I am trying to overlay 2 DIV's in my main parent DIV:
I want to overlay the the second div over on top of the first one. I have a problem overlaying it as I cannot keep it in the middle of the screen.
I have tried this to overlay:
The overlay works fine here, but my container is no longer center when I do this. How can I overlay and keep it center ?
div {
border: 5px solid red;
}
#first {
position: absolute;
z-index: 1;
border-color: orange;
}
#second {
position: absolute;
z-index: 2;
border-color: green;
}
<div id="container" class="container text-center">
<div id="first">Hi</div>
<div id="second">Hello</div>
</div>
Here is what you need to do (see width of both divs and text-align properties):
You can give them background color to see z-index works perfectly :)
#first {
text-align: center;
height: 300px;
width: 100%;
position: absolute;
z-index: 1;
}
#second {
text-align: center;
height: 300px;
width: 100%;
position: absolute;
z-index: 2;
}
<div id="container" class="container text-center">
<div id="first">Hi</div>
<div id="second">Hello</div>
</div>
When you position absolute, the positioned element is taken out of the document flow and positioned relative to the next highest parent element that is not the default position, i.e. not position: static;
The following will cause the absolute positioned children to stay within the containing div:
#container {
position: relative;
}
Your container's text is no longer centered because you have removed its children from the document flow. In essence, it has no content and collapses, and therefore, has no width to which to align the text.
One thing you could do is set the container to position: relative and full-width (i.e. width: 100vw), then set its children to width: 100%.
Then the inner divs will take on the width of their parent.
See this working JSFiddle.
#container {
position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 100px;
background-color: yellow;
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
}
#first{
position: absolute;
}
#second{
position: absolute;
}
<div id="container" class="container">
<div id="first">Hi</div>
<div id="second">Hello</div>
</div>
Your main issue is that the divs will not have any relative width to the parent div.
Therefore the text is still technically "centered" in each corresponding div because they're inheriting text-align: center from the container div.
However, the divs' widths will automatically be as wide as they needs to be (i.e. to fit the text, in this case).
You can remedy this one of two ways:
Force the divs to be centered
Give both divs the following (extra) CSS:
left: 50%;
width: 100%;
margin-left: -50%;
This will literally center them in their parent div.
or
Force the divs to be the same size as their parent
Give both the divs the following (extra) CSS:
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
This sets the divs to span their entire parent's height and width.
In both situations, you might need to make the .container class use position: relative, in order for the child divs to have something to be absolute to.
If you're using Bootstrap, there is no need to worry about this, as .container class already has this applied.
Hope one of these solutions helps you :)
Try this style:
#first,
#second {
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, 0);
}
div {
border: 5px solid red;
}
#first {
position: absolute;
z-index: 1;
border-color: orange;
}
#second {
position: absolute;
z-index: 2;
border-color: green;
}
#first,
#second {
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, 0);
}
<div id="container" class="container text-center">
<div id="first">Hi</div>
<div id="second">Hello</div>
</div>

I'm facing problem with breaking the line on website. What do I mean?
HTML code
<main class="clearfix">
<div class="first"></div>
<div class="second"></div>
<div class="third"></div>
</main>
<button>Add</button>
With such HTML code I'd like to have:
fixed height on main element (for example 80vh)
fixed height for all the elements first and third 40vh + second 80vh
fixed width for first and third element 50vw
fluid width for second element - but this is main problem - second element has to be in the same place and grow horizontally (to create scroll on the bottom of the site)
Please find my codepen
I've added button that'll add pixels to second element - but it destroys my website.
I'm not sure if flexbox is better than floats.
I'll appreciate any tip.
