I wish to make my background full width, with a image or colour background filling the row. However, I would like the content to sit in the middle spanning the standard 12 cols dictated by neat.
Currently my structure is:
<div class="container">
<section id="section">
<div class="left-col">
<p>some text</p>
</div>
<div class="right-col">
<p>some text</p>
</div>
</section>
</div>
With the relevant sass being:
.container
+outer-container(100%)
background-color: #fff
padding: 40px 0
#lead-text
+span-columns(12)
.left-col
+span-columns(4)
.right-col
+span-columns(8)
This results in the container spanning the full width of the browser. But so does the inner section? I would like this to sit in the centre across the standard 12 cols?
Thanks in advance
Keeping your current HTML I would do the following in SCSS:
.container {
background-color: pink;
}
#section {
#include outer-container;
background-color: #fff;
}
div.left-col {
#include span-columns(4);
}
div.right-col {
#include span-columns(8);
}
This makes the section the element neat treats as the outer-container, leaving the .container element to do it's natural thing of spanning the full browser window width, allowing you to add a background.
If I get your question right you want to do a "break-out-of-parent"
HTML
<div class="container">
<div class="break-out">Content</div>
</div>
CSS
// use border-box to prevent padding from
// being added to width (alway do this)
html { box-sizing: border-box; }
*,*:before,*:after { box-sizing: inherit; }
// the container is aligned center with
// a maximum width of xxx (doesn't matter)
.container {
margin: 0 auto;
max-width: 960px;
}
// breaking out of the container
.break-out {
// set the width to full screen width
width: 100vw;
// use calc to pull content back to the center
margin-left: calc(50% - 50vw);
// to make the content re-align with the container
// use the reversed calc to set padding
padding-left: calc(50vw - 50%);
}

I am using susy grids 1.0.9 and noticed something which has me confused.
I have two elements, ".page_1" and ".page_2", with identical settings -- spanning 10 columns each, padded on both sides.
I noticed an unexpected behavior: if I use $container-style: static, the container size starts changing depending on the font-size applied to said container.
If I change font-size to 1em both containers are again the same size.
If I change '$container-style' to 'magic' both containers are the same size, too. This behavior takes place only with a font-size specified on the element when the $container-style' is set tostatic.`
What am I doing wrong?/Is there a workaround for this? Code below.
$total-columns: 12;
$column-width: 4em;
$gutter-width: 1em;
$grid-padding: $gutter-width;
$container-style: static;
#section_1 {
background-color: #963;
border: 4px solid green;
.pages_wrapper {
#include container;
}
.page {
border:1px solid yellow;
#include prefix(1);
#include span-columns(10,12);
#include suffix(1);
text-align: center;
color: #fff;
}
.page_1 {
font-size: 1em;
}
.page_2 {
font-size: 1.25em;
}
}
HTML:
<section id="section_1">
<section class="pages_wrapper">
<section class="page_1 page">
<h1>Page 1</h1>
</section>
<section class="page_2 page">
<h1>Page 2</h1>
</section>
</section>
</section>
Screenshot showing the issue (Latest Chrome):
$container-style:static; , .page_2 {font-size: 1em} :
The width of .page is calculated in em, because you set your column/gutter widths as ems (which are font-size based). Since you're giving .page_2 a larger font-size than .page_1 the width of the container will grow as well.
If you want to use the static layout you can change your column/gutter settings, or set a fixed container-width:
$container-width: 960px;
This will apply a fixed width of 960px on .pages_wrapper and the width of .page will get calculated in percent.
Alternatively, you could alter your HTML and apply font-size on an additional container inside the container that uses the span-column mixin:
<section id="section_1">
<section class="pages_wrapper">
<section class="page">
<div class="page_1">
<h1>Page 1</h1>
</div>
</section>
<section class="page">
<div class="page_2">
<h1>Page 2</h1>
</div>
</section>
</section>
</section>

My main concern in this fiddle is the div#text and img.frame. I'm trying to create a responsive website, but this has been my problem for so long, I can't figure out how 'to make the img behave beside the text and be responsive at the same time when I try to reduce the size of the browser window. What it does is, it goes under the text before it acts responsively. Is there a workaround for this?
<div id="text">This is some text this is some text this is some text</div>
<img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/5f/TomandJerryTitleCardc.jpg/250px-TomandJerryTitleCardc.jpg" width="294" height="225" class="frame" />
For your goal you should use em or % and use inline-block.
jsfiddle.net/geNuR/ Look at this jsfiddle
Don't know why i can't put code propely, maybe forum blocked our country))
The key to responsive images with flowed text does rely on float. However, the key is in floating the img element, not the text.
First, place the img tag before the text, giving a markup as so:
<img src="image.jpg" width="294" height="225" class="frame" />
<div id="text">This is some text this is some text this is some text</div>
The importance of this order is that the img will be floated to the right, removing its cleared blocked region height, and the text will flow up and around it.
