I'm in a bit of a pickle here, i have 6 <li> element sets in the same <ul>. Here's a demo. My goal is to allow the elements to overflow off the right of the page and I will cycle through them later with javascript. For some reason no matter what I try it just pushes the other elements down. i have tried:
float:left;
display:inline-block;
every flavor of display actually, also tried clear:both; I have also tried setting the list in a div and setting the width to a ridiculous pixel width and hoping that would push it off the edge properly but it did nothing.
Any ideas?
I want to try to avoid javascript solutions, but everything is welcome.
note:
eventually these will be more that 20% width, each <li> will span the screen width and move in when jquery says so
You need to make your li width a fixed width instead of 20%, if you have it as a percentage then it doesn't matter how big your container is, the li will always be 20% of that width.
Also make sure the li container has a big enough width to contain your li's
Something like this
http://jsbin.com/eyemaf/1/edit Hope this link works I don't usually use jsbin
.bodynavs{
width:200px;
min-height:100px;
border:1px solid green;
}
#slideimages{
list-style-type:none;
padding:0;
margin:0;
overflow:hidden;
width: 2000%;
}
You'll want to try changing the white-space CSS property:
white-space: nowrap;
This will cause your list elements to be all on one line, going off-screen as intended, to be scrolled in as necessary.

I am working on this site:
http://www.thecarlossanchez.com/Test/thecarlossanchez/Galleries/stilltest.html
When I created the thumbnails everything worked great, but for some reason it added all this extra space if you scrolled to the right. Everything worked the way it should with in the window and it never made me scroll right ever, so I ignored the extra space.
Now I am adding Isotope in order to filter the content, but when a category is selected all the thumbnails drop down and to the right. Something is centering the content to all that extra space. And I am not familiar enough with jquery to figure what where the problem is.
Here is an example of how it should work without isotope:
http://www.thecarlossanchez.com/Galleries/people.html
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Upon checking on your site, I noticed you got an enormous padding size being set on your gallery element.
Currently it's :
.gallery{
width:80%;
padding:800px; /* enormous padding */
position:relative;
}
I've changed that to padding: 0; and the extra space at the right side is removed.
.gallery should look like this now:
.gallery{
width:80%;
padding:0;
position:relative;
}
Also if you want to center your gallery when the page is resized, add margin: 0 auto to .gallery element.
e.g.
.gallery{
width:80%;
padding:0;
position:relative;
margin: 0 auto; /* center gallery */
}
I have a DIV element on a JSP page whose behavior is defined in the following CSS class:
.toolbarRight .shortcut {
background-position: left center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
width:16px;
height:16px;
margin:0 8px 0 0;
display:inline;
cursor:pointer;
position:relative;
top:6px;
float:left;
border:none;
}
span.toolbarRight .export {
background-image: url('/images/excel.gif');
}
So basically when you hover over it with the mouse it should change into a pointer. The problem is that it only changes into a pointer over the bottom 1/4 of the element, over the top 3/4 it doesn't. Look at pictures below for illustration of the problem.
Pic 1: mouse cursor is over bottom 1/4 of Excel icon (changes into pointer):
Pic 2: mouse cursor is over top 3/4 of Excel icon (does not change into pointer):
Another thing that's strange is that it only happens in my current screen configuration which includes two DHTMLX grids, one in the top half of the screen, the other on the bottom (look at picture below; Excel icon where problem occurs is circled in yellow):
If I have three grids (two horizontal and one vertical) the problem does not occur:
Anybody know what the reason for this is?
Usually when I have this problem, it's because you have another item's padding overlapping the toolbar (or something else). Since the bottom 1/4 is visible, then odds are something above it is overlapping below slightly.
The other answers might be right, but you might also have a float issue here.
You can force parent containers to wrap their floated children by applying overflow: hidden;. Try that out. If it fails, use a clearfix.
Also, I don't know if the width and height of your .toolbarRight .shortcut class will stick because you have it set to display: inline. Try inline-block or just plain old block when you need to apply width and height to things.
It is your
position:relative;
top:6px;
combo - the element sits 6px lower than where you think. The image may be up higher but the container isn't. Move your pointer to the image, not the container for the image
I'm trying to lay one div over another. This is really simple if you know the dimensions of the div.
Solved here:
How to overlay one div over another div
So, here is my HTML:
<div class="container">
<div class="overlay"></div>
<div class="content"></div>
</div>
In my case, I don't know the exact dimensions of the "content" or "container" div. This is because I don't have control over any of the content in the div (we are making our app extensible for 3rd party developers).
See my example on jsFiddle
The overlay should cover the content entirely. Width 100% and Height 100%. However, this does not work because in my example I positioned the overlay absolutely.
One solution is to use JavaScript to get the size of the content div and then set the size of the overlay. I don't like this solution much since if image sizes are not specified, you need to wait until images are loaded and recalculate the size of the div.
Is there any way of solving this problem in CSS?
You could set the position to absolute and then set all 4 positioning values to 0px which will make the box expand. See a demo here: http://jsfiddle.net/6g6dy/
This way you dont have to worry about recalculating things if you want padding on the overlay or the container (like you would if you used actual height and width values), because its always going to be adjusted to the outer dimensions of the box.
It's not possible to do this because:
The overlay is not contained by anything to restrict it's size (since there is no height/width applied to the container).
The size of the content div can change as content loads (since it has no fixed width/height).
I solved this by using JavaScript*. Eg.
function resizeOverlay() {
$('.overlay').css({
width: $('.content').width()
height: $('.content').height()
});
}
$('.content').find('img').on('load', resizeOverlay);

