10.1 Definition of "containing block

The position and size of an element's box(es) are sometimes computed relative to a certain rectangle, called the containing block of the element. The containing block of an element is defined as follows:

  1. The containing block (called the initial containing block) in which the root element lives is chosen by the user agent.
  2. For other elements, unless the element is absolutely positioned, the containing block is formed by the content edge of the nearest block-level ancestor box.
  3. If the element has 'position: fixed', the containing block is established by the viewport.
  4. If the element has 'position: absolute', the containing block is established by the nearest ancestor with a 'position' other than 'static', in the following way:
    1. In the case that the ancestor is block-level, the containing block is formed by the padding edge of the ancestor.
    2. In the case that the ancestor is inline-level, the containing block depends on the 'direction' property of the ancestor:
      1. If the 'direction' is 'ltr', the top and left of the containing block are the top and left content edges of the first box generated by the ancestor, and the bottom and right are the bottom and right content edges of the last box of the ancestor.
      2. If the 'direction' is 'rtl', the top and right are the top and right edges of the first box generated by the ancestor, and the bottom and left are the bottom and left content edges of the last box of the ancestor.

    If there is no such ancestor, the content edge of the root element's box establishes the containing block.

Example(s):

With no positioning, the containing blocks (C.B.) in the following document:

<HTML>
 <HEAD>
 <TITLE>Illustration of containing blocks</TITLE>
 </HEAD>
 <BODY id="body">
 <DIV id="div1">
 <P id="p1">This is text in the first paragraph...</P>
 <P id="p2">This is text <EM id="em1"> in the 
 <STRONG id="strong1">second</STRONG> paragraph.</EM></P>
 </DIV>
 </BODY>
</HTML>

are established as follows:

For box generated by C.B. is established by
bodyinitial C.B. (UA-dependent)
div1body
p1div1
p2div1
em1p2
strong1p2

If we position "div1":

 #div1 { position: absolute; left: 50px; top: 50px }

its containing block is no longer "body"; it becomes the initial containing block (since there are no other positioned ancestor boxes).

If we position "em1" as well:

 #div1 { position: absolute; left: 50px; top: 50px }
 #em1 { position: absolute; left: 100px; top: 100px }

the table of containing blocks becomes:

For box generated by C.B. is established by
bodyinitial C.B.
div1initial C.B.
p1div1
p2div1
em1div1
strong1em1

By positioning "em1", its containing block becomes the nearest positioned ancestor box (i.e., that generated by "div1").

10.2 Content width: the 'width' property

'width'
Value:  <length> | <percentage> | auto | inherit
Initial:  auto
Applies to:  all elements but non-replaced inline elements, table rows, and row groups
Inherited:  no
Percentages:  refer to width of containing block
Media:  visual

This property specifies the content width of boxes generated by block-level and replaced elements.

This property does not apply to non-replaced inline-level elements. The width of a non-replaced inline element's boxes is that of the rendered content within them (before any relative offset of children). Recall that inline boxes flow into line boxes. The width of line boxes is given by the their containing block, but may be shorted by the presence of floats.

The width of a replaced element's box is intrinsic and may be scaled by the user agent if the value of this property is different than 'auto'.

Values have the following meanings:

<length>
Specifies a fixed width.
<percentage>
Specifies a percentage width. The percentage is calculated with respect to the width of the generated box's containing block.
auto
The width depends on the values of other properties. See the sections below.

Negative values for 'width' are illegal.

Example(s):

For example, the following rule fixes the content width of paragraphs at 100 pixels:

P { width: 100px }

10.3 Computing widths and margins

The computed values of an element's 'width', 'margin-left', 'margin-right', 'left' and 'right' properties depend on the type of box generated and on each other. In principle, the computed values are the same as the specified values, with 'auto' replaced by some suitable value, but there are exceptions. The following situations need to be distinguished:

  1. inline, non-replaced elements
  2. inline, replaced elements
  3. block-level, non-replaced elements in normal flow
  4. block-level, replaced elements in normal flow
  5. floating, non-replaced elements
  6. floating, replaced elements
  7. absolutely positioned, non-replaced elements
  8. absolutely positioned, replaced elements

Points 1-6 include relative positioning.

