CSS height 100% percent not working [duplicate] - javascript

This question already has answers here:
Why doesn't height: 100% work to expand divs to the screen height?
(12 answers)
Closed 8 years ago.
I have a div with height: 100%; but it's not working. When I declare a fixed height (for example height: 600px;) it is working, but I would like a responsive design.
html:
<blink><div class="row-fluid split-pane fixed-left" style="position: relative; height: 78%;">
<div class="split-pane-component" style="position: relative; width: 50em;">
<div style="">
<ul class="nav nav-tabs">
<li class="active">Html</li>
<li>Helpers</li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content">
<div class="tab-pane active" id="html" style="height: 100%;">
<textarea id="htmlArea" style="height: 100%;">{{:html}}</textarea>
</div>
<div class="tab-pane" id="helpers" style="height: 100%;">
<textarea id="helpersArea">{{:helpers}}</textarea>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="split-pane-divider" id="my-divider" style="left: 50em; width: 5px;"></div>
<div class="split-pane-component" style="left: 50em; margin-left: 5px;">
<div style="">
<ul class="nav nav-tabs">
<li>
<a href="#" class="active">Preview
<img width="22px" height="16px" class="preview-loader" src="img/spinner-green2.gif" style="display: none" />
</a>
</li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content">
<div class="tab-pane active" style="height: 100%;">
<iframe name="previewFrame" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="true" style="width: 100%; height: 100%;"></iframe>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</blink>

You probably need to declare the code below for height:100% to work for your divs
html, body {margin:0;padding:0;height:100%;}
fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/5KYC3/

You aren't specifying the "height" of your html. When you're assigning a percentage in an element (i.e. divs) the css compiler needs to know the size of the parent element. If you don't assign that, you should see divs without height.
The most common solution is to set the following property in css:
html{
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
You are saying to the html tag (html is the parent of all the html elements) "Take all the height in the HTML document"
I hope I helped you. Cheers

I would say you have two options:
to get all parent divs styled with 100% height (including body and html)
to use absolute positioning for one of the parent divs (for example #content) and then all child divs set to height 100%

Set the containing element/div to a height. Otherwise your asking the browser to set the height to 100% of an unknown value and it can't.
More info here: http://webdesign.about.com/od/csstutorials/f/set-css-height-100-percent.htm

I believe you need to make sure that all the container div tags above the 100% height div also has 100% height set on them including the body tag and html.

For code mirror divs refer to the manual, these sections might be useful to you:
http://codemirror.net/demo/fullscreen.html
var editor = CodeMirror.fromTextArea(document.getElementById("code"), {
lineNumbers: true,
theme: "night",
extraKeys: {
"F11": function(cm) {
cm.setOption("fullScreen", !cm.getOption("fullScreen"));
},
"Esc": function(cm) {
if (cm.getOption("fullScreen")) cm.setOption("fullScreen", false);
}
}
});
And also take a look at:
http://codemirror.net/demo/resize.html
Also a comment:
Inline styling is horrible you should avoid this at all costs, not only will it confuse you, it's poor practice.

Night's answer is correct
html, body {margin:0;padding:0;height:100%;}
Also check that your div or element is NOT inside another one (with height less than 100%)
Hope this helps someone else.

How to set a column and container a max height so the image fits the whole page in bootstrap 4?

