With Zurb foundation version 3, if I include the foundation.css file
I'm able to make grids, etc.
With version 4, if I do everything the same way, it does not work.
What am I missing?
If I do everything the same way
There are new classes to use for grids in V4. You cannot just say four columns but instead specify if the columns are for a large or small view/device. So you need to have small-X or large-X where X is the number of columns a div needs to consume. Here's an example:
<div class="row">
<div class="ten columns centered">
<h1>This grid won't work on V4</h1>
<div class="row">
<div class="four columns">
<div class="panel">
<p>Left panel</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="four columns">
<div class="panel">
<p>Center panel</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="four columns">
<div class="panel">
<p>Right panel</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="ten columns centered">
<h1>But this will...</h1>
<div class="row">
<div class="small-2 large-4 columns">
<div class="panel">
<p>Left panel</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="small-4 large-4 columns">
<div class="panel">
<p>Center panel</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="small-6 large-4 columns">
<div class="panel">
<p>Right panel</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Notice the combination of small and large on a single div. What it tells you is that the Left panel will only be two columns on small devices (mobile phones) and four columns on large devices such as on a desktop. Similarly, the Right panel will be six columns on small devices and four columns on large devices. You can see the difference by playing with the size of your browser.

I am struggling to get the layout sorted using the code below.
<div class="row">
<div class="large-6 columns">
<div class="row collapse">
<label>Contigency</label>
<div class="small-9 columns">
<input type="text" name="contingency">
</div>
<div class="small-3 columns">
<span class="postfix">%</span>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="large-3 columns">
<div class="row collapse">
<label style="text-align:right;">Project Management</label>
<div class="small-2 columns">
<span class="prefix">$</span>
</div>
<div class="small-10 columns">
<input type="text" class="" name="project_management">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="small-12 columns">
<div class="row">
<div class="small-8 columns">
<label for="right-label" class="center inline"><strong>Drawings/Permits/Inspect</strong> Engineered Drawings, Permits, and Inspections Commissioning</label>
</div>
<div class="small-2 columns">
<span class="prefix">$</span>
</div>
<div class="small-2 columns">
<input type="text" name="project_management">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
It produces the following.
I am trying to line up the bottom input with the one above (Project management).
Any ideas where I am going wrong?
Thanks,
John
Okay John,
It's a couple of things, first of all your bottom input is using 4 columns and the top input is only using 3 columns and secondly you are collapsing the gutters in your first row, but not collapsing them in the second.
You have a two rows, and within the top row you have nested smaller rows. You haven't nested any smaller rows in the bottom row that you have created. To get a little mathematical on you, the container for the first dollar sign is actually 1/6th of 1/3rd the screen width wide (or 1/18th), because you've nested a 2/12 column inside a 3/12 column. The second dollar sign is in a column 1/6th the width of the screen because it's in a 2/12 column. The reason that the top dollar sign doesn't fit in the second dollar sign 3 times has to do with extra width added by gutters.
But this will get it looking how you like:
<div class="row">
<div class="large-6 columns">
<div class="row collapse">
<label>Contigency</label>
<div class="small-9 columns">
<input type="text" name="contingency">
</div>
<div class="small-3 columns">
<span class="postfix">%</span>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="large-3 large-offset-3 columns"><!-- add 'large-offset-3' to avoid any weirdness with this lining up in the future -->
<div class="row collapse">
<label style="text-align:right;">Project Management</label>
<div class="small-2 columns">
<span class="prefix">$</span>
</div>
<div class="small-10 columns">
<input type="text" class="" name="project_management">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="large-9 columns"><!-- this row will take up nine columns -->
<div class="row collapse"><!-- collapsing this row will make it line up with the above collapsed row -->
<div class="small-12 columns"><!-- setting this to 12 will have it fill all of the parent 9 columns -->
<label for="right-label" class="center inline"><strong>Drawings/Permits/Inspect</strong> Engineered Drawings, Permits, and Inspections Commissioning</label>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="large-3 columns"><!-- this takes up three columns and essentially matches the code for the the above row -->
<div class="row collapse">
<div class="small-2 columns">
<span class="prefix">$</span>
</div>
<div class="small-10 columns">
<input type="text" name="project_management">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Give that a go, be sure to read the comments I left in the html explaining everything. But basically you need to make sure that your using the same number of columns if you want things to line up, and if you collapse a row, you will need to collapse other rows that you want to line it up with.
I just wanna know the correct class to use for divs..currently my index page content divs look as below:
This is okay for dekstop view, I used class="large-4 columns" for the above. But I want something like below for tablet and mobile view.
How do I achieve this plz?
I TRIED but din't work as i wanted.
<div class="large-4 columns">
<div class="medium-2 columns">
<img src="images/launch-home.png" alt="" height="60px;" />
</div>
<div class="medium-10 columns">
<h1>LAUNCH OF THE XXXX</h1>
XXXXX, a pioneering voluntary industry-wide initiative that is dedicated to the development and advocacy of professional standards, including ethical standards, was launched on 24 September 2014. The event was officiated by both the Governor of Bank Negara Malaysia and Chairman of the Securities Commission Malaysia and was attended by leaders of the financial services industry.

