Scenario:
One header DIV with three DIV's inside side by side floated left.
Problem:
"Text" from HEADER_A div is overflowing into HEADER_B DIV and so on.
Screenshot / CSS:
alt text http://thumb0.webshots.net/t/74/174/8/92/12/2239892120105349420zNlkOc_th.jpg
#header{
height:127px;
width: 718px;
}
#header_a {
width:181px;
height: 127px;
color:#FFFFFF;
float:left;
}
#header_b{
width: 363px;
float:left;
height: 127px;
/*background-image:url(../images/logo.jpg);*/
background-position:bottom;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-color:#006600;
}
#header_c{
width: 174px;
float:left;
height: 127px;
}
<div id="header">
<div id="header_a">ddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd</div>
<div id="header_b"></div>
<div id="header_c"><img src="images/nuevo.png" /></div>
</div>
ddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd is > 181px.
Its obviously going to overflow because its taken as a single word and words are not broken up. Try using some proper text or give some space like "ddddddddddd ddddddddddddd ddddddddddddddddd dddddddddddddd"
EDIT:
on the other hand the same will happen to images. So anything within the div that is larger than its parent will overflow. you can try using 'overflow:hidden'

I am trying to put some HTML text over an image that has been popped out using lightbox effect. For this i am using 3
box - the popped out div with lightbox effect
address_box - the div inside the box which is nothing but an outline image
address - i want this div to be imposed upon the address_box image
HTML:
<div class="box">
<div id="move_in_img"><img src="img/ready-to-move-in.gif" /></div>
<div id="address_box"><img src="img/address-box.png" />
<div id="address">The address text
</div>
</div>
CSS:
.box
{
position:absolute;
top:20%;
left:12%;
text-align:center;
width:940px;
height:321px;
background:#F9E5B9;
z-index:51;
padding:10px;
-webkit-border-radius: 5px;
-moz-border-radius: 5px;
border-radius: 5px;
display:none;
}
.box #move_in_img{
float:left;
margin-left:20px;
margin-top:50px;
}
#address_box{
position:relative;
}
#address{
position:absolute;
}
the "box" properties are set to give it a lightbox effect and i cant change it from absolute to relative. I have searched a lot and experimented with positioning and z-index but all failed. The text simply appears below the address_box.
What i am trying to do is implement lightbox effect but dont want the text to be displayed as image. M i taking the right approach or there is a better way ??
Here is the paste bin link http://jsbin.com/anehey/1/edit
Just picked a sample image from net for the frame. I want the text to go inside the frame..
Am not getting the thing you are trying to do here as no working demo is provided, generally when you want to do such thing, use position: relative; for the container div and use position: absolute; width: 100%; & bottom: 0; for the imposed text div
HTML
<div class="container">
<img src="#" />
<div class="text"></div>
</div>
CSS
.container {
position: relative;
/*Set Height Width Accordingly*/
}
.text {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
height: /*Whatever*/;
width: 100%;
}
Demo (Not related to my answer but I fixed what he was asking for)
I want to create a <div> element with background color, which starts in the middle of the screen and goes to the right, to the end of the page (out of screen) , but I don´t want to trigger any scroll bar. In that <div> I want to have some information, at the beginning of that <div>(within the screen). Here´s the HTML code example:
<div id="footer">
<h2>Information</h2>
<p>Some text</p>
<p class="alignright">Another information in this paragraph.</p>
</div>
This is how I want it to look like:

CSS will let you do this easily. Something like the following:
#footer {
background-color: #b0c4de;
width: 50%;
height: 20px;
float: right;
}
This is a pretty good resource: http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp
Can´t you just use css background-image of the body to achieve that effect?
You can do this by wrapping the footer div in another div. This will not only allow you to fully position the footer div but it will also allow you to put the footer div outside without generating a scrollbar or showing the overflow.
For example:
<div id="footer-wrapper">
<div id="footer">
<h2>Information</h2>
<p>Some text</p>
<p class="alignright">Another information in this paragraph.</p>
</div>
</div>
#footer-wrapper { width:300px; height:100px; position:relative; overflow:hidden; }
#footer { position:absolute: top:50px; left:50%; width:300px; }
etc.
The position:relative means that the footer div, with position:absolute, will use the wrapper as the position reference. Overflow:hidden will prevent scroll bars and will hide the overflow.
You can do something like that :
#footer {
float: right;
width: 50%;
background-color: blue;
overflow: hidden;
}
The overflow hidden isn't necessary but in case a scrollbar appears, with this it won't.
EDIT: example: http://jsfiddle.net/8nu68/
I have a page that I am trying to create with a div on the left containing an iframe and a div in the middle also containing an iframe.
The sidebar is to hold links and the content section is to load said links.
My goal is to get the sidebar expanded all the way down to the bottom of the page as well as the content section.
