I have made a very basic quote "carousel" to display customer quotes on a website by making the elements visible one at a time.
The quotes are absolutely positioned inside a container over each other then made visible accordingly. How can i make the parent container the height of the tallest quote (plus padding) without having to put a fixed pixel height on the container as technically the parent container is now empty. with css only.
<div class="parent-container">
<div class="quote child-element">Lorem Ipsum</div>
<div class="quote child-element">Lorem Ipsum</div>
<div class="quote child-element">Lorem Ipsum</div>
</div>
I will be adding media query breakpoints for the text at a later stage.

I assume you're trying to have the text center vertically in a fixed height. To do this you can use the table property for display with vertical align, browser support ->
http://caniuse.com/#search=css-table
#fader {
display: table;
}
.table-cell {
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
}
Example:
https://jsfiddle.net/vkchxz3q/31/
To make the height dynamic just take away the height on #fader
https://jsfiddle.net/vkchxz3q/33/
I would remove position:absolute;, then work out what height the container should be, and the apply absolute positioning in your interval.
https://jsfiddle.net/vkchxz3q/35/
var s, q, l;
s = $('#fader');
q = s.children('blockquote');
l = q.length;
var i = 0;
setInterval(function() {
q.eq(i).removeClass('active');
i == l - 1 ? i = 0 : i++;
q.eq(i).addClass('active').css('position', 'absolute');
}, 10000);
var intHeight = 0;
q.each(function() {
if ($(this).outerHeight() > intHeight) {
intHeight = $(this).outerHeight();
}
});
$('#quote-container').height(intHeight);
* {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
#quote-container {
width: 100%;
padding: 40px;
height: 300px;
/* Definative Height */
background: #353535;
}
#fader {
display: block;
position: relative;

Make all of the elements have a great negative margin-left when they're not .active and float to one side instead of using absolute positioning. Then give their container, #quote-container, overflow: auto; to make it account for floating elements' height.
https://jsfiddle.net/vkchxz3q/36/
I have come to a solution using float: left; instead of position: absolute; and applying margin-right: -100%; see jsfiddle.
#fader{
position: relative;
}
.quote{
float: left;
margin-right: -100%;
}

Thanks for the suggestions and help.
Would be nice to include some vertical alignment in a future revision, please feel free to update the jsfiddle

I am trying to animate a div upwards when a user hovers on the div.
I am able to animate the div making it bigger, however the animation happens downwards. I am trying to keep the bottom of the div remain in the same place, and have a smooth animating increasing the size of the div upwards.
See jsfiddle here which demonstrates what my code is currently doing.
Please see code below:
.box {
height: 170px;
padding-bottom: 15px;
width: 50%;
}
.content {
background-color: #e3e4e6;
height: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
.content:hover {
height: 110%;
}
<div class="box">
<div class="content">TEST</div>
</div>
You can do this using transform:scaleY() and set the transform-origin to bottom. I also put a margin-top:100px to see the effect better. Also you can use transition to make the scale smoother
You also need to scale back the text.
See here: jsfiddle
You need to scale the text back to it's original state in the same time that you scale the div. so if you scale the div 2 times. You need to scale back the text with 1/2 , same if you scale 3 times...scale back with 1/3
In this case you enlarge .content by 1.5 so you need to scale down the text inside by 1/1.5 = 0.66
Code:
.box {
height: 170px;
padding-bottom: 15px;
width: 50%;
}
.content {
background-color: #e3e4e6;
height: 100%;
text-align: center;
margin-top: 300px;
transition:0.3s;
}
.content:hover p {
transform: scaleY(0.66)
}
.content:hover {
transform: scaleY(1.5);
transform-origin: bottom;
}
<div class="box">
<div class="content">
<p>
TEST
</p>
</div>
</div>
Try it like this (I have no other idea...): You can give to the class "box" a bigger height (I put a red border around, so you can see it) than the class "content". After that, you can use flexbox, to put the class "content" on the bottom. After that, you can do it with hover to change your heigth upwards and fill it. With transition you can make a nice animation. I hope this is good enough. Perhaps there is also a way with jQUery at the moment I havn't got an idea. Let me know, if this helps you (I'm not sure if I understanded the question well) - Cheers. (Important: This heights and so on are just random values for testing)
.box {
display: flex;
justify-content: flex-end;
flex-direction: column;
height: 100px;
border: 1px solid red;
}
.content {
background-color: #e3e4e6;
height: 50px;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
-webkit-transition: height 1s;
/* Safari */
transition: height 1s;
}
.content:hover {
height: 100%;
}
<div class="box">
<div class="content">TEST</div>
</div>
If you just want to use css, just use:
.content:hover {
margin-top: -50px;
height: 110%;
}
See jsFiddle
since there isn't any space at top to expand, you may give an extra margin initially and remove it on hover like this JsFiddle -
.box {
height: 170px;
padding-bottom: 15px;
width: 50%;
}
.content {
background-color: #e3e4e6;
height: 100%;
text-align: center;
margin-top:25px;
}
.content:hover {
height: 110%;
margin-top:0;
}
Set top property with the value of height - 100 * -1
https://jsfiddle.net/x3cL1cpt/7/
.content:hover {
height: 110%;
top: -10%;
position: relative;
}
Why position relative? It's because I move the box, but without modifying the space that the box occuped. If you need to modify that space, change top with margin-top.
Replace this CSS with your current, needed to add transition:
.box {
height: 170px;
padding-bottom: 15px;
width: 50%;
}
.content {
background-color: #e3e4e6;
height: 100%;
text-align: center;
transition: 1s all ease;
}
.content:hover {
transform: scaleY(1.2);
transform-origin: bottom right;
}
I've been playing with "marginLeft: "100%"" but that only moves the div off the screen entirely. I want the div, onClick, to float:right against the edge of the right side of the screen.

