New to using Zurb Foundation and starting with version 4, I can't find a way to have the grid aligned to the center on small screens only, and then revert to the default grid on large screens. Are there any native classes supplied with Foundation 4 that can do this?
I've had a look at their documentation on http://foundation.zurb.com/docs/components/grid.html which demonstrates the classes "small-centered" and "large-centered" which do work as intended but there is a line saying
Small versions will carry through all breakpoints if not overridden by a large version.
To me this sounds like I either need to create a class that overrides the center align from "small-center" class on large displays, or that there is a class existing - this I cannot find.
Here is some sample code I am testing with:
<div class="row">
<div class="large-2 columns">
<span>text</span>
</div>
<div class="large-6 columns">
<span>text</span>
</div>
<div class="large-4 columns">
<span>text</span>
</div>
</div>
The grid system functions as expected and intended but I want all three columns to center align on small screens only.
If I do need to create my own classes and styles, is anyone aware of SCSS that may be available to the community already addressing this issue?
It turns out that this is not supported out-of-the box. There is a simple fix though and that is by adding the override as I've suggested in my comment.
#media only screen and (min-width: 48em) {
.column.large-left,
.columns.large-left {
float: left !important;
}
}
Notice the use of em that is the Foundation-standard way of doing things. That should take care of the smal-centered issue. You then just have to add that class to any small-centered elements that you don't want centered. You can see it in action here.
You can't do that with Foundation non-semantic classes.
You'll have to do it manually and (hopefully) semantically:
#media only screen and (max-width: 767px) {
.some-container { text-align: center; }
}
You need to checkout CSS files and search for mediaqueries that are for small screen only and then add properties for that specific column.

According to the fullpages.js documentation, it should be possible to vertically center the contents of .sections with the parameter verticallyCentered (which defaults to true).
However, I can't get this feature to work with the following HTML structure:
<div id="content">
<div class="section container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12">
<h1 class="title">Title</h1>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The content of the .col-xs-12 div (i.e. the heading) remains at the top of the window.
I am using Bootstrap for scaffolding (if that is of any relevance). Also, the basic functionality of fullpage.js (i.e. the single-page scrolling) is working without any problems.
You are probably using some absolute positioned element and that's the reason why fullpage.js can not deal with it.
You can easily see in the examples that fullpage.js centers the content correctly when using verticalCentered:true, which is the default value.
I had the same issue.
I fixed it by styling the default class, added by fullpage.js:
.fp-tableCell {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
}
Since I couldn't get the vertical centering functionality to work, I ended up disabling it by setting verticalCentered to false. As a replacement I am now using jQuery-Flex-Vertical-Center which works out of the box.
Sorry to resurrect this question but the problem is that you didn't include the css file of FullPage.js
The assumption behind this question is that the designer is using proportional queries in a Responsive Web Design and going from 1-column on a smartphone to 2 and 3-column on the displays where they will comfortably fit.
A content widget jQuery plugin (like a Recent Updates widget) should change it's character in the different layouts. In 1-column layout it might need to be 4 small text links and in 2 or 3-column layouts it can include thumbnails and extra text.
For reference, here's the code as the end-user of the content widget would see it.
HTML:
<section id="sidebar">
<section id="latestupdates"></section>
</section>
JS:
(function($){
$(function(){
$("#latestupdates").widgetco_latestupdates();
});
})(jQuery);
I think the best way to hook into the designers layout changes is this. Ask for the breakpoints as parameters for widgetco_latestupdates during initialization and use the resize events to toggle css classes.
Is this even the right method? What are the pitfalls with doing this?
UPDATE:
Since asking, I have found enquire.js which will handle running the queries. That still leaves the question of this being the right method.
If you are careful with the classes you assign to the content, you can likely control everythinhg with standard CSS.
For example, say your desktop output was something like
<article>
<h1> Update heading </h1>
<img src="..">
<p class="intro"> Intro text ... </p>
<p class="full-text"> Full text here </p>
read more
</article>
Then in your CSS you manage what content to show on which devices with
#media screen and (max-width: 480px){
/* for smartphones */
article img, p.intro{
display:none;
}
}
#media screen and (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 800px){
/* for tablets */
p.full-text{
display:none;
}
}
I think if you can use CSS to manage the different layouts it will be more flexible and easier to update going forward.
Good luck!

