I'm trying to create a fixed layout, with the sidebar's background extend to the far right. I drew a sketch to illustrate the image:
how would I go about extending the sidebar background to extend till the end of the right screen, on any window size? I tried with:
#sidebar {
z-index: 1000;
overflow: hidden;
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
background: url(../img/sidebar-base.png) no-repeat 0 -8px;
min-height: 200px;
&::after {
content: '';
z-index: 10;
display: block;
height: 100px;
overflow: hidden;
width: 100%;
background: url(../img/sidebar-rx.png) repeat-x 0 -9px;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
}
}
but a scroll would appear horizontally, and if I apply overflow:hidden on the body I wouldn't be able to scroll to the bottom. Thank you!
EDIT: I did try to find my luck with javascript but there's still a little scroll:
$(function(){
$sidebar = $('#sidebar');
$sidebar.css({width: window.innerWidth - ($sidebar.offset().left)})
});
If your problem lies only in the scrolling, you can easily fix this with this line
overflow-x: hidden;
and applying it to the background's parent or the body element altogether.
Is there anyone following here or not? anyway, I think you should static position and hidden overflow like below:
#sidebar {
z-index: 1000;
overflow: hidden;
position: static;
width: 100%;
height:100%;
right:0;
top:0;
margin:0;}
Also to hide the scrolls, you should hide your body overflow too.
Hope to be right and helpful...
Set body to 100%
body {
height: 100%;
}
Then set the sidebar height to "height: auto;". That will make it extend to the height of the viewport. From there, add fixed positioning like you said.
You could do:
overflow-y:hidden
That should get rid of the scroll bar across the bottom.
I would also then use a lot of right hand padding in the sidebar to extend it out.
Try setting the sidebar width to 30% and the content to 70%.
What you should do is create a wrapper div.
<div class="sidebar-parent">
<div class="sidebar"><!-- Stuff Here --></div>
</div>
Your document should look like this when finished:
<html>
<head>
<title>Experiment</title>
<style type="text/css">
.content {float: left; width: 49%; height: 500px; border: 1px solid #000;}
.sidebar-parent {float: left; width: 50%; background-color: green;}
.sidebar {width: 500px; height: 500px; border: 1px solid #000;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="content">blah blah blah</div>
<div class="sidebar-parent">
<div class="sidebar"><!-- Stuff Here -->blah blah blah</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
The main thing to remember is the container div "sidebar-parent" is what's getting the width and containing the background.
To center them you'll need width: 50%; parent containers for both content and sidebar. You make those float:left; to fill the screen and then the content child container float: right; and the sidebar child container float: left; within their parent containers.
Summary: 2 50% width containers each containing 1 child container. Stack the parents together with a left float and then position the fixed width child containers within their parents.
That will center them and now you'll have the ability to have extended backgrounds.

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 have a canvas in my page, and i want it to fill the page until it reaches the bottom of the page.
I have the canvas' width set to 100%, but i cannot set the height to 100% as it extends too far.
The position of the div is not 0,0 of the browser window there are other things above it, so i end up with a scroll bar because 100% height extends well below the bottom of my browser's output.
So i was wondering how can i extend the element's height to reach the bottom of the page from its current position on the web page?
<style>
.canvas{
position:absolute;
width:100%;
height:100%;
}
<style>
<div class="logo">Stuff here</div>
<div class="output">
<canvas class="canvas"></canvas>
</div>
Do i need to use JavaScript or is there a CSS method to doing this?
If you know the height of the content above the canvas, you can use top and bottom properties to take up the rest of the space:
JS Fiddle
.logo {
height: 40px;
}
.output {
position: absolute;
top: 40px; // height of above content
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
padding: 0;
}
.canvas {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
And if you don't know the height of the above content, you can calculate it:
JQuery Example: JS Fiddle
var height = $('header').height();
$('.output').css('top', height);
this technique is also great when making resizable popups with fixed height headers and footers, but fluid height content
https://jsfiddle.net/ca5tda6e/
set the header (.logo) to a fixed height
.logo{
height: 100px;
background-color: lightGray;
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
}
then position the content (.output) absolute, with a padding-top: 100px
.output{
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
box-sizing: border-box; /* so that padding is included in width/height */
padding-top: 100px; /* padding-top should be equal to .logo height */
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
overflow: hidden; /* there was like a pixel of something i couldnt get rid of, could have been white space */
}
I've had this problem before, in CSS, create this rule....
html, body {
margin: 0;
}
I have a problem with sticky footer which has absolute position,
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="content">
<p>Content</p>
</div>
<div class="footer">
Footer
</div>
</div>
body {
height: 100%;
min-height: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
width: 100%
}
.wrapper {
position: absolute;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
min-height: 100%;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
overflow: auto;
background: blue;
}
.footer {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
height: 100px;
width: 100%;
background: red;
}
When I do scroll down my footer also scrolled, when I remove height:100% footer works fine but I need height:100% for my scroll bar for wrapper because I disabled it in body (I need do it). I want to retain height:100% for body and .wrapper but that footer was always at bottom. How can I do it using css ?
i got the same issue, use height: 100vh; i hope works for you!
