Flexbox container for dynamic content - flexbox

I am working on a single page template that will be used by a proprietary CMS. It is basically a header, 3 columns in majority of page, and a footer. In the middle column the CMS will inject content into it. The content can be of varying length.
I need the footer to not be fixed, so that everything resizes dynamically if the content is larger than the container's initial vh. How do I handle this?

Use component/tag contents in Marko template

Say I'd like to have a component that wraps its contents (aka children):
<article>
<header>${input.heading}</header>
<section> ... contents come here ... </section>
<article>
Then use it like:
...
<my-article heading='Test'>
Lorem ipsum <s>dolor</s> sit amet
</my-article>
How do I access the contents in the template?
Or a simple solution:
<article>
<header>${input.heading}</header>
<section><include(input) /></section>
<article>
And use:
<my-article heading='Test'>
Lorem ipsum <s>dolor</s> sit amet
</my-article>
Found the solution - <include> reusable/nested content:
<article>
<header>${input.heading}</header>
<section><include(input.body) /></section>
</article>
Then use it like:
<my-article heading='Hello'>
<#body>Lorem ipsum dolor sit <u>amet</u></#body>
</my-article>

Populate templates with content without Angular

I have a fully functioning prototype of an HTML5 news card, and I need to populate 50 or so cards with unique content. I am asking for suggestions for a more efficient way to add content to each card other than copying, cutting, and pasting from the Excel spreadsheet. The spreadsheet's columns contain each card's news category, date, title, and external URL. I have also just been asked to include the image from the news article that the card links to - I cannot imagine how that could be automated. This project uses Bootstrap styling, data-category attribute on a tag in each card, and is a Laravel website; it does not include Angular, Mustache, Handlebars, or a templating pattern. Is there a way I could create a custom template for these news cards without needing to install a framework or template engine? Could I use data attributes?
Here is the HTML for one card:
<div class="col-lg-4 col-md-6">
<section class="news-box" data-category="blog">
<figure>
<img src="/material-icons/ic_recent_actors_black_24dp/web/ic_recent_actors_black_24dp_2x.png" class="img-responsive opacity-3">
<figcaption>Blog</figcaption>
</figure>
<h3 class="h6">Title of Blog Post</h3>
<figure>
<img src="images/news/pic2.jpg" class="img-responsive">
</figure>
<p>luctus et ultrices posuere cubilia Curae; quam erat volutpat. Phasellus dignissim euismod luctus.In leo mauris, blandit quismalesuada lobortis, fringilla a ipsum.</p>
</section>
</div>
So this might not be the best answer, but these are my 2 cents.
You will first have to convert your Excel sheet to csv and then to a json object. I think this can be easily achieved with online converters like this: http://www.convertcsv.com/csv-to-json.htm (haven't tried that myself, just pasted the first google result). Your json object will then look like var foo = [{...},{...},...] (see snipet)
Create your "card template" with dummy placeholders like card_title card_img. Hide it.
In your js file, iterate over all the elements in your json object and use the template you just created to replace all the placeholders. (var newItem = myTemplate.replace('blog_title',val.blog_title)...)
Append the resulting html snippet to the cards container.
$(document).ready(function(){
var template = $(".card-template").html(); //get the card template html
$.each(foo, function(idx, val){ //iterate over the json object
var newCard = template.replace('card_title',val.title).replace('card_image',val.img).replace('card_content',val.content); //make a copy of the template and replace the placeholders with the real data
$(".cards-container").append(newCard); //append the card to the container row
});
});
var foo = [
{
'title':'Gotta catch em all',
'img':'http://i.imgur.com/tmgWXUP.jpg',
'content':'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua'
},
{
'title':'Trumpers trumping Trump',
'img':'http://i.imgur.com/C7z53mE.gif',
'content':'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua'
},
{
'title':'Aint no hacker',
'img':'http://i.imgur.com/vQGnFD4.jpg',
'content':'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua'
}

<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="row cards-container">
<!-- inject cards here -->
</div>
<div class="card-template hide">
<div class="col-xs-3">
<h2>card_title</h2>
<img src="card_image" class="img-responsive">
<p>card_content</p>
</div>
</div>
You could also try to do it with vanilla js, but it's up to you.
$(document).ready(function(){
var template = $(".card-template").html(); //get the card template html
$.each(foo, function(idx, val){ //iterate over the json object
var newCard = template.replace('card_title',val.title).replace('card_image',val.img).replace('card_content',val.content); //make a copy of the template and replace the placeholders with the real data
$(".cards-container").append(newCard); //append the card to the container row
});
});
var foo = [
{
'title':'Gotta catch em all',
'img':'http://i.imgur.com/tmgWXUP.jpg',
'content':'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua'
},
{

text-overflow:ellipsis with MathJax?

Is it possible to get text-overflow:ellipsis to work with MathJax?
Here is a (non-working) example (on JSFiddle)
The HTML:
<!doctype html>
<script src="http://cdn.mathjax.org/mathjax/latest/MathJax.js?config=TeX-AMS-MML_HTMLorMML"></script>
<div id="test">
\[
\text{2014-01-05} \quad
\begin{cases} \text{Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum} \\
\text{Lorem ipsum} \\
\text{Lorem ipsum} \\
\end{cases}
\]
</div>
<div id="test">
Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum Lorem ipsum
</div>
And the CSS:
#test{
display: inline-block;
width: 20em;
overflow: hidden;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
white-space: nowrap;
}
As you can see, text-overflow:ellipsis works for the div without any MathJax content but not for the div with MathJax content. Is there any solution or workaround?
There is currently no way of making this work.
While the MathML spec provides two comparable values for overflow -- truncate and elide -- neither one is implemented in MathJax yet.
On the bright side, linebreaking is supported for display-style mathematics.
Addendum: some restrictions apply. Not all linebreaking methods are supported; in particular, linebreaking within token elements and some alignment options are not supported.