10.3.1 Inline, non-replaced elements

The 'width' property does not apply. A specified value of 'auto' for 'left', 'right', 'margin-left' or 'margin-right' becomes a computed value of '0'.

10.3.2 Inline, replaced elements

A specified value of 'auto' for 'left', 'right', 'margin-left' or 'margin-right' becomes a computed value of '0'. A specified value of 'auto' for 'width' gives the element's intrinsic width as the computed value.

10.3.3 Block-level, non-replaced elements in normal flow

If 'left' or 'right' are given as 'auto', their computed value is 0. The following constraints must hold between the other properties:

'margin-left' + 'border-left-width' + 'padding-left' + 'width' + 'padding-right' + 'border-right-width' + 'margin-right' = width of containing block

(If the border style is 'none', use '0' as the border width.) If all of the above have a specified value other than 'auto', the values are said to be "over-constrained" and one of the computed values will have to be different from its specified value. If the 'direction' property has the value 'ltr', the specified value of 'margin-right' is ignored and the value is computed so as to make the equality true. If the value of 'direction' is 'ltr', this happens to 'margin-left' instead.

If there is exactly one value specified as 'auto', its computed value follows from the equality.

If 'width' is set to 'auto', any other 'auto' values become '0' and 'width' follows from the resulting equality.

If both 'margin-left' and 'margin-right' are 'auto', their computed values are equal.

10.3.4 Block-level, replaced elements in normal flow

If 'left' or 'right' are 'auto', their computed value is 0. If 'width' is specified as 'auto', its value is the element's intrinsic width. If one of the margins is 'auto', its computed value is given by the constraints above. Furthermore, if both margins are 'auto', their computed values are equal.

10.3.5 Floating, non-replaced elements

If 'left', 'right', 'width', 'margin-left', or 'margin-right' are specified as 'auto', their computed value is '0'.

10.3.6 Floating, replaced elements

If 'left', 'right', 'margin-left' or 'margin-right' are specified as 'auto', their computed value is '0'. If 'width' is 'auto', its value is the element's intrinsic width.

10.3.7 Absolutely positioned, non-replaced elements

The constraint that determines the computed values for these elements is:

'left' + 'margin-left' + 'border-left-width' + 'padding-left' + 'width' + 'padding-right' + 'border-right-width' + 'margin-right' + 'right' = width of containing block

(If the border style is 'none', use '0' as the border width.) The solution to this constraint is reached through a number of substitutions in the following order:

  1. If 'left' has the value 'auto' while 'direction' is 'ltr', replace 'auto' with the distance from the left edge of the containing block to the left margin edge of a hypothetical box that would have been the first box of the element if its 'position' property had been 'static'. (But rather than actually computing that box, user agents are free to make a guess at its probable position.) The value is negative if the hypothetical box is to the left of the containing block.
  2. If 'right' has the value 'auto' while 'direction' is 'rtl', replace 'auto' with the distance from the right edge of the containing block to the right margin edge of the same hypothetical box as above. The value is positive if the hypothetical box is to the left of the containing block's edge.
  3. If 'width' is 'auto', replace any remaining 'auto' for 'left' or 'right' with '0'.
  4. If 'left', 'right' or 'width' are (still) 'auto', replace any 'auto' on 'margin-left' or 'margin-right' with '0'.
  5. If at this point both 'margin-left' and 'margin-right' are still 'auto', solve the equation under the extra constraint that the two margins must get equal values.
  6. If at this point there is only one 'auto' left, solve the equation for that value.
  7. If at this point the values are over-constrained, ignore the value for either 'left' (in case 'direction' is 'rtl') or 'right' (in case 'direction' is 'ltr') and solve for that value.