Here is my css:
html, body {
height:100%;
margin:0px;
padding:0px;
}
#wrapper {
position: relative;
min-height: 100%;
}
#sidebar {
position: relative;
float:left;
width: 150px;
overflow: hidden;
min-height: 100%;
}
#pdfholder {
float: right;
width: 600px;
}
And here is my html:
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="sidebar">
<iframe id="sidebarframe" name="index" src="./sidebar.html">
</iframe>
</div>
<div id="pdfholder">
<iframe id="pdfholderframe" name="viewer" src="./blank.html">
</iframe>
</div>
<div style="clear: both;"></div>
</div>
</body>
I know I am doing something wrong but I have gone through around 10 different websites and I cannot for the life of me find it!
You can give both containing divs a min-height of 100% and there's not much more you need to do:
http://jsfiddle.net/GolezTrol/eHMec/
You can give the iframes a height of 100% too, but it didn't become clear to me whether you need that or not.
From what I can understand from your question, this JSFiddle (simpler version here) should do the trick.
CSS
div
{
background: black;
}
div div
{
margin-left: 150px;
background: white;
}
div ul
{
float: left;
color: white;
}
HTML
<div>
<ul>
<li>Nav bar</li>
<li>More nav</li>
</ul>
<div>
Content
</div>
</div>
Obviously this is a very simple example and you should give your elements classes or IDs if needbe; I wanted to keep it simple.
The principle of this is a float: left, a margin-left: 150px and some background-color properties. You give your container div a background colour of whatever you want the sidebar to be coloured as, and then set the content divs background back to white, or whatever you want that to be.
The float: left for the navbar ul means the main content is pushed back to the top.
The margin-left: 150px gives the navbar 150px on the left of the content to expand into. Obviously you should change this to the width of the navbar.
I need to do a website with divs. See the code snippet for the format. The MENU is of variable height, depending if the menu-items is rolled out or not, and the content is of variable height as well, but with a minimum of 700px. If the MENU is folded together to its min-height, it is 300px, and the BOX should take up the remaining space so MENU+BOX is the same height as the CONTENT. The content of BOX is 600px, so when BOX only gets 400px, there should be scrollbars. When the CONTENT div expands, the BOX should expand as well, so they stay the same height.
Here's what i got so far, but it is not working properly. I've tried some other stuff, but deleted it for this post so I only get the points shown instead. Hope you can help, and thank you in advance!
#container{ width: 800px; }
#leftbar{ float: left; width: 250px; background-color: lightgray; }
#content { float: left; width: 550px; background-color: white; }
#menu { width: 250px; }
#box { width: 250px; height: 300px; overflow-y: scroll; }
<div id="container">
<div id="leftbar">
<div id="menu">
<div id="box">
</div>
<div id="content"></div>
</div>
<div style="clear:both;"></div>
hi at the first look i can see you have some unclosed div tags, and probably that's why it doesn't do what you want. You can assign scroll bars by using java script, if you set overflow from the css it will have a scroll bar from the beginning
I've found a lot of variations to this question within SO, but it seems no matter what I try I can't get this (seemingly very simple!) thing working!
What I'm trying to do is to keep the 'centered' div in the center of the viewport and to place the 'sidebar' div directly to its right (i.e. not right-aligned to the viewport) without affecting the centering of the 'centered' div.
Here's some test code on jsfiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/6wCyr/13/
Everything I've read seems to imply that the float property is exactly what I'm looking for, but the results in the link show that I get weird results wherein the right sidebar is placed below the 'centered' div rather than beside it. That's what's shown in the link.
I've also seen a solution involving using a negative value for the right property, and setting the width of the sidebar exactly, but I couldn't get that one going either.
Hopefully this question is as easy to solve as I think it should be! Just can't seem to find the right set of div inside div and so forth. Hard to debug these alignment issues!
Thanks!
Live Demo
I moved div.sidebar inside div.centered.
I added position: relative to div.centered.
We're using this technique.
You don't have to declare a fixed width on div.sidebar.
CSS:
div.centered {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
border: dashed;
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
position: relative
}
div.sidebar {
border: dotted;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 100%
}
HTML:
<div class="holder">
<div class="centered">
CENTERED
<div class="sidebar">
RIGHT SIDEBAR
</div>
</div>
</div>
Try this.
http://jsfiddle.net/DOSBeats/6wCyr/16/
.holder {
margin:0 auto;
width:100px;
}
.centered {
border: dashed;
float:left;
height: 100px;
}
.sidebar {
border: dotted;
float:left;
margin-right:-100px;
width:100px;
}
If you do not set a width to your holder and center it, the sidebar will float to the edge of the window.
Try this:
HTML:
<div id="holder">
<div id="sidebar">Sidebar</div>
<div id="centered">Centered</div>
</div>
CSS:
#holder{
margin:auto;
width:500px;
}
#sidebar{
border:dotted;
float:left;
width:100px;
}
#centered{
border:dashed;
margin-left:110px;
width:380px;
}
