Making text align with DIV in div-based HTML page in CSS? - javascript

My page for a clone script can be found at https://jsfiddle.net/k68dm4wj/
The problem is getting the text and image for a DIV to align next to the image with a small amount of space between the top and next to the image, like this example.
This is my code, taken from the JSFiddle above:
<div class="card">
<img class="listing-main-image" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a2/Audi_A6_Allroad_Quattro_C8_IMG_1975.jpg/880px-Audi_A6_Allroad_Quattro_C8_IMG_1975.jpg">
<div class="card-info">
<h2 class="listing-title title-wrap">Audi A6 Allroad Sport 55 TFSI 340PS 3.0</h2>
<p class="listing-attention-grabber ">BRAND NEW 2020 CAR</p>
<ul class="listing-key-specs ">
<li>2020 (20) reg</li>
<li>Estate</li>
<li>40 miles</li>
<li>3.0L</li>
<li>339BHP</li>
<li>Automatic</li>
<li>Petrol</li>
<li>1 owners</li>
</ul>
<ul class="listing-extra-detail">
</ul>
<p class="listing-description">2020 (20) reg, black, 40 miles £46,796</p>
<div class="seller-info ">
<div class="phone-code">
Tel: (0114) 49600000
</div>
<div class="seller-type">
Trade seller
</div>
<div class="seller-location">
<span class="seller-town">Sheffield</span> -
43 miles away
</div>
</div>
</div>
<section class="price-column">
<div class="vehicle-price">£46,795</div>
</section>
</div>
Although my code works properly, getting it to look similar to the page I linked to - at least for the DIV part of my code is the main problem. This relates to where I have .
There is also a second problem; I want to include smaller images and allow the user to scroll through them with jQuery or javascript, but the main image in remains the first one; also, how to include a logo after the images at the end like in the linked-to page (if there's one needed; not every div will need a logo).
Like this:
This is the intended end result:
I should add, the JSFiddle linked to has one large CSS file in there, when I've actually got three separate files - one for the layout, one for basics, and one for webfonts. For JSFiddle, I had to condense it into one CSS file there; the original file has CSS links in the header.
I would really appreciate any advice or guidance on making this look better.

Try using overflow: hidden in .layout{}. Also use "white-space: nowrap" in unordered list.It will not wrap your content on next line.For example:
.layout{
//rest of the styling here ....
overflow: hidden;
}
.ul{
//rest of the styling here ....
white-space: nowrap
}

.card-info
{....}
.card-price
{
padding: 1rem;
font-size: 0.9rem;
}
In Your CSS Change the padding of card-price from 2rem to 1rem
check the space in the image

HTML - Anchor Links Smooth Scrolling not scrolling to correct section

Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening,
I have a webpage which contains some anchor links in a nav section. Each anchor link is meant to go to a certain section of the page. They are set out in the same general format as this:
Section 1
Section 2
Section 3
<!-- Further down the page... -->
<p id="section1"></p>
<p id="section2"></p>
<p id="section3"></p>
Most of the links work as expected but there is one link that is formatted just the same as the others but the link goes to the wrong section of the page. Does anybody have any ideas about why this could be happening?
Here is the relevant code:
<div style="z-index: 1000; line-height: 32px;" class="dots">
....
<p id="d3text" class="lineText" style="display: inline;">Translation</p><i class="dot fas fa-circle"></i>
....
</div>
<p id="translation"></p>
If that section has the css position defined to absolute or there is a div before it that has position absolute or fixed this may be your problem because javascript doesn't take in consideration the height of these elements
Or if you have a float that is not cleared this also may be the problem

