I have an HTML video player with Javascript generated controls(with background images of SVG graphics). I'm having an issue using the css calc() function, and need to resize the div's based on the video controls bar. So when the window is expanded/contracted, the controls need to adjust accordingly.
The controls div:
//Controls Wrapper
videoObj.controlsWrapper = document.createElement("div");
videoObj.controlsWrapper.className = "video-controls";
The controls are generated dynamically, so for instance, the play button is generated by this:
videoObj.playBtn = document.createElement("button");
videoObj.playBtn.className = "play btn";
So the question is how to adjust the size of the play button(which is a background of an SVG graphic), to a percentage(about 25%) of the height of the controls wrapper div.

This is the easiest way... try resizing the box :)
The parent is relative. The child is absolute. Setting the top, left, right and bottom all to 0 will actually create a spider web effect ( or stretch effect ). I used different pixels so you could see the reaction. otherwise the child will cover the parent. Hope this helps.
http://jsfiddle.net/m5wm1rLs/
.parent{
position: relative;
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
background-color: red;
}
.child{
position: absolute;
top: 3px;
bottom: 20px;
left: 3px;
right: 20px;
background-color: green;
}
<div class="parent">
<div class="child"></div>
</div>
To test that this works, you can make parent resizable:
$('.parent').resizable();
Resizing it to 25% of the parent div height is relatively easy, but only doable with a scripting language. As far as CSS has come by allow calc(), it has no support for pulling the sizes of designated elements.
Here's a simple script I threw together for you:
window.onload = function() {
resize();
}
window.onresize = function() {
resize();
}
function resize() {
document.getElementsByClassName('play')[0].style.width = (document.getElementsByClassName('timeline')[0].offsetHeight * .25) + 'px';
}
JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/zq2vzkk5/
I recommend you use ids to identify the elements you want to pull the values from, but if the positions of the elements won't change on the page, then classes are fine. You just have to update which instance of the class you want to pull the value from if it does change.
If you want a jQuery variation, I can supply that, too.
I hope this helps.
Edit:
Here's the jQuery variation:
$(function() {
resize();
$(window).resize(function() {
resize();
});
});
function resize() {
$('.play').first().width($('.timeline').first().outerHeight() * .25);
}
JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/s51vrca2/
You can do this without JS :
.play {
height: 25%;
}

I am querying how it is possible to have a site, for arguments sake StackOverflow, where an overlay div can hide all of the content apart from what is inside the div. I suppose like a camera, you can only see whats in the viewfinder, not outside of it. I want for the moment for the viewfinder to be fixed.
I found: Fiddle
which is close, but not quite. I have tried to google and ask friend devs but no luck in the resource department. Anyone got any ideas to get me started?
<html>
<div class="content">
<h1>All the page content divs</h1>
</div>
<div id="viewport-window"></div>
</html>
You can do this by applying a clip-path style to the main element you want the overlay to be over (for instance body if you want the whole page). You could possibly also use clip for more browser support, but do keep in mind it is being deprecated.
Demo
Has a static clip-path, but when moving mouse around it will change to a 200x200 viewport that follows the mouse
jQuery(document).mousemove(function(e){
var width = jQuery(document).width();
var height = jQuery(document.body).height();
var viewW = 200;
var viewH = 200;
var top = e.pageY - (viewH/2);
var right = (width-e.pageX) - (viewW/2);
var bottom = (height-e.pageY) - (viewH/2);
var left = e.pageX - (viewW/2);
var style = "inset("+top+"px "+right+"px "+bottom+"px "+left+"px)";
jQuery(document.body).css({
"-webkit-clip-path":style,
"-moz-clip-path":style,
"clip-path":style
});
});
body {
-webkit-clip-path:inset(20px 200px 200px 40px);
-moz-clip-path:inset(20px 200px 200px 40px);
clip-path:inset(20px 200px 200px 40px);
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<img src="https://placekitten.com/g/500/500" />
Actually, you can do this without an "overlay" element.
Just use a giant box-shadow and a high z-index.
In this example I've used a :hover and the 'overlay` is slightly transparent.
.wrapper {
width: 80%;
margin: auto;
text-align: center;
}
.box {
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
margin: 1em;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: top;
background: plum;
position: relative;
}
.box:hover {
box-shadow: 0 0 0 10000px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.75);
z-index: 9999;
}
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="box">Lorem ipsum.</div>
<div class="box">Lorem ipsum.</div>
<div class="box">Lorem ipsum.</div>
</div>
Of course, this effect is purely visual the other elements are still accessible.
You can also do that in 2 steps for example:
First, create a div to overlay entire page and hide everything.
Second, create a clone of your div(to be shown) with absolute position which has the same coordinates of the original location, and increase its z-index.
So, the logic is to hide everyting and show what you want over it. You could also visualize it with css or jquery animations.
Currently I have a huge div that would collapse from the height it automatically generated to the height of the title of the div. (i.e. 32px). I have it start out collapsed and then when I click on the div it opens to its full size, displaying all its inner information, and then when I click again, it collapses again. Unfortunately, two things happen:
The div doesn't completely expand to its full height.
The first large img in the div gets resized.
Now I understand why the latter is happening. It has something to do with the height being a percentage instead of a discrete number, for when I change the number to something like 500px, it works just fine. But I don't want to do that. I need it to remain a percentage for when I need to use, yet resize, large pictures.
I also feel this same problem may coincide with the former problem as well, but I'm not sure.
Please help me with this.