Sorry if it took this long, something came up. Right, so I got it working. Hope this helps
JSFIDDLE
As for CSS, I kept it as simple as possible. The trick here is to make your DIVs display inline-block, so that at the very start, they are neatly stacked next to each other. You will also want to have them all be float right.
CSS:
.box-container{
width: 100%;
height: 115px;
position: relative;
overflow: hidden;
}
.box-item{
width: 300px;
height: 115px;
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
float: right;
cursor: pointer;
}
.b0{
background: #7888D9;
}
.b1{
background: #76D54E;
}
.b2{
background: #DF7B41;
}
Next, in your HTML, you need to give each DIVs the same classname, which will simplify the Jquery click event. Finally, we will also give our first DIV a classname of "current". This will control which DIV must move and which DIV must wait and stay idle as long as the one beside him hasn't moved. You'll understand soon enough.
HTML:
<div class="box-container">
<div class="box-item b0 current">
Box 1
</div>
<div class="box-item b1">
Box 2
</div>
<div class="box-item b2">
Box 3
</div>
</div>
Finally, as for the Jquery, this is where it gets a bit complicated, I'll try to explain the best I can. Bare in mind that math is not quite my forte. Since our DIVS all float right in the CSS, well, they will all be stacked to the right (of course). To counter that and position them to the left, we need to give each DIV a right position. This position will be some kind of offset. To get this number, we need to multiply the width of a DIV by the total number of DIVs. After that, we must subtract this number to the total width of our DIVs' container (basically the browser width).
As for the click event, we must first check if the DIV we clicked has our "current" classname. If it does, we move it, if not, we don't. The easy part is moving them. By resetting a DIV's right value to 0, each one will slide accordingly to the right with our animate event. Once this is done, we switch the "current" classname to the next DIV. We then increment a counter. This will help to see if all DIVs has been moved.
Once all DIVs have been moved to the right, there is an IF statement that will check our counter and see if it is greater than our total number of DIVs. If it is, the sliding motion is inverted and all DIV's will return to the left. In the same manner, if the clicked element is not the current DIV, it will not move. if it is, it will move back to the left. When all DIV's have been move back in default position, ou counter is reset and our "current" classname is reassigned to the very first DIV.
The resize function is not optimal, but it deals with any responsive issue you could face. It will reset all DIVs to the left and recalculate the offset, so that each DIV never slide offscreen. Needs a little work, but it's better than nothing for now.
JQUERY:
var $boxWidth;
var $screenWidth;
var $offsetRight;
var $count = 0;
$(function () {
$boxWidth = $('.box-item').width();
$screenWidth = $('.box-container').width();
$offsetRight = $screenWidth - ($boxWidth*$('.box-item').length);
$('.box-item').css('right',$offsetRight);
$('.box-item').click(function(event) {
if($(this).hasClass('current')){
if($count < $('.box-item').length){
$(this).animate({
right: "0px",
}, 2000, function(){
$count++;
$(this).removeClass('current');
if($count < $('.box-item').length){
$(this).next().addClass('current');
}
else{
$(this).addClass('current');
}
});
}
else{
$(this).animate({
right: $offsetRight,
}, 2000, function(){
$count++;
$(this).removeClass('current');
console.log($count);
if($count < ($('.box-item').length*2)){
$(this).prev().addClass('current');
}
else{
$(this).addClass('current');
$count = 0;
}
});
}
}
});
window.onresize = myResize;
myResize();
});
function myResize(){
$screenWidth = $('.box-container').width();
$offsetRight = $screenWidth - ($boxWidth*$('.box-item').length);
$('.box-item').each(function(){
$(this).css('right',$offsetRight);
});
$('.box-item').eq(0).addClass('current');
$count = 0;
}
My Goal:
Here is what I'm trying to accomplish. We have an list of categories that appear on a page. The number of categories is unknown. The description can be pretty much any size... yet we want a uniform look. So, we are using the dotdotdot plugin to put ellipses on the paragraphs. When you hover over the item, it should expand the description and show the full text.
I want that hover to float or overlay whatever is below it. Due to some of my layout items (see my NOTE below) my sccontainer element doesn't have a set height. It's dynamic based on the content... with a max-height set.
When I change that height to AUTO in the hover event (which causes the text to flow down and displays all the content), I lose the background on the sccontainer element.
Some pertinent CSS:
.sccontainer { width: 280px; zoom: 1; float: left; margin: 5px 10px; padding: 0; border: 1px solid #8697a1; -moz-border-radius: 5px; border-radius: 5px; -moz-box-shadow: 0 0 6px #777; -webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 6px #777; box-shadow: 0 0 6px #777; -ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow(Strength=6, Direction=90, Color='#777777')"; filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow(Strength=6, Direction=90, Color='#777777'); position: relative; background: #fff url(http://imagecss.com/images/background.jpg) repeat-x left top; }
