CSS - Floating And Keeping In The Flow
Hello,
I'm stumped on how to float an image to the left, and still keep it in the flow of the document. Here is an example off my head. Code:
#container {
border: 1px solid #000;
}
img.floatleft {
float:left;
}
div {
display: inline;
}
<div id='container'>
<img src='myimage.jpg' class='floatleft'>
<div>text</div><br>
<div>text</div><br>
<div>
<div id='container'>
<img src='myimage.jpg' class='floatleft'>
<div>text</div><br>
<div>text</div><br>
<div>
The image will exceed the bounds of 'container' if the image is larger than the text is tall. How can I get around this? Thanks again for the help. webg <div>text</div> Similar TutorialsHello Friends I've a problem where my images flow away after i did added an banner has the following css code Code:
#topbar{
position:absolute;
padding: 2px;
background-color: #F4F3B3;
visibility: hidden;
z-index: 100;
}
HTML Code Code: <div id="topbar"> <a href="" onClick="closebar(); return false"><img src="images/close.gif" alt="blah" border="0" /></a> ads goes here </div> now the images on IE below the banner flow away and after i make refresh it back again i've tired to change position:absolute; to fixed/relative ..ect but it will effect the banner since it moves down with the scroll thanks in advance What are some reasons that a div box could come out of the flow of the page. I know when you set an elements position to absolute, it comes out of the flow. Fixed does this as well. Any other reasons, or bugs. I have a couple div boxes which are positioned relatively and floated left and right. They have come out of the flow and now overlap other elements. I have no idea why.

I'm running into a problem with an interface that I'm developing. Basically it's a collapsible treeview using DHTML and the display property to 'open' and 'close' tables. I need to have several of these tables side by side but without overflowing horizontally so that the user has to scroll horizontally. The best way I've found was to float the elements so that any overflowing tables would be wrapped. Example: [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] However, a problem arised when I 'open' and 'closed' the tables repeatedly (three times or more). The other tables started to wrap immediately after the first table (the one I was opening and closing). So that all the tables lined up in a single column eventually and not flowing as they should've been. Example: [] [] [] [] [] Upon refreshing the page, everything flows as it should. Please let me know if I'm unclear in my description. Hi All, I am using DIV tags to hold content rather than using a table. I have about 16 elements with the following style applied: Code:
div.game {
text-align: center;
float: left;
height: 180px;
width: 150px;
overflow: hidden;
}
This works well, the DIVs will fit as many per row as possible but it can leave a lot of empty space to the right of the screen (up to 150px obviously) and if the last row has less DIVs they to the left of the screen like this: |--- page ---| [ ][ ][ ][ ] [ ][ ][ ][ ] [ ] I would like to be able to either center the DIVs or to space them out like this: |--- page ----| [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] ______ [ ] Hope that is clear. I can't set relative widths, as I want the page to scale. So is there any way I can acheive the effect I want? Thanks. 'Ello, This problem is a bit complex to try and explain on here so if this gets too confusing just let me know and I'll try and clear up whatever you are confused about. I am currently building a site that has a wrapper div with a width set to 100% and a max-width of 1000px so that on smaller screens the site will appear nicer and not have horizontal scrollbars. In this wrapper div is a content div that is 84% of the wrappers width and has it's margin set to 0 auto to make in then content div centre in the wrapper. What I'm wondering is if there is a way to change the content divs width from 84% to 100% once the wrapper div get to a small enough size. At the moment when the screen gets too small the content div is still 84% size of the wrapper div and centred, but say on a screen with a resolution of 800x600 I think it would be more beneficial to have to content div take up the whole wrapper to display more content. I was thinking of setting a min-width but then if the screen gets smaller than the min-width a horizontal scroll bar would appear. I was just wondering if something like this was possible, if not it doesn't matter to much as I can set the min-width up for a 800x600 screen resolution and anything below that probably isn't too important anyway. I've got a 2 column layout. It goes like this: .leftnav { position: absolute; left: 0px; top: 0px; } .content { position: absolute; left: 150px; top: 0px; } In the html: <div class="leftnav">A bunch of navigation</div> <div class="content">A bunch of content</div> Now, underneath both of these columns, spanning the width of both, I want a footer div. The leftnav and the content will not be the same length down the page. I don't know which of these 2 columns will be longer on any given page. However, underneath the longest column, I want to put my footer div. I could do this with a table easily enough. But how fun would that be? Hello, My page when correct should show the HeaderContainer, blow that the ActionContainer which has, 3 column divs, then below that the FooterContainer. It is important that the page build starts with the CenterContainer, then the LeftContainer, then RightContainer. My issue is that the LeftContainer and RightContainer columns both are aligning to the bottom of each other, and to the bottom of the CenterContainer column. I think this could be an issue with floats. What do you think? See online demo, http://tlcgiftsandbaskets.com/demo/positioning/position_css.php Code:
body{
margin: 0pt; margin:0 15px 0 0;
text-align: center;
}
#Container{
position: absolute;
