I have a question regarding CSS and how to bequeath background information within an unordered list.
I have a footer in that I would like to show different flags. there I have a footer class
<ul class="flag">
<li id="de"></li>
</ul>
.flag consists of:
.footer #legals #list2 .flag{
width: 20px;
height: 10px;
display: inline-block;
float:left;
margin-top: 16px;
margin-left: 15px;
background-image:url(../images/flags.png);
}
.footer #legals #list2 .flag #de{
background-position: -40px;
}
.footer #legals #list2 .flag #en{
background-position: -20px;
}
.footer #legals #list2 .flag #en_us{
background-position: -20px;
}
So I thought it would be easier for each flag just to change the entry background-position.
But for some reason this is not working and I dont know why? I also tried to use instead of li id div id but it is still the same.
If there is someone who could help me out I really would appreciate it.
The background-image is set on the <ul> instead of the <li>. If you change that first selector from
.footer #legals #list2 .flag
to
.footer #legals #list2 .flag li
then the <li> will actually have a background-image to position.

I am trying to get a jQuery function to slide li items left and right by clicking an arrow. I am using a jQuery script called TinyCarousel.js. While I have it functioning properly, it continues to scroll right until the last li item is in the first position. What I have currently can be seen here in the "Games Currently Testing or Releasing section" under the main slider. If you scroll all the way to the right you will notice the issue.
Is it possible to either...
1) Change the jQuery to make the last li item stop once it is showing all the way on the right side of the window? I know this would have to be relative to the browser window size as well as make one single partial movement incase the window size has a partial item showing. I also know I would have to know the amount of li items which I can do within the php.
2) Or two, append the li continually so that the slider never seems to end. Just continues through repeating over and over? I would guess that I need to continually append li items as well as remove them if they are off screen.
I attempted to create a jFiddle to show the issue. But it is doing something all together different on jFiddle which is closer to what I need. It seems to stop moving right at some point. But it does not need the entire last li to display completely. What is it doing differently than what I have on the live site where it does stop?
Any help is greatly appreciated. I did search and found this but it did not seem to work in this situation. Thank you in adavnce.
I have am using jQuery 1.10.2, php 5.4, TinyCarousel.js version 1.9
Here is what I have currently.
The CSS
.PrevArrow {

margin-top: 20px;
}

position: relative;
margin-top: 5px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
#slider-code .buttons {
display: block;
margin: 0px 10px 0 10px;
float: left;
}
#TickHead {
margin-top: 3px;
}
#slider-code .prev {

}
#slider-code .next {

}

}
#slider-code .overview {
list-style: none;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
position: absolute;

top: 0;
}
.TestingTickerText {
vertical-align: top;
color: #666666;
font-family:'Open Sans', "lucida grande", tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
}
#slider-code .overview li {
float: left;
margin: 0 20px 0 0;
padding: 1px;
height: 65px;
width: 105px;

