I am designing a webpage where I have set the container width to 100% to cover the entire screen width. Inside this container, I have multiple DIVs arranged in a grid structure with a float: left property and no fixed width, just a margin of 10px.
Is there a way, through either CSS or jQuery, to make these divs automatically adjust their widths so that they fill the entire container and align themselves to fill any gaps based on the screen size, thereby changing the margins accordingly?
Take a look at thirtydot's response in this discussion for a CSS/HTML solution that doesn't require JavaScript and is compatible with all browsers, including IE 6.
Fluid width with equally spaced DIVs

HTML:
<div id="container">
<div class="box1"></div>
<div class="box2"></div>
<div class="box3"></div>
<div class="box4"></div>
<span class="stretch"></span>
</div>
CSS:
#container {
border: 2px dashed #444;
height: 125px;
text-align: justify;
-ms-text-justify: distribute-all-lines;
text-justify: distribute-all-lines;
/* just for demo */
min-width: 612px;
}
.box1, .box2, .box3, .box4 {
width: 150px;
height: 125px;
vertical-align: top;
display: inline-block;
*display: inline;
zoom: 1
}
.stretch {
width: 100%;
display: inline-block;
font-size: 0;
line-height: 0
}
.box1, .box3 {
background: #ccc
}
.box2, .box4 {
background: #0ff
}
Creating layouts with CSS3 has become incredibly simple.
LATEST UPDATE
Incorporated support for MS IE (surprisingly enough...). Uncertain about Firefox compatibility due to recent changes by Mozilla. Unfortunately, I am strapped for time. Any assistance in correcting this would be greatly appreciated...
SECOND UPDATE
Code has been transferred to a snippet
.container {
border: 1px solid black;
display: -webkit-box;
-webkit-box-pack: justify;
-webkit-box-align: center;
display: -moz-box;
-moz-box-pack: justify;
-moz-box-align: center;
display: -ms-flexbox;
-ms-flex-pack: justify;
-ms-flex-align: center;
display: box;
box-pack: justify;
box-align: center;
}
.child {
background-color: red;
}<div class="container">
<div class="child">
Some Content
</div>
<div class="child">
Some Content
</div>
<div class="child">
Some Content
</div>
</div>To achieve this effect using CSS, ensure that all dimensions are specified in percentages (e.g., width, margin, padding).
If you require a specific margin or padding, consider utilizing jQuery for greater control.
$(window).resize(function() {
var $cols = $('.col'),
numCols = $cols.length,
space = 0,
newColWidth = ($('#content').width() / numCols) - space,
newColWidthStr = newColWidth.toString() + "px";
$cols.css('width', newColWidthStr);
}).resize();