I have two columns in a row with bootstrap 4. I want to use the whole screen to show the image. This is my code:
<div class="container-fluid" style="padding-left:0px;">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6 ">
<img class="img-fluid" src="jumbo_background.jpg" />
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="contact-wrapper">
<p>Test</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Everything is working good and responsive but this is the result I get from this code:
The preferred result I want is this:
The picture I use the dimension are 6000 X 4000
The solutions I have tried:
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
I have inspected the browser with the Google dev tool and I can see the the body is 100% but still not the result I want.
I have used h-100 from bootstrap and still get the same result.
I have used height: 100vh; but on smaller devices it's not responsive
I have checked this link:
Height not 100% on Container Fluid even though html and body are
Still don't get the result I want.
How can I give the image a full height in bootstrap 4?
UPDATE:
After nikolay solution on resolution: 1156 x 1013
You seem to want to use the image as a background. So my suggestion would be to do just that, as the cross-browser support is better (I'm not saying it can't be done with <img> alone, only that it's easier with background-image). Do note I'm leaving the <img> tag in for two reasons:
SEO indexing (if you need it)
sizing the column properly on mobile devices.
However, the <img> is not rendered. You're always looking at the background image of the <div>.
Here's a solution which grabs the src attribute of the first <img> element in each .column-image and uses it as <div>s backgroundImage. For it to work, make sure the <div> has the image-column class:
$(function() {
$('.image-column').each(function() {
const src = $('img', this).eq(0).attr('src');
if (src) {
$(this).css({ backgroundImage: `url(${src})` })
}
})
});
.image-column {
min-height: 100vh;
background: transparent no-repeat center /cover;
}
.image-column .img-responsive {
visibility: hidden;
}
#media(max-width: 767px) {
.image-column {
min-height: 0;
}
.image-column .img-responsive {
width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
}
<link href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.4.1/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.4.1.slim.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/popper.js#1.16.0/dist/umd/popper.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.4.1/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6 image-column">
<img src="https://i.picsum.photos/id/237/600/400.jpg" class="img-responsive">
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="contact-wrapper">
<p>Test</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Note: even though it's used as both src of the <img> and background-image of the <div>, the resource (image) is only loaded once.
Here's a solution:
html, body,
.container-fluid .row,
.container-fluid .row .col-md-6,
.container-fluid .row .col-md-6 img {
height: 100vh !important;
}
Add example for the responsive mobile view as you made above, so I can write a solution.

jQuery panzoom scale all elements

I'm using jQuery panzoom to zoom an image and some div elements. This works generally but the elements positioned on top of the image don't stay in their original locations. Is there anyway to keep the div elements where they were whilst being scaled?
JSFiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/828wu2dy/
HTML:
<section id="inverted-contain">
<div class="panzoom-elements">
<div class="item item1">ITEM 1</div>
<div class="item item2">ITEM 2</div>
<div class="panzoom">
<img src="http://www.hdwallpapers.in/walls/enchanted_forest-wide.jpg">
</div>
</div>
<div class="buttons">
<button class="zoom-in">Zoom In</button>
<button class="zoom-out">Zoom Out</button>
<input type="range" class="zoom-range">
<button class="reset">Reset</button>
</div>
</section>
JS:
(function() {
var $section = $('#inverted-contain');
$section.find('.panzoom').panzoom({
$zoomIn: $section.find(".zoom-in"),
$zoomOut: $section.find(".zoom-out"),
$zoomRange: $section.find(".zoom-range"),
$reset: $section.find(".reset"),
$set: $section.find('.panzoom-elements > div'),
startTransform: 'scale(0)',
increment: 0.1,
minScale: 1,
maxScale: 2,
contain: 'invert'
}).panzoom('zoom');
})();
CSS:
.panzoom-elements {
width: 50%;
height: 400px;
}
.item {
position: absolute;
z-index: 10;
}
.item.item1 {
color: white;
background: black;
width:50px;
height:50px;
top: 300px;
left: 100px;
}
.item.item2 {
color: white;
background: black;
width:50px;
height:50px;
top: 200px;
left: 150px;
}
The other problem is that it also doesn't drag horizontally.
I've tried everything I can think of.
Part 1:
To fix your 'item' problem - try putting 'item' elements on one level with 'img' - I mean put them inside div class='panzoom'.
Works for me. ^ ^
<section id="inverted-contain">
<div class="panzoom-elements">
<div class="panzoom">
<div class="item item1">ITEM 1</div>
<div class="item item2">ITEM 2</div>
<img src="http://www.hdwallpapers.in/walls/enchanted_forest-wide.jpg">
</div>
</div>
<div class="buttons">
<button class="zoom-in">Zoom In</button>
<button class="zoom-out">Zoom Out</button>
<input type="range" class="zoom-range">
<button class="reset">Reset</button>
</div>
</section>
The method of thought that led me to this answer: while learning panzoom documentation for API, and examining your fiddle, I found that 'img' or anything that could be seen as direct selector to it (I mean like $('.panzoom').child().first() is nowhere mentioned in your script. That means that most probably img is zooming in/out not by itself. What I thought next - it seem that it's parent is changing. That would mean that you need to put your items inside of that changing space - it is the most logical way to handle it... I tried to test that idea - and it worked.
Part 2:
The other problem is that it also doesn't drag horizontally.
Add this to your CSS
.panzoom{ width: 1920px;}
This is the size of the image. Works for me.
Perhaps you also could add to .panzoom height of image. It is not required in your case where image is horisontal but it could matter when image is vertical.

