I am setting up an asp.net web parts portal for some stuff. I have a [hopefully] really easy question. How can I make the page have 3 major columns?
Right now I have two columns using <div id="leftpanel" style="float: left"> and <div id="rightpanel" style="float: right">. But I cannot figure out how to get a panel in the center. The right panel is basically in the center and there is not a css float: middle/center. So how is a three panel web parts page accomplished?
<div class="container">
<div class="column">
</div>
<div class="column">
</div>
<div class="column">
</div>
</div>
<div class="footer">
</div>
.container{width: 600px;}
.column{float: left; width: 200px;}
.footer{width: 600px; clear: both;}
float the first two left and the last one right.
If that doesn't work, and it sometimes won't, then use Ed B's answer.
A table with 3 columns. Add a div in each column.
Keep the style in the divs..not the table

I am creating a web page and wanted to use a system similar to foundations/ bootstrap with defined columns and rows. I am happy with what I have so far, however I am not sure how I can center a column within a row, while still using a defined grid system.
I know usually the html is formatted like this:
<div class="column column-6 center">
http://codepen.io/Kiwimoose/pen/dpvEqO
Is what I have so far,
I am just not sure how the "center" tag is usually formatted in foundations. I would like to have the column in the second row centered, as well as others in the future.
Your code is OK, you just have to change the order in CSS:
.column {
position: relative;
float: left;
display: block;
}
.center {
margin:auto;
float:none;
}
Style .center class after . column class and it will work.
BTW, it is a good idea to clean up your code a little bit.
Try
<div align="center">
And then you can customize it in the css that you're doing
In Zurb foundation you can use "-offset-" and "end" class names,
for example
<div class="row">
<div class="large-6 large-offset-3 end columns">6 centered</div>
</div>
docs here
to center properly (with no headaches) with Twitter Bootstrap you can simply set empty divs as follows:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-3"></div>
<div class="col-xs-6">
centered div in all resolutions
</div>
<div class="col-xs-3"></div>
</div>
Or you can use offset too
I may sound stupid, but this is all new to me.
I'm guessing I have overlooked something.I have no ideea how to fill the white spaces between my columns(end-to-end)
This is my code:
<div class="container" id="cfoot">
<div class="col-lg-3">
<h3>despre noi</h3>
<p>Pensiunea Delia</p>
<p>Echipa Noastra</p>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-3">
<h3>link-uri utile</h3>
<p>Intrebari frecvente</p>
<p>Serviciile noastre</p>
<p>Contact</p>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-3">
<h3>ultimele postari</h3>
<p>Titlul postare blog vine aici</p>
<p>Titlul postare blog vine aici</p>
<p>Titlul postare blog vine aici</p>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-3">
<img src="imgs/logodelia.png" alt="logobottom">
<p># 2014 Pensiunea Delia. Designed by Kinkara Web</p>
</div>
CSS:
#cfoot.container{
background-color:#f4f4f4;
color:#6c6c6c;
background-image:none;
}
Can anyone help please?
When I use developer tools to look at the markup, I'm seeing this applied by the browser:
body {
display: block;
margin: 8px;
}
If you simply add
body {
margin: 0;
}
.container {
margin: 10px; // adjust as needed
}
I think you'll be on your way.
note: you're also missing the Bootstrap row
<div class="row">
fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/XEF8v/1/
I'm not quite clear on your question. I think you are asking us how you can use bootstrap to achieve the layout of four columns, like in the second image that you have posted.
You can get most of the way there by using Bootstraps built-in grid system.
Overview of Bootstrap's grid system: http://getbootstrap.com/css/#grid
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-1" id="col-1"><!-- empty space on left --></div>
<div class="col-md-2" id="col-2"><!-- despre noi column --></div>
<div class="col-md-2" id="col-3"><!-- link-uri-title column --></div>
<div class="col-md-2" id="col-4"><!-- ultimele column --></div>
<div class="col-md-4" id="col-5"><!-- delea logo column --></div>
<div class="col-md-1" id="col-6"><!-- empty space on right --></div>
</div>
</div>
The col-md-<#> class determines the horizontal width of a column. Per Bootstrap's documentation, these numbers should add up to 12.
i am using zurb foundation for building website, but now i am facing a problem as follows
There are four columns in a row and one of them is not visible sometimes as per some conditions, the code is
<div class="row">
<div class="small-3 columns">1 ... </div>
<div class="small-3 columns" style="display:none;">2 ... </div>
<div class="small-3 columns">3 ... </div>
<div class="small-3 columns">4 ... </div>
</div>
Now the problem is when the div is disabled the empty space between them should be used by other divs, but it is not happening in my case,
I know, i am missing small point, but cant get it
here is the image of problem
I need the 4th div to be shifted to left, as 3rd div is shifted automatically, if 2nd div is display:none
The ZURB-Foundation (looks like you are using version 4) doesn't work like that by default.
What I usually do is create a .left {float: left !important;} class. If you apply that to your 4th div then it will do as you say.
However depending on your reason for doing this AND WHETHER THIS IS ONLY SUPPOSED TO APPLY TO DESKTOP/TABLET/MOBILE or ALL THREE, you might want to use
#media queries in the stylesheet to specify where and when.