Here is the snippet:
let counter = 0;
document.querySelector("button").addEventListener("click", function() {
document.querySelector(".second").style.width = `calc(50% + ${counter}px)`;
console.log(counter);
counter++;
});
* {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
main {
max-height: 80vh;
}
.first,
.third {
height: 40vh;
width: 50vw;
background-color: black;
float: left;
}
.third {
background-color: red;
}
.second {
height: 80vh;
width: 50%;
float: right;
background-color: blue;
}
.clearfix::after {
content: "";
display: table;
clear: both;
}
<main class="clearfix">
<div class="first"></div>
<div class="second"></div>
<div class="third"></div>
</main>
<button>Add</button>
I would suggest you to go with position properties. Since you have a little difference between the order of your DOM element and their visual representation, like 1,2,3 in the DOM, but visually it's more like 1,3,2.
However, in such situation float is your enemy. I'm not 100% sure about flex, AFAIK flex would keep all the elements inside the parent element and prevent the scrolling.
If you go with absolute positioning, (since you already have the heights and widths defined)
Apply:
position: relative to the main element, it will be the base point of the child elements if they are set to absolute.
overflow-x: scroll to the main element. it will allow you to scroll horizontally when you increase the width of your second element.
position: absolute on .first, .second, .third, as you have the height and width defined, now set their position accordingly, check the snippet, you'll get it.
Finally you're good to add more value to your width of the target element.
Tip: always keep a consistency in your css units, for example, if used vh / vw use this for similar elements at least, or if px / em / rem is used, try to use the same accordingly.
Check the snippet in full page mode
let counter = 0;
document.querySelector("button").addEventListener("click", function() {
document.querySelector(".second").style.width = `calc(50vw + ${counter}vw)`;
document.querySelector("#added").textContent = counter;
counter++;
});

Image:
I have a container div (yellow) which I’d like to keep at 50% width of the window. A child of that container is an image div (purple) that stretches to 100% of the parent container’s width. and there’s a sticky label (pink) on top of the image div (position: absolute so it can be offset relatively to the image). I'd like to keep that entire half of the screen fixed positioning so it stays sticky as I scroll.
There’s also a title under the image, and that title needs to be visible no matter if someone shrinks the window vertically. So in that scenario the image div should shrink vertically, if needed, in order for that title to be shown.
Basically I'm trying to have the image div always be 100% width of the parent container div. With the image div having a max % height so it can shrink vertically. Or have it keep a fixed aspect ratio (3:4 or whatever) when it shrinks vertically.
I'm trying to avoid using fixed pixels, or ems, in the entirety of my CSS. since the website needs to be stretchy/‘fluid’ vertically, because that title under the image has to show.
HTML looks roughly like:
<wrapper>
<left-column>
<normal text and scrollable stuff>
<right-column-yellow>
<image sticky label-pink>
<image div-purple>
<image title>
Sorry if this is damn confusing my brain is fried! Can anyone pls help me?
You can divide your left and right panel by using position fixed.
If I'm not wrong with your description, this is the answer.
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="left">
<p><!--Some very long text--></p>
</div>
<div class="right">
<div class="image">
<div class="label">Label</div>
<div class="title">Title</div>
</div>
</div>
Some CSS
.left,.right{
position: fixed;
width: 50%;
height: 100%;
display: inline-block;
}
.left{
left:0;
top: 0;
overflow: auto;
}
.right{
right: 0;
top:0;
background-color: yellow;
}
.right .image{
position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 50%;
top: 50%;
left: 0;
background-color: #fff;
transform: translateY(-50%);
}
.right .image .label{
position: absolute;
left: 0;
right: 0;
top: -10px;
text-align: center;
width: 200px;
background-color: pink;
margin: auto;
}
.right .image .title{
position: absolute;
left: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: -40px;
text-align: center;
width: 200px;
background-color: #000;
margin: auto;
color: #fff;
font-size: 30px;
}

I was wondering if you can help me with this.
I have a div (in white) where I need to put two circular buttons (in green) on the borders. Everything should be done with CSS.
It should look like this:
Screenshot
Now, the thing is that I don't know the size of the white div, and I won't know it at the time of creation, because it will get added to the DOM afterwards. All I know is that the white div has a percentage width and height relative to its future parent. So, at the time of creation, since it's not yet added, any calls to width(), height() or its css values won't work.