10.3.8 Absolutely positioned, replaced elements

This situation is similar to the previous one, except that the element has an intrinsic width. The sequence of substitutions is now:

  1. If 'width' is 'auto', substitute the element's intrinsic width.
  2. If 'left' has the value 'auto' while 'direction' is 'ltr', replace 'auto' with the distance from the left edge of the containing block to the left margin edge of a hypothetical box that would have been the first box of the element if its 'position' property had been 'static'. (But rather than actually computing that box, user agents are free to make a guess at its probable position.) The value is negative if the hypothetical box is to the left of the containing block.
  3. If 'right' has the value 'auto' while 'direction' is 'rtl', replace 'auto' with the distance from the right edge of the containing block to the right margin edge of the same hypothetical box as above. The value is positive if the hypothetical box is to the left of the containing block's edge.
  4. If 'left' or 'right' are 'auto', replace any 'auto' on 'margin-left' or 'margin-right' with '0'.
  5. If at this point both 'margin-left' and 'margin-right' are still 'auto', solve the equation under the extra constraint that the two margins must get equal values.
  6. If at this point there is only one 'auto' left, solve the equation for that value.
  7. If at this point the values are over-constrained, ignore the value for either 'left' (in case 'direction' is 'rtl') or 'right' (in case 'direction' is 'ltr') and solve for that value.

10.4 Minimum and maximum widths: 'min-width' and 'max-width'

'min-width'
Value:  <length> | <percentage> | inherit
Initial:  UA dependent
Applies to:  all elements except non-replaced inline elements and table elements
Inherited:  no
Percentages:  refer to width of containing block
Media:  visual
'max-width'
Value:  <length> | <percentage> | none | inherit
Initial:  none
Applies to:  all elements except non-replaced inline elements and table elements
Inherited:  no
Percentages:  refer to width of containing block
Media:  visual

These two properties allow authors to constrain box widths to a certain range. Values have the following meanings:

<length>
Specifies a fixed minimum or maximum computed width.
<percentage>
Specifies a percentage for determining the computed value. The percentage is calculated with respect to the width of the generated box's containing block.
none
(Only on 'max-width') No limit on the width of the box.

The following algorithm describes how the two properties influence the computed value of the 'width' property:

  1. The width is computed (without 'min-width' and 'max-width') following the rules under "Computing widths and margins above.
  2. If the computed value of 'min-width' is greater than the value of 'max-width', 'max-width' is set to the value of 'min-width'.
  3. If the computed width is greater than 'max-width', the rules above are applied again, but this time using the value of 'max-width' as the specified value for 'width'.
  4. If the computed width is smaller than 'min-width', the rules above are applied again, but this time using the value of 'min-width' as the specified value for 'width'.

The user agent may define a non-negative minimum value for the 'min-width' property, which may vary from element to element and even depend on other properties. If 'min-width' goes below this limit, either because it was set explicitly, or because it was 'auto' and the rules below would make it too small, the user agent may use the minimum value as the computed value.

10.5 Content height: the 'height' property

'height'
Value:  <length> | <percentage> | auto | inherit
Initial:  auto
Applies to:  all elements but non-replaced inline elements, table columns, and column groups
Inherited:  no
Percentages:  see prose
Media:  visual

This property specifies the content height of boxes generated by block-level and replaced elements.

This property does not apply to non-replaced inline-level elements. The height of a non-replaced inline element's boxes is given by the element's (possibly inherited) 'line-height' value.

Values have the following meanings:

<length>
Specifies a fixed height.
<percentage>
Specifies a percentage height. The percentage is calculated with respect to the height of the generated box's containing block. If the height of the containing block is not specified explicitly (i.e., it depends on content height), the value is interpreted like 'auto'.
auto
The height depends on the values of other properties. See the prose below.

Negative values for 'height' are illegal.

Example(s):

For example, the following rule fixes the height of paragraphs to 100 pixels:

P { height: 100px }

Paragraphs that require more than 100 pixels of height will overflow according to the 'overflow' property.

10.6 Computing heights and margins

For computing the values of 'top', 'margin-top', 'height', 'margin-bottom', and 'bottom' a distinction must be made between various kinds of boxes:

  1. inline, non-replaced elements
  2. inline, replaced elements
  3. block-level, non-replaced elements in normal flow
  4. block-level, replaced elements in normal flow
  5. floating, non-replaced elements
  6. floating, replaced elements
  7. absolutely positioned, non-replaced elements
  8. absolutely positioned, replaced elements

Points 1-6 include relative positioning.

10.6.1 Inline, non-replaced elements

If 'top', 'bottom', 'margin-top', or 'margin-bottom' are 'auto', their computed value is 0. The 'height' property doesn't apply, but the height of the box is given by the 'line-height' property.