CAUTION: I may not have made the percentages small enough for the picture used. Please lessen them if necessary.
Just remove the height setting altogether and it will keep aspect ratio
(Demo)
img.big {
width: 85%;
}
Also you should cache your jQuery objects. I've done this in the demo by caching $(this) to var self = $(this) and then referring to self therein. There is a lot of overhead in initializing jQuery objects, so if you're using the same selector more than once, cache it.
Edit:
Because you are setting the height of the div to a fixed height on expansion, if the user resizes the window the images will grow in width as well as height. As the container is a fixed height the contents will grow past the end of the container and get cut off. If you would like to fix that, add a "complete" function to the animation to remove the height setting and make it dynamic again.
(Demo)
self.animate({
height: self.data("height0")
},function() {
self.height('');
});
You can also add height: auto; to maintain the default aspect ratio.
img.big {
width: 85%;
height: auto;
}
I need the contents of an iframe which has height of 100px(displays only part of iframe) to expand like an animation on read more button click,and fill up the entire screen(expands in all directions), and on clicking close button positioned on top of it, it needs to animate and shrink to it original size.
I found a fiddle that dooes something similar
http://jsfiddle.net/FP2DZ/.
But my issue is that my div cannot be absolutely positioned as I have contents underneath that and that gets affected if I make this one absolutely positioned.
Absolutely positioning rest of the contents also does not seem to me like a good solution
Code
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
var isFullscreen = false;
function fullscreen(){
//var d = document.getElementById('controls').style;
var d = {};
var speed = 900;
if(!isFullscreen){ // MAXIMIZATION
/*comment to have smooth transition from centre but loose covering the header*/
//document.getElementById('controls').style.position= "absolute";
d.width = "100%";
d.height="100%";
//d.left="0%";
d.top="0px";
//d.margin="0 0 0 0";
$("#header").animate({
height: 0
}, speed);
$("#controls2").animate(d,speed);
isFullscreen = true;
}else{ // MINIMIZATION
d.width="300px";
d.height="100px";
d.margin="0 auto";
d.position="relative";
//d.top="+=30px";
/* comment to have smooth minimze transition but not be placed below header */
// document.getElementById('controls').style.position= "relative";
$("#header").animate({
height: 30
}, speed);
$("#controls2").animate(d,speed);
isFullscreen = false;
}
}
</script>
<style>
* { margin: 0 }
#controls {
width:100%;
height:100%;
margin: 0 auto;
display:block;
position:absolute;

z-index:5;
}
#controls2 {

width: 300px;
height: 100px;
position: relative;
left: -50%;
background-color: green;
z-index:10;
}
</style>

<body>
<h1 id="header" align=center> Header (To be covered on Fullscreen) </h1>
<div id='controls' style="" align="center">