I've seen all those snippets that tell you how to make a div with a fixed aspect ratio. I need this now, I need the button to be 1:1, but all I know about the dimensions, is that it has to be 100% of the height of the white div (and therefore, its width should be equal as its height). All the examples I've seen assume that you know the width and to make the height keep the ratio. In my case, what I know is the height (100%) and I want the width to adapt.
I have no idea how to achieve this.
This is my snippet:
body{
background-color: #DCDCDC;
}
.container {
width: 50%;
height: 7%;
background: white;
border-radius: 20px;
position: absolute;
}
.arrow {
background: green;
border-radius: 20px;
height: 100%;
position: absolute;
}
.arrow:after{
content: "";
display: block;
padding-right: 100%;
}
.arrow:last-child {
right: 0;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="arrow"></div>
<div class="arrow"></div>
</div>
https://jsfiddle.net/7bxecL9m/
If you know how can I do this without entering any fixed value (jQuery use is of course valid), I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks.
There are many variables here:
Since container's height is % and circle radius is px units, one is static and the other one will resize.
The only way to preserve 1:1 with just html/css, considering the container's height % will resize circle's height as well, would be to isolate circle's div width & height to something static like px units.
Now, since you said no fixed dimensions, the only thing I can think of is to comment .arrow's 100% height, to prevent resizing other than 1:1, and nesting a div inside .arrow to restrain 1:1 with static units (ideally impacting .arrow directly would be less code but if you don't want/can't set them on that element, maybe you consider this).
If you want the circle to remain circular as the content expands, you need to dynamically adjust the height to match the width. You could use Javascript to achieve this, but your border-radius is tied to container's in px static units, since container will always be bigger something like border-radius: 50% wouldn't work for both, 50% radius of circle would never match 50% of container's (that is, if you care about radius alignment).
body {
background-color: #DCDCDC;
}
body,
html {
height: 100%;
}
.container {
width: 50%;
height: 37%;
background: white;
border-radius: 20px;
position: relative;
}
.arrow {
background: green;
border-radius: 20px;
/*height: 100%;*/
position: absolute;
overflow: hidden;
}
.bLimit {
height: 40px;
width: 40px;
line-height: 40px;
}
.arrow:after {
content: "";
display: block;
padding-right: 100%;
}
.arrow:last-child {
right: 0;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="arrow">
<div class="bLimit">button overflow</div>
</div>
<div class="arrow">
<div class="bLimit">button</div>
</div>
</div>
Why not doing a fixed width in percent for your arrow :
.arrow {
background: green;
border-radius: 20px;
height: 100%;
position: absolute;
width: 10%;
}
body{
background-color: #DCDCDC;
}
.container {
width: 50%;
height: 7%;
background: white;
border-radius: 20px;
position: absolute;
}
.container:after,.container:before{
content: " ";
display: block;
padding: 4%;
z-index: 999;
top: 0;
position:absolute;
background: green;
border-radius: 50%;
}
.container:before {
left: 0;
}
.container:after{
right: 0;
}
<div class="container">
</div>
You can achieve using before and after CSS pseudo selectors. You check this Example.
There is a posibility to get this result using a image (that won't show) of the required ratio.
In this case, the ratio is 1:1 so we will use an image of 50px (but it can be any size)
.container {
width: 300px;
height: 20px;
border: solid 1px blue;
margin: 40px;
position: relative;
}
.container:nth-child(2) {
height: 40px;
}
.container:nth-child(3) {
height: 60px;
}
.arrow {
height: 100%;
background-color: red;
opacity: 0.5;
position: absolute;
border-radius: 50%;
transform: translateX(-50%);
}
.arrow:last-child {
right: 0px;
transform: translateX(50%);
}
img {
height: 100%;
opacity: 0;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="arrow">
<img src="https://placehold.it/50x50">
</div>
<div class="arrow">
<img src="https://placehold.it/50x50">

I have a problem...In the following example i don't want that the div who is fixed get over the div with the background red.