Next, remove the float from the text, allowing it to flow, and apply a float right to the image. I will also note, that to give a margin between the text and the img, the margin is applied to the img, giving you this styling:
img { max-width: 100%; height: auto; }
#text{ width:100px;}
.frame {
float:right;
background: #fff;
padding: 6px;
margin-left:10px;
box-shadow: 1px 1px 2px rgba(40, 40, 40, 0.8);
-moz-box-shadow: 1px 1px 2px rgba(40, 40, 40, 0.8);
-webkit-box-shadow: 1px 1px 2px rgba(40, 40, 40, 0.8);
}
Here is a jfiddle demonstration
I'm assuming that you're looking to have text and an image side-by-side here, so apologies if I'm wrong.
Like M. Berro, I would first put the two elements inside a containing div, as below:
<div id="container">
<p class="text">Here's some text. This will be aligned to the left, and next to the image. It's width will change as the viewport expands or contracts.</p>
<img src="/image.png" title="An image, aligned right" />
</div>
To sit the image and text side-by side, I would use the following CSS as a starting point:
#container {}
#container p.text { float: left; min-width: 320px; }
#container img { float: right; margin-left: 20px; }
In my example, I've applied a float to each of the two elements (You will of course have to clear the floats to make sure the rest of the page's structure remains intact - I suggest looking at Clearfix, as it avoids any extra empty divs). I've also given the text a min-width: this ensures that the text doesn't contract to a point where it is unreadable!
As I understand you need an image beside a text, so when you reduce the window size the image and text behavior isn't affected.
You need the following:
Make a container div id=img_container give style width (let's say 400px)
Put your image inside the container and give a style #img_container img{float: left}
Put your text inside a p tag and give style #img_container (p or div) and give style (margin-left: same of your img width) + 10
This is the full example:
<style>
#img_container {
width: 400px;
}
#img_container.text {
margin-left: 306px;
}
#img_container img.frame {
float: left;
}
</style>
<div id="img_container">
<img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/5f/TomandJerryTitleCardc.jpg/250px-TomandJerryTitleCardc.jpg" width="294" height="225" class="frame" />
<div id="text">This is some text this is some text this is some text</div>
</div>
You could start by adding the css max-width: 60%; in .frame. It's not perfect but is this similar to what you are trying to achieve? Better results can be realized with javascript/jQuery.
I have a html document structured with a header, content, and footer divs. I am trying to center an image (a logo) inside my header div to display at the top of my webpage in the middle. I can absolute position it into the middle, but when I change the browser size, the img doesn't move along with it. I want it to be place automatically in the center of the window. I am stumped..?
I have tried , margin-right:auto; margin-left:auto. I have also tried the trick where you make margin-left negative half the width and top 50%, but nothing has worked so far.
html:
<body>
<div id="container">
<div id="header">
<img id="logo-img" src="http://f.cl.ly/items/3c0h1b0F3t1D1S1T2J0F/smallersticker.png">
</div>
/*...(body div)
...(footer div)*/
</div> /*container*/
css:
#header {
background-color:transparent;
height:260px;
width:100%
}
#logo-img{
display: block;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
Also, Do I even need a container? Not sure if I need javascript for this, or if it can be accomplished with just html/css? Hope someone can help, thanks!
What is happening is that you are already correctly centering your image.
Your problem is that the image is huge. If you notice closely, the image is not centered if your browser window becomes smaller in width than the image.
Remove the white area from the image and it will center correctly.
Edit: in IE, you need to add the rule text-align:center to #header
Another way:
If you don't want to change your image, you can use this hack:
<style>
#header {
overflow-y: hidden;
background-color: transparent;
height: 260px;
width: 100%;
margin-left: 50%;
}
#logo-img{
display: block;
position: relative;
right: 50%;
}
</style>
<body>
<div id="container">
<div id="header">
<img id="logo-img" src="http://f.cl.ly/items/3c0h1b0F3t1D1S1T2J0F/smallersticker.png">
</div>
/*...(body div)
...(footer div)*/
</div> /*container*/
I learned this hack a while ago here
Just use the logo at a size it's supposed to be (like this here), then all you need to do is add the align="center" attribute to your logo's div.
For some odd reason I added a responsive image to my responsive layout and it seems to add some sort of spacing below the image.
You may view the issue here: http://www.client.noxinnovations.com/jensenblair/
The top image. Here is my HTML and CSS.
HTML
<div class="header"> <img src="images/photograph.jpg" /> </div>
CSS
img {
max-width: 100%;
height: auto !important;
}
.header {
height: auto;
padding: 0;
margin: 0 auto;
border: none;
}
It seems to be consistent in each browser. Any ideas anyone?
There are two ways (that I know of) to solve this: http://jsfiddle.net/3kC4K/1/
<div>
<img src="http://placehold.it/100x100/"/>
</div>
<div>
<img src="http://placehold.it/100x100/" class="block"/>
</div>
<div>
<img src="http://placehold.it/100x100/" class="inline"/>
</div>
CSS
div{
border:solid 1px #f00;
margin:5px;
float:left;
}
.block{
display:block;
}
.inline{
vertical-align:bottom;
}
img tags, by default, are inline elements. Because of this, browsers will create a sort of "gutter" underneath them so that any text that wraps below it won't be flush with the bottom of the image.