10.6.2 Inline, replaced elements block-level, replaced elements in normal flow, and floating, replaced elements

If 'top', 'bottom', 'margin-top', or 'margin-bottom' are 'auto', their computed value is 0. If 'height' is 'auto', the computed value is the intrinsic height.

10.6.3 Block-level, non-replaced elements in normal flow, and floating, non-replaced elements

If 'top', 'bottom', 'margin-top', or 'margin-bottom' are 'auto', their computed value is 0. If 'height' is 'auto', the height depends on whether the element has any block-level children. If it only has inline-level children, the height is from the top of the topmost line box to the bottom of the bottommost line box. If it has block-level children, it is the distance from the top border-edge of the topmost block-level child box, to the bottom border-edge of the bottommost block-level child box. Only children in the normal flow are taken into account (i.e., floating boxes and absolutely positioned boxes are ignored, and relatively positioned boxes are considered without their offset). Note that the child box may be an anonymous box.

10.6.4 Absolutely positioned, non-replaced elements

For absolutely positioned elements, the vertical dimensions must satisfy this constraint:

'top' + 'margin-top' + 'border-top-width' + 'padding-top' + 'height' + 'padding-bottom' + 'border-bottom-width' + 'margin-bottom' + 'bottom' = height of containing block

(If the border style is 'none', use '0' as the border width.) The solution to this constraint is reached through a number of substitutions in the following order:

  1. If 'top' has the value 'auto' replace it with the distance from the top edge of the containing block to the top margin edge of a hypothetical box that would have been the first box of the element if its 'position' property had been 'static'. (But rather than actually computing that box, user agents are free to make a guess at its probable position.) The value is negative if the hypothetical box is above the containing block.
  2. If both 'height' and 'bottom' are 'auto', replace 'bottom' with 0.
  3. If 'bottom' or 'height' are (still) 'auto', replace any 'auto' on 'margin-top' or 'margin-bottom' with '0'.
  4. If at this point both 'margin-top' and 'margin-bottom' are still 'auto', solve the equation under the extra constraint that the two margins must get equal values.
  5. If at this point there is only one 'auto' left, solve the equation for that value.
  6. If at this point the values are over-constrained, ignore the value for 'bottom' and solve for that value.

10.6.5 Absolutely positioned, replaced elements

This situation is similar to the previous one, except that the element has an intrinsic height. The sequence of substitutions is now:

  1. If 'height' is 'auto', substitute the element's intrinsic height.
  2. If 'top' has the value 'auto', replace it with the distance from the top edge of the containing block to the top margin edge of a hypothetical box that would have been the first box of the element if its 'position' property had been 'static'. (But rather than actually computing that box, user agents are free to make a guess at its probable position.) The value is negative if the hypothetical box is above the containing block.
  3. If 'bottom' is 'auto', replace any 'auto' on 'margin-top' or 'margin-bottom' with '0'.
  4. If at this point both 'margin-top' and 'margin-bottom' are still 'auto', solve the equation under the extra constraint that the two margins must get equal values.
  5. If at this point there is only one 'auto' left, solve the equation for that value.
  6. If at this point the values are over-constrained, ignore the value for 'bottom' and solve for that value.

10.7 Minimum and maximum heights: 'min-height' and 'max-height'

It is sometimes useful to constrain the height of elements to a certain range. Two properties offer this functionality:

'min-height'
Value:  <length> | <percentage> | inherit
Initial:  0
Applies to:  all elements except non-replaced inline elements and table elements
Inherited:  no
Percentages:  refer to height of containing block
Media:  visual
'max-height'
Value:  <length> | <percentage> | none | inherit
Initial:  none
Applies to:  all elements except non-replaced inline elements and table elements
Inherited:  no
Percentages:  refer to height of containing block
Media:  visual

These two properties allow authors to constrain box heights to a certain range. Values have the following meanings:

<length>
Specifies a fixed minimum or maximum computed height.
<percentage>
Specifies a percentage for determining the computed value. The percentage is calculated with respect to the height of the generated box's containing block. If the height of the containing block is not specified explicitly (i.e., it depends on content height), the percentage value is interpreted like 'auto'.
none
(Only on 'max-height') No limit on the height of the box.

