On (my site) I would like to place the menubar in the center of the page.
Here the code of my menubar:
#navigation {
padding-bottom: auto;
width: 960px;
margin: auto;
text-align: center;
text-transform: uppercase;
overflow: hidden;
font-family: 'Raleway', sans-serif;
font-size: 13px;
background-color: #DDDDDD;
border: 0px solid;
border-radius: 15px;
color: #000000;
display: inline-block;
}
Thanks in advance for helping me! :)
Add width: 100%; to your #navigation for a full-wdith centered menu.
Or change the display to block for a centered menu without a full-width background.
If you want to keep the yellow line under, add a 1px bottom margin. This will shift the rest one pixel lower and it will reveal a yellow line.
margin-bottom: 1px
Working JSFiddle for this: http://jsfiddle.net/qwnwkp7u/2/
Switch display: inline-block; to display: block;
I guess you need to understand something about block and inline-block elements.
Block elements , if sized and smaller than page/container can basicly; be centered with margin:auto;.
Inline-block element behaves like text and can follow text-align value.
To center your menu , you have then 2 options:
margin:auto; with a block formating, you need then just to remove your inline-block display wich does:
#navigation {
padding-bottom: auto;
width: 960px;
margin: auto;
text-align: center;
text-transform: uppercase;
overflow: hidden;
font-family: 'Raleway', sans-serif;
font-size: 13px;
background-color: #DDDDDD;
border: 0px solid;
border-radius: 15px;
color: #000000;
}
or
text-align:center; from its parent if as an inline boxe. Wich would be here :
.bg-wrapper {
text-align:center;
}
If inline-block was here used to trigger some special layout , like to hold floatting elements, you could here turn display:block into display:table;.

I am trying to mimic the WinJS grouped list view using flexbox. I am getting close (I think) except that the columns overlap when resizing.
http://jsfiddle.net/w8ts4Lnx/5/
I want the items to stay inside the group and let the group grow horizontally.
body {
height: 100%;
display: flex;
flex-flow: column wrap;
}
h1 {
padding: 1em;
}
#content {
padding: 10px;
background-color: #eee;
display: flex;
flex-flow: row nowrap;
flex-grow: 1;
}
#content > .group {
margin: 10px;
padding: 10px;
border: 1px solid #cfcfcf;
background-color: #ddd;
display: flex;
flex-flow: column wrap;
max-height: 600px;
}
#content > .group .item {
margin: 10px;
padding: 10px;
background-color: #aaa;
width: 200px;
}
Any ideas what I'm missing?
If you don't want your content to overflow the container you must specify flex-shrink: 0;
flex-shrink source
This 'number' component sets flex-shrink longhand and specifies the flex shrink factor, which determines how much the flex item will shrink relative to the rest of the flex items in the flex container when negative free space is distributed. When omitted, it is set to 1. The flex shrink factor is multiplied by the flex basis when distributing negative space.
Im not sure what winJS behavior you're trying to mimic since i've never used winJS, however I think this is closer to the proper behavior you're looking to achieve: http://jsfiddle.net/w8ts4Lnx/11/
The columns overlap because the contents doesn't fit. The Items don't fit in the group, so they flow-over.
To solve this you have to specify an overflow-strategy for the group-div, with "overflow" like this (the last one):
#content > .group {
margin: 10px;
padding: 10px;
border: 1px solid #cfcfcf;
background-color: #ddd;
display: flex;
flex-flow: column wrap;
max-height: 600px;
overflow: hidden;
}
The default is visible which make them fall outside. Read more here: http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_pos_overflow.asp
There are other options than hidden. You can set vertical/horizontal scroll, or both. Just choose whatever gets you closer to that desired "WinJS grouped list view". Try:
overflow-x: scroll;
overflow-y: auto;
or
overflow-y: auto;
overflow-x: scroll;
Happy coding!
I faced a similar issue and in my case the fix was removing the height setting on the container styling. This allowed the container size to grow with the changing browser heights.
"let the group grow horizontally"- You have to use the flex-direction as "row" on the .group, and you have to wrap the groups inside the #content, then it won't overlap anymore..
http://jsfiddle.net/gafcvq9b/2/
#content {
padding: 10px;
background-color: #eee;
display: flex;
flex-flow: row wrap;
flex-grow: 1;
}
#content > .group {
margin: 10px;
padding: 10px;
border: 1px solid #cfcfcf;
background-color: #ddd;
display: flex;
flex-flow: row wrap;
max-height: 600px;
}
I think it would be best not to set width since you want flexbox to dynamically determine it. so I removed it and then I added flex grow to increase the first group.
http://jsfiddle.net/mspriyakk/vv3tfrtv/3/
#content > .group:nth-of-type(1) {
flex-grow: 2;
}
#content > .group .item {
margin: 10px;
padding: 10px;
background-color: #aaa;
}
This is the correct answer that's fixes overlapping columns:
.flex-container {
display: flex;
flex-flow: column;
}
.flex-item {
flex: 1 0 auto;
}
It might be a little late, but I made a codepen, where I was working with this problem, maybe it will help to the people reading this question.

