CSS - Stretching Div Vertically
Hey everyone, my first time exploring page layouts using CSS and I'm having a few problems.
I have a simple page with separate Header, Navigation and Content divs stacked on top of each other inside of a wrapper div (used to align the three to the center), with another div for the Footer placed below everything else. Here's how it looks now: Code: <html> <head> <title>CSS Divisions</title> <style type="text/css"> #Wrapper { width:800px; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto; text-align:left; } #Header { width:800px; height:120px; background:#FC6;} #PNav { width:800px; height:40px; float:left; background:#CCC; } #Content { width:800px; height:400px; float:left; overflow:hidden; background:#FFC; } #Footer { width:100%; height:80px; float:left; text-align:center; background-color:#FC6; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="Wrapper"> <div id="Header">Header</div> <div id="PNav">Navigation</div> <div id="Content">Content</div> </div> <div id="Footer">Footer</div> </body> </html>
Ideally what I want is for the page to look exactly how it is, but with the footer stretching from the bottom of the Content div, down to the bottom of the wherever the user's browser has loaded; basically to fill the vertical remainder of the screen. I've tried setting the footer height to 100%, but that forces the page to extend vertically, and I fumbled around with about a dozen other techniques not really knowing what I was doing, and I've had no luck so far. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Similar TutorialsI read a thread on div streching but I didn't totally understand what was going on in that particular case so I thought I create a new thread and throw my code up as well. I'm trying to have a minimum height with a footer anchored at the bottom of the div (contained within it for the bg image to carry through behind the footer). But I can't seem to get all the pieces to work together. The problem I'm dealing with now is that the div won't stretch and the footer will be pushed down way too far. Here is what's happening. So how do I get the div to keep a minimum height of 706px or like 80% and then how do I get it to auotmatically stretch with the content and keep the footer anchored at the bottom of the stretched div? Here's the code: Code:

I have two divs floated inside another div, but the outside div isn't stretching to accommodate the inner divs. Why not? The TMPL tags are used by the HTML::Template perl module. html Code: Original - html Code <div class='photo-navigate'> <div style='width: <TMPL_VAR NAME=THUMBNAIL_WIDTH>; float: left;'> <TMPL_IF NAME=PREVIOUS_EXISTS><a href='<TMPL_VAR NAME=PREVIOUS_LINK>'><img src='<TMPL_VAR NAME=PREVIOUS_IMG>' border=0 /></a></TMPL_IF> </div> <div style='width: <TMPL_VAR NAME=THUMBNAIL_WIDTH>; float: left;'> <TMPL_IF NAME=NEXT_EXISTS><a href='<TMPL_VAR NAME=NEXT_LINK>'><img src='<TMPL_VAR NAME=NEXT_IMG>' border=0 /></a></TMPL_IF> </div> </div> <div class='photo-navigate'> <div style='width: <TMPL_VAR NAME=THUMBNAIL_WIDTH>; float: left;'> <TMPL_IF NAME=PREVIOUS_EXISTS><a href='<TMPL_VAR NAME=PREVIOUS_LINK>'><img src='<TMPL_VAR NAME=PREVIOUS_IMG>' border=0 /></a></TMPL_IF> </div> <div style='width: <TMPL_VAR NAME=THUMBNAIL_WIDTH>; float: left;'> <TMPL_IF NAME=NEXT_EXISTS><a href='<TMPL_VAR NAME=NEXT_LINK>'><img src='<TMPL_VAR NAME=NEXT_IMG>' border=0 /></a></TMPL_IF> </div> </div> css Code: Original - css Code div.photo-navigate { border: 1px solid black; background-color: #eeeeee; }