How to set a 'div' height same with his neighbor?

I am using bootstrap as my CSS framework. Now I have some dynamic content in the left side div, and some static content in the right div. I want to the height of right side div auto change base on the height of left side div. Is that possible?
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span5 offset1">
<div class="well">
Dynamic Content
</div>
</div>
<div class="span5">
<div class="well" style="height: 330px; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: scroll;">
Static Content
</div>
</div>
</div>
You could do this
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="dynamic">
Dynamic Line <br />
Dynamic Line <br />
Dynamic Line <br />
Dynamic Line <br />
Dynamic Line <br />
Dynamic Line <br />
Dynamic Line <br />
Dynamic Line <br />
</div>
<div class="static">
Static<br />
Static<br />
</div>
</div>
CSS
.wrapper {
position: relative;
width: 400px;
overflow: auto;
}
.dynamic {
position: relative;
background-color: yellow;
width: 200px;
}
.static {
position: absolute;
background-color: orange;
width: 200px;
float: left;
left: 200px;
top: 0px;
bottom: 0px;
right: 0px;
}
I think jQuery is the best solution to achieve this. Check out my fiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/PHjtJ/
$(document).ready(function() {
var dynamic = $('.dynamic');
var static = $('.static');
static.height(dynamic.height());
});
the solution depends on the behavior you want in the case where the static column is larger than the dynamic one. [I actually think you want the second scenario.]
Notice: both case are pure CSS, and without specifying any height whatsoever.
also, not specifying a margin of any sort, so you can change the width of the column at your will, without the need to calculate the margin/position again and again..
if you want the dynamic column to enlarge, and to be as the static height:
so you actually want the columns to always be a the same height.
and that can be easily achieved with CSS table layout styling.
in that case: See this Fiddle (the script is only for adding dynamic content, this is a pure CSS SOLUTION)
if you want the dynamic column to stretch only to its content height, and the static one to have the same height + a scroller.
in that case: see this Fiddle (again: the script is only for adding dynamic content, this is a pure CSS SOLUTION)
in both cases, the static column grows if the dynamic one become longer.
Use Javascript/jQuery to find which box has the biggest height. Then set the same height to all the divs.
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
var description = jQuery("div.description");
var big =0;
description.each(function(index, el) {
if(jQuery(el).height() > big)
big =jQuery(el).height(); //find the largest height
});
description.each(function(index, el) {
jQuery(el).css("min-height", big+"px"); //assign largest height to all the divs
});
});
</script>

alternative of scrollLeft()