Javascript: Vertical Spacing between two elements

My website consists of a navigation bar (class .nav-primary), a widget box (id #mw-panel) and an article. Recently, I tried to move the widget box up to the top, by applying the following changes to my CSS file:
.mw-panel{top: 50px;}
The problem with this option was, that my element was fixed to a specific position. Instead I wanted the widget element to be exactly 100px under the menu bar (and moving when I am scrolling down the page). Instantly, I knew that JavaScript would be the correct way to solve this problem.
Because I had no success, I asked the StackOverflow community, which helped me a lot.
The JavaScript code in the JS section of the attached code snippet, was partially done by me, but it does not work as it should.
Can someone explain me what I need to change to get this JS code working? Again, #mw-panel has to be positioned exactly 100px beneath .nav-primary.
var menu = document.getElementsByClassName("nav-primary")[0];
var widget = document.getElementById("mw-panel");
var difference = widget.offsetTop - menu.offsetBottom;
if (difference > 100) {
document.getElementById("mw-panel").style.top = (menu.offsetBottom + 100) + "px";
}
.content .entry {
margin-top: 40px;
padding-bottom: 400px;
}
<body class="full-width-content">
<link rel="stylesheet" id="child-theme-css" href="http://vocaloid.de/wp-content/themes/Vuturize/style.css" type="text/css" >
<div class="site-container">

<div class="wrap">
<ul class="menu genesis-nav-menu menu-primary">
<li class="menu-item">Home
</li>
<li class="menu-item">News
</li>
<li class="menu-item">Ranking
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</nav>

<h1>Test Article</h1>

There's No such property as offsetBottom. Redo your code ONLY considering offsetTop + offsetHeight to get bottom number.
Example:
var menu = document.getElementsByClassName("nav-primary")
var TrueOffset=menu[0].offsetTop+menu[0].offsetHeight;
You're getting the error because there is no offsetBottom property.
Do console.log(menu) in chrome to see the objects available properties
**Update:
Add this to your css:
.mw-panel{
position: absolute;
}
Here it is in action

After re-reading your question, I missed one key detail: you're trying to do this JavaScript. This is your problem.
If I understand correctly, you have three items: a nav, an article, and a widget box. You want the widget box to stand 100px below the nav, and then move with the page when you scroll.
if this is the case (if not, correct me), then there's only a few things you need to do:
Keep your nav the way it is. Good job here.
I'm assuming you want the widget next to the article (on the left?). So you'll need to make two columns (some sort of containers, each height: 100%). Your widget container will have the property position: fixed; and the article will have position: static; (or relative, you decide).
Each container will have a width, you might choose 30% for the widget container and 70% for the article, for example.
Now you have two columns, one will move with the page as you scroll.
Here are some links to get you started:

Auto Arranging the elements using css

I have an application in which I am kind of stuck.
i have created a widget which needs to be placed in such a way that it needs to auto place itself.
Eg:
I have something like this on a page, now initially all these are arranged perfectly(horizontally aligned), but as soon as the size of one of the component changes
Eg:
It becomes like this. What I want is it auto adjust itself to consume the empty spaces.
I played around with the css to make it float :left and display: block, by which I am able to align each component horizontally, but still I am not able to utilize the space on my page.
Any help is appreciated
a CSS only solution:
taken you want to have 3 "connection" items per row this should be your CSS:
#wrapper{
-moz-column-count: 3;
-moz-column-gap: 1em;
-webkit-column-count: 3;
-webkit-column-gap: 1em;
column-count: 3;
column-gap: 1em;
}
.itm{
display:inline-block;
width:100%;
border-top:1px solid red;
border-bottom:1px solid red;
margin-bottom:1em;
}
.itm:nth-child(3n+1){
clear:left;
}
and this your HTML
<div id="wrapper">
<div class="itm">
<h1>connections a</h1>
<div class="info">
<span class="label">server</span>
<span class="value">100</span>
</div>
</div>
[... copy paste as many "itm"s as you need]
</div>
See here a fiddle with "add more items on click" to see the result -- old -- http://jsfiddle.net/5FsLm/ -- old --
UPDATED fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/c2nkn/
This is definitely a perfect case for jQuery Masonry. The plugin can automatically arrange columns so they can fit together. Something like this:
html
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="list">
<div class="item"> ... </div>
<div class="item"> ... </div>
<div class="item"> ... </div>
<!-- ... -->
</div>
</div>
jquery
$(window).load(function(){
$('#list').masonry({
itemSelector: '.item'
});
});
P.S.: At the moment, the official website is down for some reason, I will put a temporary link here.
UPDATE: Temporary link for jQuery Masonry (actually from cutestpaw.com which has a local copy of it, so if you want to test it, you should copy the file instead of linking to it)
If you dont want much animations and need a script that very easy to understand and satisfies your purpose try jquery.popbild.js.
You can download the project from :http://funscripts.popbild.com/jquery_popbild/
Its mainly created to arrange element in the pinterest style for three columns(uses three divisions)
If I'm understanding you correctly, it looks like what you really want is a three column structure for these widgets. In which case it would look something like this.
HTML
<div class='three-column'>
<div class="widget">...</div>
<div class="widget">...</div>
<div class="widget">...</div>
</div>
<div class='three-column'>
...
</div>
<div class='three-column'>
...
</div>
CSS
.three-column {
width: 30%;
padding-right: 3%;
float: left;
}

