CSS - Div Background Problem With Firefox
I am trying to assign a background to footer div, it appears fine with internet explorer, but it does not appear at all with firefox.
http://www.refinethetaste.com/html/ Similar TutorialsI am trying to create a very basic div and css template with 3 columns. I want 3 columns visible, and want to give a backgroundcolor to the container. When my columns gets higher (the left, middle or the right column), I want the div wich contains these 3 columns to get higher (and reveiling this by the background color). All goes well in Internet Explorer 6, and even 7... but Firefox seems to have problems with it. Can anybody help me out?

Hi there, First time posting here so dont bite my head off! First up allow me to say, that i've done a search for previous posts and although i found topics similiar to what im asking none of the answers within helped me. Second, i've run my CSS and XHTML through the validation service over at w3c. - XHTML transitional - is valid on all pages apart from the main page this is due to me running cutenews on that page and the markup isnt valid. - CSS is valid. Okay to business, im hoping someone out there can help me, i've recently just updated my website with a new layout. It works perfectly in IE-6 but not in firefox, or any other browser for that matter (i used browsercam). I have issues with the background images not displaying as they should do. And not only that, my flash animation at the top of the page isnt displaying in FF either! Heres a link to my website And heres a link to the CSS file someone help please! I am trying to set background of my divs with: background:#FFFFFF url(images/nheadlines_bg.gif) top no-repeat; It works fine with IE but at Firefox there is only a white background. You can check this out at: http://www.pearl.ru/isdunyasi Hey everyone, I'm redesigning a site and I'm running into some problems in firefox with the placement of the header-background image. The problem is that firefox places the image about 15 pixels below the intended area. When I add a border of 1 pixel to the header div firefox places the image correctly. I don't have this problem when viewing the site in IE. I've coded the following XHTML and css: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>ParaCentrumEeldeHoogeveen</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" /> <meta http-equiv="expires" content="0" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="nl" /> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/layout.css" type="text/css" /> </head> <body> <div id="container"> <div id="header"> </div> </div> </body> </html> And the css file: Code: html { padding: 0px; margin: 0px; } body { background: #3a60db url('../gfx/background.jpg') repeat-x; font-family: arial, "lucida console", sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #000000; text-align: center; margin: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding: 0px; } #container { border: 0px solid #ff0000; width: 760px; margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px; text-align: left; } #header { background: url('../gfx/header.jpg') no-repeat; height: 238px; width: 760px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; } Screenshot of the problem Does anybody know what the problem is? Thanks in advance. Grtz.

The site navigation looks great in IE but in Firefox a couple of the background images are skewed down and to the left. Since all my tricks from years ago are so outdated now, I decided to try CSS for a simplified navigation setup. The code is probably pretty messy since I chopped it together from numerous sources and still am not completely sure how it works. Background: I created a large 794x1200 PNG image that contains two complete border and navigation sets. I am using CSS to both position the appropriate portion in each table/cell as well as switching to a slice on the 2nd image set for rollover purposes. An example of the current test is he (URL address blocked: See forum rules) *not sure if this is okay but would be best to see the example. If it is not allowed as a non-clickable then feel free to delete. It is here - classtime . org / test6 . htm and the navigation image is he (URL address blocked: See forum rules) *classtime . org / navigate . png I would be eternally grateful to anyone that can help me figure out why the site works great in IE but is coming up skewed in Firefox. As a side note, when I pull up the site in Frontpage, it shows the left-most cell as being larger than it is supposed to be even though it is hardcoded. To get my left image bar to show up in the correct place I had to use a value of "left: -40px;" I'm not sure why that is but I suspect