While I am open to any solution, counting tables, Bootstrap and Flexbox, a purely CSS solution using just div elements is greatly appreciated.
HTML
<div class="sentence-summary">
<div class="stat bookmarked">
<i class="fas fa-bookmark"></i>
<span class="count">999</span>
</div>
<div class="stat upvotes">
<i class="fas fa-thumbs-up"></i>
<span class="count">999</span>
</div>
<div class="stat downvotes">
<i class="fas fa-thumbs-down"></i>
<span class="count">999</span>
</div>
<div class="main">
<p>{{ $sentence->body }}</p>
</div>
</div>
SCSS
.sentence-summary {
div {
display: inline-block;
}
.stat {
width: 40px;
text-align: center;
span {
display: block;
font-size: 10px;
}
&.bookmarked {
background-color: red;

I would recommend using a grid layout for this. You can specify that the first three columns (stats) should be 40px wide. And then use '1fr' to say that the 'main' sections should take up the remaining space. Using a grid means that the heights will stay the same.
You can use 'grid-column-gap' to specify the amount of space you would like between each column. Something like this:
.sentence-summary {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 40px 40px 40px 1fr;
column-gap: 5px;
grid-auto-rows: 40px;
}
Make sure you use the appropriate browser prefixes as this syntax isn't supported by all browsers. I usually use this auto-prefixer.
Update: Adding grid-auto-rows: 40px; makes sure your 'stats' stay square!

TL;DR: Here's a CodePen.
I have a UI with an image and a grid of text with long lines which looks like this:
I'm using CSS Flexbox with two elements: the image and the text. And then to lay out the text, I'm using CSS Grid. Now, when I view this on a narrow screen for mobile, it correctly wraps everything and stacks the two elements:
But on desktop, with a slightly narrower div, the flex box wraps before the grid text like this:
How can I get the text to wrap while leaving the flex box alone in this case? I fear I may need to use some media queries, but I'm not even sure if I'm using the right CSS components for this.
Here's the code:
index.html:
<div class="media-callout">
<div class="media-thumb">
<img height="170" width="120">
</div>
<div class="media-callout-grid">
<div class="media-callout-key">Authors</div>
<div>Babalola, J & Ogunkola, Babalola</div>
<div class="media-callout-key">Year</div>
<div>2013</div>
<div class="media-callout-key">Title</div>
<div class="media-callout-value">Scientific Literacy: Conceptual Overview, Importance and Strategies for Improvement</div>
<div class="media-callout-key">Journal</div>
<div><em>Journal of Educational and Social Research</em></div>
<div class="media-callout-key">Location</div>
<div>vol. 3, no. 1, pp. 265–274</div>
<div class="media-callout-key">DOI</div>
<div>10.5901/jesr.2013.v3n1p265</div>
</div>
</div>
style.css:
.media-callout {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
justify-content: center;
row-gap: 20px;
column-gap: 10px;
padding: 1em;
max-width: max-content;
}
.media-thumb img {
float: left;
height: 175px;
width: auto;
}
.media-callout-grid {
display: grid;
font-size: 12pt;
grid-template-columns: 6em 1fr;
align-content: center;
gap: 0 15px;
}
.media-callout-key {
text-align: right;
font-weight: bold;
}
.media-callout-value {
word-break: break-word;
word-wrap: break-all;
}
A media query does indeed resolve this:
#media screen and (min-width: 600px) {
.media-callout {
flex-wrap: nowrap;
}
}
The query must come AFTER the .media-callout block. I also had to use this approach to prevent the image from being squashed.
I am trying to make a nice layout of items in a grid using a bin packing algorithm like packery or masonry. I Already have isotope installed so will use the packery plugin for that.
If you look at the example here http://codepen.io/desandro/pen/vdwmb this is exactly the kind of thing I need, but the problem I think I'm going to face is the content of the items are via a CMS.
<h1>Isotope - packery layout mode</h1>
<div class="grid">
<div class="grid-item grid-item--width2"></div>
<div class="grid-item grid-item--height2"></div>
<div class="grid-item"></div>
<div class="grid-item"></div>
<div class="grid-item grid-item--width2 grid-item--height2"></div>
<div class="grid-item grid-item--width2"></div>
<div class="grid-item grid-item--width2"></div>
<div class="grid-item grid-item--height2"></div>
<div class="grid-item"></div>
<div class="grid-item grid-item--width2"></div>
<div class="grid-item grid-item--height2"></div>
<div class="grid-item"></div>
<div class="grid-item"></div>
</div>
* { box-sizing: border-box; }
body { font-family: sans-serif; }
/* ---- grid ---- */
.grid {
background: #DDD;
max-width: 1200px;
}
/* clear fix */
.grid:after {
content: '';
display: block;
clear: both;
}
/* ---- .grid-item ---- */
.grid-item {
float: left;
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
background: #0D8;
border: 2px solid #333;
border-color: hsla(0, 0%, 0%, 0.7);
}
.grid-item--width2 { width: 200px; }
.grid-item--height2 { height: 200px; }
$('.grid').isotope({
layoutMode: 'packery',
itemSelector: '.grid-item'
});
Possibly more of a maths question, but Im assuming for packery to work the items all have to be of a size in relation to each other, ie in the example above all the items are multiples of the smallest item.
Is this assumption correct, and is there anything else i need to consider?
I have been struggling with the flexbox column layout. I am trying to create a 3 column layout that stretch vertically all the way to the end of the page (height:100%;). However, 2 of the columns must have specific widths that still scale down on different size screens, is this possible?
CSS:
.container {
display: -webkit-flex;
display: flex;
height: 100%;
}
.initial {
-webkit-flex: initial;
flex: 1;
width: 510px;
min-width: 100px;
}
.flex1 {
-webkit-flex-basis: 28px; /* Safari 6.1+ */
flex-basis: 28px;
}
.flex2 {
-webkit-flex: 2;
flex: 2;
}
HTML
<div class="container">
<section class="elem initial">
<div id="Left">
<h1>Heading</h1>
<p>Lorem Ipsum...</p>
</div>
</section>
<section class="elem flex1">
<div class="col"><img src="img/stripe"/></div>
</section>
<section class="elem flex2">
<div id="Right">
<h2>Header</h2>
<ul>
<li>List item.</li>
</ul>
</div>
</section>
</div>
Here's a working example of what you might be looking for, if I've understood the question correct.
I've commented the important stuff in the code. Take a look at the code, and compare it with your own. You've been using some unnecessary flexbox elements such as flex-basis: 28px; which should just be width: 28px;