G'day!
I have a page which has Horizontally Scroll feature going on there.
I have a side bar and a content box
In side bar I have 5 links, say LINK1 - LINK5
In the content box, I have 3500px of width which contains 5 sections of divs of 700px each.
So the page initially loads in the first 700px div. So if I click on Link 3, it will smoothly scrolling to 3rd div section.
However, I would like to load the page in the 2nd div.
I was able to do this using scrollLeft()
<script>$("div.content1").scrollLeft(700);</script>
But the horizontal scrolling will be messed up. The second div will act as first div, which means when I click LINK1, it won't be scrolled back.
Help?
*I think this code is needed
<script>
function goto(id, t){
//animate to the div id
$(".contentbox-wrapper").stop().animate({"left": -($(id).position().left)}, 1200);
}
</script>
This is sample of HTML code
<div id="sidebar1">
<span class="upper">Foods</span><br />
<span class="lower">Rice, Noodles & Pasta</span><br />
<span class="lower">Snacks & Tidbits</span><br />
<span class="lower">Canned & Ready to Eat</span><br />
<span class="lower">Breakfast Cereal</span><br />
<br />
This is sample of my content box
<div class="content1">
<div class="contentbox-wrapper">
<div id="rice" class="contentbox" align="center">
<h2>
Rice, Noodles & Pasta
</h2>
<section id="product">
<ul class="clear">
<li data-id="1">
<div href="#">
<img src="images/products/f1/_DSC4640.jpg" width="200" height="200" />
<h3>Maggi Curry Flavour</h3>
<p>(5 + 1) x 79 G</p>
<h2>Price:$2.40</h2>
</div>
</li>
I've created an example based a little on your markup. I hope, that it is, what you're looking for. I also made some minor changes on your JavaScript. See the explanation below.
HTML
<nav>
<a>Item 1</a>
<a>Item 2</a>
</nav>
<div class="contentbox-wrapper">
<div>
<h2>Item 1</h2>
</div>
<div>
<h2>Item 2</h2>
</div>
</div>
If you can apply a markup like this, where the index of each link corresponds with the index of each content container, then you can get rid of all the ids that you need in the JavaScript part.
CSS
div.contentbox-wrapper {
position: relative;
width: 400px;
height: 200px;
overflow: hidden;
overflow-x: scroll;
font-size: 0;
line-height: 0;
white-space: nowrap;
}
div.contentbox-wrapper > div {
display: inline-block;
width: 400px;
height: 200px;
text-align: center;
}
div.contentbox-wrapper > div:last-child {
margin-right: 0;
}
JavaScript
var container = $('div.contentbox-wrapper');
var boxes = container.children();
$('nav > a').click(function() {
container.stop().animate({
scrollLeft: boxes.eq($(this).index()).get(0).offsetLeft
}, 350);
});
Try to store selectors that you use multiple times in variables. The advantage is, that you don't need to re-query them again. This JavaScript does nothing else, then getting the offset of the box that corresponds with the clicked link, using .index() and .eq(). This value is then used in the .animate()-function to scroll to this position.

A few notes
If you have an ampersand within normal content like "Rice, Noodles & Pasta" you must escape it like: &.
Don't use align="center". It is deprecated since HTML4. Use CSS for this purpose.

Having a html element stay in the same position without using position: fixed

To show what I want to do, here is a url. http://octopuscreative.com .
I want something that when I scroll down the height, the cyan div disappears like the website above.
I currently have the scrolling working in my code, however, I cannot see the rest of my HTML that is below my #main div. I don't know if this has anything to do with my new #slideshow div (with a fixed position).
I thought since the #slideshow div had its height reduced to 0, I would be able to see the HTML underneath the #main div, but all I see below is white.
var header = $('#slideshow'),
headerH = header.height();
$(window).scroll(function() {
if (header.height() >= 0) {
header.css({
height: -($(this).scrollTop() - headerH), position: 'absolute'
});
}
else if (header.height() < 0 ) {
header.css('height', 0);
header.css('position', 'absolute');
}
});

I'm the lead dev at Octopus. Here's the bare minimum amount of code to make something like that header effect work (it does use fixed position).
HTML
<div id="hero">
<h2>I am the hero</h2>
</div>
<div id="main-content">
<h3>I am the main content</h3>
</div>
CSS
* {
margin: 0;
}
div#hero {
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
background: #3D6AA2;
height: 300px;
}
div#main-content {
height: 1500px;
background: #fff;
margin-top: 300px;
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
}
I also threw together a jsFiddle that demonstrates it, along with the bit of parallax stuff the site does: http://jsfiddle.net/paulstraw/FW4FF/
Hope that helps!
position: fixed; positions the element based on viewable screen coordinates, so when you scroll, the position will update to reflect the 'new' top/left boundaries. position: absolute; is more like what you are describing, it will keep the element in the same place, regardless of the content around it, or the browser's scroll position. However, this will take the element out of the 'flow' of the page, and other elements will act like it is not there (and might overlap it). In which case, you will likely have more luck just floating your header left: float: left;.
If you do this, you will probably need to clear the floats in your main div by adding the css style: clear: both;. This will push the main div below any floated content above.