The following algorithm describes how the two properties influence the computed value of the 'height' property:

  1. The height is computed (without 'min-height' and 'max-height') following the rules under "Computing heights and margins above.
  2. If the computed value of 'min-height' is greater than the value of 'max-height', 'max-height' is set to the value of 'min-height'.
  3. If the computed height is greater than 'max-height', the rules above are applied again, but this time using the value of 'max-height' as the specified value for 'height'.
  4. If the computed height is smaller than 'min-height', the rules above are applied again, but this time using the value of 'min-height' as the specified value for 'height'.

10.8 Line height calculations: the 'line-height' and 'vertical-align' properties

As described in the section on inline formatting contexts, user agents flow inline boxes into a vertical stack of line boxes. The height of a line box is determined as follows:

  1. The height of each inline box in the line box is calculated (see "Computing heights and margins and the 'line-height' property).
  2. The inline boxes are aligned vertically according to their 'vertical-align' property.
  3. The line box height is the distance between the uppermost box top and the lowermost box bottom.

Empty inline elements generate empty inline boxes, but these boxes still have margins, padding, borders and a line height, and thus influence these calculations just like elements with content.

Note that if all the boxes in the line box are aligned along their bottoms, the line box will be exactly the height of the tallest box. If, however, the boxes are aligned along a common baseline, the line box top and bottom may not touch the top and bottom of the tallest box.

10.8.1 Leading and half-leading

Since the height of an inline box may be different from the font size of text in the box (e.g., 'line-height' > 1em), there may be space above and below rendered glyphs. The difference between the font size and the computed value of 'line-height' is called the leading. Half the leading is called the half-leading.

User agents center glyphs vertically in an inline box, adding half-leading on the top and bottom. For example, if a piece of text is '12pt' high and the 'line-height' value is '14pt', 2pts of extra space should be added: 1pt above and 1pt below the letters. (This applies to empty boxes as well, as if the empty box contained an infinitely narrow letter.)

When the 'line-height' value is less than the font size, the final inline box height will be less than the font size and the rendered glyphs will "bleed" outside the box. If such a box touches the edge of a line box, the rendered glyphs will also "bleed" into the adjacent line box.

Although margins, borders, and padding of non-replaced elements do not enter into inline box height calculation (and thus the line box calculation), they are still rendered around inline boxes. This means that if the height of a line box is shorter than the outer edges of the boxes it contains, backgrounds and colors of padding and borders may "bleed" into adjacent line boxes. However, in this case, some user agents may use the line box to "clip" the border and padding areas (i.e., not render them).

'line-height'
Value:  normal | <number> | <length> | <percentage> | inherit
Initial:  normal
Applies to:  all elements
Inherited:  yes
Percentages:  refer to the font size of the element itself
Media:  visual

If the property is set on a block-level element whose content is composed of inline-level elements, it specifies the minimal height of each generated inline box.

If the property is set on an inline-level element, it specifies the exact height of each box generated by the element. (Except for inline replaced elements, where the height of the box is given by the 'height' property.)

Values for this property have the following meanings:

normal
Tells user agents to set the computed value to a "reasonable" value based on the font size of the element. The value has the same meaning as <number>. We recommend a computed value for 'normal' between 1.0 to 1.2.
<length>
The box height is set to this length. Negative values are illegal.
<number>
The computed value of the property is this number multiplied by the element's font size. Negative values are illegal. However, the number, not the computed value, is inherited.
<percentage>
The computed value of the property is this percentage multiplied by the element's computed font size. Negative values are illegal.

Example(s):

The three rules in the example below have the same resultant line height:

DIV { line-height: 1.2; font-size: 10pt } /* number */
DIV { line-height: 1.2em; font-size: 10pt } /* length */
DIV { line-height: 120%; font-size: 10pt } /* percentage */

When an element contains text that is rendered in more than one font, user agents should determine the 'line-height' value according to the largest font size.

Generally, when there is only one value of 'line-height' for all inline boxes in a paragraph (and no tall images), the above will ensure that baselines of successive lines are exactly 'line-height' apart. This is important when columns of text in different fonts have to be aligned, for example in a table.

