CSS - Liquid Height And 2nd Background Image
Hey guys, how are you?
So, I got two questions. Right now, on my main pages I have a fixed height, and wondering the best way to change it to a liquid one, so no matter how long the page is, I get a white background that's consistent with my 'main' <div>. And the second one, is how do I get a second background image on the body? I'm probably going to use almost almost a mirror type gradient of the top gradient, but not sure how to add it. You can view the two problems here http://thecheckoutplace.com/ home page). Thanks for your time, cheers. Similar TutorialsOkay, I'm sort of learning as I go here. I had thought I would use a locker as the background, but then I decided to try learning how to do a liquid design (and positioning, oooo) and that kind of screwed me up because now I don't know how to do the locker sides (gap between door and frame like at top). In a fixed width, I'd put a bg graphic that spanned #container, but in a flexible width design...I'm confused. Do I have to do some stretchy hijinks (layered divs w/bg images) like I did w/the top? That would be very confusing, if so... This is the first of many questions to come, I'm sure. The horribly pedestrian design is at http://www.describe.org/projects/describe/ Hi, Basically, this is one of my site pages: http://www.zombiemod.com/rm/nina2/about.html I want the white box in the middle to auto expand its height so it fills the vertical height of the page. Ive tried setting its height to 100% but that doesnt seem to work. This is my CSS for the white space: Code: #frame {
position: relative;
padding: 2px 15px 20px;
/* background-color: #000;*/
color: #000000;
height: 410px;
}
Can anyone help me with this? Im not great with this stuff, so I just want the easiest way possible, whether it is javascript or css. I'm not so CSS savvy, can anyone help me with the specific changes needed here that will force the 3 columns to load height at 100% or full column height? Also is it possible to have multiple content boxes loading one above the other in the left and right columns instead of one long content box? jarsandmixes.com/liquid.php body { background-color: #FFF7EF; } div { text-align:center; } div#wrapper { background-color: transparent; border:0px solid black; margin:0px auto; text-align:left; position:relative; width:100%; height:100%; min-height:100%; } div#border { background-image: url(images/bkg2.gif); background-repeat: repeat; border-top: 1px solid #000000; border-bottom: 1px solid #000000; border-left: 1px solid #000000; border-right: 1px solid #000000; width:100%; height:10px; } div#page { background-color: #DEC6B5; border:1px dashed black; position:relative; clear:both; float:left; width:100%; height:100%; min-height:100%; padding-bottom: 10px; overflow:hidden; } div#header { background-image: url(images/.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; border:1px dashed black; margin:0px; padding:0px; width:100%; height:80px; } div#menu { clear: both; background-color: #CA7B93; border-top: 1px solid #000000; border-bottom: 1px solid #000000; border-left: 1px solid #000000; border-right: 1px solid #000000; width:100%; height:30px; } div#left1 { background-image: url(images/bkg2.gif); background-repeat: repeat; border:1px solid black; float:left; margin:5px; width:20%; height:auto; } div#left2 { background-color: #FFF7EF; background-image: url(images/bkg3.gif); background-repeat: repeat; border:1px solid black; margin:0px 5px 0px 5px; padding:4px; right:20px; width:90%; height:auto; } div#content1 { background-image: url(images/bkg2.gif); background-repeat: repeat; border:1px solid black; margin:5px auto; width:54%; height:auto; } div#content2 { background-color: #DEC6B5; background-image: url(images/bkg3.gif); border:1px solid black; margin:0px 5px 0px 5px; padding:4px; width:96%; height:auto; } div#divider { background-image: url(images/.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; margin:10px auto; width:439px; height:60px } div#right1 { background-image: url(images/bkg2.gif); background-repeat: repeat; float:right; border:1px solid black; margin:5px; right:10px; width:20%; height:auto; } div#right2 { background-color: #FFF7EF; background-image: url(images/bkg3.gif); background-repeat: repeat; border:1px solid black; margin:0px 5px 0px 5px; padding:4px; right:20px; width:90%; height:auto; } div#footer { clear: both; border-top: 1px solid #000000; border-bottom: 1px solid #000000; border-left: 1px solid #000000; border-right: 1px solid #000000; width:100%; height:30px; } So... I've got a page I'm working on where I can't seem to get to floats to clear without compromising the layout of the divs that are floating. http://www1.romenews-tribune.com/multimedia2/ http://www1.romenews-tribune.com/multimedia2/style.css If I try the clear:after class fix, it doesn't work. If I try the overflow: hidden fix, it looks fine until the page is resized - and the overflowing content is hidden. What I want is for the right and left div is to stretch to the bottom of the page regardless of the page height, and clear to the div they are floating in. Any suggestions? Let me know if I need to provide better examples or more info, as I'm stumped on this one and feel like I've been doing this for far too long. i am trying to have the background of all pages appear like this one: www(dot)grimebikes(dot)com/events/ however it will only fill its parent container, like this www(dot)grimebikes(dot)com/media/ fade1000.png is the image i need to cover the entire pages content. /* HTML Tag Redefinition */ html { height: 100%; background: #000000 url(images/background.png) center center fixed; background-size: cover;} body { padding: 0px; margin: auto; height:100%; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:12px; } img { border: 0px; } a {cursorointer; } /* Page Structure / Navigation */ #page { position:relative; width: 1000px; margin: auto; text-align:left; background: url(images/fade1000.png) repeat-y; min-height:200%;} #page.logo {position:absolute; top:0; left:0; width:330;} #page