.sccontainer .parent { position: absolute; width: 270px; }
.sccontainer .image { margin: 5px; float: left; }
.sccontainer .image img { width: 48px; }
.sccontainer .icon { margin: 0; }
.sccontainer p { margin: 8px; padding: 0; max-height: 145px; }
.sccontainer h1 { line-height: 24px; display: inline-block; vertical-align: middle; width: 200px; height: 48px; padding: 0; margin: 5px 0 0 0; overflow: hidden; }
.sccontainer h1 a { padding: 0; font-size: 24px; color: #fff; font-weight: normal; }
.sccontainer .content { position: relative; height: 210px; padding: 0 5px; font-size: 15px; line-height: 22px; width: 270px; }
.sccontainer a:hover { text-decoration: underline; }
.sccontainer.hover { height: 250px; }
.sccontainer.hover .content { height: auto; }
.sccontainer.hover .content p { min-height: 135px; max-height: none; }
jsFiddle:
Here is a jsFiddle version of what I have right now. You can see this in action, if you hover over the text in the blue box. It's a bit large, so I used jsFiddle instead of putting all the bits here code tags...
http://jsfiddle.net/ztMM5/1/
And here is a mockup of what I'd like to see. Method 5a expands slightly to show the full content.... yets overlaps the red line. None of the other items move around or are affected.
NOTE: Sorry for the size of things. I've trimmed it down about as much as I can. Also, I am modifying an existing intranet website... it's 3rd party, so I have limited control of the source code - hence the table usage. :(
What I've Tried/Researched:
I believe the issue stems from the fact that my sccontainer item is floating, and doesn't have a height specified. That's why the image disappears.
I had a version that kept the background... but the sccontainer box didn't resize like we need... the text just overflowed it... rather ugly.
I don't know enough CSS to make this all work right. I'm not adverse to using jQuery to do more if needed.
I did work on a version that handled most of the hover using the :hover stuff... but it didn't work quite as well as the jQuery approach.
This answer may not solve your specific problem but it may help others with a similar scenario (working with tables makes difficult to render a clean layout in most cases.)
I ran into this issue before and this is how I solved it. It basically relies in an html nested div structure to achieve the expandability of the content without affecting the floating layout of the near elements :
<div id="wrapper" class="cf"><!--wrapper with border and CLEARED-->
<div class="sccontainer"><!--position relative-->
<div class="inner"><!--position absolute-->
<div class="content"><!--position relative-->
<!-- my content here -->
</div>
</div>
</div>
<!-- more containers etc-->
</div><!--END wrapper-->
First, we are going to apply the infamous clear-fix hack to the #wrapper container (use your preferred method):
.cf:after {
visibility:hidden;
display:block;
content:"";
clear:both;
height:0
}
* html .cf {
zoom:1
}
/* IE6 */
*:first-child+html .cf {
zoom:1
}
Then the style for the .sccontainer container :
.sccontainer {
width: 280px; /* or whatever - could be % for responsiveness */
padding-bottom:200px; /* any value to give height without using height ;) */
position: relative;
float: left;
margin: 5px 10px; /* or whatever */
overflow: hidden; /* this is important to keep all same height and big content out of sight */
z-index: 1; /* this is important too, see later */
background: white url("imagebackground.jpg") 0 0 repeat-x; /* need to explain? */
}
Then the .inner container, which actually will help to keep the layout in order if we hover the elements
.inner {
position: absolute; /* please don't move */
width: 100%; /* to fill the whole parent container */
height: 100%; /* same */
}
And the content :
.content {
position: relative;
background: white url("imagebackground.jpg") 0 0 repeat-x; /* not redundant though */
width: 100%; /* helps to fill the gaps with small content */
height: 100%; /* same, specially if using image backgrounds */
/* other styles, etc */
}
NOTE: we should apply same border-radius properties to the three containers and box-shadow to .sccontainer and .content for consistency
Now, what happens when we hover ?
.sccontainer:hover {
overflow: visible; /* show the full content */
z-index: 999; /* place me on top of the others if needed (which lower z-index, remember?) */
}
.sccontainer:hover .content {
height: auto; /* as it really is, including background image */
}
NOTES : this effect will happen regardless if the content's height is smaller than the parent container's height. You may not like the effect mostly if you are using borders and shadows (could be shown as smaller box inside the parent container) so we could add an extra class to .sccontainer like
<div class="sccontainer withhover">
and apply the hover effects only if that class exist like
.sccontainer.withhover:hover {
overflow: visible;
z-index: 999;
}
... and use a bit of jQuery to remove that class for shorter content, so it won't be affected :
jQuery(document).ready(function ($) {
$(".sccontainer").hover(function () {
var $contentHeight = $(this).find(".content").height();
if ($(this).innerHeight() > $contentHeight) {
$(this).removeClass("withhover");
}
});
});