it has something to do with the problem. Thank you very much for taking a look. My jumbled code is as follows: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "(URL address blocked: See forum rules)"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us"> <title>Ultrasonic Blind Company - Elk Grove Village, Illinois</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"> <style type="text/css" media="screen"> a:link {color: #FFF4D1;} a:visited {color: #FFF4D1;} a:hover {color: #74060c;} a:active {color: #FFF4D1;} .top a { display: block; width: 794px; height: 120px; background-image: url('navigate.png'); } .top a:hover { background-position: 0px -601px; } #left { left: -40px; width: 150px; height: 460px; display: block; background: url('navigate.png'); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: 0px -120px; position: relative; } #left li {margin: 0px; padding: 0px; list-style: none; position: absolute; text-align: center; font: bold 18px Batang; line-height: 50px; } #left li, #left a {height: 50px; width: 146px; display: block;} #panel1b {top: 10px;} #panel2b {top: 63px;} #panel3b {top: 116px;} #panel4b {top: 169px;} #panel5b {top: 223px;} #panel1b a:hover {background: transparent url('navigate.png') 0px -730px no-repeat} #panel2b a:hover {background: transparent url('navigate.png') 0px -785px no-repeat} #panel3b a:hover {background: transparent url('navigate.png') 0px -839px no-repeat} #panel4b a:hover {background: transparent url('navigate.png') 0px -890px no-repeat} #panel5b a:hover {background: transparent url('navigate.png') 0px -945px no-repeat} #right { width: 154px; height: 460px; display: block; background: url('navigate.png'); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: -640px -120px; position: relative; } #right li {margin: 0px; padding: 0px; list-style: none; position: absolute; text-align: right; font: bold 18px Batang; } #right li, #right a {height: 85px; width: 154px; display: block;} #panel1r {top: 0px;} #panel2r {top: 100px;} #panel3r {top: 200px;} #panel4r {top: 300px;} #panel1r a:hover {background: transparent url('navigate.png') -640px -721px no-repeat} #panel2r a:hover {background: transparent url('navigate.png') -640px -821px no-repeat} #panel3r a:hover {background: transparent url('navigate.png') -640px -921px no-repeat} #panel4r a:hover {background: transparent url('navigate.png') -640px -1021px no-repeat} </style> </head> <body bgcolor=#74060c> <div align=center> <table id="Table_01" width=794px height=600px border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0> <tr> <td colspan="3" height="120" width="794" bgcolor="#FFF4D1"> <div class="top"> <a href="(URL address blocked: See forum rules)"></a> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align=left valign=top height=674px width=150px bgcolor="#FFF4D1"> <ul id="left"> <li id="panel1b"><a href="(URL address blocked: See forum rules)" style="text-decoration: none">Contact</a></li> <li id="panel2b"><a href="(URL address blocked: See forum rules)" style="text-decoration: none">Residential</a></li> <li id="panel3b"><a href="(URL address blocked: See forum rules)" style="text-decoration: none">Commercial</a></li> <li id="panel4b"><a href="(URL address blocked: See forum rules)" style="text-decoration: none">Coupons</a></li> <li id="panel5b"><a href="(URL address blocked: See forum rules)" style="text-decoration: none">Questions</a></li> </ul> </td> <td align=left valign=top width=490px height=674px bgcolor="#FFF4D1"> aaa</td> <td align=left valign=top width=154px height=674px bgcolor="#FFF4D1"> <p align=right> <ul id="right"> <li id="panel1r"><a href="(URL address blocked: See forum rules)" style="text-decoration: none"></a></li> <li id="panel2r"><a href="(URL address blocked: See forum rules)" style="text-decoration: none"></a></li> <li id="panel3r"><a href="(URL address blocked: See forum rules)" style="text-decoration: none"></a></li> <li id="panel4r"><a href="(URL address blocked: See forum rules)" style="text-decoration: none"></a></li> </ul> </td> </tr> </table> </div> </body> </html> My logo is defined as a background image in my .css. It appears in IE when I print/print preview, but in FF it does not. This is the .css code for the logo div: #logo { float: left; margin-left:1px; width: 200px; background:url(../images/mm-logo.jpg) no-repeat; height:50px;} Any ideas or suggestions? Please look at http://casadelsol.tmhdesign.com I have this css #main { width:994px; background: transparent url(../images/stripe_bg.gif) repeat-y 0 400px; } That stripe_bg.gif shows up fine in IE, but not in FF, can someone shed some light? So I have a design where the background is a large (1400x1100) image that fades into a vertical gradient