input { color: #c2d826; background-color: #000000; border-style:solid; border-width:1px; border-color:#444444; padding:2px; font-size:10px;} #page #content {width: 900px; margin:auto; text-align:left; position:relative; height:100%; } #page #content #header{ position:relative; width:900px; float:left; } Hello, I had a site exactly how I wanted to and messed up a css file. I am almost back to where I was but I am having an issue with the background image of the body element. Please look at this layout - Client Website . Notice how the hardwood floor does not go all the down? I have the image sized to 1500 pixels high and yesterday I did not have this issue. Also, when I outline elements in FF I see the body element seems to fall short. Any help would be appreciated. Tom Below is what I have. Displays fine in FF. In IE, there is approximatly a 13px white space under the image. Can't find an answer to this. Any insight is appreciated. --Sean HTML: <p id="dot"></p> CSS: #dot { position:relative; left: 0px; top: 0px; width:200px; height:6px; background-image: url(dot.jpg); background-repeat: repeat-x; line-height:0pt; margin: 0px; } Hi all, I am trying to automate everything on my test website and I have one more angle to cover. In effect, I want to adjust the line-height property (which I can do) based on the number of files within a specific folder (PHP and already done). The more files in the folder, the lower the line-height value must be. This is to ensure if I copy additional files into the folder, then the navigation menu (which is PHP reading files in this particular folder) will alter the CSS line-height property accordingly to ensure it can never exceed a certain height. Sounds wierd? go to www.re3.org.uk (next to the RE3 image, I have a list of hyperlinks which are obtained from files within the folder) My problem, when adjusting the CSS property (which is set as cm in *.css file) in javascript, it doesn't correspond correctly, the line-height property in javascript doesn't appear to be work in cm but some other measurement. Does anyone know how to change what unit of measurement Javascript works in? Or does anyone know what unit of measurement javascript uses when adjusting line-height / line-width values? I want to create a mini-algorithm that works out the appropriate line-height based on the image height (got that already) and the number of files in the folder (got that too) so the menu automatically adjusts to fit. Whew! It seem that everytime I added the image tag, the div'x area get bigger in IE but not in Mozilla/Firefox browser. So, I thought by added the "margin-bottom:-360px;" to the div would fix it but it had an opposite effect. Meaning it worked in IE but Mozilla show a vertical scrollbar. So, does anyone know how can I make the <img> overlap one another without being stacked on one after another in height for IE if I take out the "margin-bottom: -360px;"? Thanks... Code:
div.divBox1
{
width: 286px;
height: 359px;
float: left;
}
div.divClearFloat
{
clear: both;
height: 0px; /* For IE Stupidity (it added some spaces after clearing the float) */
font-size: 1pt; /* For IE Stupidity (minimum height only work with current font-size somewhere) */
}
div.divDottedLineAdvertisementSeperator1
{
width: 575px;
height: 3px;
background-color: #ff0000;
font-size: 1pt; /* For IE Stupidity (minimum height only work with current font-size somewhere) */
}
Code: <div class="divBox1"> <div style="margin-bottom:-360px;"> <img src="images/doctor.jpg" style="position:relative;top:0px;left:0px;z-index:2;"> <img src="images/we_help.jpg" style="position:relative;top:-360px;left:0px;z-index:1;"> </div> </div> <div class="divClearFloat"></div> <div class="divDottedLineAdvertisementSeperator1"></div> Since I began doing CSS layouts instead of tables last year, it seems like every single site I do I run into the same problem -- getting a div to stretch to 100% height. I find the solution to it, it works; then when I try the exact same solution for the next site I do, it refuses to work properly. It's very frustrating how such a simple concept can be so hard to do... http:// www. pinstripepresentations.com/stephanie/residential.php There are two divs -- left column and right column -- within a page_wrapper div. I need the right column div and it's background to always be 100% height and touch the top and bottom of the window. But right now it only stretches to the window viewable area and doesn't continue when you scroll. I've included all the parent height commands. I've been fighting with this dang thing for a whole day and I'm not sure what else to try. Please help! hello, im gonna try to explain my problem. I have a wrapper div with a background image that is repeated on Y. Within that wrapper i have a content div, there are messages that come from a database. the problem is that the wrapper (and the background) isnt expending to the text that is in the content div. How to make the wrapper expend to the size of the content div!?. here are my divs: Code:
div.wrapper{
position:relative;
width:900px;
background:transparent url(images/templatemo_content_bg.jpg) repeat-y scroll 0 0;
margin:auto;
}
div.content{
float:left;
width:550px;
margin-left:20px;
}
