I have a regular layout that looks that this:
This layout is done using CSS floats.
When I switch to mobile, I want my layout to do this:
That is, I want my sidebar to be below the content. I can do this using absolute positioning, but I was wondering, is there a way to do this using floats so that if my content changes the sidebar will adjust for the height difference?
Here's how I would do it. The DIVs are floated on your desktop version, but displayed on top of eachother (default block
display) on mobile.
CSS:
#sidebar {
float: left;
width: 30%;
}
#content {
float: right;
width: 70%;
}
.mobile #sidebar,
.mobile #content {
float: none;
display: block;
margin-bottom: 15px;
}
Standard HTML:
<body>
<div id="content">
...
</div>
<div id="sidebar">
...
</div>
</body>
Mobile HTML:
<body class="mobile">
<div id="content">
...
</div>
<div id="sidebar">
...
</div>
</body>
Media query, flex
container and its order
property should do the trick:
@media(max-width:767px) {
.container {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
.content {
order: 1;
}
.sidebar {
order: 2;
}
}
Make sure to replace max-width
value with your own mobile breakpoint.
Browser support for flex is also pretty decent now.
