CSS - How To Vertical Align To The Bottom
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 Similar TutorialsEDIT: hmm the embedded image isn't showing for me... here's a link: http://i34.tinypic.com/dh7qr6.jpg Referencing the attached image, any ideas about how to achieve this layout using floats (rather than tables)? The part that's giving me trouble is the bottom-left set of links, that should be aligned to the bottom of the container. Also, the width of the container is not fixed - it shouldn't have width specified at all, and expand to fit it's contents. I'm not worried at all about fonts, borders, padding, colors, etc, just trying to achieve the attached macro concept using CSS, best-practices and w/out tables. This layout is easily achieved using tables; the following markup (using tables) will render and behave as described - regardless of the size of the links, the size of the image, or the length of the description, but obviously I'd like to know how to do this with best practices of floating divs. Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

TYIA for any suggestions. reflectionstour.com ^ Site I am working on. So I have these nice little gifs that are curving the corners. In FF3 they work fine and it is XHTML/CSS 2.1 valid. Which of course means that they are not working right in IE 7 (haven't bothered testing 8, as I run Linux and it is hard enough to locate an IE7 to test it on.) So I have tried a few different searches and don't really know what to even call it. And no webdev tool bar on IE to help tell me. "vertical-align: bottom IE7 ~padding" "bottom padding issues IE7" I would rather not do separate CSS sheets as it is a simple site, there shouldn't be an issue here. Thanks! Wil Hi, Does anyone know how to veritcally align text using CSS? like <tr valign='middle'> when using tables. My page is on: http://www.3003online.com/demos/ecoceylon/v2/ You can see a difference in the "Home - About Us - Products - Contact Us" links when viewing from IE and Mozilla Firefox. Basically, I would like the text to be centered vertically in the bar... but CSS by default puts it on top. I tried adding padding,which helped in IE... but Firefox still shows the links a bit higher than they should be.,... any ideas how to fix this? Also, a different problem in case anyone knows how to fix it... you can see a small brown bar on the top bar. It is 50px in height. But I have no idea how to make its width as wide as the remainder of the page (this would change with different resolutions). The main content of the page is 760px wide. I would like a brown box next to that, which is 50px in height and the remainder width. Any ideas? "width: auto;" doesn't work unfortunately [ this is a follow up to my previous thread http://forums.devshed.com/showthread.php?t=270438 Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much. Hello to all of you, I am doing my first steps in respect to CSS programming and wonder if I can get some hint here. I have created a table, with two different line colors, and a changing line background color with hover. Basically everything works as expected - just the vertical-align command does not respond at all. Am I doing something wrong? What could be the reason, and how can I continue investigating? I am using the CSS stylesheet, in connection with a Joomla 1.5 CMS. Please see the code below: Code: table.general {
text-align: left;
vertical-align: top;
width: 100%;
border-collapse: collapse;
}
table.general th {
text-align: center;
font-size: 15px;
color: white;
font-style:bold;
height: 30px;
background-color:#95B3D7;
border: 3px solid #FFFFFF;
}
table.general tr.row1 {
background-color: #f1f1f1;
}
table.general tr.row2 {
background-color: #e0e0e0;
}
table.general tr.row1:hover {
background-color: #CCCCCC;
}
table.general tr.row2:hover {
background-color: #CCCCCC;
}
table.general td {
border: 3px solid #FFFFFF;
padding: 4px;
}
The classes are being used in the following form: Code: <table style="width: 320px;" class="general"> <col span="4" width="80"></col> <tbody> <tr> <th>head A</th> <th>head B</th> <th>head C</th> <th>Alface</th> </tr> <tr class="row1"> <td>Topic A</td> <td>65</td> <td>215</td> <td>35</td> </tr> <tr class="row2"> <td>Topic B</td> <td>2</td> <td>2,3</td> <td>1,2</td> </tr> <tr class="row1"> <td>Topic C</td> <td>68</td> <td>55</td> <td>13</td> </tr> <tr class="row2"> <td>Topic D</td> <td>44</td> <td>50</td> <td>33</td> </tr> <tr class="row1"> <td>etc.</td> <td>494</td> <td>611</td> <td>238</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> Thank you in advance for your kindness! I'm trying to put a line of text on the bottom of a box. Code: <div style="width:500px;height:500px;background:black;vertical-align:bottom;"> This is a black box </div> <div style="width:500px;height:500px;background:black;vertical-align:baseline;"> This is a black box </div> What the above code displays: Code: ------------------------- | This is a black box | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ------------------------- What I want it to display: Code: ------------------------- | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a black box | ------------------------- Is not working for me, or I'm not using it right. Here is my problem: http://www.kingtoad.net/development/kingtoad.net/ I want the "navigation" to align to the top even with the "content". I can't seem to get it up there though. Any suggestions would be nice. Hi I want to know if it is possible to vertical align the text in these div tags and how it's done.