i changed alot to try and now im totaly lost xD greetings Razedd Hi I have searched on this subject, and found the Faux Column articles, but I have failed to make use of these. The following page shows the problem LINK And CSS The text in the container div leads off the bottom of the page. The CSS is a bit of a mess at the moment because I have been messing with it trying to get this to work. I need the background of the container div to extend to the bottom of the content div. I have set min-height and heights for the body and html tags, and then for the container, as I know that the height is only taken into account if the parent has a height too. This does not work. Any suggestions? Thanks Jake I am attempting to build a site with a fixed-width column that automatically centers in a window. In addition, I need the center color to extend to the bottom of the browser OR to the end of the content, which ever is longer. Right now, everything works great, until the content requires the page to scroll (either due to longer content or a shrunk browser window). For some reason, even though the "testing" text will continue, the background color stops short. How can I make the background always extend to the bottom of the text, no matter the browser size or content length? (I do have a much more complicated site built with an external style sheet, but to save hastle, this is a stripped down version showing just the issue I am having. The problem doesn't change even with nesting elements in the "main" div). Sorry if this question is dumb/obvious to anyone, I have tried finding a solution and it just seems to elude me. Thanx for any help anyone can offer! Code: <html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
html {
height:100%;

I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this unless there is a trick or hack....Can u set a background images height & width in a tag? I have a logo'd masthead that I need to reduce when the user wants to print the page. I know I can just create a print-specific image but, I thought I'd ask to see if there was a way to reduce the image thru .css??? thanks! Stephen Hi all, I would be very grateful if someone could help me out with a coding problem. Basicaly, I have two columns and I want both to fill with the background colours with the same height. My sample coding is below. (NOTE: Ive had to remove the urls from the DOCTYPE and <html>, please replace with correct code). <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="w3.org/1999/xhtml" > <head><title>100% Height CSS Layout</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <style type="text/css"> #all{ WIDTH: 950px; PADDING-TOP:0px; MARGIN: 3px auto 0px; POSITION: relative; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #fff; FLOAT: left; } #leftside{ FLOAT:left; WIDTH:169px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 1px solid #999; POSITION: relative; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ededed; } #rightside{ BORDER: 0px solid #000; WIDTH:775px; FLOAT:left; POSITION: relative; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 5px; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #F4CDD8; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="all"> <div id="leftside">a<br>b<br></div> <div id="rightside">c<br>d<br>e</div> <div> </body> </html> In the above example I would like the "leftside" div to stretch to the same height height as the "rightside" div filling the area up with the "leftside" background colour and also extending the 1px border. All help much appreciated. Thanks Soph I am new to CSS so bare with me if this is dumb, i have taken my page to the bare minimum trying to diagnose this. Mozilla Firefox does not seem to work with nested divs the way I think it should. IE7 works like a champ. I have a content area (mainpage) with a Vertical Navigation bar nested in it. I would expect the page to have a full background of coatedmetalsm.jpg since the mainpage is set to height: auto; But this only works in IE and Mozilla has no background. Can someone show me the error of my ways? Thanks, Carlos Code:

The layout I have going is a bit difficult to explain. Here's a diagram.. The area of importance is the header. The content and main head area are centered. The area to the left and right of the header are a <div>. However, as you can see, the background image on the left is different than the one on the right. I'm having difficulty making this work. the images can be stretched horizontally without a problem, but the two sides must meet in the middle beneath the header. I hope this makes sense. What I've got to do, I think, is tell the background image of the underlying <div> to stretch to 100%, and make this image 300px wide or so including both sides of the image and a split. The split would hide behind the header. I can't find a method to stretch the background image, though. Does anybody know of a better way, or a way to achieve this method at all without getting into completely different layouts? Thanks in advance for any assistance/suggestions. In short, I'm trying to get this one image to tile down the page to the bottom, underneath a static background image. Basically, it's a 2pixel high image that's ready to tile vertically, just having a tough time getting it to work. You can clearly see the problem here, a gap at the bottom: http://www.groundedgroup.com/clients/NWR/ Here's the relevant css: http://www.groundedgroup.com/client...WR-GG/style.css I've googled and subsequently tried out some solutions, but no luck. Got any ideas? Thanks in advance. PS - Is there a way to keep the spiders from indexing my links above? The site is on a test server, so I don't want the url indexed. Hi, I have a question about setting up the Body background-image via a linked external stylesheet. I have a index.html file and a myStyle.css file. I want to setup the background to load an image file, test.JPG. When I embed the following in my index.html, I see the background show up: ** inside index.html file ** <BODY STYLE="background-image: url(test.JPG);"> blah </BODY> BUT, when I define my background in the externally linked myStyle.css file, the background does not load: ** inside myStyle.css file ** BODY { background-image: url(test.JPG); } ** inside index.html file ** <LINK REL="stylesheet" TYPE="text/css" HREF="myStyle.css"> <BODY> blah </BODY> </LINK> Please help. thanks! Hi. Really hoping someone can help me with this... I'll try and explain this as best I can(!) Basically I've got a page containing a block of 9 images, with each linking to a video clip. At the moment I've got the CSS coded so that whenever the mouse is hovered over the 'infobar' (at the bottom of each image) it goes from having a transparent background with black text to having a grey background with white text. What I'm trying to achieve is that same effect whenever the mouse is hovered over any part of the image and infobar.
