I'm working some css and encountered a weird problem. Two elements are inline-block staying in the same container. Both of them have the width, height, and line-height.
But if we set the first element an empty content, the layout will be disordered (vertical alignment).
You can see the problem here
<div class="part">
<div class="foo"></div>
<div class="bar">bar</div>
</div>
.part {
width: 400px;
height: 80px;
background-color: #ddd;
margin-bottom: 100px;
}
.foo {
display: inline-block;
width: 100px;
height: 80px;
line-height: 80px;
background-color: red;
}
.bar {
display: inline-block;
width: 100px;
line-height: 80px;
height: 80px;
background-color: green;
}
I know empty content is always a bad smell of html code. But I just want to know why this is and how to solve this problem.
I found a similar question. People say we could use a   instead of empty content. Is this the only way we could solve it? Or we have other better solution?
Thanks.
use 'vertical-align: middle;' to the inline-block element
vertical-align: middle;

I am trying to center the content of a flexbox vertically and horizontally but it doesn't seem to work:
Here is the CSS:
#about{
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
}
.btn-about {
-webkit-border-radius: 2;
-moz-border-radius: 2;
border-radius: 2px;
color: #2A77C8;
font-size: 1.8em;
background: #ffffff;
padding: 1em 3em;
text-decoration: none;
text-align: center;
}
and the HTML:
<div class="section" id="about">
<div class="element"></div>
<div class="btn-about">Wer bin ich?</div>
</div>
Thank you very much for your support!
Sorry! The mistake was mine. I am using fullPage.js and the flexbox centering does not work unless you initialize the function with the option:
verticalCentered: false
Use
html,body, .section{
width:100%;
height: 100%;
}
in addition to above css

What i have
If I have two images (one includes frame and another includes the picture),
My question
can I show it in the same image by using Polymer? I think it looks like bitmap in android and I want to do in web but I really don't know how
Here is one example on how to place a picture over a picture. Since I didn't have any pictures i "faked" them with span tags. Plunkr
<style>
.pic-one{
background: red;
position: absolute;
height: 30px;
width: 30px;
}
.pic-two{
background: blue;
position: absolute;
margin: 5px 5px;
height: 20px;
width: 20px;
}
</style>
<div class='container'>
<span class='pic-one'></span>
<span class='pic-two'></span>
</div>
Trying layout inline elements I discover wierd behavior.
Can someone explain me why is there any different?
To both HTML I apply this css:
.time {
position: relative;
top:100px;
height: 5px;
background: red;
border-radius:5px;
text-align: justify;
font-size: 0.1px;
padding: 0px 10px;
}
.time > .snapshot {
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
width:2px;
height: 13px;
top: -5px;
background: red;
}
.time:after {
content:'';
width: 100%;
display: inline-block;
}
And now HTML
- Wierd behavior:
<div class="time" >
<div class="snapshot" ></div><div class="snapshot" ></div>
</div>

Expect behavior:

Update
I play a little with inline-block and justify, and I have another wierd example:
<div style="text-align: justify;">
test test test
<div style="display: inline-block; width: 100%;">test test</div>
test test test
</div>
JSFiddle example
I just wonder why second anonymous inline element is not justify?
The difference is due to the fact that inline elements are sensitive to white space in the code, and that's what's providing the spacing in your "expected" example. Add some margin-right to your .snapshot tick marks in your other one and they'll spread out like the other example.

Hi I am teaching myself some backbone from tutorials, and I want to create a table like display element using spans.
So I added a width element into my span in the template. (I know it isn't the best place to put it, but it should take priority over stylesheet properties, and is just to get an idea during development).
<script type="text/template" id="loadedwith-template">
<span style="width:100" class="library"><%= library.name %></span>
<input style="width:100" class='input' type="text" />
<button class="delete_lw" >delete</button>
</script>
However when I look at it in the browser, the element shows up as before without the width setting applied.
"Inspect element" in Chrome shows the width property, but is disabled (has a line like html strikethrough on it). This is the last thing shown in element styles before the computed styles section.
There is another stylesheet referencing the span. Is there anything causing the width to be disabled? The other stylesheet is as follows (borrowed from the backbone tutorial). (The span is inside a list).
a { color: #2929FF; }
a:visited { color: #777; }
a:hover {
color: #8F8FFF;
text-decoration: none;
}
body, button { font: 100%/1.4 "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; }
body {
background: #FFF;
color: #444;
padding: 25px 50px;
}
button, .delete, .swap {
border: 0;
border-radius: 5px;
color: #FFF;
cursor: pointer;
font-weight: bold;
line-height: 1;
text-align: center;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
button:hover, .delete:hover, .swap:hover { opacity: 1; }
button {
background: #2929FF;
font-size: 0.75em;
padding: 7px 12px;
opacity: .75;
}
h1 {
font-size: 1.25em;
letter-spacing: -0.5px;
}
p {
color: #777;
font: italic 0.75em/1.2 "Georgia", Palatino, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
}
span {
display: inline-block;
margin-right: 10px;
}
ul { padding-left: 0; }
.delete, .swap {
font-size: 0.625em;
opacity: .25;
padding: 3px 10px;
position: relative;
top: -3px;
}
.delete { background: #FF29D0; }
.swap { background: #FF6529; }
You need to specify a unit of measurement
Specifying CSS units is a requirement for non-zero values. Browsers may try to guess what you meant, but it would still be a broken stylesheet according to the standard.
I.e. there is no "default unit" in CSS, it's just that the browser may try to help you out, although it may as well just ignore your statement that doesn't specify units as an invalid one.
Try style="width:100px"
You should specify a unit, like px:
style="width: 100px"
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.