Note that replaced elements have a 'font-size' and a 'line-height' property, even if they are not used directly to determine the height of the box. The 'font-size' is, however, used to define the 'em' and 'ex' units, and the 'line-height' has a role in the 'vertical-align' property.

'vertical-align'
Value:  baseline | sub | super | top | text-top | middle | bottom | text-bottom | <percentage> | <length> | inherit
Initial:  baseline
Applies to:  inline-level and 'table-cell' elements
Inherited:  no
Percentages:  refer to the 'line-height' of the element itself
Media:  visual

This property affects the vertical positioning inside a line box of the boxes generated by an inline-level element. The following values only have meaning with respect to a parent inline-level element, or to a parent block-level element, if that element generates anonymous inline boxes; they have no effect if no such parent exists.

Note. Values of this property have slightly different meanings in the context of tables. Please consult the section on table height algorithms for details.

baseline
Align the baseline of the box with the baseline of the parent box. If the box doesn't have a baseline, align the bottom of the box with the parent's baseline.
middle
Align the vertical midpoint of the box with the baseline of the parent box plus half the x-height of the parent.
sub
Lower the baseline of the box to the proper position for subscripts of the parent's box. (This value has no effect on the font size of the element's text.)
super
Raise the baseline of the box to the proper position for superscripts of the parent's box. (This value has no effect on the font size of the element's text.)
text-top
Align the top of the box with the top of the parent element's font.
text-bottom
Align the bottom of the box with the bottom of the parent element's font.
<percentage>
Raise (positive value) or lower (negative value) the box by this distance (a percentage of the 'line-height' value). The value '0%' means the same as 'baseline'.
<length>
Raise (positive value) or lower (negative value) the box by this distance. The value '0cm' means the same as 'baseline'.

The remaining values refer to the line box in which the generated box appears:

top
Align the top of the box with the top of the line box.
bottom
Align the bottom of the box with the bottom of the line box.

Boardshorts are designed to be quick-drying, and are generally made from smooth polyester or nylon material. They are durable and hold up to wear from contact with a surfboard, yet are comfortable and light-weight. They are well-adapted to their use in various active watersports.

Boardshorts do not have an elastic waist like many swim shorts do; instead they have a more rigid waistband which opens at the front, often with a velcro fly. The waistband is also held together at the front with a lace-up tie. This double fail-safe system is in order to ensure that the shorts cannot be pulled off the body by the force of the wave when a surfer is tumbled under water during a wipeout. Another common feature of authentic surfing boardshort design is a very small pocket sealed with velcro and vented with a grommet. This is designed to be a secure place to carry a car key or house key while in the water: Volcom Boardshorts

Boardshorts are normally longer than some shorts or form-fitting speedo styles of swimwear and sometimes they have a baggy appearance. Boardshorts are longer than normal shorts for one major reason: surfboards are covered with a layer of sticky wax, which allows the surfer to stand on the board without slipping off. However, this wax can rip leg hair off the surfer when he is sitting on the board waiting for waves. Long boardshorts cover the back of the leg when sitting on the board, preventing the wax from ripping at the leg hair. The length of boardshorts is also affected according to fashion trends; ranging from mid-thigh (old school) to below the knee, covering the entire knee. They often sit low in the back, exposing the top of the buttocks. Many designs use vibrant color, Hawaiian floral images and highlighted stitching; however not all boardshorts have these features: Volcom Boardshort

Although the basic design for boardshorts remains largely the same, some manufacturers have taken advantage of new technology. Because surfers and other water-sports enthusiasts commonly wear boardshorts without underwear, one of the major complaints has been about the use of velcro for the fly closure which tends to entangle pubic hair. A solution that some manufactures have come up with is to use a neoprene fly, which does not allow the fly to completely open, but provides enough stretch so that the shorts can be easily pulled on and off. Pubic hair does not get caught on the neoprene fly. To remedy another common complaint, about boardshorts stitching in the inseam area which would rub directly against the wearer's skin, many manufacturers switched to a seamless design, or use welding or glue, rather than stitches. Although it is very common for boardshorts to be worn as is, some male wearers prefer to wear boxers, a jockstrap or briefs under them. Some female wearers wear a swimsuit or bikini bottom under them. Volcom Board Short
