I was hoping you could help me find a solution to a problem I'm having after trying out Matthew James Taylor's equal height columns using pure css.
I'm trying to add a border-bottom to a column when hovered over by the user (see image: 1). The problem I'm having is that as these DIV's are nested the borders seem to stack on top of eachother (see image: 3). I'm trying to have all the borders on an even level as the effect I'm going for would have them overlap with the gray line
Furthermore, the grey horizontal line in the image would stretch to 100% width of the page and would be on an even level with the black border-bottom. When not hovering over any of the titles (hi there!, contact, twitter) I'd like the columns with content to slide up until only the titles are visible, this would be the only thing I'd like to use Javascript. Perhaps all of this isn't possible using just CSS, or maybe there's a better way of doing it?

It looks like this would be solved far more easily with display: table than the CSS trickery you are currently using.
http://jsfiddle.net/rrPKA/
#container { display: table; }
.row { display: table-row; }
.row > div {
display: table-cell;
width: 100px;
border-bottom: 1px solid lightgray;
padding-left: 10px;
}
.row > div:hover { border-bottom: 1px solid gray; }

I want to resize the space where the scrollbar moves.
I don't want it to affect how much I can scroll.
Look at the following pictures (my drawings) to better understand what I mean.
I'm using chrome so webkit is viable.
Thanks to all of your answers!
(P.S. I would love to have reduce the image size, yet I don't know how to! My apologies!).
Without nesting another element and play with its height you could simply use a huge border-bottom and place a visible border around the element using the outline property, e.g.
div {
width: 200px;
height: 300px;
outline: 1px #9bc solid;
border-bottom: 50px transparent solid;
}

You can't change the height of the scrollbar but you can redesign the scrollbar with -webkit-scrollbar like this:
::-webkit-scrollbar {
width: 5px;
height: 10px;
background: transparent;
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb {
background-color: #808080;
}
I'm new here, so please tell me if I formulated something wrongly, code or text-wise.
This is the code I'm currently using for my page. Yes, I know it's short and terrible, but I'm still learning HTML/CSS. If you run that on a page, you'll notice no hover events on the navbar buttons, and some fiddling with the logo will reveal that the actual navbar is a big bar. (width:100%?)
I was only wondering as to how I would go about creating an on hover that's only slightly there, something like this: (hovered on the left, not hovered on the right)
Hover showcase
I don't necessarily need it using my current setup or it being exact, but I'd like an explanation as to how this would be done. (the site I took it from has fancy fade on the text turning blue and a slide animation on the bar from the bottom, but I don't expect I'll be able to do that)
I was also wondering how I could have the logo be on the same bar as the other li elements, and then center it off how long logo + li elements (the whole bar) would be. (as opposing to having the li elements centered and a logo off to the left.) Also, a thick, colored bar above the navbar, but not below, like a margin, and having the navbar be a little thicker as well, as the picture above depicts fairly well.
Thank you for any assistance I can recieve!

So for the hover color you can do something like:
li:hover {
color: blue;
border-bottom: 3px solid blue;
}
To add more of the animation you might want to do:
li {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
li a:hover {
color: blue;
}
li a:after {
margin: 0 auto;
width: 0px;
height: 3px;
display: block;
content: "";
background-color: blue;
transition: width 0.5s linear;
}
li a:hover:after {
width: 100%;
}
li img {
padding: 14px 16px;
}
http://plnkr.co/edit/GrxqcRjoMa7aWjHvnBhA
basically you are creating a psuedo element :after which has an animation on its width. When you hover over an li element the psuedo element will grow to 100% of the width looking like an expanding underline.
To make the image inline with the other elements remove your position: absolute style for the #logo

Whenever I zoom in our out my content moves around rather awkwardly and breaks my page a bit. Was wondering how i could fix this issue and work to avoid this issue in the future? Images of the site can be found here!