If your settings has 12 total columns it should be like this:
<div class="row">
<div class="medium-12 large-4 columns">
<!--inaugural-->
</div>
<div class="medium-12 large-4 columns">
<!--launch-->
</div>
<div class="medium-12 large-4 columns">
<!--insights-->
</div>
</div>
I think your first tag is not at good place
<div class="row">
<div class="large-12 columns">LARGE VIEW</div>
<div class="medium-4 columns">
<img src="images/launch-home.png" alt="" height="60px;" />
</div>
<div class="medium-8 columns">
<h1>LAUNCH OF THE XXXX</h1>
...
</div>

While Designing website layout using foundation css,if i use grid system as bellow within the div with class row.its giving more space at left and right as in the Image.
The Code I am using is as bellow within the div with class="row"
<div class="row">
<div class="small-2 large-4 columns">small-2 large-4 columns</div>
<div class="small-4 large-4 columns">small-4 large-4 columns</div>
<div class="small-6 large-4 columns">small-6 large-4 columns</div>
</div>
Here I need just 5-7% space both at left and right side.How to achieve this by using foundation?
You can use Centered Columns in Foundation to do this.
Small-1 row takes up 8.3333% so by the below html you can have space of 4.166% on the right and on the left.
<div class="row">
<div class="small-11 small-centered columns">
<div class="row">
<div class="small-2 large-4 columns">small-2 large-4 columns</div>
<div class="small-4 large-4 columns">small-4 large-4 columns</div>
<div class="small-6 large-4 columns">small-6 large-4 columns</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Here is a fiddle-link
If I understood you correctly you want something like this http://jsfiddle.net/Tb9Vg/1/ But it has nothing to do with the Foundation itself.
html:
<div class="wrap">
<div class="row">
<div class="small-2 large-4 columns">small-2 large-4 columns</div>
<div class="small-4 large-4 columns">small-4 large-4 columns</div>
<div class="small-6 large-4 columns">small-6 large-4 columns</div>
</div>
</div>
css:
.wrap{
padding-left:7%;
padding-right:7%;
}
.columns{
height: 500px;
background-color:blue;
}
.row ( margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto; width : 30em;}
The margin-left and margin-right centers your element, and with width property you can set the size of your element as big as you like (30 is just an example). The benefit is that when you resize the screen, it retains distance from both sides.
We need to change the width of class "row" of a foundation as much as we need.thats it we will get space at both left and right side.
I'll try to ask this here, because on Foundation forums I got no answer.
I'm making a mixed layout and I want to use Equalizer to make the first column and the second column the same height. The catch is that the second column is another grid layout. Inside that second grid, Equalizer works like a charm, but between the first and second column it does nothing. I've searched here and there are a lot of people with similar problems, but I did not found a solution for mixed layout, even with simple jQuery functions.
Anyone can help?
Here's the code:
<div class="row">
<div class="large-12 columns">
<div class="row" data-equalizer>
<!-- first column -->
<div class="large-2 small-2 columns">
<div class="panel" data-equalizer-watch>
<!-- here goes an image -->
</div>
</div>
<!-- second column -->
<div class="large-10 small-10 columns" data-equalizer-watch>
<div class="row" data-equalizer>
<div class="large-4 small-12 columns">
<p class="panel" data-equalizer-watch>Text</p>
</div>
<div class="large-4 small-12 columns">
<p class="panel" data-equalizer-watch>Text</p>
</div>
<div class="large-4 small-12 columns">
<p class="panel" data-equalizer-watch>Text</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="large-12 small-12 columns">
<p class="panel">Longer text</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row" data-equalizer>
<div class="large-4 small-12 columns">
<p class="panel" data-equalizer-watch>Text</p>
</div>
<div class="large-4 small-12 columns">
<p class="panel" data-equalizer-watch>Text</p>
</div>
<div class="large-4 small-12 columns">
<p class="panel" data-equalizer-watch>Text</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="large-12 small-12 columns">
<p class="panel">Longer text</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
I checked on version 5.2.2: you just cannot do this.
I looked at Foundation foundation.equalizer.js file,
this function is simply not suited for equalize an equalizer inside an equalizer.
In 5.2.2 version, at line 30, you can see how it select elements to equalize:
vals = equalizer.find('[' + this.attr_name() + '-watch]:visible')
There is no dinstinction between dom levels, it catches every data-equalizer-watch without looking for any data-equalizer inside a data-equalizer
Here is my form:
<form>
<div class="row">
<div class="small-12 medium-6 small-centered columns">
<div class="row">
<div class="medium-3 columns">
<label for="right-label" class="right inline">Username:</label>
</div>
<div class="medium-9 columns">
<input type="text" id="right-label" placeholder="Username">
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="medium-3 columns">
<label for="right-label" class="right inline">Password:</label>
</div>
<div class="medium-9 columns">
<input type="text" id="right-label" placeholder="Password">
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="columns">
<input id="checkbox1" type="checkbox" class="right"><label for="checkbox1" class="right">Remember Me</label>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="columns">
<input type="submit" class="button right" value="Log In">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
I have two questions:
The username and password labels sit to the left of the inputs using the right class, how can I switch this off when the screen size is small? I would like the labels to be centered at this break point.
I would like the button to be it's regular size apart from on small, where it should expand to fill the row. how can I do this?
Visibility classes let you show or hide elements based on screen size or device orientation. You can use visibility classes to control which elements users see depending on their browsing environment.
<p class="panel">
<strong class="show-for-small-only">This text is shown only on a small screen.</strong>
<strong class="show-for-medium-up">This text is shown on medium screens and up.</strong>
<strong class="show-for-medium-only">This text is shown only on a medium screen.</strong>
<strong class="show-for-large-up">This text is shown on large screens and up.</strong>
<strong class="show-for-large-only">This text is shown only on a large screen.</strong>
<strong class="show-for-xlarge-up">This text is shown on xlarge screens and up.</strong>
<strong class="show-for-xlarge-only">This text is shown only on an xlarge screen.</strong>
<strong class="show-for-xxlarge-up">This text is shown on xxlarge screens and up.</strong>
