I made a tab-menu using Bootstrap.

But I need some info placed in the right side of the page, on line with the tabs.

But I can’t seem to figure it out.

So far I end up with this:

What I need is this (Photoshopped to show what I need):

The demo markup is here:

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap-theme.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>

<body>
    <div class="container body-content">
        <div class="container-fluid">
            <div class="tabbable">
                <div>
                    This is a test <button class="btn btn-primary btn-xs" type="submit">Test button</button>
                </div>

                <ul class="nav nav-tabs" id="pageTabs">
                    <li class="active"><a href="#tab1" data-toggle="tab">Tab 1</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#tab2" data-toggle="tab">Tab 2</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#tab3" data-toggle="tab">Tab 3</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#tab4" data-toggle="tab">Tab 4</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#tab5" data-toggle="tab">Tab 5</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#tab6" data-toggle="tab">Tab 6</a></li>
                </ul>

                <div class="container">

                    <div class="tab-content">
                        <div class="tab-pane active" id="tab1">
                            <h4>Tab 1</h4>
                            <p>Content</p>
                        </div>

                        <div class="tab-pane" id="tab2">
                            <h4>Tab 2</h4>
                            <p>Content</p>
                        </div>

                        <div class="tab-pane" id="tab3">
                            <h4>Tab 3</h4>
                            <p>Content</p>

                            <h4>Tab 4</h4>

                        </div>

                        <div class="tab-pane" id="tab5">
                            <h4>Tab 5</h4>
                            <p>Content</p>
                        </div>

                        <div class="tab-pane" id="tab6">
                            <h4>Tab 6</h4>

                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</body>

Hope someone can help me in the right direction 🙂

You can do this:

.tabbable {
 position: relative;
}

.valign {
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  right: 0;
  transform: translateY(50%);
}

For reference, here is a good illustrative guide on layouts in CSS:

learnlayout.com

And here are two great guides on centering:

.clearfix:after {
  content: '';
  display: block;
  clear: both;
  }

.right-panel {
  padding-top: 10px;
}
