Text Wrapping around an absolute positioned div

问题:

I know there are a few questions about similar topics but they mostly amount to floating the div/image. I need to have the image(and div) positioned absolutely (off to the right) but I simply want the text flow around it. It works if I float the div but then I can't position it where I want. As it is the text just flows behind the picture.

    <div class="post">
            <div class="picture">
  <a href="/user/1" title="View user profile."><img src="http://www.neatktp.com/sites/default/files/photos/BlankPortrait.jpg" alt="neatktp&#039;s picture" title="neatktp&#039;s picture"  /></a></div>
      <span class='print-link'></span><p>BlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlah.</p>
<p>BlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlahBlah.</p>
        </div>

Is an example of the HTML

with the CSS being:

    .picture img {
        background: #fff;
        border: 1px #ddd solid;
        padding: 2px;
        float: right;
}

.post .picture {
    display: block;
    height: auto;
    position: absolute;
    right: -10px;
    top: -10px;
    width: auto;
}

.post {
    border: 1px solid #FFF;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #e8ebec;
    padding: 37px 22px 11px;
    position: relative;
    z-index: 4;
}

It's a Drupal theme so none of this code is mine, it's just that it's not fully working when it comes to putting a picture there.

回答1:

Absolute positioning takes the element out of the normal document flow, and therefore it does not interact with the other elements. Perhaps you should revist how to position it using float instead, and ask about it here on Stack Overflow if you get stuck :)

I know this is an older question but I came across it looking to do what I believe you were trying to. I've made a solution using the :before CSS selector, so it's not great with ie6-7 but everywhere else you should be good.

Basically, putting my image in a div I can then add a long thing float block before hand to bump it down and the text wraps merrily around it!

img {
  float:right;  
  clear:both;
  width: 50% ;
  margin: 30px -50px 10px 10px ;
}
.rightimage:before {
  content: '' ;
  display:block;
  float: right;
  height: 200px;

}

When you position a div absolutely, you're effectively taking it out of the document flow, so the other elements will act as if it's not there.

To get around this, you can instead use margins:

.myDivparent
{
   float: left;
   background: #f00;
}

.myDivhascontent
{
   margin-left: 10px; /*right, bottom, top, whichever you need*/
}

Hopefully that will do the trick :)

回答4:

As mentioned by @Kyle Sevenoaks, you are taking absolute positioned content out of the document flow.

As far as I can see, the only way to have the parent div wrap the absolute positioned contents, is to use javascript to set the width and height on each change.

回答5:

In my opinon, the "Absolute" trait is poorly named, because its position is actually relative to the first parent whos position is not static

<div class="floated">
 <div style="position: relative;">
  <div class="AbsoluteContent">
    stuff
  </div>
 </div>
</div>

回答6:

I think the best option is to add an additional div after the float content, but still inside the parent to clear previous styles.

<div class="clear"></div>

And CSS:

.clear
{clear:both;}

回答7:

Absolute positioning does not let you wrap text. You have to use float and position using margin or padding.

回答8:

Here's a trick that might work for some:

if you have a container packed with a lot of objects, and you want that positioned object to appear up high in certain cases, and down lower in other cases (various screen sizes for example), then just intersperse copies of the object multiple times in your html, either inline(-block), or with float, and then display:none the items you dont want to see according to the conditions you need.

Here is a JSFiddle to show exactly what I mean: JSFiddle of right positioning high and low

Note: I added color only for effect. Except for the class names, the subject-1 and subject-2 divs are otherwise exact copies of each other.

There is an easy fix to this problem. It's using white-space: nowrap;

<div class="position:relative">
 <div style="position: absolute;top: 100%; left:0;">
  <div style="white-space:nowrap; width: 100%;">
    stuff
  </div>
 </div>
</div>

For example I was making a dropdown menu for a navigation so the setup I was using is

<ul class="submenu" style="position:absolute; z-index:99;">
   <li style="width:100%; display:block;">
      <a href="#" style="display: block;width: 100%;white-space: nowrap;">Dropdown link here</a>
   </li>
<ul>

Also if you still can't figure it out check out the dropdowns on bootstrap templates which you can google. Then find out how they work because they are using position absolute and getting the text to take up 100% width without wrapping the text.
