【CSS】创建布局

 随着对分离HTML元素的语义重要性与其表现的影响的不断强调，CSS在HTML5元素布局方面的作用越来越重要。

1. 定位内容

控制内容最简单的方式就是通过定位，这允许你使用浏览器改变元素的布局方式。

 

1.1 设置定位类型

position 属性设置了元素的定位方法。

position 属性的不同值指定了元素定位所针对的不同元素。使用 top、bottom、left 和 right 属性设置元素的偏移量的时候，指的是相对与 position 属性指定的元素的偏移量。

在上面的代码中，为页面添加了一个小脚本，它可以基于被按下的按钮改变img元素的position属性的值。这里将left属性设置为150px，将top属性设置为5px，意思是只要position值不设为static，img元素就将沿水平轴偏移150像素，沿垂直轴偏移15像素。下图展示了 position 值从static到relative的变化。

relative值为元素应用top、bottom、left和 right属性，相对于 static 值确定的位置重新定位元素。从图中可以看到，left属性和top属性的取值引起img元素向右、向下移动。

absolute值根据position值不是static的最近祖先元素的位置来定位元素。在这个示例中不存在这样的元素，也就是说元素是相对于body元素定位的，如下图所示：

注意一下，如果滚动浏览器页面，img元素会跟剩余的内容一起移动。可以将这个情况跟fixed值比较一下，如下图就是fixed值定位效果：

使用fixed值，元素是相对于浏览器窗口定位的。也就是说元素始终占据同样的位置，无论剩余内容是否向上向下滚动。

 

1.2 设置元素的层叠顺序

z-index 属性指定元素显示的层叠顺序。

z-index 属性的值是数值，且允许取负值。值越小，在层叠顺序中就越靠后。这个属性只有在元素重叠的情况下才会派上用场。

此例中，创建了两个固位置的img元素，设置了它们top 和left 值使两者部分图像重叠。id值为apple的img元素的z-index值比id值为banana元素的z-index值要大，因此苹果图像显示在香蕉图像上面。

z-index 属性的默认值是0，因此浏览器默认将图像显示在p元素上。

 

2. 创建多列布局

多列特性允许在多个垂直列中布局内容，跟报纸的排版方式类似。

    There are lots of different kinds of fruit - there are over 500 varieties of banana alone.
    By the time we add the countless types of apples, oranges, and other well-know fruit, we are faced with thousands of choices.

    One of the most interesting aspects of fruit is the variety available in each country.
    I live near London, in an area which is know for its apples.

    When travelling Asia, I was struck by how many different kinds of banana were available
    - many of which had unique flavours and which were only available within a small region.

    And, of course, there are fruits which are unique
    - I am put in mind of the durian, which is widely consumed in SE Asia and is know as the "king of fruits".
    The durian is largely unknow in Europe and the USA
    - if it is know at all, it is for the overwhelming smell, which is compared to a combination of almonds,
    rotten onions and gym socks.

PS:暂发现IE、Edge、Opera浏览器显示有效，火狐和谷歌不支持。

从上图可以看出，div元素中的内容从一列流向另一列，跟报纸中排版很像。在这个例子中，为img元素应用了float属性，这样div元素中的文本内容就可以流畅地环绕在图像周围。

上面的示例中使用了column-count属性将页面布局分为三列。如果窗口大小调整，浏览器会自行调整宽度，从而保留布局中的列数。另一种方法是指定列宽度。

如果应用column-width 属性，浏览器会通过添加或者删除列数维持指定宽度。

 

3. 创建弹性盒布局

弹性盒布局（也称伸缩盒）在CSS3中得到了进一步加强，为display属性添加了一个新值（flexbox），并定义了其他几个属性。使用弹性布局可以创建对浏览器窗口调整响应良好的流动页面。这是通过在包含元素之间分配容器块中未使用的空间来实现的。规范为弹性布局定义了如下新属性：

* flex-align

* flex-direction

* flex-order

* flex-pack

不过建议规范和实现之间还有差异，顶定义一下弹性盒要解决的问题。下面代码展示了一个有问题的简单布局。

在上面代码中，div元素包含了三个p元素。将p元素显示在水平行中，用float属性很容易就能做到这一点。

这里能使用弹性盒解决的问题是处理页面上p元素右边的空间块。解决这个问题有很多方式。在这个例子中，可以使用百分比宽度，但弹性盒解决方案更优雅，页面看起来流动性也会好很多。下表列出了实现弹性盒核心功能的三个 -webkit 属性（简单起见，表中省略了-webkit前缀）：

 

3.1 创建简单的弹性盒

可以使用 display属性创建弹性盒。标准值是 flexbox， 不过在标准完成和实现之前，必须使用 -webkit-box 。 使用 box-flex 属性告诉浏览器如何分配元素之间的未使用空间。 display 属性的新值和 box-flex 属性如下面代码所示：

display 属性会应用到弹性盒容器。弹性盒容器是具有多余空间，且想对其中的内容应用弹性布局的元素。box-flex 属性会应用到弹性盒容器内的元素，告诉浏览器当容器大小改变时哪些元素的尺寸是弹性的。在这个例子中，选择了id值为second的p元素。

