html - CSS - how to make DIV with wrapped floats inside only be as large as it needs to be to hold the floats? -

i have several floats , div around them. div within div, , supposed horizontally centered within it. thing inner div not fixed-width, , can't be. here code:

div.outer { text-align: center; } div.inner { display: inline-block; width: auto; } div.floatdiv { display: block; float: left; width: 270px; height: 400px; margin: 5px; background-color: gray; text-align: center; } div.clearboth { clear: both; }

and html:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd xhtml 1.0 strict//en" "http://www.w3.org/tr/xhtml1/dtd/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <link href="main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" static="screen" /> </head> <body> <div class="outer"> <div class="inner"> <div class="floatdiv"> text. </div> <div class="floatdiv"> text. </div> <div class="floatdiv"> text. </div> <div class="floatdiv"> text. </div> <div class="clearboth"> </div> </div> </div> </body>

this works provided browser window wide plenty floats remain in 1 line. if window narrowed, lastly of floats jumps next line of floats - "inner" div becomes wide containing block "outer" , inner not centered in outer anymore.

i can't think of improve suggestion here, utilize media queries.

here's implementation of code: http://jsfiddle.net/thirtydot/byszs/4/

@media (max-width: 1123px) { div.inner { max-width: 843px; } } @media (max-width: 843px) { div.inner { max-width: 563px; } } @media (max-width: 563px) { div.inner { max-width: 280px; } }

it's cumbersome , doesn't (automatically) back upwards more elements, works!

well, works in browsers back upwards media queries.

if need back upwards other browsers, suggest using lightweight respond.js. although then, said might utilize javascript (which have advantage of supporting number of elements automatically) instead of media queries.

How do I check if an insert was successful with MySQLdb in Python? - i have code: cursor = conn.cursor() cursor.execute(("insert new_files (videos_id, filename, " "is_processing) values (%s,%s,1)"), (id, filename)) logging.warn("%d", cursor.rowcount) if (cursor.rowcount == 1): logging.info("inserted values %d, %s", id, filename) else: logging.warn("failed insert values %d, %s", id, filename) cursor.close() fun is, cursor.rowcount always one, though updated database create videos_id unique key. is, insert fails because in tests same videos_id going appear (and when check database, nil inserted). whatever reason, rowcount 1 - logging.warn have spits out rowcount of 1. so, question: can utilize rowcount work out if insert went fine? if so, (presumably) doing wrong? otherwise, how check if insert went fine? your code not commit after modifications (your modifications rolled back). should...
