How To Use CSS Position

Welcome friends!

As you know in the previous we discussed about the float what is float? And how to use them and solve other problems related to the float. You can contort the layout by the float property but there is another important property which is called css position. In this tutorial we are going to explore css positioning. Css positioning is another important property to controlling the layout.

What is css positioning?

Css position property is used to control the flow of elements in the webpage or position the element on the webpage. With the help of position property you can position the element on the page where you want.

Static position

In css position static is the default value it is not affected by the left, right, top, and bottom.

NOTE

To set up the position you must define the position property .

Example without using static position:

.box1{
width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#0000A0;
}

 .box2{
 width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#FF0000;
  }

  .box3{
  width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#00FF00;
   }

Example with using static position:

.box1{
position:static;
right:20px;
width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#0000A0;

 }
 .box2{
 position:static;
 top:10px;
 width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#FF0000;
  }
  .box3{
  position:static;
  left:100px;
   width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#00FF00;
   }

Now you can see there is no difference between using static position property or not and other thing is that it is not affected by the left, right, top and bottom.

RELATIVE POSITION

Css position relative behave like static position but it is affected by top, bottom, left and right but the static position is not affected by these properties.

                                                                                                         

EXAMPLE NO:1

.box1{
position:relative;
width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#0000A0;

 }
 .box2{
position:relative;
 width:150px;
height:200px;
background-color:#FF0000;
  }
  .box3{
  position:relative;
   width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#00FF00;

  }

In the above example you can see the relative position is behaving like static position.

EXAMPLE NO:2

.box1{
position:relative;
width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#0000A0;
}
 .box2{
position:relative;
left:200px;
 width:150px;
height:200px;
background-color:#FF0000;
  }
  .box3{
  position:relative;
   width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#00FF00;
   }

In the above example you can see how the second box is affect by the adding of left position property.

NOTE

In the relative positioning all element affected by it so while using relative position be careful. Absolute property is very useful to avoid these problems.

Css Absolute Position

Css position absolute is the best way of positioning element. With the absolute position you can place the where you want it does not affect the other element on the page that’s why this property of position is very useful.

EXAMPLE

.box1{
position:absolute;
top:0px;
left:200px;
width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#0000A0;
 }
 .box2{
width:150px;
height:200px;
background-color:#FF0000;
  }
  .box3{
width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#00FF00;
   }

In the above example you can observe that after adding the absolute position to the first box it is not affected other elements.

POSITION FIXED

Css position fixed is always stay at one place it moves with the scrolling of the page.

EXAMPLE

#topnav {
            background-color:#262626;
            width:100%;
            height:50px;
           position:fixed;
           top:0px;}

In the above screen shot you can see the navbar on the top which has fixed position.

Z-INDEX

This property very useful in some condition when you apply position to the element it overlap the other element to solve this problem we use z-index css property.

EXAMPLE before applying z-index

.box1{
position:absolute;
top:0px;
left:200px;
width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#0000A0;
}
 .box2{
position:absolute;
left:210px;
top:20px;
 width:150px;
height:200px;
background-color:#FF0000;
  }
  .box3{
 width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#00FF00;
   }

In the above example you can see how the boxes overlapping each other and now it is your wish which element you want in the front and the which one in the behind.

EXAMPLE after applying z-index

.box1{
position:absolute;
top:0px;
left:200px;
z-index:1;
width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#0000A0;

 }
 .box2{
position:absolute;
left:210px;
top:20px;
 width:150px;
height:200px;
background-color:#FF0000;
  }
  .box3{
width:150px;
height:150px;
background-color:#00FF00;
   }

CONCLUSION

After the understanding of positioning now you can design the beautiful layouts with the help of positioning.

CSS FLOAT PROPERTY

Hi friends

As you know that our last post about css conflicts and today we are going to discuss about the float property which is used for designing layout. Before using float people try to create layout with html tables and frames but later the css property float which is now famous and use by designer to make the layout. With the help of float property you can easily design the layout but the problem is that if you don’t know it properly you have to face lots of problem. So today I am going to discuss the all those problem which relate to the floats.

WHAT IS THE FLOAT?

Float is the property of css which is used to positioning the element on the webpage. It has four values left, right, none and inherit.

                                                                                                                       

Left to float the element on the left side.

Right to float the element on the right side.

None it is the default property. The element will not float.

Inherit the property inherited from the parent element.

ADVANTAGES OF FLOAT

The float property used to design layout.

It is used to the wrap text around the image.

It is used to positioning the element.

It is used to make columns.

EXAMPLE;

#para1{float:left;
width:200px;
margin:10px;
}#para2{float:left;
width:200px;
margin:10px;
}

CLEAR

It is the very helpful property to control the float. For example you make layout in which you add the float to the two element such as #content and #sidebar and footer move itself behind the these two elements. How to recover the float to its original position?

We use the clear property to recover the original position of elements.

For example

Example befor using clear property;

#container {
background-color:#C0C0C0;width:500px;
height:500px;
margin:10px;
float:left;
border:1px solid black;
}
#sidebar {
background-color:#C0C0C0;width:400px;
height;400px;
float:left;
margin:10px;
border: 1px solid black;
}
#footer {
background-color:#8E8E8E;
width:920px;
height:100px;
}

Example after using clear property;

#container {
background-color:#C0C0C0;width:500px;
height:500px;
margin:10px;
float:left;
border:1px solid black;
}
#sidebar {
background-color:#C0C0C0;width:400px;
height;400px;
float:left;
margin:10px;
border: 1px solid black;
}
#footer {
background-color:#8E8E8E;
width:920px;
height:100px;

clear:both; 

}

COLLAPSING;

When an element contain in parent element than you add the float to the child element then container element collapse itself. How to solve them there are many ways to solve these problems. Which we discuss below?

FIRST METHOD: TO ADD THE TAG.

By this method you have to add the empty div tag or other tag you cam add but empty div tag is better. After adding this the parent element automatically expand.

SECOND METHOD: TO ADD OVERFLOW PROPERTY:

In this method you have to add overflow property to the parent element. If you set the auto or hidden value to it the parent element automatically expand and contain float element.

THIRF METHOD: TO USE CLEAR PROPERTY;

In the third method we use the pseudo selector (:after) to solve the problem. We apply class to the element and clear the float property and you can also add the id to the element.

.clear:after{
 content: ".";
 display: block; height: 0;
 clear: both;
 visibility: hidden;} 

CONCLUSION;

You can style the layout with float property  and now you can face all the problems related the float.

RESOLVING CSS CONFLICTS

Hi friends!

Welcome back. Today I came with new topic which really help you a lot which about the css conflict. When you add style to the element but it does not apply on it why. You check it many times for bug but there is no bug in your code. There is concept of css which is conflict many people do not about these basic concepts. Today we talk about them and discuss how to use them.

CSS CONFLICTING;

Two are more styles are applied to the same element.

For example;

P{
Font-size:2em;
Color:red;
}
 P{
Font-size:1.8em;
Color:blue;
}

Now question is that which style applied to the element the answer is simple last one will win. The css contain of three basic concepts such as specificity, inheritance and cascade.

CASCADE;

The cascade rules depend upon the order of your css. The last property applied to the element.

For example;

Body{
Font-family:Helvetica;
 }
 P{
Font-family:Georgia;
}

In the above case all the paragraph change with Georgia font and the Helvetica don’t work on the paragraph because the order of css.

SPECIFICITY;

Specificity defines the rules applied to the element.

If the style does not apply to the element the reason is specificity.

If two selectors are applied to the same element the selector with high specificity wins.

If two selectors have equal specificity the last one wins.

For increasing specifity you can use id selector but the inline style has more specificity than the id selector but for the reason we prefer to the id selector for more specificity.

How to count specificity?

The counting specificity is very easy. The each id is equal to the 100,  the each attribute, class and pseudo-class is equal to the 10 and the each element is equal to the one  .

For example;

 P{
Font-size:1.5em;
Color:red;
}
.main p{
Font-size:2em;
Color:yellow;
}

In the above the example the paragraph with class will win because it has more specificity than the paragraph.

INHERITANCE;

For instance you add the properties to the body it inherited to all other properties which are present in the body such as heading tags, paragraph and other tags present in the body tag.

For example;

Body{
Font-family:Helvetica;
Font-size:1.5em;
}

The above properties applied to the all elements which are present in the body tag.

CONCLUSION;

Now you have understanding of the css conflict and how to use them and take fullest advantage of them. Remember in your prayers and don’t forget to share our post with your friends. THANKS