Is it possible to use CSS to align these divs/spans in a table-like manner? (While still retaining continuity)

I have
<div class='line'>
<div class='chord_line'>
<span class='chord_block'></span>
<span class='chord_block'>E</span>
<span class='chord_block'>B</span>
<span class='chord_block'>C#m</span>
<span class='chord_block'>A</span>
</div>
<div class='lyric_line'>
<span class='lyric_block'></span>
<span class='lyric_block'>Just a</span>
<span class='lyric_block'>small-town girl</span>
<span class='lyric_block'>living in a</span>
<span class='lyric_block'>lonely world</span>
</div>
</div>
(Excuse me for not being too familiar with proper css conventions for when to use div/spans)
I want to be able to display them so that each chord_block span and lyric_block span is aligned vertically, as if they were left-aligned and on the same row of a table. For example:
E B C#m A
Just a small-town girl living in a lonely world
(There will often be cases where an empty chord block is matched up to non-empty lyric block, and vice-versa.)
I'm completely new to using CSS to align things, and have had no real understanding/experience of CSS aside from changing background colors and link styles. Is this possible in CSS? If not, how could the div/class nesting structure be revised to make this possible? I could change the spans to divs if necessary.
Some things I cannot use:
I can't change the structure to group things by a chord_and_lyric_block div (and have their width stretch to the length of the lyric, and stack them horizontally), because I couldn't really copy/select the lyrical lines continuously in their entirety, which is extremely critical.
I'm trying to avoid a table-like solution, because this data is not tabular at all. The chord line and the lyric line are meant to be read as one continuous line, not a set of cells. Also, apart from the design philosophy reasons, I think it might have the same problems as the previous thing bullet point.
If this is possible, what div/span attributes should I be using? Can you provide sample css?
If this is not possible, can it be done with javascript?
EDIT: I'm sorry I wasn't clear at the start, but I would like a solution that allows both the chord line and the lyric line to be "selectable" and continuous.
Original Attempt... ---> CSS Tables Demonstration
div.line {
display:table;
}
div.line > div {
display:table-row;
}
div.line > div span {
display:table-cell;
vertical-align:middle;
}
For empty blocks, place html entity for non-breaking space as their contents. This should do what you want, if not, then I may have misunderstood.
SPECIAL NOTE: Compatibility for display:table-* is limited. More information
NEW EXAMPLE: Quite sure this is what you are looking for. --->
Demonstration
CSS
.block {
margin-top:1.5em;
position:relative;
display:inline-block;
}
.block .chord {
font-weight:bold;
font-size:0.8em;
position:absolute;
top:-1em;
}
HTML
<div class="block">
<div class="chord"></div>
<div class="lyric"></div>
</div>
<div class="block">
<div class="chord">E</div>
<div class="lyric">Just a</div>
</div>
<div class="block">
<div class="chord">B</div>
<div class="lyric">small-town girl</div>
</div>
<div class="block">
<div class="chord">C#m</div>
<div class="lyric">living in a</div>
</div>
<div class="block">
<div class="chord">A</div>
<div class="lyric">lonely world</div>
</div>
It looks interesting to me so I just searched over it and find following article that is discussing similar problem:
Create a table using CSS
I checked it here:
http://jsfiddle.net/MdzDp/
I think you need to use DIVs and SPANs instead of ULs and LIs here.
A similar question was asked once, and the only workable solution was indeed a combined "chords and lyrics" block (with the chords having a combination of position: absolute and position: relative). It's the only way I can think of if you want this to work reliably and in edge cases like different font sizes and so on.
JSFiddle example