In your case, simply applying display:block to the image should do the trick.
I have three div elements: one as a header, one as a footer, and a center content div. the div in the center needs to expand automatically with content, but I would like a min-height such that the bottom div always at least reaches the bottom of the window, but is not fixed there on longer pages.
For example:
<div id="a" style="height: 200px;">
<p>This div should always remain at the top of the page content and should scroll with it.</p>
</div>
<div id="b">
<p>This is the div in question. On longer pages, this div needs to behave normally (i.e. expand to fit the content and scroll with the entire page). On shorter pages, this div needs to expand beyond its content to a height such that div c will reach the bottom of the viewport, regardless of monitor resolution or window size.
</div>
<div id="c" style="height: 100px;">
<p>This div needs to remain at the bottom of the page's content, and scroll with it on longer pages, but on shorter pages, needs to reach the bottom of the browser window, regardless of monitor resolution or window size.</p>
</div>
Just look for my solution on jsfiddle, it is based on csslayout
html,
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
height: 100%; /* needed for container min-height */
}
div#container {
position: relative; /* needed for footer positioning*/
height: auto !important; /* real browsers */
min-height: 100%; /* real browsers */
}
div#header {
padding: 1em;
background: #efe;
}
div#content {
/* padding:1em 1em 5em; *//* bottom padding for footer */
}
div#footer {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
bottom: 0; /* stick to bottom */
background: #ddd;
}
<div id="container">
<div id="header">header</div>
<div id="content">
content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>content<br/>
</div>
<div id="footer">
footer
</div>
</div>
I found this courtesy of ryanfait.com. It's actually remarkably simple.
In order to float a footer to the bottom of the page when content is shorter than window-height, or at the bottom of the content when it is longer than window-height, utilize the following code:
Basic HTML structure:
<div id="content">
Place your content here.
<div id="push"></div>
</div>
<div id="footer">
Place your footer information here.
</footer>
Note: Nothing should be placed outside the '#content' and '#footer' divs unless it is absolutely positioned.
Note: Nothing should be placed inside the '#push' div as it will be hidden.
And the CSS:
* {
margin: 0;
}
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
#content {
min-height: 100%;
height: auto !important; /*min-height hack*/
height: 100%; /*min-height hack*/
margin-bottom: -4em; /*Negates #push on longer pages*/
}
#footer, #push {
height: 4em;
}
To make headers or footers span the width of a page, you must absolutely position the header.
Note: If you add a page-width header, I found it necessary to add an extra wrapper div to #content. The outer div controls horizontal spacing while the inner div controls vertical spacing. I was required to do this because I found that 'min-height:' works only on the body of an element and adds padding to the height.
*Edit: missing semicolon
If #top and #bottom have fixed heights, you can use:
#top {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
height: 200px;
}
#bottom {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
height: 100px;
}
#central {
margin-top: 200px;
margin-bot: 100px;
}
update
If you want #central to stretch down, you could:
Fake it with a background on parent;
Use CSS3's (not widely supported, most likely) calc();
Or maybe use javascript to dynamically add min-height.
With calc():
#central {
min-height: calc(100% - 300px);
}
With jQuery it could be something like:
$(document).ready(function() {
var desiredHeight = $("body").height() - $("top").height() - $("bot").height();
$("#central").css("min-height", desiredHeight );
});
to get dynamic height based on browser window. Use vh instead of %
e.g: pass following height: 100vh; to the specific div
As mentioned elsewhere, the CSS function calc() can work nicely here. It is now mostly supported. You could use like:
.container
{
min-height: 70%;
min-height: -webkit-calc(100% - 300px);
min-height: -moz-calc(100% - 300px);
min-height: calc(100% - 300px);
}
No hack or js needed. Just apply the following rule to your root element:
min-height: 100%;
height: auto;
It will automatically choose the bigger one from the two as its height, which means if the content is longer than the browser, it will be the height of the content, otherwise, the height of the browser. This is standard css.
You propably have to write some JavaScript, because there is no way to estimate the height of all the users of the page.
It's hard to do this.
There is a min-height: css style, but it doesn't work in all browsers. You can use it, but the biggest problem is that you will need to set it to something like 90% or numbers like that (percents), but the top and bottom divs use fixed pixel sizes, and you won't be able to reconcile them.
var minHeight = $(window).height() -
$('#a').outerHeight(true) -
$('#c').outerHeight(true));
if($('#b').height() < minHeight) $('#b').height(minHeight);
I know a and c have fixed heights, but I rather measure them in case they change later.
Also, I am measuring the height of b (I don't want to make is smaller after all), but if there is an image in there that did not load the height can change, so watch out for things like that.
It may be safer to do:
$('#b').prepend('<div style="float: left; width: 1px; height: ' + minHeight + 'px;"> </div>');
Which simply adds an element into that div with the correct height - that effectively acts as min-height even for browsers that don't have it. (You may want to add the element into your markup, and then just control the height of it via javascript instead of also adding it that way, that way you can take it into account when designing the layout.)
