CSS - Css Layer For Additional Content

Hi there,

I have a content glider script, but I have added it to a wrapper with a background image.

The css is using a white background colour so when a new layer is glided up, it covers the one underneath it. However, I want the background to be transparent to show the background image underneath....

If I remove the white background, they layers become transparent and overlay each other, so you can see all text in the layers on top of each other making it impossible to read.

Is there anyway I can make it so it has a transparent background, but so it will not show the content under the new slide?

This is my CSS:

PHP Code:
.glidecontentwrapper{
position: relative; /* Do not change this value */

height: 230px; /* Set height to be able to contain height of largest content shown*/

overflow: hidden;
}
/*
    Total wrapper width: 350px+5px+5px=360px
    Or width of wrapper div itself plus any left and right CSS border and padding
    Adjust related containers below according to comments
*/


.glidecontent{ /*style for each glide content DIV within wrapper.*/
position: absolute; /* Do not change this value */
background: white;
visibility: hidden;
width: 330px;
}
/*
 Total glidecontent width: 330px+10px+10px=350px
    Or width of wrapper div itself (not counting wrapper border/padding)
*/

.glidecontenttoggler{ /*style for DIV used to contain toggler links. */
width: 360px;
margin-top: 6px;
text-align: center; /*How to align pagination links: "left", "center", or "right"
background: white; /*always declare an explicit background color for fade effect to properly render in IE*/
} 





Any help would be great!
Thanks.

Hi all,

I'm trying to center a CSS layer, and have tried everything google and I can find on the web about CSS centering, but none work. I simply cannot get the following "menu" to center horizontally in a browser window [note: I *can* get it to center if I set the left and right margins of the "menu" layer to the same value, but that stretches the "BDB76B" colored background out, which I don't want to do]. Any help appreciated - thanks in advance to any takers!

Here is the relevant code in the html document:

<div id="menu">
<a href="index.html" class=menu_link>home</a>
<a href="services.html" class=menu_link>services</a>
<a href="hosting.html" class=menu_link>hosting</a>
<a href="testimonials.html" class=menu_link>testimonials</a>
<a href="tips_tools.html" class=menu_link>tips & tools</a>
<a href="contact.html" class=menu_link>contact</a>
</div>

and here is the relevant code from my style sheet:

#menu {
background: #BDB76B;
position: absolute;
top: 85px;
height: 15px;
width: 800px;
padding-bottom: 5px;
z-index: 100;
}

a.menu_link, a.menu_link:visited{
font-size: medium;
color: #808000;
font-family : "Gill Sans MT", "Gill Sans", GillSans, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-weight: normal;
font-variant: small-caps;
margin: 0px;
padding: 2px 5px 4px 5px;
text-decoration: none;
}

a.menu_link:hover{
font-size: medium;
color: black;
font-family : "Gill Sans MT", "Gill Sans", GillSans, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-weight: normal;
font-variant: small-caps;
margin: 0px;
padding: 2px 5px 4px 5px;
text-decoration: underline;
}

I think actually the trouble lies in my content layer not centering itself correctly and its being pushed to the right by the nav layer. It looks semi what I want it to look like in FF but not in IE. Any suggestions on how I can fix this?

Hi. Any help would be appreciated. I am trying to cut down on my image sizes on my website: http://toptiertemplates.com, but i am having a few difficulties. I have this table which was created in photoshop which is off to the side. I would like to take just a slice of the table and repeat the image the full length of the table's original length. The page is written by placing everything with divs. I know how to set the image as a background and all and repeat it, however, when i do so, it replaces my website's background and just shows up as a white space.

So i am wondering if I have to use layers of some sort or anything else. I'd appreciate some help. Thanks.

I need to position a 200px high by 300px wide layer in the center of the page.

does anyone know a simple way to do this, i have thought about using JS to calculate the width of the page, take off the 200px, and halve it, but that seems like overkill, isnt there a simple CSS command?

Thanks

I've been re-designing my site in valid XHTML 1.1 and CSS, and I've hit a bit of a problem....

Everything works perfectly in Firefox, but IE isn't liking things at all. The navbar at the left should stretch all the way to the bottom image, but it isnt having it. I've tried messing with it for about an hour now, and can't fix it....

The page can be found at URL and the stylesheet at URL

Oh, and I know the colours are all messed up, I'll fix that later :P

Edit: Fixed bbCode

Hello All,

Im currently stuck trying to get a layer on top of a layer. The image below shows the problem.

And here is a link to a code version:

Any help greatfully appreciated!

Well, I can't post links so this is going to be hard as hell to type out. I have a layer within that page that I want in a certain position, yet when I move the width of my browser the layer does not stay where I want it. Obviousely, this does not make any sense because its something you have to see.

I checked the rules for the forums and I can't find where it states anything about URLs, if someone would be so kind to show me, I'd appericiate it.


Not that it matters witout seeing it on the page but my code for this layer is:

Code:

<div id="Layer1" style="position:absolute; left:848px; top:85px; width:118px; height:167px; z-index:1">    
	  <div class="mltop">schedule +4hrs </div>
	  <p>00:00 - Music <br>
	    01:00 - Music <br>
	    02:00 - Music <br>
	  03:00 - <a href="">BRR</a></p>
	  <p><b>Current time: 00:00</b><br>
	    Times in CST/CDT
	    <br>
      </p>
	</div>

Hi!

Does anybody have some great link or book advice about all the properties of the DIV and/or LAYER - tags? Inspiring examples with javascript to this are also welcome. I will use it to build advanced layer functionality.

I want to take a layer and center on a page. In other words if I have the margins top = 0 and left=0 then inside the main layer which takes into account the entire page I want it to be centered on the page. At present I can center a table on a page but not a layer???? how to do this? thanks

Hi Guys,

Basically I'm having trouble with getting the 'Content' div layer to wrap around the switching div layers.

The grey background colour represents the 'Content' div layer which wraps around the button menu OK but doesn't wrap around the layers which switch.

The bodged way of doing it is to have a fixed height but then it leaves a blank area underneath the divs that are short of text...If you get what I mean?

Code:

<div id="content_test">
	<div id="rollovercontentwrapper">

		<div id="tabwrapper">
			<ul id="tabmenu">
				<li><p><a href="#" onClick="javascript:showTabContentOne('TabContentOne')">Summary</p></a></li>
				<li><p><a href="#" onClick="javascript:showTabContentTwo('TabContentTwo')">Benefits</p></a></li>
			</ul><!--TABMENU-->
		</div><!--TABWRAPPER-->

		<div id="TabContentOne" class="TabContentOne" style="visibility: hidden">
						<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer lacus risus, 
						porttitor non aliquam non, scelerisque vitae turpis. Duis venenatis nisl lectus, 
						et aliquam eros. Nam commodo, ligula sed ultrices vehicula, justo augue ultricies 
						urna, sed rhoncus nisi dui sed risus. Nullam commodo risus nec justo sagittis eu 
						cursus nisi interdum.</p>