}
#slider-code .pager {

}
#slider-code .pager li {

}
#slider-code .pagenum {

color: #555555;
font-size: 14px;
font-weight: bold;
display: block;
}
#slider-code .active {
color: #fff;
}
The php
<div id="slider-code">
<div class="PrevArrow">
<img src="Link to Left Arrow"/>
</div>
<div class="viewport">
<ul class="overview">
<li>Item 1</li>
<li>Item 2</li>
<li>Item 3</li>
etc...
</ul>
</div>
<div class="NextArrow">
<img src="Link to Right Arrow"/>
</div>';
<center>
<span id="TickHead" class="cat_bg2">Games Currently Testing or Releasing</span>
</center>
</div>
The jQuery
(function ($) {
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#slider-code').tinycarousel({ display: 1});
});
}(jQuery));
I think the problem you're having is due to css positioning of the images. Try adjusting the margins so that they will be placed slightly further away from each other; so that when no image is appended the slider will stop and there will be no space. If thats not the issue, try this:
1:
Create a div and place all of the slider images in it.
2:
Give each arrow button a separate div and class.
3:
Use the jquery append function to dynamically add images to the slider class when a user clicks either button.
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.arrowbutton').click(function(){
$('.imageslider').append('.image');
});
});
Also, remember to give your image slider a set width in css, and set overflow to hidden. That should make sure no appended images go outside of the slider, and no scrollbars appear.
I have a css menu which has a width of 400 for non-Admins... and a width of 500 for Admins. If I set the UL width to 500, the menu centers fine and nicely for Admins. But for non-admins, whose mneu is really only 400 wide... it's off-kilter.
So I removed the width attribute from the UL to try and remove this and then it lost centering altogether; the whole menu is now stuck to the left side of the container.
Anyone have a simple idea for how to make it always centered? Site is here:
http://www.runic-paradise.com/
ul.menu{
height: 40px;
list-style: none outside none;
margin: 0 auto;
/*width: 500px;*/
}
/*li{
width:100px;
height:50px;
float:left;
color:#191919;
text-align:center;
overflow:hidden;
}*/
a.menu{
color:#FFF;
text-decoration:none;
}
p.menu{
padding-top: 10px;
padding-right: 5px;
padding-left: 5px;
}
.subtext{
padding-top: 10px;
}
ul.menu li{
width: 100px;
height: 40px;
float: left;
color: #191919;
text-align: center;
overflow: hidden;
}
/*Menu Color Classes*/
.green{
background:#6AA63B url('/img/menu/green-item-bg.jpg') top left no-repeat;
}
.yellow{
background:#FBC700 url('/img/menu/yellow-item-bg.jpg') top left no-repeat;
}
.red{
background:#D52100 url('/img/menu/red-item-bg.jpg') top left no-repeat;
}
.purple{
background:#5122B4 url('/img/menu/purple-item-bg.jpg') top left no-repeat;
}
.blue{
background:#0292C0 url('/img/menu/blue-item-bg.jpg') top left no-repeat;
}
<ul class="menu">

<p class="menu">Home</p>
<p class="subtext">The front page</p>
</li>
<li class="yellow">
<p class="menu">-</p>
<p class="subtext">More info</p>
</li>
<li class="red">
<p class="menu">Forums</p>
<p class="subtext">Get in touch</p>
</li>
<li class="blue">
<p class="menu">-</p>
<p class="subtext">Send us your stuff!</p>
</li>
<?php
if ($user->data['group_id'] == 5)
{
echo ' <li class="purple">
<p class="menu">Admin</p><p class="subtext">Legal things</p>
</li>';
}
?>
</ul>
Your CSS sets the ul.menu width to 400px. If the user is admin, the php script adds another 100px wide li to ul.menu. When this happens, you have to set the ul.menu width to 500px. If you do this, the css rule margin:0px auto; will handle the centering as expected.
A simple jQuery fix would be something like this:
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
var menu=$('ul.menu');
if(menu.find('li')>4) {
//if there are more then 4 menu items, reset menu width to 500px
menu.css('width','500px');
}
});
</script>
Use max-width:500px;for UL.Demo for these http://jsfiddle.net/dhanith/ZMB93/
Can you please try this,
In animated-menu.css (demo url: http://www.runic-paradise.com/), Change margin style as like below
ul.menu {
height: 40px;
list-style: none outside none;
margin: auto 25%;
}
I wonder whether someone may be able to help me please.
I'm using Aurigma Image Uploader and FancyBox to produce this gallery page. The problem I'm having is that the images are positioned to go vertically down the page, whereas I would prefer them to go horizontally across the page, creating separate rows of images, one underneath the other.
I appreciate that some may not know anything about the Aurigma package, but I think I'm right in saying that 'Fancybox' is a little more widely used.
I just wondered whether someone could perhaps provide somne guidance please on the settings I would need to change within the Fancybox script so that the images are positioned horizontally rather than vertically.
Many thanks
.ccs file extract
.gallery-image-list { padding: 0; list-style-type: none; }
.gallery-image-list .item { display: inline-block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px; padding: 15px; white-space: nowrap; width: 150px; float:left; }
.gallery-image-list .wide-item { width: 250px; }