There's a mysterious whitespace along the right of my site in firefox (on both PC and Mac, latest versions) and I can't for the life of me figure out what's causing it.
This is what it looks like -
I've been searching the CSS for ages now trying to figure out if it's some margin or padding issue but I can't find anything.
Also, if I remove the div ID 'slider3' the issue seems to disappear, yet I can't figure out how this div is causing the whitespace, since it has no CSS applied to it - it's simply a container.
Here's my site http://www.simplerweb.co.uk

You have (in FF) exactly 17px extra width that is exactly the width of the browser scrollbar.
Your starting (initial) loading black screen (that animates) leaves a glitch of 17px:
cause it's animation maintains the DOM width that equals the screen width without the right scrollbar (100% screen width).
After the page is fully loaded and the scrollbar is added to the page, it actually adds the extra 17px (to the 100%) width that were maintained by the Loading animation.
Hope I put you in the right direction.
By the way, try to add:
html {
overflow-y: scroll;
}
and - if still needed - adjust the loading element width as I mentioned before.
Add this:
body{
overflow-x: hidden;
}
Problem solved. (temporarily)
So where is the problem?
It is at your <div> with the classes plusslider slider3 plustype-slider. You are constantly setting an incorrect width to it. You have to subtract the scrollbar width.
You can also try to do this: Padding: 0px(or whatever) 17px; and margin: 0px(or whatever) -17px; now your whitespace at the sides are gone.

I want to display a horizontal stripe on image to vertical align.
this is my code
Html
<div class="demobox" id="demo-5">
<img src="Untitled-1000x288.jpg" />
<div class="details">
<h3>Play Trialer</h3>
</div>
</div>
css
#demo-5 {
position: relative;
}
.demobox {
float: left;
height: 288px;
overflow: hidden;
width: 1000px;
}
#demo-5:hover .details {
margin-left: 0;
}
#demo-5 .details {
left: 0;
margin-left: -1200px;
opacity: 0.7;
filter:alpha(opacity=70);
position: absolute;
top: 0;
}
.details {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #000000;
color: #FF0000;
height: 50px;
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.