Now this doesn't do exactly what you need: It doesn't allow continuous selection of lyrics. But I can think of two general directions to extend it.
A) Chords as background images: If the Chord symbols
C# E# Em Am
could be background images instead of actual text, you could use my code example and give the chord_block class a background-image of whatever Chord is in question. The image would have to contain the Chord (e.g. Em) as text. The upside is that this keeps the "lyrics line" intact. The downside is that this is not accessible, not resizable, and possibly problematic in print because many browsers don't show background images when printing.
B) Using jQuery: Using the approach shown in the JSFiddle, you have elements of the class chord_block that are already in the correct position. It should be half-way easy to use jQuery to create a new element on the fly, and add it to the document at the x/y position of each chord_block but outside the line, so you can still select the whole lyrics line without interference.
here's a crappy way to do it... i'd try more, but christmas dinner is served :)
<head>
<style type="text/css">
div.line {width:100%;}
div.line div.chord_line div.chord_block, div.line div.lyric_line div.lyric_block {width:20%; float:left;}
div.lyric_line {clear:left;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class='line'>
<div class='chord_line'>
<div class='chord_block'>...</div>
<div class='chord_block'>E</div>
<div class='chord_block'>B</div>
<div class='chord_block'>C#m</div>
<div class='chord_block'>A</div>
</div>
<div class='lyric_line'>
<div class='lyric_block'>...</div>
<div class='lyric_block'>Just a</div>
<div class='lyric_block'>small-town girl</div>
<div class='lyric_block'>living in a</div>
<div class='lyric_block'>lonely world</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
EDIT:
if you're open to structural changes, here you go:
<head>
<style type="text/css">
#chord_block {float:left; padding:2px; text-align:left;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="chord_block">
<div id="chord"></div>
<div id="lyric"></div>
</div>
<div id="chord_block">
<div id="chord">E</div>
<div id="lyric">Just a</div>
</div>
<div id="chord_block">
<div id="chord">B</div>
<div id="lyric">small-town girl</div>
</div>
<div id="chord_block">
<div id="chord">C#m</div>
<div id="lyric">living in a</div>
</div>
<div id="chord_block">
<div id="chord">A</div>
<div id="lyric">lonely world</div>
</div>
</body>
let the down-voting begin ...
as much as I love css, sometimes tables are worth using.
let me clarify, if you can pull it off with css and div's, it's all good; but if you have to spend hours trying to figure the simplest (with tables) layout out -- I think you're wasting your (and your client's) time and money.

How to prevent Jqtouch autoscrolling to div with current class?

I'm using Jqtouch to design a iphone app.
As I'm using a standard header/toolbar at the top, I want to simply have it fixed there without moving. I found out how to do this by creating a div with class toolbar and setting CSS display to block and min-height to 0px with important.
However, when it starts up and every time I change pages (technically, it's making different divs display and not display(?)), it autoscrolls to the top of the div that it just changed to, and I need to scroll up to see the toolbar (the toolbar is at the very top, above the div).
How do I make it actually scroll up to the toolbar or top of the page?
Here's a simplified layout of my current code: (For body section)
<body>
<div id="toolbar" class="toolbar" style="display: block; min-height: 0px !important;">
<h1>Header</h1>
<a class="button" href="#">Button</a>
</div>
<div id="home" class="current">
<!--Content in here-->
Link to next page
</div>
<div id="next">
<!--Content in here-->
</div>
</body>
I am not entirely sure I got your question, but It sounds like you want to have an element with "fixed" position. If that's the case, you may want to try the solution I posted for this question.