I have a div with text inside, with a line-height that is more than the height of the text. This means there is space on top and below each line of text.
There is a vertical border along the right hand side, the top of which I want to be aligned with the top of the text. I need to somehow align the text to the top of it's line.
Is this possible or can someone help me out here?
div{
border-left: 1px solid black;
line-height: 30px;
}
<div>Hello</div>
Without messing with the line-height:
div{
position: relative;
font-size: 16px;
line-height: 24px;
width: 25px;
padding: 0px 0px 0px 10px;
}
div:before {
position: absolute;
content: '';
top: 6px;
left: 0px;
bottom: 6px;
width: 0px;
border-left: 1px solid black;
}
The values top and bottom should equal (line-height - font-size) / 2 but due to different character height will need some manual nudging.

I'd like to have the caption text stay the same width as the image (without setting one fixed width). I've tried playing around with , etc., but that's even harder to control.
Here's a sample of the CSS. Hope this is the proper way to ask questions here!
<head>
<style type="text/css">

Whoa that's a whole lotta extra fluff. I'm looking for the same solution.
I came across this solution (modified to reflect what you are wanting):
#img-right{display: table; min-width: 1px; float:right; margin-left: 10px;}
#img-right p {display: table-caption; caption-side: bottom;}
However, this works in most all browsers except IE where in IE my #img-right spans the full width of the caption (the caption being longer than the image itself and it doesn't wrap). I am still trying to figure out how to make IE behave, as it works perfectly in other browsers.
As for your other code, I suggest simplifying it a bit to reduce load time. I modified your CSS a little bit...I'd suggest renaming the ID's to be smaller and easier to read, please, don't EVER use Comic Sans... ever. :)
body { width: 750px; }
#img-right {
float:right;
padding: 6px;
margin: 3px 2px 2px 0px;
border-top: 1px solid #ccee77;
border-left: 1px solid #ccee77;
border-bottom: 1px solid #afe165;
border-right: 1px solid #afe165;
background: #ccff99;
}
#img-right p{
font: italic 14px/16px Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Sans, Verdana;
color: #889260;
float: left;
margin: 0px 0px -3px 1px;
text-align: right;
}
In Chrome, the website bmr1.com shows the search widget with a magnifying glass as the submit buttons background image. In order to get the submit button to move I added Float:Right and Margin-top, to get it into the correct position. I also had to add position:relative, so that the button would be positioned on top of the text box. Issue is the same margin-top: of 31px that fixes Chrome, makes IE9's submit button way too high and out of place.

#search-2 form {position: relative;}
Also, I highly recommend to use a css reset! This will make every slight difference in lay-out between browsers go away. You will need to overwrite some of these values, but it saves you a lot of frustration in the long run!
An example: http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/css/reset/
I agree with the previous commenter, use a reset.css! Different browsers has different default margin, padding etc values for everything and it makes your webpage look different in each of them.
To fix the problem you should do the followings.
First, give a fixed height for your text input field:
#search-2.widget.widget_search #s{width:94%;height:20px; padding: 5px;position:relative;}
Change is that I have applied a 20 pixel height for the element
Then apply the following to the submit button:
.widget_search #searchsubmit {
background-image:url('http://technickconsulting.com/testblog/wp-content/themes/BoatMotorRecyclers/images/magglass.png');
background-color:transparent;
border:none;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
color:transparent;
height: 28px;
width:30px;
cursor: pointer;
float:right;
bottom:31px;
position:relative;
}
You should use shortcodes like background: url('http://technickconsulting.com/testblog/wp-content/themes/BoatMotorRecyclers/images/magglass.png') no-repeat; to make your code shorter and cleaner
I hope this will fix your issue.
Could someone explain me what's going on with this small piece of HTML ?
http://jsbin.com/akome5
On most of current browsers (FF4, Chrome10, IE9, IE8, Opera 11), the layout of the element looks like this :
Meh?! I don't understand why ?!
Why aren't the height and width as big as the visible box (orange+red spaces) ?
Adding a "display:inline-block;" to the element doesn't seems to really fix it.
How can I fix it ?
Thx!!
Setting a width and height on an A tag
Try adding the following styles.
a.button {
display: block;
float: left;
overflow: auto;
}
a.button span {
display: block;
float: left;
}
I'd propose a different approach involving no spans
html:
<a class="button2" href="#">Text Text Text</a>
css:
/* Button 2 */
.button2 {
background-color:red;
border:solid 10px orange;
border-top:0;
border-bottom:0;
display:inline-block;
color:#fff;
font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
font-size:11px;
font-weight:bold;
line-height:30px;
text-decoration:none;
padding:0 3px;
}
old (top) new (bottom)
http://jsfiddle.net/pxfunc/vr7gJ/
For information I manage to do it without float:left, here is the whole CSS :
a.button{
display: inline-block; /* <- added */
text-decoration: none;
}
a.button span{
display: inline-block;
font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
font-weight: bold;
height: 30px;
line-height: 30px; /* <- added */
text-decoration: none;
}
a.button .left, a.button .right{
background-color: orange;
width: 10px;
}
a.button .text{
background-color: red;
color: white;
}
The line-height instruction was the key.
