of course, will have to resize with the height of the div. The div is absolutely positioned, per the client. That's not a problem:
#vid{width:100%;height:100%:}
As it will fill #vid_window
Here's the problem: When the browser page resizes, it doesn't take long for the 'menu' to begin overlapping the vid window. I know I can reduce the percentage, but, I may not, per the client. They want the lion's share of the page to be able to display the video, but they, of course, don't want the menu to overlap the window or the vid.
Here's the question: Is there a way to have the vid_window and vid resize exponentially according to the browser window, such that if the window is fully expanded, the vid_window is at 57%, but if it's half-size, the vid_window would be, say, 30%?
Here's a link to the page, if you'd like:
page
From what you've described, it sounds like you'd be better off absolutely positioning the menu at the bottom, and using relative postioning on vid_window. With a little JavaScript you can resize it correctly, and it should resolve your overlap issue. If you're allowed to use it, you can make quick work of it with jQuery.
Like James says the best way I can think of for you to do this is set a class on the Div vid_window set the height % in the class and check the display window size to determine your optimal settings. Also I would probably set a min-height so that the page won't go below that height and for backwards compatibility look at Modernizr. http://www.modernizr.com/
------EDIT------
That the Header and footer will never be off of the page. One way to reduce the problems you are having is setting the height on the header and footer to percentages so that they will scale with the height of the body
html,body { height:99%; min-height: 100%; }
header { height:22%; min-height: 100px; }
#content { height: 56%; min-height: 200px; }
footer { height:21%; min-height: 100px; }
The min-height values can be whatever you think is appropriate for the smallest height you want to go. The percentage heights on the rest should auto scale you header footer and consequently your content. This will however force the footer to go off the page at a certain point (when all min widths are met and the browser window continues to shrink). I do think that this would be desirable and should meet your clients needs. If not then you are going to get into a very complicated javascript that is not always going to do the math just right because of how each browser handles padding and height calculations. On top of that if they disable javascript then it would never work.
I'm still relatively new to css positioning, but have read a few books and watched a few tutorials. I made some palettes over at colourLovers, and wanted to see how they would look when applied to a website as a color scheme. So, using the little coding knowledge I had, I created a page to demonstrate my color scheme. After a while, it became a sort of self-confidence boost, and I've gotten just about done with it when a little thing caught my attention.
I have a two-column layout - on the left, there is the navigation menu, with a header above and a content section to the right, all in their own divs. My question is this - when I scale the page (as in, make the window for viewing it smaller), the content section gets pushed so it wraps under the Div. The way I could fix this was to make an additional div with no bg color and make it as long as the content that contained the navigation div, so they would line up, but it doesn't fix it if you resize the window.
I'm sure there's an easy fix to this, but my limited knowledge doesn't yet know it. If it helps, I've attached an image file below of what the site looks like in my editor (Coda). I also provide a link to the code of that page of my site which I've uploaded to textsnip. You can find it here - http://textsnip.com/f434fd. I have added comments to mark the header, sidebar, and content sections as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
The easiest solution is to use min-wdith on your container:
<div style="width: 90%; padding: 10px; margin:0 auto; min-width: 400px;">
This won't work on IE6, but will work on everything else. And, if you need IE6, then there are several workarounds that will solve it.
I would suggest you to use % value instead of px.
For example:
Header: 100%;
Nav: 20%;
Content: 80%;
Footer: 100%;
This way, if someone rize the window, it will always display perfect.
Use "float: right" on content DIV. And replace px width with %.

You can use CSS Media Queries to adjust things as they get bigger and smaller. For instance, if you wrap your entire page with a div with an ID of wrapper (and use Simon Arnold's solution for the width of the individual elements), then you can do this:
#media (min-width:1200px) {
#wrapper {
width:1100px;
}
}
#media (max-width:1200px) {
#wrapper {
width:90%;
}
}
These set your wrapper to 90% if the screen size is less than 1200px, and 1100px if your screen is bigger than 1200px. Thus, if the browser is wider than 1200px then your page will stay the same size, and if it's smaller then it'll flow nicely.
#media (max-width:700px) {
#wrapper {
width:100%;
}
}
That one makes it wider when the browser gets smaller, and
#media (max-width:400px) {
#wrapper {
width:400px;
}
}
that one sets it to a fixed width when the browser gets really small. Those are really simple queries, if you're interested in learning more about media queries then here's a good place: http://css-tricks.com/6731-css-media-queries/
And of course, it wouldn't hurt to make the page flow between those transitions using CSS3 Transitions.
IE8 and below, unfortunately, do not support media queries. BUT you could read their browser type with PHP instead, and direct them to get a decent browser... It'd help make the web better. ;)
In my page there's only one image. Kind of 1500x3000 px.
In the printer, I need that this image's maximum width to be the width of the page, so I did: width 100% in the css, and it works.
But the height... the old bullshit of height 100% will never work. Because it always will be 100% of the parent container, then someone must have height defined. Or html or body.
So, my question is: make this image fit in one page.
Any ideas?
One way to do it would be to perform some calculations to find out what width would cause the length to be exactly one page, and then set your width in the CSS accordingly.
If I understand this right, could you do
.OnePageImage { height: 100%; width: 600px; }
Where 600px (the width) is the total width of the page. Then the image would fit on one page (albeit with some distortion potentially). You could also add a css page break style to a div before and after the image, which is done like this:
.break { page-break-after:always; }
Then the code would look like this:
<div class="break"></div>
<img src="[your image src]" class="OnePageImage" />
<div class="break"></div>
The only thing that limited the print output to a single page for me was setting the height in cm of a container element that wrapped the entire page, and also setting it's overflow to hidden. For some reason this didn't seem to work on the body element.
body > section {
padding:0 !important;
margin:0 !important;
height:25.7cm !important;
overflow:hidden !important;
}
Incidentally, I had hoped that setting page-break-inside to avoid on the body or the container element might have been the solution to limiting to a single print page but that doesn't seem to have any effect at all.
Ok sorry for putting the "solution" as a comment:
What I've ended up doing was assume that 99% of the clients (that's true) they use a single page size. So I put some warning in the print interface that will only work with the page size "X". too bad. but it's working out so far
