I'm doing a site and I'm starting with the mobile stylesheet first. But the container-fluid's width isn't the same as the window's width.
What I tried to do to fix this was:
.container-fluid{
width: 105%
}
The problem now is that when I make the window a little smaller, it's still not enough, but when I make the window a little bit bigger, it's TOO MUCH, when I do that a scroll bar appears at the bottom.
100% doesn't work since I already said that it's not the full width of the window.
Here's the entire body from the HTML file:
<body>
<!-- Introduction -->
<div id="introduction" class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<header>
<h1> Mosescu Bogdan Gabriel </h1>
<img id="profilepic" src="profilepic.png" />
<h2> Web Designer | Motion Graphics Artist </h2>
</header>
</div>
</div>
<!-- //Introduction// -->
<div id="about" class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<h1 id="about-title"> Who I am </h1>
</div>
</div>
</body>
and this is the CSS file:
/*Introduction CSS */
#introduction{
background-color: #542437;
color: white;
margin-top: -21px;
}
#introduction header{
text-align: center;
}
#introduction header h1{
font-family: montserrat;
font-weight: bold;
}
#introduction header h2{
font-family: montserrat;
font-weight: normal;
font-size: 1em;
}
#profilepic{
border-radius: 100%;
width: 150px;
height: 150px;
}
/* //Introduction CSS// */
/* About CSS */
#about{
background-color: #f2f2f2;
color: #1a1a1a;
text-align: center;
margin-top: -24px;
}
#about-title{
font-family: montserrat;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 2.25em;
border-bottom: solid 1px black;
}
Bootstrap containers are padded.
.container-fluid {
padding-right:15px;
padding-left:15px;
margin-right:auto;
margin-left:auto
}
You need to remove the padding.
.container-fluid {
padding-right:0;
padding-left:0;
margin-right:auto;
margin-left:auto
}
Edit: This is a bare bones example. If you copy this and paste into a new .html document you'll see no padding on the container. If you then remove the container-fluid
override you'll see padding.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<title></title>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=0">
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
<!-- put your override styles here - AFTER you include Bootstrap -->
<link href="style-mobile.css" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
<style>
/* override Bootstrap's container */
.container-fluid {
padding-right:0;
padding-left:0;
margin-right:auto;
margin-left:auto
}
</style>
<body>
<div class="container-fluid">
This text hits the left side of the viewport.
</div>
</body>
</html>
Edited HTML example to include new css link
@Dagrooms commented: "The best way to do this in Bootstrap 4 is to add px-0
to your container-fluid
div."
This will remove the padding from the left and right of the container, so that it will touch the sides of the browser viewport.
<div class="container-fluid px-0">
This text hits the left side of the viewport.
</div>
