html - Making span inherit sibling width -
i have div
header element , span
.
how can prevent span
making parent div
larger?
i.e. lets span
's width width of sibling heading.
example:
<div class="media-body"> <h4 class="media-heading"> lauren ipsum <small>@ipsum - 2014-06-01t18:40:35.000z</small> </h4> <span> lorem ipsum.. </span> </div>
the span
should not make div
, wider if wasn't there.
example: fiddle
if understand question, want span element remain size of parent.
from looking @ code appears haven't specified maximum width of parent, span assumes keep flowing until reaches border of container. given it's not set, text keeps going until hits browser window.
your options limited 1) setting maximum width of parent, , setting span
display: block;
or 2) setting max width on span
.
