What methods of ‘clearfix’ can I use?

Closed 1 year ago.
I have this CSS project I am working on and now I am in the phase where I will start to embelish it with some effects and nice colors. However I just realized that there is a small issue with it: the beige container won't adjust its height as the blue cells move around. Could anyone help please? Here it is my code:

#media (max-width: 500px) {
.OEContainer {

JS
// config

var __CELLWIDTH = 250; // the width of cells in pixels
var __MAXSCREENWIDTH = 1130; // the maximum width of screen in pixels
var __MAXCELLS = parseInt(__MAXSCREENWIDTH/__CELLWIDTH);
var __ADJUSTMENT = (__CELLWIDTH-30)/2;
var __CELLSPERROW;
$(function() {
RedefinePanel();
});
$(window).resize(function() {
RedefinePanel();
});
function RedefinePanel() {
var viewportWidth = $(window).width();
let __CELLSPERROW = parseInt((viewportWidth-__ADJUSTMENT)/__CELLWIDTH);
document.getElementById("oepanel").style.width = ((__CELLSPERROW)*__CELLWIDTH+(__CELLSPERROW*17)) + "px";
Thanks!
You need a clearfix for the container of your floated items.
.OEContainer {
background-color: beige;
min-height: 10em;
vertical-align: middle;
padding: 10px;
max-width:1130px;
margin:auto;
text-align:center;
justify-content:space-between;
}
.OEItems {
min-height: 10em;
vertical-align: middle;
padding: 0px;
max-width:1130px;
margin:auto;
text-align:center;
justify-content:space-between;
}
.clearfix::after { /* clearfix class to expand the element back to its normal height */
content: '';
display: block;
clear: both;
}
.OECell {
background-color: lightblue;
min-height: 10em;
vertical-align: middle;
padding: 0px;
width:250px;
text-align:center;
float: left;
margin: 5px;
}
#media (max-width: 500px) {
.OEContainer {
flex-direction: column;
align-items: center;
}
}

When you use floats for all of the children of an element - it will collapse 0 height ( minus padding and margins etc ) unless you force it to expand to the size of it's children with a clearfix. Essentially it's a bug/quirk in browsers that's been persistent for a while.
Although this answers your questions I would advise against using floats wherever possible and use flexbox instead. Overall a lot less messy than floats in my opinion.

I am trying to find a javascript code for a word searcher in a text (through a form and a search button). Ι have found one which can search many words at the same time, but they need to be in a row. If the words are mixed it doesn't work. What kind of updates should we make?
Please advise

To search many words mixed
As I don't exactly know what methods you would like to use. I can't fully answer.
But take a look at this js method: https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_includes.asp
I have a basic html document with a sticky header and footer. I also have a div below the header that sticks to the header because it will eventually contain some tabs above a form. I have tried to align the form below this vertically but they don't line up. The problem is the tab div does not have a scrollbar but the form does. This means the width of the form is different to the width of the tabs. I tried to set them to 70% of the width and center but, because of the scrollbar they don't line up. I've tried some javascript to get the width of the scrollbar and then add this to the current right margin but it doesn't work. You will see the form is not as wide as the tabs div. I have spent hours on this.
Also, I tried adding a margin-bottom to the form but no margin appears below the border.
$(document).ready(function () {
setFormsWidth();
});
function setFormsWidth() {
let scrollbox = document.createElement('div');
// Make box scrollable
scrollbox.style.overflow = 'scroll';
// Append box to document
document.body.appendChild(scrollbox);
// Measure inner width of box
scrollBarWidth = scrollbox.offsetWidth - scrollbox.clientWidth;
// Remove box
document.body.removeChild(scrollbox);
// Get current width of right margin, which should be 30% of the
// width of the form-panel parent (the content class).
var formPanel = document.getElementById("main-form");
// Get the current right margin and remove the px at end of number
var style = window.getComputedStyle(formPanel);
var marginRightString = style.getPropertyValue('margin-right');
var marginRight = marginRightString.slice(0,-2);
// now addthe scrollBarWidth to the right margin
var newMargin = marginRight + scrollBarWidth;
formPanel.style.marginRight = newMargin + "px";