.gallery-image-list .item .data li { margin-bottom: 5px; }
I think what you want is to add float:left; to your item class in css.
This is the code for my next/prev navigation found at http://ilikeyou.tk/763/ :
<div class="navigation">
<? if($nexts['id'] == ''){ ?>
<? }else{ ?>
<? } ?>
</div>
I would like to vertically center the buttons. I tried using vertical-align:middle; which didn't work. I also tried top:50%; but that didn't do the job either.
Here is my css:
.navigation {
position: relative;
float: left;
vertical-align : middle;
height: auto;
padding: 0;
margin: 0 -20px 0 -22px;
width: 636px;
z-index:1;
}
.navigation a.prev{
background: url('images/nav_left.png');
float: left;
width: 50px;
height: 50px;
margin-left:10px;
}
.navigation a.next {
background: url('images/nav_right.png');
float: right;
width: 50px;
height: 50px;
margin-right:10px;
}
Thanks!
So, I'm guessing that the content area height is not very static.
http://jsfiddle.net/aBzhu/
Trick is to have the outer element set to position: relative; float: left; and then the element you want to center as position: absolute; top: 50%; margin-top: -Half_the_height_of_this_element;
Note that this only works when the element that you want to center vertically IS static height. Should fit your usage I think.
Edit: Oh.. and I dont think this necessarily works in ie6. But does work ie7+
Edit2: Also if youre not interested in such a puny methods you should check this out Using jQuery to center a DIV on the screen
vertical-align is intended for table cell rendering, and even this is quite problematic. Why not just add a few pixels of top padding to your navigation ul? It's not real centering, but you're obviously not worried about dunamic scaling when you're using a fixed height graphic for the navigation background.
This Solution Matched me perfectly for small texts. Even if it is a link or just a text inside the div, this CSS Class could vertically align the content inside the DIV. Works for IE as well..
.verticalCenterDivText{
height: 29px;
line-height: 29px;
}
Hope this helps....

Weirdly, I've never come across this issue before, but I've just started making a site and the top navigation isn't playing nicely.
I want a small amount of white space between each menu item, but when I have new lines between my <li> elements and my <a> elements in my IDE (Netbeans), the white space disappears, yet it looks fine if I have <li><a></a></li> all on the same line. I was always under the impression html ignored white space in the code.
I've checked for any weird characters causing problems in other text editors and can't find anything.
Here's the code...
Like this the menu looks correct but code looks ugly (I know it looks fine when it's this simple, but I'm going be adding more complexity in which makes it look awful all on one line):
<ul id="menu">
<li>About</li>
<li class="active">Track List</li>
<li>Stats</li>
<li>Stats</li>
</ul>
Produces:
Like this the menu looks wrong but code looks fine:

</li>
<li class="active">

It seems to be totally fine with the CSS you supplied, so I'm guessing there must be some other rule affecting your links. Could you please supply us with a live preview or the full stylesheet?
Edit:
Seems to be an issue with how "display: inline" collapses the elements contents, though I couldn't find any proof of that. Change
#menu li {
display: inline;
}
to
#menu li {
display: inline-block;
}
or add a margin to it:
#menu li {
display: inline;
margin-right: 5px;
}
To fix the alignment of the text, I'll go ahead and recommend you float the lis. Someone please correct me if this is a horrible idea. Add
#menu {
overflow: hidden;
}
#menu li {
float: left;
}
to your existing rules.
Just as a guess try setting the line-height for the li & a tags to 1em or even 0
#menu li, #menu a {
line-height: 1em;
}
Firstly, those two screenshots appear to be swapped around, the first has gaps between the links, caused by the white-space in the second code snippet.
This new white-space-collapse property may be able to help.
#menu li{white-space-collapse:discard}
via: http://safalra.com/web-design/html-and-css/white-space-property/
If that doesn't work, the next option is to set the <a> tags to block level elements and the <li> tags to inline.
#menu li{display:inline}
#menu li a{
display:inline-block
padding: 5px;
background-color: #932996;
border-bottom: solid 1px #932996;
}
#menu li a:hover{
border-bottom: solid 3px #FF0000;
}
#menu li.active a {
background-color: #58065e;
}
so it seems the targeted answer's have all been provided, so I'd just like to add that as a rule of thumb I always use normalize.css which is a css library that ensures normal
you can download it or use npm install normalize.css
You must set overflow: hidden on the parent box, then set position: relative on the <li>:
ul {
margin: 0;
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
padding: 25px;
margin: 5px 0;
overflow: hidden
}
ul li {
display: inline-block;
padding: 19px 10px;
text-align: center;
position: relative
}
ul li::before {
content: '';
position: absolute;
width: 400%;
height: 1px;
background: #f3f3f3;
bottom: 0;
right: -250px
}