z-index:1;
width: 700px;
height:auto;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -350px;
border-width: 1px;
border-top-style: solid;
border-left-style: solid;
border-right-style: solid;
border-color: #ccbbaa;
background-color: #ffffff;
text-align:left;
}
#ActionContainer { margin:0 0 0 0; text-align:left; border:1px solid orange; }
#CenterContainer { margin:0 0 0 175px; text-align:left; border:1px solid yellow; width:250px; }
#LeftContainer { margin:0 0 0 10px; text-align: left; width: 150px; border:1px solid green; float:left; }
#RightContainer { margin:0 0 0 450px; text-align: left; width: 150px; border:1px solid blue; float:right; }
#HeaderContainer { margin:0 0 0 0; width: 700px; height: 245px; border:1px solid red; }

HI, I have an A-Z contents list for my website. I can manually split the list into 3 columns of equal length, but that only works as long as the list doesn't change length and the window is the right size. Is there a way to have a single long list and automatcally show it in 3 newspaper style columns? Thanks Richard hi i have a table that has another small table of a fixed height aligned to the right. what i want is that when i enter text in the larger table, the text should 'flow' around the corner of the table. +----------+----+ +....1.....+..2.+ +..........+----+ +...............+ +---------------+ when i enter text in 1, i want that it wraps it around 2 as well. please tell me how to do it. Can be all viewed here -> http://streaming.smad.jmu.edu/smad307/ring/gloo I have three layers starting at the same position on the page. Each layer has a Y-repeat repeating image that tiles seamlessly. There is one for the left spacer, the middle content, and the right spacer. The Nav menu on the left are just images placed in at the top of the left spacer layer. I'm trying to get each of these layers to expand as content fills up the middle Content layer. This doesnt work at all in Firefox - with any excess content just heading off into white space. And it works somewhat with IE - with only the Content layer to expand as content fills it. I know this is a recurring issue with CSS, but is there a simple fix for this? I've seen this done before without any Javascript hacks, but can't remember where. I do remember, it didn't look like the most graceful solution. And in IE, the navigation .gifs on the left have a gap between each of them. I found that odd since they're just <IMG>s within the layer. Any help would be greatly appreciated I have a set of background images that work well in giving the impression that there is a solid page on screen. However, as you can see here , once I start introducing structure it falls apart and I'd really () like to know why. (The CSS validates OK and I've given temporary borders to the divs to help show where on the screen they should appear). Hi How do I get a <div> to stay at the bottom, constantly, even if a layer above it gets resized so that its longer than the page in the browser. I have one <div> and then the footer <div> but the upper <div> gets resized to about 1000px and over laps the footer <div>, how do I get the footer <div> to keep at the bottom ? Hi, I have started to get to grips with CSS but I am currently just playing - I have not designed any serious pages but am about to. I wondered if it is possible (I am sure it is but I cannot work out how) to use a h1 tag in the middle of a paragraph <p> without making it start a new line. Does anyone know of a method to force the text within the h1 tag to just flow within the sentance? For example if the above block was a paragraph the word CSS on the first line could be included within a h1 tag but it would remain on the line as it currently is (however in this case it would be forced to appear as capital letters, but I can take care of that part myself). Thanks for your time Hi the I wonder if there is a way to keep spiders away from certain sections of my web pages? For example, keep them away from the nav_bar, but index the rest of the html page? Someone told me it could be done by CSS but I've tried to search for it without any luck. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Ponch I am working on aligning a pricelist with product and price. The procuct is on the left, and the price should align to the right on the same line. When I try to use float: right in the div for the price it jumps down a line, if I use text-align right in a relative devision it also jumps doen a line. I also tried adding align:right to the b tag. Any ideas how to get this done? I am trying to avoid tables. Thanks I am trying to have an element that will float above the others on the page and also be centered. When I make the position absolute, it will float above the others, but won't center (dynamically with window resize) and if I make the position auto, it will center but not float above the others. Here is the style: Code:
.main {
position:auto;
margin: 0px auto;
text-align: center;
width: 800px;
background-color:red;
z-index:1;
}
Thank you I believe this has been asked before, but I'm unsure what search terms to use... Basic one column CSS layout. How to keep the footer at the bottom of the window even when content doesn't reach that far? I'm having problems with keeping the border of an div tight in against the div's content. At the following URL http://alphaworks.co.uk/problems/box/ I want the next and prev divs to be a little larger than the text inside them and then the outer prev_next div should be a little bigger than the two divs inside it but not stretching to the width of the page as it does now. Can someone show me the error of my ways? Thanks, Geoff Hi, I have a container with a border that works fine , but when I float 4 elements that are in a row, the container shrinks, and they are outside the container. How can I align four boxes, and keep them in the container? here's the example: http://www.caillouette.com/alpha-dream/ thanks |