I know I've seen lots of questions on div sizing and positioning, but I apparently haven't been able to follow them. So I wrote out some very basic containers, and am looking for some very basic answers, even if they're only "no, it won't work." So let's say I have a layout like this: PHP Code: <div style="height: 100%; width: 100%; border: 2px red dashed; text-align: center;"> <!-- outside div --> <div style="height: 200px; width: 300px; border: 2px blue solid; text-align: left; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; "> <!-- centered div --> <div style="height: 100px; width: 100px; border: 2px green dashed; text-align: left; float: left;"> <!-- floated div 1 --> hello world 1 <!-- /floated div 1 --> </div> <div style="height: 100px; width: auto; border: 2px orange dashed; text-align: left; float: left;"> <!-- floated div 2 --> hello world 2 <!-- /floated div 2 --> </div> <div style="font-size: 0px; height: 0px; width: 0px; clear: both;"> <!-- clear div / --> </div> <!-- /centered div --> </div> <!-- /outside div --> </div> What I want to happen is for the orange div (floated div 2) to fill the rest of the width of the surrounding blue div (centered div). I know with this simple example I can simply set the pixel width, but I want to eventually make it more dynamic, allowing for variable sizes, like if I set the blue div to be a percentage instead of a fixed width. Any ideas? (Even links to appropriate threads are appreciated!) Thanks! (edit: had to update "centered div" to be firefox compatible) Hello, I have a div element within a series of nested tables. the width of the cell that the div element is in is set to "45%". My div element has a CSS style of "overflow:auto;" meaning I want scrollbars to appear if the contents of the div are larger than the alotted space. For some reason, the scrollbars appear, however, My div element stretches and pushes other elements off of the screen. Is anyone aware of any bugs or something that could cause this? The thing that is really strange is that I only have this problem when the table within the DIV contains elements that have the nowrap attribute set to true. Thanks, Crystal Hey I'm new at this forum, and also new with tableless layouts. I wanted 2 small divs at the left and right side of the main content div. Everything went ok, till I putted some content in. None of the divs expanded in Firefox and in IE just the maindiv streched. Layout: www.dennisenderink.nl/test2 Stylesheet: www.dennisenderink.nl/test2/stylesheet.css Can you help me out please? Ok, iv had this problem alot when making sites, however this time it seems to be more complicated. http://area51.chicagowars.com/templates/modern_rouge/index.php is a site im working on. However the background in <div class="outer"> wont stretch. Iv used clearfix CSS such as Code: div.inner:after {
clear: both;
display: block;
content: ".";
height: 0;
visibility: hidden;
}
/* hide from IE-mac \*/
* html .inner {
height: 1%;
}
div.inner {
display: block;
}
/* end hide */
and the simpler Code: div.clearfix
{
height: 0;
clear: both;
}
<div class="clearfix"> </div>
You'll be able to see these in the script. Iv done this kind of thing before (http://www.rap-wars.com) where i had tyhe same problem, but this time its not workin, i think its the breadcrumbs thats complicating things! Does anyone have the solution? http://www.gamecitadel.com/reviews/31 In firefox: All content in the middle between the header and footer is in a div called mainContent Code:
#mainContent {
background-color: #323333;
background-image: url(images/index/contentBG.gif);
width: 779px;
height: 700px;
margin-top: 7px;
}
when the height is set, as is above, the mainContent div will only go to that height, and the content within it will continue down past(outside) of the div. if the height is removed, the mainContent div doesnt show at all. shouldnt the content inside the mainContent div determine its height? What have I forgotten to add? In IE: Works perfect Here's a question I can't seem to fix. I have nested DIVs and when the nested DIVs receives text/content it will stretch, but the parent DIV of that DIV won't stretch with it. Causing the nested DIV to stretch beyond the border of the parent DIV. I've temporarily(sp) tried to fix the problem by putting tables in it, but any help with this would be appreciated. Thank you. ^_^ Another question with this menu: Austin360 Does anyone know how they made the widths of the submenu items stretch/adjust wider for more text, while the top level stays the same? I have a couple of dropdown templates, but the submenus are only as wide as the top level list items. (If their text is wider, the top level item is stretched too -- not what I want) Thanks in advance! Hopefully this is an easy question, how is this done to fill a frame, without repeating, just to stretch it out and fill up a frame? When I shrink my browser to the left my div slides to the left out of view. Is there a way to create a cut off point so my div can neatly meet the edge of the browser and stay put when minimizing the browser to the left? Ok so www.gameyin.com/index.php You will see a dotted border flowing up the left nav bar, and below advertisements (Yes I know I'm using tables. I will eventually move them onto a roll over menu.) I have it set up so it should only be dotted border for the ads. But it is going around everything. Weird. Here is.. CSS for it. Code: .advertisement {
font-weight: bold;
color: #000000;
border: 1px dotted;
width: 100%;
}
.advertisement p {
font-weight: bold;
color: #000000;
clear: both;
text-align: center;
}
HTML for it Code: <div class="advertisement">
<p>Have A Look At Some Of Our Sponsors</p>

