CSS - Align Div Element In Bottom Of Container Div
I have a container div that has a height of 500px.
My page content only takes up about 300px and I want a copyright notice at the bottom of the page. So I am trying to get the copyright div to bottom align on the container div. In FF, position:absolute;bottom:0; works but that doesn't work in IE which for some reason places the div outside the container div. Any tips on how to do this? Similar TutorialsCode: html, body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
font: 62.5%/1.5;
}
#container {
width: 770px;
margin: 15px auto 15px auto;
background: white;
}
#headera {
height: 57px;
}
#nav {
background: white;
height: 28px;
}
#headerb {
height: 158px;
margin-bottom:10px;
}
#sidebar {
float: right;
width: 250px;
}
#content {
margin-right: 250px;
}
#footer {
clear: both;
background: white;
height: 50px;
}
IE is not recognizing the bottom margin for the container. The container is centered and 15px off the top of the page but the bottom of the container is not 15px off the bottom of the page. It works fine in other browsers. So, what IE bug is this? Hi! I want to align my container div 120px to the left from the center, what css code should I use for that? You can see the homepage at madeleinegaterud dot com/test Hi guys, I'm having a real problem with CSS on this page. The page views fine in IE, but in firefox I cannot get the green box (div id=maincontent) to extend down to the bottom of the black box... as you can see the black box simply flows out. The green box is extending down to the bottom of the white box, but it stops there. Can anyone think of any obvious ways to fix this? I tried placing a clear:both div at the bottom of main content (which is the red bar you can see) , but that too only actually clears the white box, not the black one. Here's the main bits of css... Code:
#maincontent
{
position:relative;
width:762px;
margin-top:0px;
background-image:url(contentbkg.jpg);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
padding-top:10px;
text-align:left;
}
#left
{
font-size:12px;
color:#FFFFFF;
float:left;
margin-left:5px;
margin-top:10px;
}
#right
{
color:#FFFFFF;
float:right;
margin-right:10px;
margin-top:10px;
position:absolute;
#position:relative;
}
#translucentblack {
width: 150px;
float:right;
background-color: #000000;
filter:alpha(opacity=40);
-moz-opacity:0.4;
opacity: 0.4;
font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
padding:5px;
}
#opaqueblack {
width: 150px;
background-color: transparent;
float:right;
position:absolute;
margin-left:592px;
#margin-left:22px;
z-index: 2;
font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
padding:5px;
}
#translucentbkg {
color:#FFFFFF;
font-size:12px;
width: 566px;
background-color:#FFFFFF ;
filter:alpha(opacity=80);
-moz-opacity:0.8;
opacity: 0.8;
padding:5px;
text-align:left;
font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
#opaquetext
{
color:#006600;
font-size:12px;
width: 566px;
background-color: transparent;
position:absolute;
z-index: 2;
padding:5px;
text-align:left;
font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
basically left and right sit inside maincontent, then opaquetext and translucentbkg sit inside left, whilst opaqueblack and translucentblack sit inside right! phew The reason for opaque and translucent divs is that I'm using mozilla's tip here http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Useful_CSS_tips:Color_and_Background mirroring content and positioning one div over another to get semi transparent backgrounds. Hope that all made sense... any help would be incredible!!! thanks! Hi, I'm trying to do something that is simple with table cells but which I'm finding difficult using CSS. Basically I have a container div that is 400px height. I want to position 3 divs in a row (float: left) at the bottom of that div and put an image in each of them. So, in short... <div id="outer"> <div id="inner1"><img src="x.jpg" /></div> <div id="inner2"><img src="y.jpg" /></div> <div id="inner3"><img src="z.jpg" /></div> </div> ...where the three images are bottom aligned. I want to have the images in their own div containers so that I can give each of their boxes 33% of the screen width and set apdding if required. No doubt I'm approaching this the wrong way. Can anyone help? Thanks, Pat Hoping someone can help. I'm trying to figure out a way to align something to the left of an existing element within a container of variable height. The existing element is already aligned to the left edge of the container. To be more specific, I am trying to place a helper graphic to the left of the email text-field in the "Leave a Comment" form (not the "Email this Zing" form) on this page: http://www.zingfu.com/?zing=4419693e9e98f If it's possible to the place the helper graphic right next to the text field in the code, but then to break it out of the container div to move to the left of the text field, that would be great. Or if I could apply positioning to the helper graphic based on the positioning of the text field, that'd be fine too. But I'm not sure if either is possible. Little help? I'm attempting to get it so when the main content div exceeds my min-height specifications, that it expands the div, which in turn expands the container with an absolutely positioned footer at bottom:0;. Works fine in all newer browsers with the exception of IE7. What do I need to do to get it to expand in that version? Here is the link to the page: http://www.chcs-ut.com/chcs-new.php And the stylesheet: http://www.chcs-ut.com/css/style.css Also, I would really rather not have to specify a min-height for my main content div. I'd rather just have it automatically fill to 100% of the main container that is set to 100% height and min-height, so that the footer automatically appears at the bottom of the screen if the content is not large enough to push it down there by itself. Can't seem to get it to work, though (in ANY browser) without specifying a min-height for