I needed to switch the order of content displayed between two sections that each had nested information. | |
On desktop section #1 was a left sidebar, section #2 was the main content. | |
On mobile these needed to be flipped so the main content would appear before the sidebar content, in a column. | |
The solution here worked only so far: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17455811/swap-div-position-with-css-only | |
The main problem with this solution was that on iOS Chrome version ^51.0.2 on iPhone 6 and iPad mini, as well as Safari and whatever default internet browser coems on Android devices... | |
... all content was stacked on top of each other. | |
The following solution gave me the effect I was looking for, without content stacking on top of each other. | |
*/ | |
.container { | |
display:flex; | |
flex-direction: column-reverse; | |
} | |
.section1, | |
.section2 { | |
height: auto; | |
} | |
/* HTML example | |
<div class='container'> | |
<section class="section1">Some content <p>some nested items<p> </section> | |
<section class="section2">Some other content <p>some more nested items<p> </section> | |
</div> | |