Still new to HTML and only just started learning it properly in University but I've been immensely enjoying it and am thinking about pursuing it as a career!
The page "breaking" looks to be the result of using float left and float right elements next to each other. If their is insufficient room, your right hand panel breaks to the next line but is still floated right.
You can achieve a non responsive layout that keeps both panels next to each other and locates the right hand panel flush with the right margin if there is room, but produces horizontal scroll bars if not, you can use table layout. A demonstration without using <TABLE> tags:
CSS
#panels
{ border: thin solid green; /* to see */
min-width: 100%;
display:table;
}
#leftPanel
{ border: thin solid red; /* to see */
min-width: 40em;
display: table-cell;
}
#rightPanelContainer
{ display: table-cell;
text-align: right; /* right justify */
}
#rightPanel
{ display:inline-block; /* allow panel to be justified */
border: thin solid blue; /* to see */
min-width: 20em;
text-align: left;
}
HTML
<div id="panels">
<div id="leftPanel">
Left Panel
</div>
<div id="rightPanelContainer">
<div id="rightPanel">
Right Panel
</div>
</div>
</div>
I have a div that users input text in it. But I want to increase it's width according to it's text, until a max of 50% of the screen. My CSS code:
.messages {
max-width:50%;
min-width:150px;
background: #ffeec0;
padding:2px;
margin:3px;
-webkit-border-radius: 2px;
border-radius: 2px;
border:1px solid #ffdd7c;
}
Result:
There's a lot of space after the "555" message, I want this size only if the user inputs some text like:
So, how can I increase the div's width dinamically, depending on the text size?
There are many ways to achieve this, but IMHO the cleanest is the following.
Your problem is that the boxes are "greedy" and will try to expand to the available width.
To prevent this, you can:
Make it "float: left;"
But also "clear: left;" to prevent additional "left floating" elements to use the available space on the right.
The CSS becomes:
.messages {
max-width:50%;
min-width:150px;
background: #ffeec0;
padding:2px;
margin:3px;
border-radius: 2px;
border:1px solid #ffdd7c;
float: left;
clear: left;
}
I provided full code and additional explanation (on mouseover) on the Liveweave here: http://liveweave.com/DFCZFj
Try changing display type of the div to table.
Example Here
.messages {
display: table;
max-width: 50%;
min-width: 150px;
/* other declarations omitted due to brevity */
}
Just add display:inline;. You can also remove the min width property, otherwise if the text is smaller, you will still have that gap.
Block elements (div's default display type) will attempt to take up the maximum horizontal space of the container. Imagine an implicit width:100% whenever you see them. inline-block will create block level elements in which the next element will attempt to render horizontally adjacent (provided there is enough room). This is what you want to use (display: table will work in this solution as well, but it has its own idiosyncrasies. I avoid them.
So your solution requires three parts:
First, you need to specify that the rows will be no larger than 50% of the available area. You will do this with an outer frame:
.frame {
max-width:50%;
}
Next, the messages themselves should each be given space entire row(s) at a time. So we'll use an undecorated div tag around each message.
Finally, you will use display: inline-block for your innermost messages elements. Since they are the only child of their parent tag, you won't have to worry about elements winding around on one another. By using the inline-block, width is respected and this gives us a great place to apply the background color.
.messages {
display: inline-block;
min-width: 150px;
background: #ffeec0;
padding:2px;
margin:3px;
-webkit-border-radius: 2px;
border-radius: 2px;
border:1px solid #ffdd7c;
}
Just as a reference, one would expect your markup will look like the following:
<div class="frame">
<div><div class="messages">2014</div></div>
<div><div class="messages">2014</div></div>
<div><div class="messages">
2014-09-20 17:46:41 minhavidaemquotes:555
</div></div>
<div><div class="messages">
2014-09-20 17:46:41 minhavidaemquotes:555 this is some extra
text
</div></div>
</div>
I think you'll find this gives you the intended effect. By the way, this is a general solution -- but if you choose a min-width that is larger than 50%, you will ensure that two siblings of type inline-block will be too wide for a line. If you do this, then you can dispense with the extra div in the markup.
I'm a web designer and new in stackoverflow, I have this issue with positioning drop-down menu links (more specifically aligning them to the left of the menu) because there is a space between the menu left border and the beginning of the links (check the live demo link below). I've tried text-align, float, margin, padding, and position properties but none of them seem to solve this. I think that the menu css might be conflicting with other css code of the page, but I just can't seem to find it.
You can check the source code from a live demo of the page here.
Ok, based on how your code is structured, this is how I would modify your css to do what I think it is you're trying to do - I'll ** the css changes I've made:
.dropdown dd {
position: absolute;
overflow: hidden;
width: 200px;
display: none;
background: #f8f8f8;
z-index: 200;
opacity: 0;
**border-right: 1px solid #004e8e;**
}
.dropdown ul {
**overflow: hidden;**
width: 204px;
border: 1px solid #004e8e;
list-style: none;
}
.dropdown li {
**display: block;**
**position: relative;**
**left: -40px;**
}
This should get rid of the extra space on the left as well as put that blue border around the drop-down that I believe you were also trying to create.