Probably the easiest way is to utilize the .animate({}) method in Jquery.
Check out this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/cm6v7bca/2/
$("#clickhere").on("click", function () {
$("#myframe").animate({
width: "200px",
height: "200px"
}, 1000);
});
.animate({}) allows you to change the css properties and then smoothly animates the changes onto the element. There are several different parameters you can pass. In the fiddle you'll see that I passed "1000" - that's the duration for the animation to complete in ms.
You can read more about the parameters and the method here: https://api.jquery.com/animate/
That really helps. But then the iframe needs to cover rest of the contents in the page and overlay them, Thats seems possible only if iframe is absolutely positioned. But there is so much dynamic content in the page, I do not want to absolute position the iframe.
http://jsfiddle.net/CvhkM/2833/
this is like what I want just that am not able to absolute position.
JS:
$(this).stop().animate({
left: parseInt(this.style.left)-100,
top: parseInt(this.style.top)-100,
width: parseInt(this.style.width)+200,
height: parseInt(this.style.height)+200
}, 300);
Ok, so i want to have a series of divs which are the exact width and height of the user's browser window, regardless of the screen size. I can easily make the divs stretch horizontally with "width: 100%;" but i cant work out how to make the height stretch itself. I am guessing that i need to use some bit of javascript to judge the height, and then another piece to resize the seperate divs. Unfortunately I am a complete javascript n00b and after two hours of seemingly fruitless searching and coming up with about 100 "solutions" this was as far as id gotten (Im sure that at some point I have probably been closer to the answer):
var viewportHeight = "height:" + document.documentElement.clientHeight;
getElementById('section-1').setAttribute('style', viewportHeight);
<div class="section" id="section-1"></div>
<div class="section" id="section-2"></div>
<div class="section" id="section-3"></div>
edit:
ah i should be more clear, im attempting to have all three divs take up the entire screen, so you have to scroll down to see each one - almost like seperate slides. The idea is that each one takes up the entire screen so you cant see the next section until you scroll down, rather than having three divs which take up a third of the screen.
If you haven't already tried it, you'll want to look at parent:child inheritance of elements within the DOM by way of using CSS.
What I want to STRESS is that everyone giving you JS hacks to accomplish this is not only providing you with overkill (YOU did ask for a JavaScript solution, so they gave it to you!), but it's also a deviation from standards. HTML is for structure, CSS is for presentation, and JavaScript is for behavioral aspects... setting a div to the width of the viewport on load is a PRESENTATION aspect and should be done in CSS... not JavaScript. If you were trying to change the width based on events or user interaction, then yes JavaScript is your friend... but stick with just HTML and CSS for now.
The trick is that most elements have an undefined height - and height is later defined by the content that the element holds.
If you want to 'trick' an element into having a height other than what it wants to default to, you'll have to explicitly define it. Since you want to inherit your height from the viewport, you'll have to define the height at the top and bring it down...
You might be in luck and can avoid JavaScript altogether (unnecessary). Just use CSS.
Try something like:
html, body {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
Now, when you try to set your div's later on, specify width: 100% and the height gets inherited from the html --> body --> div.
Try that and see if that solves your problem - if not, point us to a website, a pastebin, or a SOMETHING with code in it that we can just show you how to do it (whereas what you posted for code was an attempt in JavaScript which is only 1 part of the code - post the full thing either to a server or temp site like pastebin).
Here is some sample code I wrote (tested in Chromium):
The HTML:
<html>
<head>
<title>Test Divs at 100%</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="divtest.css"
</head>
<body>
<div class="test1">aef</div>
<div class="test2">aef</div>
<div class="test3">aef</div>
</body>
</html>
The CSS:
html, body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: #793434;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
div {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
.test1 {
background-color: #E3C42E;
}
.test2 {
background-color: #B42626;
}
.test3 {
background-color: #19D443
}
try this
div#welcome {
height: 100vh;
background: black;
color: white;
}
div#projects {
height: 100vh;
background: yellow;
}
<div id="welcome">
your content on screen 1
</div>
<div id="projects">
your content on screen 2
</div>
it should work for you, but little support in IE
A bit of jQuery should do it:
$(document).ready(function() {
var window_height = $(window).height();
$('#section-1").height(window_height);
});
And if you want to keep 100% height on window resize:
$(document).ready(function() {
function viewport_height() {
var window_height = $(window).height();
$('#section-1").height(window_height);
}
viewport_height();
$(window).resize(function() {
viewport_height();
});
});
try this
window.onload = init;
function init()
{
var viewportHeight = "height:" + document.documentElement.clientHeight+"px;";
document.getElementById('section-1').setAttribute('style', viewportHeight);
}
Here is a script free solution, just CSS. This assumes that the divs are directly in the body element or a parent with position absolute and the parent has no padding.
#section-1 {
position: absolute;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
background: #ff0000;
}
#section-2 {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
top: 100%;
height: 100%;
background: #00ff00;
}
#section-3 {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
top: 200%;
height: 100%;
background: #0000ff;
}

