I\'m having a difficult time finding specific info for my case. I\'d like to distribute 3 image thumbnails across a 940px div in order to line up with the rest of my content
The downside of text-align: justify;
is this that you there must be space between each two inline-block elements, otherwise those two elements will stick to each other.
you can check this behavior here: http://jsfiddle.net/JTcGZ/1552/
The new modern way to achieve this is to use flex.
#thumbs {
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between // flex-start | flex-end | center | space-around;
align-items: stretch // flex-start | flex-end | center | baseline;
}
#thumbs a {
display: inline-block;
}
Also you can define percentage width in modern browsers:
#thumbs a {
width: calc((100% / 3) - 10px);
}