<img src="images/ad2.gif" alt="Ads" />

You will see more if you go to site and see what I mean. Dunno if I got all the HTMl for it and CSS. I wrote it a while ago with the problem. Just never got around to trying and fix it . I know this has been done to death but all the fixes I looked at on here didn't seem to help me... Essentially I'm trying to create a three-column layout plus a header and footer for an email. The left and right columns essentially act as thick borders and the middle column is for content. As such I want the left/right columns to stretch to the height of the middle column. Someone suggested that I wrap them in a div with the height set to 100% so that they expand to fill that space, but it hasn't worked. As such the content breaks the layout and the borders don't continue down with the rest of the content. Here's the code (minus header + footer divs): Code: <div name="column" id="column" style="width:600px; height:100%;"> <div style="padding:0px; margin:0px;"> <div name="leftbar" id="leftbar" style="float:left; width:20px; height:100%; background-color:#69696b; border-left:1px solid #252429; border-right:1px solid #bcbcbe;"></div> <div name="contentbox" id="contentbox" style="text-align:left; width:553px; float:left;"> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

Ideally I'd have turned those borders into background-images and set them to repeat-y but HTML emails don't like background images. Any ideas? I have just a few more CSS bugs to iron out and I can't seem to figure this one out. Here's a link: http://www.plml.org/multitool/index.php In IE8/Firefox it works just as it should: the #solution_area div (contains the multiplication problems) doesn't stretch to its max width. In IE7 the #solution_area div stretches. I've tried taking out all of the contents of the .tab_content divs (just inside the #solution_area div) except for some gibberish text and it works fine. As soon as I put a single thing in, it stretches. What's going on? Hi guys, I'm roughing out a template and wondered if you could please help me with something: In IE the background graphic body-stretch.jpg does not stretch as it does in Firefox, I read around and thought this may be something to do with the peekaboo hack but I couldn't get any of the fixes to work. Any ideas? Also, you will see I have a footer graphic that stretches all the way across the bottom of the page, right now it is outside my "container" div because when placed inside it is restricted to the width of the container and not to the edges of the page. If I change the width of the container to suit it everything gets left aligned. Placing the footer div outside the container means the textual content crosses over it (see page in firefox to see what I mean). Pulling my hair out! Any pointers would be greatly appreciated Code:

Is there a way I can have the checkbox to the right of the heading without stretching out the actual heading? It works fine when it is floated to the left http://www.iankovi.com/html_.html http://www.iankovi.com/css_.css hello all, On my website i allow my users to use a an editor such as tinyMCE to do a write up and I store the html in my database to display later. the issue i have is how can i make sure that in the DIV where i'm displaying these writeups from the user doesn't stretch out. for example if a user puts in the code "<font size=999>TEST</font>" in their article that they are posting to my site, i don't my whole site to go out of wack due to the large font size. i want it to stay the same and just wrap the text to the next line. Thanks Hello, I currently have this: http://i53.tinypic.com/ad2mvq.png My CSS style sheet is like so: Code:
#content {
right:2.25em;
margin-top:.2em;
margin-left: 2.25em;
margin-right:2.25em;
voice-family: "\"}\"";
voice-family: inherit;
margin-left:2.25em;
margin-right:2.25em;
padding:1em .5em 2em .5em;
background:#FFFFFF;
font-size:.9em;
}
#nav {
float:right;
margin:0 4em 0 1em;
padding:.7em;
width:13em;
background:#F6F0E0;
border:1px solid #000000;
font-size:.8em;
position:inherit;
}
#footer {
right:2.85em;
margin-top:.2em;
margin-bottom:2em;
margin-left: 2.85em;
margin-right:2.85em;
voice-family: "\"}\"";
voice-family: inherit;
margin-left:2.85em;
margin-right:2.85em;
padding:1em .5em 1em .5em;
background:#BFBD93;
font-size:.7em;
text-align:center;
}
And the HTML looks like this (extra code stripped to be simple): Code: <div id="content"> <div id="nav"> navigation navigation navigation </div> content goes here (the 'Stuff goes here' repeated in the screenshot) </div> <div id="footer"> Down here is content for the olive coloured box </div> I need to stretch the content area to hold the nav area if the nav element is bigger than the content, so it doesn't overlap like it is now...but I'm not sure how to do that. the content area can be only 2 or 3 lines of text due to the nature of the website, so I need the nav bar to fit accordingly. any help you can provide would be grateful. It's my fault for not checking IE after every change but somehow a div stopped stretching and I can't find the problem. Works great in FF but not in IE 6 or 7. Here's the problem page It just doesn't make sense to me. Am I missing a hack maybe? |