the main content div. Problem with that is different resolutions/browsers would require a different value, so hard-coding it isn't a desireable solution. Any thoughts? EDIT: Both problems were fixed by adding "height:auto !important" to my main content container, instead of specifying a "min-height". Works across the board! Hi All, I'm trying to create some expanding headers using images and background color/images. Everything seems to be working fine except that at the bottom of the heading there is a 1 or 2 pixel showing of the background color! I assume it is something I'm missing in the CSS rule as the problem occurs in both Mozilla and IE! Click here to see example It's not the images as there on a white background and are cropped fine as can be seen from the enlarged left side image. [html] <div style="width: 162px; color: white; background: green; margin: 0; padding: 0;"><img src="/RhL.gif" width="25" height="50" border="0"><span>HEADING TEXT</span><img src="/RhR.gif" width="25" height="25"></div> [/html] Any help kindly appreciated PHP Addict okay I don't know why my text will not wrap in any of my "float:rights" My quicklink section I don't care about as much as the feature student section I'm building. The text spills out of the paragrah block and keeps running. http://www.mgan.net/form-honors/main(2).htm Any thoughts on how to fix it or a link to a site that would explain it's just as good Hi all Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Expected result (Firefox): expected.JPG Unexpected result (Internet Explorer): unexpected.JPG Is there something I can do against this instead of adding a padding-top to the H1 or a padding-top to the div.outer? Thanks for help, Josh I'm looking for a CSS element that behaves like a table, where the size of the container will always be just big enough to surround the data inside, and will grow or shrink based on the content inside without having to specify any widths or heights. A div (with a border) with no width specified will go on forever horizontally. A table (with a border) with no width will stop as soon as the data inside ends. Is there a way to simulate this table behavior using CSS? Thanks Hi all, The easiest way to see the problem is to look at this demo in firefox. (I haven't patched it to work in IE yet.) The menu items in the 1st 2 menu's don't expand to fill the available area. Any ideas? Hi there, I am having trouble aligning 2 divs to the bottom. I have a left and right side div for a header area, however the right side is taller than the left, so it is leaving a gap at the bottom of both sides. This is my CSS: PHP Code: #nav_wrapper{ } #nav_left{ width: 620px; padding-left: 20px; float:left; } #nav_right{ float:right; text-align: right; padding-right: 20px; } #member_login{ width: 180px; padding: 10px; font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #373737; font-size: 11px; border-top: 1px solid #ffffff; border-left: 1px solid #ffffff; border-right: 1px solid #ffffff; background-color: #f6f6f6; line-height: 200%; } #member_login a{ font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #373737; font-size: 11px; font-weight:bold; text-decoration:underline; } and this is my HTML: PHP Code: <div id="nav_wrapper"> <div id="nav_left"> left content <div id="nav_right"> <div id="member_login"> right content </div> </div> </div> Any ideas? I have three divs. The main div contains the background color and border. The second div has text, and The third has an img. What I want is for the image to sit at the bottom of the main div and stay there when the font-size is increased. I want the text to stick to the top of the main div. Can someone please help me. I have attached the code below it is all messed up cause I have been trying everything I can think of. ".abouttestcontainer { width : 100%; float : left; border-top : 1px solid #cccccc; border-bottom : 1px solid #cccccc; border-left : 1px solid #cccccc; color : #001F56; background-color : #DDEADE; border : 1px solid black; } .abouttest { float : left; width : 450px; height : 100%; padding : 10px 50px 0px 10px; text-align : left; font-size : 12px; border : 1px solid black; margin-right : 10px; } .aboutimage { border : 1px solid black; position : relative; display : inline; vertical-align : bottom; }" ok so i have a photo gallery and the images vary in height. and so instead of having them defaulted to top aligned, i'm try to figure out how to get them to bottom align. anyone have any ideas or articles i can check out? thx Hi! Is it possible to align vertically block elements in a fixed-height (unknown) container? If not, this is a serious shortcoming of the css model of placing objects on the screen. Thanks! I have a div container that changes size depending on the information inside it... i also have a navi bar that is on everysingle page.... and i want it to always be 20px from the bottom.... i tried vertical-align:bottom and put a margin-bottom:20px on it... but the vertical-align didnt seem to work... i must be missing something So I have a 3-column layout in CSS and I'd like to have the content in the right-most column to be align to the bottom, like so: Code: | LEFT | MIDDLE | | | (top) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | RIGHT | | | | (bottom) | Any idea how to do it? Thx! How would I align a div to the true bottom (by this i mean below the viewport. at current i use: Code:
.footer
{
background-color:#FFFFFF;
width:100%;
height:20px;
color:#000000;
position:absolute;
bottom:0px;
}
but this just aligns my div to the bottom of my window, not the bottom of the page, if i then need to scroll down it is visible that its not at the bottom of the page. any ideas? Ok, I've taken many different approaches to this and I can't find a solution. I'm looking to make my footer align to the bottom of the browser window. For some reason I can't so I figured I'd post up my code here and get a different set of eyes to scan over it and help me out. Here's the code: Code:
