How to Create Fixed Layout With CSS


Most important problem which is faced by every new designer is to make or create layout. To create more professional good looking layout you need lots of hard work and practice. For creating layout you must know which type of layout you are creating. it is fixed fluid or responsive which one is this? If you are creating fixed layout you must have understanding of fixed layout. Our layout contain on few things thinking designing and coding. Before making layout you must have knowledge of advantages and disadvantages and the screen resolution of layout. Today I am going to explain these things.

Fixed Width Layout

To create fixed width layout we set particular width to our website. As we set 960px for the screen resolution for 1024*768 and our websites looks better on this screen resolution. We set 760px for the screen resolution of 800*600 the website with 760px looks great on 800*600 resolutions. But now days web designer select 1024*768 resolution and higher.

Advantage of Fixed Layout

  1. First advantage  of fixed layout is this type of layout is easy  to use and you customize it easily.
  2. You don’t need min-width and max-width which are not supported by all browsers


Disadvantages of fixed layout

  1. The devices with smaller screen resolution require horizontal scroll bar according to fixed width of layout.
  2. The small width layout (760px) may not look great on large screen resolution.


Center layout
In fixed layout you need to center the your main wrapper to set the margin:0 auto; on other condition your whole layout move to one corner and it not look great.

Creating fixed layout

Thinking and sketching.
First and important part for creating professional layout to thinking. Think out of box try to think some thing different from other don’t copy the styles of other but  get ideas from others design. After thinking sketch the your design on the paper

Designing
After thinking and sketching your design give it color and design on softwares such as Photoshop and illustrator. It is main part in which you design your ideas and your thinking and give it new shape.

fixed layout

Coding
Now it time to code the design the most difficult part is to design and thinking creative design but if you have good knowledge of language such as html, css, and javascript you can easily code your design without facing any difficulty.

Conclusion
Now friend i think you can design a layout and you have all information which you need to create a fixed layout. Inshallah in the future we will discuss other types of layout. But remember one thing which i forgot to mention above is that first time when you create you make lots of mistake but don't get disappoint try again and again  you will be succeed.

Example 1:
margin: 20px;
for all four sides.

Example 3:
margin: 20px 10px 5px;
The first 20px is for top-margin, the second 10px is for right and left margin and the last 5px is for bottom.
Example 4:

You can set the width, border style and border color for the border by these properties(.border-width, border-style and border-color). You can set the border of all side individually (border-top, border-right, border-bottom, border-left).

Shorthand Border:

Yes you can use the short hand method for border.like this;
border: 3px solid blue;
In the above shorthand property 3px defines the width of border, solid defines the border-style and the final blue which defines the border color.

Padding:

Padding cover the space between the border and element or content. Padding is affected by background color. Padding can be changed individually if you want set the padding of one side you use these properties(padding-top, padding-right, padding-bottom, padding-left)

Again consider box with the height of 200px , top-margin=10px and bottom-margin=10px and the top-padding=10px and bottom-padding=10px .

Formula for calculating Height:

height of box + top-margin + bottom-margin + top-padding + bottom-padding = Total height of box

How To Use CSS Position

css positioning

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 position?


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;
   }

css position

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;
   }
css positioning

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;
  }


css position
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;
   }
css position

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;
   }

css position


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;}

css position


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;
   }
z-index css

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;
   }

css z-index


CONCLUSION

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

How To Use CSS Float Property.


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.

ALSO READ:

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;
}

float property

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;
}



layout


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; 
}

css layout


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.


THIRD 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 Conflicts In CSS

learn css

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
