I am trying to get two elements to sit side by side inside a div or other element, so both two elements are always centered in the page.
Here's the catch... I cannot use any fixed widths, it is dynamically generated by javascript. It would seem that from reading other posts that this is not possible without fixed widths, but I wanted to see if any one had any other ideas to achieve the same result.
HTML:
<body>
<div class="centerdiv">
<div class = float1></div>
<div class = float2></div>
</div>
</body>
CSS:
body {text-align: center; width: 100%;}
.centerdiv {margin: 0 auto;width: 100%}
div.float1 {float:left; display:inline;}
div.float2 {float:left; display:inline;}
You can use the follwing code to center the div side by side.
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
body {text-align: center; width: 100%;}
.centerdiv {margin: 0 auto;width: 100%;margin-left:40%;}
.float1{border:1px solid black;width:10%;float:left;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="centerdiv">
<div class = float1>Hello</div>
<div class = float1>Hai</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Hope this helps!!!!!!

So I had tried a simple Js code to increment/ decrement the value of a number. I have fixed its position to center in html code itself, but it changes its position to left after the js operation. What should I do so that its position remains in center? And why does it even change its position in the first place?
So here's the code:
<html>
<title>Learning JS</title>
<style type="text/css">
.buttonBlock{
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h2 id="header-number"><center>0</center></h2>
<div class="buttonBlock">
<button type="button" onclick="increment()">+</button>
<button type="button" onclick="decrement()">-</button>
</div>
</body>
<script src="JScode1.js"></script>
</html>
And here's the JS code:
var number=0;
var string="script loaded";
function changeNumber(){
document.getElementById('header-number').innerHTML=number;
console.log("Number: "+number);
}
function increment(){
++number;
changeNumber()
}
function decrement(){
--number
changeNumber()
}
console.log(string)
I have two flexboxes which shrink on height change and nested content gets overlapped.
How to prevent this?
just add flex-shrink:0 to your element and the flexbox will stop shrinking.
<div class="flx">
Some Content
</div>
<div class="flx">
Some Content
</div>
<style>
.flx{
display: flex;
flex-shrink: 0;
}
</style>
I am starting with Twitter Bootstrap and have a question about how layout functions in it. Here is the HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Bootstrap Test</title>
<link href="bootstrap/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" />
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>
<script src="bootstrap/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="span4">a</div>
<div class="span8">b</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="span12">c</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
style.css:
div.container
{
background-color:#aaa;
}
div.span4, div.span8, div.span12
{
background-color:#eee;
border: 1px solid #888;
border-radius:3px;
}
Adding border to span4 and span8 increases their width and I end up with this:
span4 and span8 get stacked while they should be on the same line. I realize I could decrease their width in my .css file and correct this, or use this:
http://paulirish.com/2012/box-sizing-border-box-ftw/
but does Bootstrap provide means to correct this (not adding extra CSS every time I add or remove border, etc)
The span classes in bootstrap have specific widths so adding a border throws off the total for the row and forces them to wrap. To get around this I usually put the border styling on a div inside the div with the span class. Something like this:
HTML
<div class="row">
<div class="span4">
<div>a</div>
</div>
<div class="span8">
<div>b</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS
.span4 > div, .span8 > div
{
background-color:#eee;
border: 1px solid #888;
border-radius:3px;
}
I had exactly the same issue and playing with the box-sizing didn't help at all. The only solution that worked for me in the end was to use row-fluid.
The difference with row-fluid is that they are based on percentages, not fixed pixels. Then the child spans in a row always add up to 12, instead of adding up to their parent span width in the normal pixel width rows.
So for example yours would now be
<div class="container">
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span4">a</div>
<div class="span8">b</div>
</div>
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span12">c</div>
</div>
</div>
Now you don't get any issues with changing margins, paddings, or borders.
It sounds like you want your divs to stay on the same line, yes? To do that you'll have to specify a width and float them. Divs tend to always want to stack on top of each other.
Here's a fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/me73v/
Another option would be to tweak the span widths with JQuery:
$(".some-bordered-container [class*=span] ").each(function(index) {
$(this).width($(this).width()-1);
});
It seems to work well for me. I don't miss the pixels.
You may also use negative margins :
div.span4, div.span8, div.span12
{
background-color: #eee;
border: 1px solid #888;
border-radius: 3px;
margin: -1px;
}
It's not as good a solution as using box-sizing: border-box, IMHO, but it's just worth noticing it works, if you're forced to use box-sizing: content-box.
I have a problem with div positioning in my form. My page contains a sheet. With div layout as below.
In divs on the left side, there are description of the fields. (they share the same style class)
In divs on the right side, there are the fields. (they share the same style class)
After validation my page look like this:
But I want it to look like this:
Honestly, I thought how do deal with it, for quite a white, and I simlpy have no idea what to do it. My page is almost ready so I'd like to fix that with possible at low cost.
[edit1]:
My current css look simple, something like this:
div_on_left{
clear: both;
float: left;
width: 440px;
padding-top: 5px;
padding-bottom: 8px;
}
div_on_right{
float: left;
width: 500px;
padding-top: 3px;
padding-bottom: 6px;
}
[edit2]:
I have just found one solution (posted below), but I don't like it. It will crash if context of divs on the left is too big. That's due to
position:absolute;
So I'd like to avoid this property.
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
.row
{
position:relative;
}
.left
{
font-size:100%;
position:absolute;
left:0px;
bottom:0px;
}
.right
{
font-size:200%;
position:relative;
left:150px;
bottom:0px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="row">
<div class="left">Left_1</div>
<div class="right">Right_1</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="left">Left_2</div>
<div class="right">Right_2</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="left">Left_3</div>
<div class="right">Right_3</div>
</div>
</html>
It have to be a common problem. How do you deal width forms with validation that apear over the field boxes?
There's a solution for your problem but it involves a table-cell layout. The layout must have a row and two inner cells aligned to the bottom.
Here is a JSFiddle Example: http://jsfiddle.net/cvbLC/
I'm not aware of which browser support you are needing, but here is more information about this matter: http://www.quirksmode.org/css/display.html
I've got some problem with css, the content is sticking out from the boundaries.
It is expected to have a scrollbar rather than hidden overflow, but the boundaries.
Please help.

I shouldn't style the body element like it was a <div> element, better to make a new wrapper. Furthermore, from your question I gather you're looking for something like this: http://jsfiddle.net/SQDXt/
Basically, this adds the wrapper div with the scrollbar when your content exceeds the size of the wrapper. Also, the header and footer are within the second wrapper, to span the whole width when the content exceeds the first wrapper's width.