PS:从p元素样式声明中删除了float属性。可伸缩元素不能包含浮动元素。

可以从下图看出浏览器如何伸缩选择元素的尺寸：

 

3.2 伸缩多个元素

应用box-flex 告诉浏览器伸缩多个元素的尺寸。设置的值决定了浏览器分配空间的比例。修改前面例子的CCS文件如下：

<span style="color: #0000ff;"></span><span style="color: #800000;">style</span><span style="color: #0000ff;">></span></span>

 这里将box-flex 属性应用到了id值为first的p元素。此处box-flex属性的值是3，意思是浏览器为其分部的多余空间是为id值为second的p元素的三倍。当创建此类比例时，指的是元素的可伸缩性。只是使用这个比例来分配多余的空间，或者减少元素的尺寸，而不是改变它的首选尺寸。从下图可以看到这个比例时怎么应用到元素的。

 

3.3 处理垂直空间

box-align 属性告诉浏览器如何处理多余的垂直空间。默认情况下垂直拉伸元素以填充多余的空间。上面的例子就是这种情况，前两个p元素的尺寸是调整过的，内容下面多出了空的空间。

下面的代码展示了元素样式变为应用box-align属性。注意这个属性应用到可伸缩容器上，而不是内容元素。

<span style="color: #800000;">    p </span>{<span style="color: #ff0000;">
        width</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> 150px</span>;<span style="color: #ff0000;">
        border</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> medium double green</span>;<span style="color: #ff0000;">
        background-color</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> lightgray</span>;<span style="color: #ff0000;">
        margin</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> 2px</span>;
    }<span style="color: #800000;">
    #container</span>{<span style="color: #ff0000;">
        display</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> -webkit-box</span>;<span style="color: #ff0000;">
        -webkit-box-direction</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> reverse</span>;<span style="background-color: #ffff99;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">
        -webkit-box-align</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> end</span>;</strong></span>
    }<span style="color: #800000;">
    #first </span>{<span style="color: #ff0000;"> -webkit-box-flex</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> 3</span>;}<span style="color: #800000;">
    #second </span>{<span style="color: #ff0000;">-webkit-box-flex</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> 1</span>;}

此例中，使用了 end 值，这代表内容元素会沿着容器元素的底边放置，垂直方向任何多余的空间都会显示到内容元素上方。其呈现效果如下图所示：

 

3.4 处理最大尺寸

弹性盒伸缩时不会超过内容元素的最大尺寸。如果存在多余空间，浏览器会伸展元素，知道达到最大允许尺寸。box-pack属性定义了在所有的可伸缩元素均可达到最大尺寸的情况下，多余空间仍未分配完毕时应该如何处理。

修改前面示例的CSS文件如下：

<span style="color: #800000;">p </span>{<span style="color: #ff0000;">
    width</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> 150px</span>;<span style="background-color: #ffff99;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">
    max-width</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> 250px</span>;</strong></span><span style="color: #ff0000;">
    border</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> medium double green</span>;<span style="color: #ff0000;">
    background-color</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> lightgray</span>;<span style="color: #ff0000;">
    margin</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> 2px</span>;
}<span style="color: #800000;">
#container</span>{<span style="color: #ff0000;">
    display</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> -webkit-box</span>;<span style="color: #ff0000;">
    -webkit-box-direction</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> reverse</span>;<span style="color: #ff0000;">
    -webkit-box-align</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> end</span>;<span style="background-color: #ffff99;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">
    -webkit-box-pack</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> justify</span>;</strong></span>
}<span style="color: #800000;">
#first </span>{<span style="color: #ff0000;"> -webkit-box-flex</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> 3</span>;}<span style="color: #800000;">
#second </span>{<span style="color: #ff0000;">-webkit-box-flex</span>:<span style="color: #0000ff;"> 1</span>;}

这属性的效果如下图所示。在可伸缩p元素达到最大宽度后，浏览器开始在元素之间分配多余空间。注意，多余空间只是分配到元素与元素之间，第一个元素之前或者最后一个元素之后都没有分配。

4. 创建表格布局

使用 table 元素如此普遍的原因是它解决了一种常见的布局问题：创建承载内容的简单网格。幸好，我们可以使用CCS表格布局特性来设置页面布局，这很像使用 table 元素，但不会破坏语义重要性。创建CSS表格布局使用display属性。下表列出了跟这个特性相关的值。表中的每个值都与一个HTML元素对应。

其中几个值的用法如下面代码所示：

<span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #ff00ff;">DOCTYPE html</span><span style="color: #0000ff;">></span>
<span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #800000;">html </span><span style="color: #ff0000;">lang</span><span style="color: #0000ff;">="en"</span><span style="color: #0000ff;">></span>

            There are lots of different kinds of fruit - there are over 500 varieties of banana alone.

CSS表格布局的一个优点是自动调整单元格大小，因此，行是由该行中内容最高的单元格决定的，列是由该列中内容最宽的单元格决定的，这从上图也能看出来。