If you need your footer to always be at the bottom look at this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/2n9okg1b/3/
In the fiddle I amd using poition: fixed; in the footer CSS. Fixing the position tells the browser to always keep the elements where you defined them to be.
Update
I have updated the fiddle link. http://jsfiddle.net/2n9okg1b/3/
With this update I detect with jQuery if the footer is below the window. If the footer is below the window I set the footer position to fixed. If the footer is not below the window I set the footer's position to relative. This allows the footer to always be at the bottom of the content or at the bottom of the window.
There're 2 divs - top and bottom.
The bottom should serve as a 'buttons pane', so visible and 'pinned' to bottom border at all times. root div is a Kendo UI Window div (see jsbin fiddle)
The problem is that the scrollbar is not being shown ONLY for the top div, but for 'buttons pane' as well. In the given jsbin resize down the window vertically, so the scrollbar appears:
http://jsbin.com/UrasoKi/3/edit
<style scoped>
#top{
min-height: 500px;
width: 100%;
background-color: blue
}
#bottom{
height: 50px;
width: 100%;
background-color: green;
position: absolute;
bottom: 0px;
/*kendo specific margin indentation, ignore*/
margin: 0 0 0 -9px;
}
</style>
<div id="w">
<div id="top">TOP PANE</div>
<div id="bottom">BOTTOM PANE</div>
</div>
I would like to achieve clear bottom div positioning with css. Scrollbar should appear for TOP panel ONLY.
Elements MUST BE positioned INSIDE <div id='w'/> in fiddle (because of telerik kendo window resize handles) AND BE RESIZABLE, so any extra volume would be given to the top pane. But extra divs could be added into it (into div id="w")
I've been trying to play around for hours, something is missing.
I would tweak as follows to provide the sort of functionality you want:
<body>
<style scoped>
#top{
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
#bottom{
height: 50px;
width: 100%;
background-color: green;
position: absolute;
bottom: 0px;
/*kendo specific margin indentation, ignore*/
margin: 0 0 0 -9px;
}
#inner {
overflow-y:scroll;
height: 100%;
background-color: blue
}
</style>
<div id="w">
<div id="top"><div id="inner">TOP PANE</div></div> <div id="bottom">BOTTOM PANE</div>
</div>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#w').kendoWindow({
width: '450px'
});
$('.k-window-content').css({'overflow':'hidden', scrollable: false })
});
</script>
</body>
The tweaks include fixing the size of the Kendo Window and adding an inner div with fixed height and overflow-y scrolling for the top panel.
I hope this helps...
The attribute min-height: 500px; is causing the window to show a scrollbar. You would want to put the two divs in another div with a fixed min-height and then give the two divs a fixed min-height
Edit:
Edited your fiddle, see if that is what you need.

I am trying to make a light box style Jquery function. Unfortunately, the .container div that contains the image div (.lightboxbackground) I want to make pop out and enlarge has position:absolute and z-index: 10 so my pop up box and background fader only take up the width and height of that parent (.container) div eg:
Would anyone know a way around this so that my .lightboxbackground and .lightbox divs can cover the whole screen?
<div class='container'>
<div class='lightboxbackground'>
<div class='lightbox'>
<img src='image.jpg'/>
</div>
</div>
</div>
.container {
position: absolute;
z-index:10;
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
}
.lightboxbackground {
background-color:#000;
opacity: 0.9;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
position:absolute;
z-index: 11;
}
.lightbox {
width: 500px;
height: 500px;
position:absolute;
z-index: 12;
}
if you want to cover the whole screen:
.lightboxbackground {
background-color:#000;
opacity: 0.9;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
position:fixed;
left:0;
top:0;
z-index: 11; //I would advise to change this to z-index:1000 (Note: .lightbox must also adjust to this)
}
fid: http://jsfiddle.net/uH4MF/1/
.container is their "frame of reference", so to speak. 100% width and height of the descendants of .container means 200px for them.
Also, there is a way to attain 100% height. One of them is to to explicitly define height on html and body so you can have this reference.
And so:
Place .container as a child of body
<body>
<div class="container">...
Remove .container's width and height
Add the following style:
html, body, .container {height:100%};