Hey are you looking like this : http://tinkerbin.com/Vc4RkGgQ
CSS
.container {
position:relative;
background:blue;
color:white;
}
.content {
position:absolute;
top:0;
left:15px;
background:red;
color:yellow;
}
I do not know what you are exactly trying to do but this might work:
container must be relative: anything from static
overlay and content are absolute :move top/left in first non static parent; no flow.
Give same top/left to be on top and higher z-index for upper element.
See this demo: http://jsfiddle.net/rathoreahsan/kEsbx/
Are you trying to do as mentioned in above Demo?
CSS:
#container {
position: relative;
}
.overlay,
.content{
display:block;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
}
.overlay{
z-index: 10;
background: #ccc;
}
You can indeed do this without JavaScript. Your problem is that #container element has 100% width relative to the whole page. To fix this you can:
a) position it absolutely,
#container {
position: absolute;
}
b) make it float or
#container {
float: left;
}
c) make it display as table cell
#container {
display: table-cell;
}
One of the above is enough, you don't need to apply all. Also you should not position .content absolutely as this will prevent #container to have the same width/height.
If you are worried about images loading after the height is set you can go ahead and set the dimensions of the image in the containing div and use the padding-bottom hack. This way when the browsers paints over the page it knows how big the image will be before it loads.
I will try to keep this as short and specific as I can.
This is what I need to display:
-----------------------------------------
#div1
-----------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------
#div2
-----------------------------------------
This is how I need the HTML structure to be:
<div id="div2">...</div>
<div id="div1">...</div>
The reason I need the second div to be higher in the HTML structure is because when the page is printed in Firefox, I have to use fixed position for an image that is contained in "div2". If "div2" isn't at the top of the structure, the image will be printed on the second page, and therefore cannot be moved to the first page using fixed position (as far as I know).
I cannot for the life of me think how I can do this with CSS2 (maybe CSS3?). I also looked into "Any Order Column" but I don't think that will work since I'm dealing with rows, not columns.
Any help would be appreciated :)
Edit: #div2 cannot be positioned absolutely because #div1 needs to be able to collapse, and therefore #div2 needs to follow.
For this you can use css3 display:box property for this. Write like this:
.outer{
-moz-box-direction: reverse;
-moz-box-orient: vertical;
display: -moz-box;
}
Check this http://jsfiddle.net/phSfD/2/
You can do it like this.
HTML:
<div class="outer">
<div class="a"> [div a] </div>
<div class="b"> [div b] </div>
</div>
CSS:
.outer { position:relative; }
.a { position:absolute; top:100%; }
Test it out: http://jsfiddle.net/phSfD/1/
The benefit of this approach is you don't need to know the sizes of either element for it to work.
This works because the height of the outer element is determined by the height of its contents. Since div A is absolutely positioned, it doesn't affect the height of its container, so the container's height is the same as div B's height. Setting A's top to 100% (of the container's height) means it will appear just below the container (and therefore just below div B).
One way to solve this is to set absolute positioning of the two divs. You'll need to have a parent with relative position and then set the absolute position of the two divs: div1 above the div2.
When you do so, remember to indicate in the <style> tag that these styles only apply to the on-screen rendering and provide a separate set of styles for printing, so that on print div would would appear below div2.
When you set position: fixed on an element, it is positioned relative to the browser window, irrespective of its container.
So, this
#div1 img{ position: fixed }
and this
#div2 img{ position: fixed }
will render the same result. You can write them in any order.
You can use display: table-*-group properties for vertical reordering of blocks of arbitrary height (dynamically resized in particular):
<style>
#example {display: table; width: 100%; }
/* Will display at the bottom of pseudo-table */
#block-1 {display: table-footer-group; }
/* Will display in the middle */
#block-2 {display: table-row-group; }
/* Will display at the top */
#block-3 {display: table-header-group; }
</style>
<div id="example">
<div id="block-1">First</div>
<div id="block-2">Second</div>
<div id="block-3">Third</div>
</div>
Works in all browsers including IE8+ (there is a small limitation in IE8).
For IE6/7 (if they do matter), elements can be swapped with JavaScript.
For details, see my article.
Can I dynamically ensure that the content always remains centered in the window pane on this website?
Right now it uses a static margin-left on the .items class, and it uses jquery tools.
http://andstones.ca/newsite/
Can I do it in just CSS or CSS and Javascript?
Thanks,

I didn't quite see what part you were talking about as it looks like most of it works just fine.
For auto-centering, you should use auto for margins:
margin: 0 auto;
Put that one whatever div you want centered.
Lets say that you want to center a container with 900px wide, the most cross browser way that I've used is:
div#container{
width:900px;
position:relative;
left:50%;
margin-left:-450px;
}
This goes to the center of the x axis and stays there regardless of other elements of that page!
Of course that this only works with a fixed width and not a dynamic one!
If i remember correctly, you have to use the following in IE
text-align: center;
Even to center a div