Examples:
#media (query goes here) {
.row .columns:last-child {
float: left;
}
}
** OR **
.left {
float: left !important;
}
THEN
<div class="row">
<div class="small-3 columns">1 ... </div>
<div class="small-3 columns" style="display:none;">2 ... </div>
<div class="small-3 columns">3 ... </div>
<div class="small-3 columns left">4 ... </div>
</div>
Try this fiddle
HTML
<div class="row">
<div class="small-3 columns">1 ... </div>
<div class="small-3 columns" style="display:none;">2 ... </div>
<div class="small-3 columns">3 ... </div>
<div class="small-3 columns">4 ... </div>
</div>
CSS
div.columns
{
padding:10px;
background:#00bfff;
width:20%;
display:block;
float:left;
}
#jnelson thanks for the help, now i realized the power of !important, so i have created simple solution
.abc{
float:left !important;
}
This also worked correctly on all type of devices
You should not be changing the fundamental structure of how the columns are sized or work.
Instead you should just uses different classes. If you know that one column will be disabled, and I am assuming you are using javascript to do this. Then also use javascript to add the proper column width. If you have 3 columns instead of 4(due to one being display none) give the three columns a small-4. This line of thinking will also allow you to handle two columns (small-6).
If you absolutely have to use 3 columns I agree with the above posts that you need to change.
[class*="column"]+[class*="column"]:last-child {
float: right;
to
[class*="column"]+[class*="column"]:last-child {
float: left;
I've read a bunch of SO questions/answers on side-by-side (row) divs, but I don't think I'm grasping it as I can't find a solution for my specific setup:
http://www.trforums.com/h18-iwaku
Basically, I want the div on the very bottom to be to the right to the "Hey, What's up", "Navigation," and "Connect" boxes, instead of just under them. Is this possible to do?
The divs themselves are just classes with their corresponding html content. It's very basic but here's my code:
http://pastebin.com/AQrqqewA
My html is very rusty so other suggestions are more than welcome. Thanks for any help.
Try surrounding each column in a DIV:
<!-- Left column -->
<div id="leftColumn">
<div class="ex">
<center><img style="display: inline;" src="http://i.imgur.com/wCP3WP3" alt="" /></center>
<h1>Hey, what's up?</h1>
</div>
<div class="navbar">
<b>NAVIGATION:</b> Zukan | Movies | Retsuden | Photography |
</div>
<div class="connect">
<b>CONNECT:</b> Livejournal
</div>
</div>
<!-- Right column -->
<div id="rightColumn">
<div class="slideshow">
Bottom div that I want in a row with the top one...
</div>
</div>
CSS:
#leftColumn {
float: left;
width: 410px; // Width of this column
}
#rightColumn {
float: left;
width: 500px; // Width od this column
}
Move the div with a class slideshow next to the div with a class ex and apply floats, as you can see in JS Bin
The final result can be seen here
Use float:left or display:inline on the divs that you want next to each other.
I have a container div, inside which I want to pack a variable number of divs of unknown (variable) height but with a given min-width. My requirements are:
If the container is wide enough to accommodate two columns, I want them to distribute themselves nicely in two columns without unnecessary whitespace.
It not, they should just go above each other.
Currently, I've given the divs width:48% margin-right:2%;float:left; which works nicely in the one-column state but when I resize the browser window, making room for two columns, every div which ends up in the left column insists on aligning itself horizontally with the bottom of the last div which went to the right:
what I have http://img602.imageshack.us/img602/5719/whatihave.png
This is how I would like them to go (no wasted space):
what I want http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/6985/whatiwantu.png
I would like a pure CSS solution if possible.
Thank you! /Gustav
EDIT:
This markup illustrates my problem:
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
.box {
width: 48%;
min-width:550px;
margin-right:2%;
margin-bottom: 1.5em;
background:blue;
color:white;
height:180px;
float:left;
}
.tall {
height: 250px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="box">1</div>
<div class="box">2</div>
<div class="box">3</div>
<div class="box tall">4</div>
<div class="box">5</div>
<div class="box">6</div>
<div style="clear:both"/>
</body>
</html>
The .boxes are generated dynamically, and so are their heights, I just threw in one taller to illustrate.
I don't think you can achieve the desired effect with pure CSS. I've used jQuery Masonry to replicate the effect you're after and it worked really well.
I'd love to see a pure CSS solution for this but haven't seen anything come close yet.
I believe that if you have a div for each column into which you put the numbered divs you will get what you want. Something like this:
<div class="containerDiv">
<div class="column">
<div class="content">
1
</div>
<div class="content">
4
</div>
</div>
<div class="column">
<div class="content">
2
</div>
<div class="content">
3
</div>
</div>
</div>
The next step appears to be "how do I balance my columns". Some code somewhere is generating the boxes you mentioned. It is deciding on the height of each box. This code will need to generate a balanced list of boxes for each column prior to forwarding the request to the JSP for presentation. By balanced, I mean "the height of column1 is similar to the height to column2"