Here is the example:
http://jsfiddle.net/HFjU6/3645/
#fixedContainer
{
background-color:#ddd;
position: fixed;
width: 200px;
height: 100px;
left: 50%;
top: 0%;
margin-left: -100px; /*half the width*/
}
Alright, I think I get what the OP wants. He wanted a container that stays fixed on the top of the viewport, but remains confined by a parent. This behaviour is known as a conditional sticky behaviour, and is actually implemented in both Firefox (without vendor prefix) and macOS/iOS Safari (with -webkit- prefix): see position: sticky.
Therefore the easiest (but also the least cross-browser compatible) way is simply to modify your markup, such that the sticky element stays within a parent, and you declare position: sticky on it:
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#fixedContainer {
background-color: #ddd;
position: -webkit-sticky;
position: sticky;
width: 200px;
height: 100px;
left: 50%;
top: 0%;
transform: translate(-50%, 0); /* Negative left margins do not work with sticky */
}
#div1 {
height: 200px;
background-color: #bbb;
}
#div1 .content {
position: relative;
top: -100px; /* Top offset must be manually calculated */
}
#div2 {
height: 500px;
background-color: red;
}
<div id="div1">
<div id="fixedContainer">I am a sticky container that stays within the sticky parent</div>
<div class="content">Sticky parent</div></div>
<div id="div2">Just another element</div>
An alternative would be to use a JS-based solution. In this case, you do not actually have to modify your markup. I have changed the IDs for easier identification of the elements, however.
The gist of the logic is this:
When the scroll position does not exceed the bottom of the parent minus the outer height of the sticky content, then we do not do anything.
When the scroll position exceeds the bottom of the parent minus the outer height of the sticky content, we dynamically calculate the top position of the sticky content so that it remains visually in the parent.
$(function() {
$(window).scroll(function() {
var $c = $('#sticky-container'),
$s = $('#sticky-content'),
$t = $(this); // Short reference to window object
if ($t.scrollTop() > $c.outerHeight() - $s.outerHeight()) {
$s.css('top', $c.offset().top + $c.outerHeight() - $t.scrollTop() - $s.outerHeight());
} else {
$s.css('top', 0);
}
});
});
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
div {
height: 500px;
background-color: red;
}
#sticky-container {
background-color: #bbb;
height: 200px;
}
#sticky-content {
background-color: #ddd;
position: fixed;
width: 200px;
height: 100px;
margin-left: -100px;
left: 50%;
top: 0;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="sticky-content">Sticky content that stays within the bounds of #div1</div>
<div id="sticky-container">Sticky confinement area</div>
<div>Other content</div>
Old answer before OP clarified the question appropriately:
Just give them the appropriate z-index values. In this case, you want to:
Do not use static positioning. This can be done by using position: relative for the large elements, in conjunction with the originally position: fixed element.
Assign the appropriate stacking order. The grey <div> element to have the lowest z-index, followed by the position fixed element, and then by the red element.
There are some catchalls to stacking though: the stacking context is reset when you traverse up or down the node tree. For example, the example will not work if the elements are not siblings.
Here is a proof-of-concept example, modified from your fiddle so that inline CSS is removed.
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#fixedContainer {
background-color: #ddd;
position: fixed;
width: 200px;
height: 100px;
left: 50%;
top: 0%;
margin-left: -100px;
z-index: 2;
}
#div1 {
height: 200px;
background-color: #bbb;
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
}
#div2 {
height: 500px;
background-color: red;
position: relative;
z-index: 3;
}
<div id="fixedContainer">z-index: 2</div>
<div id="div1">z-index: 1</div>
<div id="div2">z-index: 3</div>
Just give the z-index.
Hope it helps...

I want to display a horizontal stripe on image to vertical align.
this is my code

margin-top: 119px;
text-align: center;
width: 735px;
}
Now problem is images are not with fixed height & width.And i want to display horizontal
stripe in middle, how can i ?
will greatly appreciate your help !!
You need to set container's css position to relative and absolutelly position the title of the image inside the container.
The trick is in usage of percentage vertical positioning and subtracting half of stripes height via margin-top.
Quick example on jsfiddle.
Edit: I badly read the question... here is the corrected answer :-)