I have a .wall div with a some .toy divs inside it. I want to arrange the toys inside the wall. float:left property has done it for me nicely.
Now the problem is I want to add position:absolute for the toy divs to make it draggable later. How can I do this either via Javascript or via CSS?
Applying position:absolute, all toys will come to the top left corner of the wall overlying and hiding each other.
The width and height of the wall is constant but the width and height of the toys is variable, also the number of toy divs is dynamic and as the number increases toys need to arrange as rows.
Any suggessions will be helpful, please note the I can not avoid the use of position:absolute for dragging.

var position = $(this).offset();
var prevPosition = $(this).prev().offset();
$(this).css({
//top: position.top,
//left:position.left,
//position:'absolute',
});
});
});
</script>

Here is the code at JSBin.
Add
position:relative
To the wall div
I am working on a website that does exactly that (sorry for the non-english stuff):
http://moveit.canassa.com/cartao/4/
The link is now broken but here is a jsFiddle that shows what I am talking about:
http://jsfiddle.net/canassa/Z9N3L/
The "toy" div is using a position absolute:
.toy{
width: 100px;
height: 25px;
position: absolute;
z-index: 0;
}
The problem with the position absolute is that the toy will be relative to page and not the "wall" container, in order to fix that you must make the wall container relative:
#wall{
position: relative;
overflow: hidden;
}
The overflow:hidden is also a nice trick that I found. It makes the draggable objects go "under" the wall container.
There is no big secret to make it draggable, using jQuery:
// Creates a toy div inside the wall
$(MV.wallId).append('<div class="toy" id="' + this.getId() + '"></div>');
box = this.getBox(); // return the "toy" that I've just created.
$('#' + this.getId()).draggable(); // make it draggable
This would be a lot easier if you just used the jQueryUI .draggable(). It doesn't require the elements to be positioned.
If you're dead set on using this plugin, then you have the right idea. Let the elements flow into place and then calculate their position and set position: absolute and whatever the left and top end up being at runtime.
Set the .wall to be position: relative. Then:
var tPos;
$('.toy').each(function(index) {
tPos = $(this).position();
$(this).css({
left: tPos.left,
top: tPos.top
});
};
$('.toy').css({
position: absolute
});
The height of the .wall and the width of each .toy collapse when the toys are absolutely positioned but you can just add a few more lines to get/set their width and height in the above .each loops.
This obviously doesn't work if new toys can be added dynamically without a page reload as you suggest. To handle that you could switch them back to position: relative, add the new one, get the position of the new one in the flow, then set the position and switch back to position: absolute. Any elements that had been dragged out of place would be gaps in the flow, but I don't see any easy way around that.
the element in that the absolute should be positioned, must have the style position:relative.
(must be a parent of the target element)
The container div for every .toy must have position:relative set. That way, the position 0 for its children elements becomes its top left corner. Like this:
<div class="parent">
<div class="child">Blah.</div>
<div class="child">Blah.</div>
</div>
And:
.parent {
position: relative;
}
.child {
position: absolute;
left: 10px; /* This is 10 pixels from the parents left side */
top: 10px; /* This is 10 pixels from the parents top side */
}
Good luck.