I suggest to show the scrollbar besides .form-panel element but not .page div, so it will not affect centering .form-panel element.
Here is how to change the css.
Set height to 100% for all elements between .page and .form-panel elements, including .form-panel itself, so that scrollbar for .page will not be shown
Set box-sizing: border-box; for .form-panel, so that the border is drawn inside .form-panel
move .footer outside .page element
If you would like to set a specific height for .form-panel, you can create a div inside it and set its height like below:
html, body {
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
overflow:hidden;
}
.wrapper {
height: 100%;
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
}
.header, .footer {
background: silver;
}
.page {
flex: 1;
overflow: auto;
background: pink;
}
.content {
background-color: green;
height: 100%;
}
.tabs {
width: 70%;
height: 50px;
background-color: aqua;
margin: 0 auto;
border-bottom: solid #FE6D73 7px;
}
.form-panel {
width: 70%;
height: 100%;
background-color: #FFF;
margin: 0 auto;
overflow-y: auto;
border-bottom: solid #FE6D73 7px;
padding-bottom: 7px;
box-sizing: border-box;
}

I'm learning the CSS grid and trying to position the items inside the grid?
can get and see data from javascript:
const profileImg = document.createElement('img');
var profilePhotoUrl = post.user.get("photo").url();
profileImg.src = profilePhotoUrl;
profileImg.className = "profile";
const username = document.createElement('username');
username.className = "user";
username.innerText = post.name;
const content = document.querySelector('.content');
content.append(profileImg, username);
putting a full CSS here:
body, html {
margin: 0;
height: 100%;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
body {
display: grid;
margin: 0;
grid-template-columns: 20% auto;
grid-template-rows: 60px auto 100px;
grid-template-areas:
"header header"
"sidebar content"
"sidebar footer";
}
header {
position: sticky;
grid-area: header;
background-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);
}
aside {
grid-area: sidebar;
background-color: lightsteelblue;
}
.content {
display: inline-flex;
align-items: center;
}
footer {
grid-area: footer;
background-color: rgb(121, 121, 121);
padding: 10px;
}
.user {
grid-area: user;
font-size: 10pt;
}
.profile {
grid-area: profile;
}
HTML:
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
<aside>
<ul>
<li>home</li>
<li>about</li>
<li>service</li>
<li>contact</li>
</ul>
</aside>
<header>
<h1>Diky</h1>
</header>
<div class="content">
</div>
<footer>
<p>this is my footer</p>
</footer>
<script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
And it looks like this. How can I position them vertically?
How can I position elements that are created from javascript?
(profile username) <--like this
(profile username)
(profile username)
Firstly, I'd recommend not to use flexbox with grid, for the same purpose, as it ruins your understanding of grid.
Here's the code:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

<style>
/* Main grid container styling */
.grid-container{
display: grid;
/* This is used for the position into 3 columns */
grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr 1fr;
/* For the margin between the three items */
grid-gap: 1rem;
/* For centering of items */
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
}
/* For styling of grid items */
.grid-container-items{
height: 200px;
width: 200px;
background: red;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

I'm using Sublime Text 3 and have been attempting to make this range slider zoom in and out of a website to make it interactive to visitors. The code seems to work here, but not on Sublime Text 3.
Are there any tips on how to fix this?

var spacepic = document.getElementById('spacepic');
function deepdive(){
zoomlevel = zoomer.valueAsNumber;
spacepic.style.webkitTransform = "scale("+zoomlevel+")";
pic.style.transform = "scale("+zoomlevel+")";
}

I have created a hover effect like whenever you hover on the box you will see a circle (actually it is a div with position: absolute whose clip-path position is controlled by Javascript offset) and when this circle reaches the second paragraph element it jumps to the top.
So I wanna know why it's happening and how to make the circle move consistently throughout the box without giving a jerk or moving to the top.
Here is my code
let container = document.querySelector(".container")
let secondDiv = document.querySelector(".test")
secondDiv.addEventListener("mousemove",function(e){
secondDiv.style.setProperty("--x",e.offsetX + "px")
secondDiv.style.setProperty("--y",e.offsetY + "px")
//console.log(e.offsetX)
})
*{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
box-sizing: border-box;
font-family: sans-serif;
}
.container{
width:70%;
margin: 0 auto;
border:2px solid red;
height:150px;
position:relative;
background: #9F86C0;
color:white;
margin-top: 10%;
}
.container p{
font-size:2.3em;
}
.container .content{
position: absolute;
top:0;
left:0;
width: 100%;
height:150px;
padding:1em;
}
.container .content:nth-child(2){
background: #E0B1CB;
color:white;
clip-path:circle(50px at var(--x) var(--y))
}

Since there are two paragraphs in place, the mouse movement triggers to choose the paragraph over the parent. You can choose to turn off the trigger using pointer-events: none on the paragraph elements.
let container = document.querySelector(".container")
let secondDiv = document.querySelector(".test")
container.addEventListener("mousemove", function(e) {
secondDiv.style.setProperty("--x", e.offsetX + "px")
secondDiv.style.setProperty("--y", e.offsetY + "px")
//console.log(e.offsetX)
})
