How to align 3 divs side-by-side

Hello.
I need to get out of the habit of using tables and starting
using div's.
I need to align 3 divs in a row the main site layout. One on
the left, one on the right and one in the middle, I have been
trying to make it work for quite a while now and have given up. So,
how would I go about aligning 3 divs side by side?
Thanks in advance,
Perry

Use floats (CSS). There is no one best way but here's a
starting point.
First create a containing wrapper div & give it a width
of say 600 px
(width:600px;)
Create 3 divs, 200 px wide each inside the wrapper div, one
after the other.
Float each div left (float:left;).
Create a 4th div, or just a paragraph (<p></p>)
and make it clear:left.
Place it after the 3rd div and inside the wrapper div. Again
this is just a
start. Once you get this working you can experiment with the
code until you
thoroughly understand what is happening.
If any of these terms/jargon makes you say, "Huh?" you are in
over your head
and should return to Go. Once back at go study CSS and how it
interacts with
HTML before going further.

  • How to align a String value to the right side inside a table column?

    Hi,
    I have a text view inside a table column which is mapped to a string attribute. I need to align the text in the text view to the right hand inside the table column. But its always getting aligned towards the left side. I have tried by setting the <b>hAlign</b> property of Element properties of Text View to <b>right / forced right</b> but still the text is getting aligned to the left side.
    How do I align the String values in Text View towards the right hand side inside a Table Column?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Sayan Ghosh

    Hello Sayan,
    if i do get it right, you are adding an TextView element to a Table Cell. Then you should consider setting aligment within the particular cell. By calling:
    YourCell.setHorizontalAlignment(CellHAlign.RIGHT)
    regards.

  • How can I view two windows side by side?

    I have two windows open in two different tabs, but I want to view them side by side on the screen. Can I do this in Firefox? How?

    You could open a second Firefox window, adjust the sizes of the two windows and align them side by side. (Firefox button > New Tab > New Window '''''OR''''' CTRL+N '''''OR''''' File > New Tab > New Window if using the Menu Bar)
    You could install one of the Add-ons to view multiple tabs at the same time:

  • JLabel with an icon aligned to the right side.

    Hi all,
    I need a JLabel with an Icon aligned to the right but with the text aligned to the left side.
    Is it possible?
    How can I accomplish this?
    Please help me, I've spent almost 2 hours on this.
    Thanks on advance.

    Just so you know, though, you use JLabel.setHorizontalTextPosition to determine where the text is relative to the image:
    JLabel label = new JLabel("Text", new ImageIcon(...), JLabel.CENTER); // For example
    label.setHorizontalTextPostion(JLabel.LEFT);Hope this helps.

  • Floating 3 div tags side by side

    Hello Dreamweavers.
    Im trying ot float 3 div tags side by side. I dont have a problem floating 2. But when I add a 3dr DIV the 2nd DIVS margin is making me confused
    how to get them floatin next to each other. Here is what I have so far.
    Thank you.
    #box_one {
              background-color: #9C9;
              width: 400px;
              height: 400px;
              float: left;
    #box_two {

              height: 400px;
              width: 400px;
              float: right;
              margin-right: 450px;
    #box_three {

    No need to get complex, just float all of the <divs> left and give 'box_two' and 'box_three' a margin-left: 50px;  (see below)
    #box_one {
    float: left;
    background-color: #9C9;

    First center your parent container.
    CSS:
         #wrapper {
              width: 900px; /**adjust width as req'd**/
              margin: 0 auto:
              overflow: hidden; /*to contain floats*/
              border: 1px dotted red; /*for demo purposes*/
    HTML:
         <div id="wrapper">
              Everything else goes inside this container

  • How can i open a few windows or tabs side by side?

    Hi firefox crew!
    Okay, I know how to work the tab groups. But I'd like to be able to open a window(or tab) side by side with one or more others, as often I want to compare a couple sites/web pages. I really would rather be able to easily do this! So I'm wondering:
    is there any way to, say, choose some setting or option/customize to have firefox automatically open a second window (or tab) as a half-window, whilst shrinking the first fullpage down to the other half of the screen (or window)?
    And, even better would be if I could select a few tabs of my choosing at once (eg. by ctrl-clicking each one i want from among the tabs i have open along the tabs bar, say, A, C, E, and F out of all my 7 tabs A-G), and right-click to bring up a context menu, and from there select an option: "open tabs in a grid", and have that work to display (all four of) these tabs side by side.
    (And, theoretically, each successive tab/window opened in this manner would effectively add to the grid, thereby shrinking each one proportionately.)
    Any ideas on how to make this work? Much appreciated!

    OOH, to let you all know (both experts and other newbies who might benefit!)--
    i think i found my answer! :)
    To tile open windows horizontally(side by side), if i right-click on an empty Taskbar area i can choose Tile Windows Horizontally (in Windows XP).
    To tile windows vertically, i can right-click on an empty Taskbar area and click Tile Windows Vertically (in Windows XP) or Show Windows Stacked.

  • I have converted/copied my itunes oto mp3 format to play on my PC. unfortunatly I didi not specify a different folder fro the mp3's. I therefore have itunes side by side with my mp3's all in the same folder. How can I remove the mp3's into another folder.

    I have converted my itunes on my imac to mp3 format so i could play them on my pc. unfortunatly  i did not specify a seperate folder for the mp3's to be sent to once converted.
    i now have itunes and mp3's side by side in the itunes media folder. this has the effect of doubling my library.
    how can i get rid of the mp3's from this folder en mass, other than erasing them one by one, there are 7000!!!

    Click on 'Music' in the iTunes sidebar. Look to see whether you have a 'Kind' column:
    If you haven't, choose 'View Options' from the 'View' menu and check 'Kind':
    Now go to the Music list again and click on the label of the 'Kind' column. This will group all your AACs and MP3s together. Locate the MP3s: click on the top one. Hold the shift key and click on the bottom one to select them all. If you want to save them drag them to a folder on your Desktop. Then hit 'Delete'. IMPORTANT: when promted, choose to have them moved to the Trash, otherwise they will be removed from the list but kept in the actual library.

    You can increase the font size and automatically page view changes. Go to menubar; Reading -> PDF View or Epub Text Size (depending upon the ebook) and increase the size.