I am customizing my website using Twitter Bootstrap. I am trying to insert an image positioned as the top layer, is located slightly "outside of the container", and can responsively resize while staying proportionate / in relation to the other elements. I would like to use position: relative, but the image seems forced into a box within the container. When I use position: absolute, the image displays correctly at first on my web browser, but it does not behave as intended when the screen is resized.
Can anyone help me figure out a good solution to this issue?
HTML: I do not have the image contained within it's own , but is still located within the overall . Here's the code:
<img src="images/hero-babee.png" alt="Babee blowing bubbles." id="babee-bubbles">
CSS: Here's my custom css.
img#babee-bubbles {
z-index: 100;
position: relative;
top: 51%;
left: 7.5%;
}
I'd appreciate any help finding a solution and/or help with my code / syntax. Thanks in advance.
To design responsive website using bootstrap you can use bootstrap layout.
Fluid layout has class "row-fluid" and you can specify width in using class as span.
this structure will be responsive. to test it just resize your browser window.
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span2">
<img>....</img>
......
</div>
<div class="span2">
</div>
......
</div>
Bootstrap devide screen size in 12 part. we can use that part by giving
class="span*"
* is no of part.
Im trying to create a horizontally scrolling gallery but I would like to avoid defining the width on the div. Someone else is touching the html - I want her to be able to drop in as many li as possible without having to touch the css and redefining the width.
The mock site is here: rachelbeen.com/Carmen.
Safari recognizes where the content ends and stops the horizontal scroll - but firefox maintains that extra space as defined by the width:6600px; on the #gallery ul. How do I stop that from happening?
Would like to avoid plugins if possible and use only CSS.
Thanks,
-Rachel
I had the same problem and I tried this:
#full{margin:0 auto; overflow:auto; height:100%; width:1050px;}
// width is just for controlling the viewport.
#holder{float:left; margin-right:-30000px;}
.box{float:left; margin:2px;}
and HTML should be like:
<div id="full">
<div id="holder">
<div id="box1" class="box"></div>
<div id="box2" class="box"></div>
</div>
</div>
add many DIVs as you want and it'll make more space for you boxes without giving it a specific width. I hope it helps you.
What is currently considered the best way to clear CSS floated elements that will:
Keep the HTML markup as semantic and free of unnecessary elements as possible, and
Be a cross-browser, cross-platform solution that works reliably for the majority of browsers?
This isn't a graphic design question. It's a CSS one, so belongs on StackOverflow.
That said, the answer for keeping the HTML clean is simply to give the parent an overflow. So if your markup is:
<div class="wrapper">
<div style="float: left;"></div>
<div style="float: left;"></div>
</div>
you can give wrapper an overflow:
.wrapper {overflow: auto}
And now .wrapper will contain both the floats.
That's usually all that is needed.
Sometimes, in older IEs, the container also needs a width.
You can make this more complicated, but a simple way is to add a class to your CSS called .clearfix with this attribute:
.clearfix {clear: both;}
Then just insert a tag underneath what you want to clear.
Google clearfix for more modern ways to define the tag.
The best method I've seen for this is using :before & :after pseudo elements for modern browsers and zoom: 1 for older versions of IE.
/* For modern browsers */
.cf:before,
.cf:after {
content:"";
display:table;
}
.cf:after {
clear:both;
}
/* For IE 6/7 (trigger hasLayout) */
.cf {
zoom:1;
}

a little tricky, but it's work for modern browser :)
.wrapper::after {
content:"";
clear:both;
}