Greets, dabomb_gent Hi, I am trying to use the vertical-align property to make some text appear in the middle of a div (set float:left). However it is not working. Following is some sample code I have done for testing: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>ccc</title>
<style>
div{
width:16.7em;
height:6.8em;
border:1px solid black;
vertical-align:middle;
float:left;
}
</style>

Is this possible? Thanks and Regards, Sim085 What I'm trying to do... I have some navigation links, a few pictures, and someone's name on the left hand side of the page. I want everything except for the name to be at the top.... the name is to be at the bottom. Is there a specific way to accomplish this? The content area will generally extend as high as 600 or so px, so would like the name to appear at the very bottom lined up with the content box. Thanks. Not sure exactly what code you need to see, but here's the left hand column: CSS: Code:
body {width:770px;
height:100%;
}
.nav_links {vertical-align:top; width:150px; }
.nav_links a{display:block; border-top:1px solid black; text-decoration:none;}
HTML: Code: <!-- Left Nav Menu --> <div class="nav_links"> Link 1 Link 2 Link 3 Link 4 Link 5 </div> <!-- End Left Nav Menu --> <!-- Misc. Pictures (Left Column)--> <div> <div style="float:right;"> <img src="images/left_pic_1.jpg" alt="Pic1" style="width:50px; margin-bottom:10px;" /><br /> <img src="images/left_pic_2.jpg" alt="Pic2" style="width:50px;" /> </div> </div> <div style="clear:both;"> <div style="float:right;"> <img src="images/left_pic_3.jpg" alt="Pic3" style=" width:50px; margin-bottom:10px;" /><br /> <img src="images/left_pic_4.jpg" alt="Pic4" style="width:50px;" /> </div> </div> <!-- End Misc. Pictures (Left Column) --> <!-- Name --> <div class="name" style="vertical-align:bottom;"> First M. Last </div> <!-- End Name --> How can i make #mydiv DIV (the main layout div), be vertically aligned to middle? http://www.dinal.ru/new/max/index2.htm I've read a lot of docs about vertical alignment in internet, but I haven't found a good cross-browser solution, which doesnt't destroy my current layout. Thank you in advance Artashes for example if there is a container div which holds an inner div, if i want the content of the inner div to appear exactly at the bottom edge of the inner div i have used the following code, #outer{ position: relative; float: left; width: 900px; height: 200px; } #outer .inner{ position: relative; float: left; width: 500px; height: 200px; vertical-align: bottom; } however the content of the inner div is starting at its default location which is top left of the inner div instead of using margin-top or padding-top, or positioning methods for the inner div to position the content at the bottom edge can the vertical-align: bottom; be used as this will be very accurate placed at the bottom edge even if the content increases the content will always appear at the bottom edge, unlike other methods where the margin-top, padding-top, and positioning, these values will have to be changed whenever content increases or decreases. please advice. thanks. 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 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? Hi, I'm trying to vertically align an element in my layout which is xhtml strict but it's not working. Here's the page: http://www.valeit.com/ben/test.htm The text should be vertically aligned in the middle of the layout but I can't seem to work it out. All the CSS is on the page - can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? Many thanks Kevin i am trying to vertical align the "go" button next to the text field. i've also tried to use margin's on the go button.. but it just messes up... anyhow, here is a link... http://defunctgames.com/helpfix/page2.htm thanks Thanks for taking the time to read my question. I have an image that I want to place in the middle of a contaier. I have <center></center> around the <img /> tag, but I can't get it to center vertically with the css below. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, Brad CSS: Code: img.contentimg {
vertical-align: middle;
}
HTML: Code: <div class="textbox1"><center><img class="contentimg" src="images/house1.jpg" /></center></div> Hi guys, I've got a table cell in which I want to display two pieces of text - one aligned top left, one aligned bottom right. Now, I can't for the life of me get the one to align to the bottom right. I can align the first bit of text to the top left fine, just not the second to to the bottom right. At the moment I've got this code: Code:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<table width="350" height="112" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td style="vertical-align: top" background="templates/<?=$templatedir?>/images/domain_box_05.gif" width="350" height="112">
<div style="height: 56px; padding: 10px 0px 0px 20px; border: 1px; border-style: solid">
test1
</div>
<div style="height: 56px; border: 1px; border-style: solid">
[<a href="pricing.php" target="_blank" onClick='window.open("/pricing.php","pricing","width=475,height=415,status=yes,scrollbars=1,resizable=1");return false;'>
test2</a>]
</div>
</form>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
I've just got the borders on there at the moment to see exactly where the div's are for debug purposes. I've tried using vertical-align: bottom, but it just doesn't do anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks How exactly can i vertically align text in css, i can't seem to find an easy way to do it, i basically want my text to be in the middle of a divs height, so much easier in tables heh. Tried padding but that then adds to the height, making it pointless for this use hi. i'm trying to have some text in a div, but also i want the text align to the bottom of the div. something like. but i don't know how... have a look at http://www.desorden.net/prueba.html any ideas? thanks in advance |