Difference between applying attribute with d3.js vs css?

I'm testing a foreignObject, containing a div with text, within an SVG, created using d3.js.
Why do attributes for a div created by css work but don't when applied using d3.js?
I've created a fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/g6FXY/
Here's the js code:
var body = d3.select("body");
var svg = body.append("svg")
.attr("width", '100%')
.attr("height", '100%')
var html = svg.append("foreignObject")
.attr("x", 50)
.attr("y", 25)
.attr("width", 300)
.attr("height", 200)
.append("xhtml:div")
/*.attr set height doesn't. */
/*.attr("overflow-y", "scroll")
.attr("height", "150px") */
.html("<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Donec eu enim quam. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</p> <p>Donec eu enim quam. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Donec eu enim quam. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Donec eu enim quam.</p>");
and the css:
div {
font: 14px Helvetica Neue;
overflow-y: scroll;
width: 200px;
/* CSS set height works. */
height: 150px;
}
I don't understand. Is this a namespace thing? Inspecting the object shows the same html code from the resulting page but with css the page pays attention to this value and with d3.js it picks another value.
What am I missing?
The goal is to understand what I can and can't link/drop into a foreignObject and why.
CSS properties are set with .style:
.append("xhtml:div")
.style("height", "250px")
will create
<div style="height: 250px;"></div>
instead of
<div height="250px"></div>

Is it possible to create a pinterest-like layout with Bootstrap only?

I am trying to the get my head around this for quite some time now:
Is it possible to create a pinterest Layout with Twitter Bootstrap only?
I know there are jQuery Plugins like Masonry, but is there no way without them?
Thanks
Found a (free) template at http://bragthemes.com/demo/pinstrap/. It's supposed to have all you are asking for. Haven't had time to check it out, though.
Edit 2016-03-15: Bootstrap 4 allows this out of the box here. It's still in alpha, but we're getting there.
Found this solution, works within bootstrap (works even without defining column sizes), doesn't require javascript -- I snapped it into a project and it works beautifully:
http://www.bootply.com/118335
Bless you #katiejones!
EDIT: This is now out of the box in boostrap 4 http://v4-alpha.getbootstrap.com/components/card/#card-columns
Sure Thing. Took me a while to work out. Hope this helps!
Apologies for the code dump but its necessary to show the grid working.

Yes, it is possible but with some limitations.
Principle
Each column is a div (or section depending upon the meaning of your layout)
Within each column each tile is also be a div, or img etc. depending upon your design.
Practice
To make the columns you can use the following various techniques:
float the columns
display: inline-block the columns
Use the new flexible box API (non-standard implementations are creeping into modern browsers)
Use the new grid positioning API (although I'd avoid this for now as it's not supported hardly at all)
Then place various tiles (divs) in each column. Again, depending upon your design/layout you could replace the column-divs with uls, and have a list of tiles (lis). I can't speak as to whether that is semantically correct for your design.
Limitations
Resizing the Pinterest page maintains the general position of most elements i.e. elements at the top of a column generally stays near the top, even when the number of columns is adjusted for the browser width - the pure CSS solution won't do that out of the box.
Work-Arounds
While not a perfect solution, you can use media queries to influence the position of various elements.
With some time, one could get pretty close to the Pinterest layout - that said, there's probably a good reason they chose to implement said layout with JavaScript.
I know my answer is late. but just wanted this common question to be up dated. I found out 3 latest implementations.
isotope. Found this on bootstrap website. Works well with infinite-scroll to build infinite scroll web pages too.
Salvattore. This is achived with pure CSS and JS. JS is only used to pull data.
masonry.desandro.com. This is a JS intensive implementation. but it has its own features.
Since Bootstrap 4, the .card-columns class is available.
Specifications in there documentation here. It makes a nice Pinterest-like grid. 😌
<div class="card-columns">
<div class="card" id="card1"></div>
<div class="card" id="card2"></div>
<div class="card" id="card3"></div>
<div class="card" id="card4"></div>
<div class="card" id="card..."></div>
</div>
About the number of columns, though, I had trouble adapting it to different screen sizes. I finally managed to do it with :
#media (max-width: 575.98px){
.card-columns {
column-count: 1; }
}
#media (min-width: 576px){
.card-columns {
column-count: 2; }
}
#media (min-width: 768px){
.card-columns {
column-count: 3; }
}
#media (min-width: 992px){
.card-columns {
column-count: 4; }
}
#media (min-width: 1200px){
.card-columns {
column-count: 4; }
}
There we have a stuff named: bootstrap-waterfall:

But in fact, this plugin does not need bootstrap as it's dependencies. It's depends on whether you want to use bootstrap as your pin's markups or just style it yourself.

For everyone who dont want want to go through the hassle of cross browser compatibility, here is a PHP solution. Assuming you have your data in an array,
<?php $iColumns = 4;?>
<?php for($i=0; $i < $iColumns; ++$i):?>
<div class="span3">
<?php
$j=$i;
while( isset( $aData[$j] ) ):
$oItem = $aData[$j]
?>
<div class="thumbnail" style="margin-top:10px;">
<a href="">
<img src="" alt=""/>
</a>
<h3>title</h3>
<p>caption</p>
</div>
<?php
$j=$j+$iColumns;
endwhile;?>
</div>
<?php endfor;?>