<section class="elem initial">

<ul>
<li>List item.</li>

</div>

CSS
html, body {
height: 100%; /* Makes it possible to illustrate the full 100% height */
}
.container {
display: flex; /* Adds flex functionality */
height: 100%;
}
.initial {
width: 510px;
min-width: 100px;
background-color: orange;
}
.flex1 {
width: 28px;
background-color: red;
}
.flex2 {
flex: 1; /* Fills the rest of the available space */
background-color: green;
}
UPDATE
I forked the pen in order to create a new working example based on the comments from the author of this question. He wanted the columns to wrap and the gutter to disappear at a certain size - I've used media queries to accomplish this.

HTML is the same.
CSS
html, body {
height: 100%; /* Makes it possible to illustrate the full 100% height */
}
.container {
display: flex; /* Adds flex functionality */
flex-direction: column;
height: 100%;
}
#media all and (min-width: 768px) {
.container {
flex-direction: row;
}
}
.initial {
width: 510px;
min-width: 100px;
background-color: orange;
}
.flex1 {
display: none;
}
#media all and (min-width: 768px) {
.flex1 {
display: flex;
width: 28px;
background-color: red;
}
}
.flex2 {
flex: 1; /* Fills the rest of the available space */
background-color: green;
}
Remember your vendor-prefixes.
Dear fellow stackoverflowers,
I'm having a peculiar problem I can't seem to find the solution for.
I'm trying to apply the width of the largest div to the smaller divs, so that they appear equal in width, through flexboxing. Unfortunately, all the solutions so far have been futile efforts. Do you have any idea why the different divs in the example I've linked to won't display the same width as the largest element? I know the boxes get their width from the content, but I just can't seem to make them behave the way I want.

I have a simple problem which i cannot figure out. Look at this html code:
<div id="container">
<div id="content">
<div id="menu">
<ul>
<li>pagina's</li>
<li>home</li>
<li>kamers</li>
<li>over ons</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="clearfloats"></div>
<div id="cmscontent">
<div id="sidebar">
<ul>
<li>overzicht van de pagina's</li>
<li class="last">pagina toevoegen</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div id="main">
<h1 class="maintitle">
overzicht van de pagina's
</h1>
<div id="maincontent">
sdfsd
</div>
</div>
<div class="clearfloats"></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
#container {
width: 84%;
margin: 0 auto;
}
#content {
margin-top: 50px;
min-width: 1140px;
}
#cmscontent {
background-color: #ffffff;
border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;
padding: 44px 30px 44px 30px;
position: relative;
z-index: 3;
}
#sidebar{
padding: 14px 24px 14px 24px;
width: 306px;
background-color: #f8f8f8;
float: left;
}
#main {
float: left;
margin-left: 80px;
width: 100%;
}
The problem is that the last container: #main, standard is only as wide as the content it has. So i'm obliged to add a fixed width to it (px). The whole point of my design is that i have floating percentual divs so that's a bummer. Adding 100% width or any other number in %, also has problems of its own..
Is there anyone that a solution for me?
Thank you!

I haven't finetuned anything; i only just html'ed for Safari as of the moment.
The problem is that the last container: #main, standard is only as wide as the content it has.
Tried using display: block for #main ?
What are you actually trying to do here? Are you trying to make a flexible design?