at the edges. I've set up the css as follows: body { background: #000 url(gradient.jpg) repeat-x; margin: 0; } Here's where I run into my problem... I've created an empty DIV to hold the large image which will appear on top of the gradient and positioned it absolutely. <div id="bg_image"></div> #bg_image { width: 100%; height: 1100px; background: url(images/bg_image.jpg) no-repeat top center; margin: 0; position:absolute; } This works and the background looks like it should, however because the large image is inside a DIV, any time the browser window is smaller than that div (which will be the case for most users considering the image size) there will be scrollbars. This makes perfect sense of course I just can't come up with an alternative. If there was a way to extend a background image beyond the borders of a DIV that would work but overflow:visible; doesn't seem to work with background images only content. I wish I could set a repeating background AND a static background in the body style, because that is exactly the effect I'm trying to achieve. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Josh Hello all, When viewing in IE my background is dark red like it's suppose to be. When viewing the same site in Firefox the background is white. Firefox is not seeing that portion of code within my CSS file. Can someone shine some light for me? Thanks in advance!! Please help I need Please send me a message for URL. For some odd reason Dev won't allow me to post a link to my site for you. I have the following code, in the sidebar DIV in Firefox the background does not show up, it does in IE7. What have I done wrong? CSS code: Code: #content { margin-left: 25px; background: #fff; width: 990px; padding: 15px 20px 20px 20px; } #blog { padding: 0; margin-right: 40px; background: #fff; width: 660px; color: #545454; float: left; padding-top: 5px !important; } #sidebar { width: 250px; padding: 8px; background: #ccc; } XHTML/HTML code: Code: <div id="content"> <div id="blog"> blah blah blah </div> <div id="sidebar"> <h2>blah</h2> blah blah blah </div> </div> I've been looking it at for a while, and while it's probably something minor I'm just simple over looking, I can't figure it out. Everything works, is in the correct place, except the grey background (#ccc) isn't showing up on the sidebar. Hi All I love Firefox, and have never had a reason to doubt it, but has anyone come across this before? I've got a page with a row of buttons which are <a> tags (or <divs> I tried that and it made no difference) inside which are transparent gifs the :hover states of which change the background colour. It all aligns perfectly in IE but Firefox, Safari and Netscape are all misaligning the background colour by about 2 pixels - dropping it down the page and forcing the enclosing div to expand. Here's the html Code: <div id="panelnav"> <a href="javascript:;" class="workbuttons"><img src="images/work-double.gif" alt="view more work" width="25" height="13"></a> <a href="javascript:;" class="workbuttons"><img src="images/work-single.gif" alt="view more work" width="25" height="13"></a> </div> And here's the CSS Code: #panelnav{ height:31px; text-align:right; padding-right:8px; padding-top:8px; } .workbuttons{ width:25px; background: #DDE0E9; height:13px; margin-left:5px; overflow:hidden; } a.workbuttons:link{ outline: none; border: none; padding:0px } a.workbuttons:hover{ background: #fff; } You'll note that some of that CSS is pretty redundant, but it just shows a few things I've tried that haven't worked : ) Anybody got any ideas? Thanks M Hi, I have to get background position of image from a css class in a javascript function. [CODE] abc.button { width: 47px; background-image: url(../bt/save.gif); background-position: 0 -123px; } [CODE] I am able to get it in IE using backgroundPositionX and backgroundPositionY [CODE} var x = document.getElementById('abc').currentStyle.backgroundPositionX; var y = document.getElementById('abc').currentStyle.backgroundPositionY; [CODE} But I am not able to get the background position in FireFox. Is there a way to get background position of image in Firefox. Thanks Ok, so i worked a little on this site and i can't get it to work in IE, and its really starting to bug me. What am i doing wrong? http://markspixel.com/smoothtobacco/bio.htm Code: <html xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"> <head> <title>Smooth Tobacco</title> <style type="text/css"> html, body { height: 100%; margin: 0; padding: 0; } img#bg { position:fixed; top:0; left:0; width:100%; height:100%; } #content { position:relative; z-index:1; } .style1 { margin-right: 0px; } </style> <!--[if IE]> <style type="text/css"> html { overflow-y: hidden; } body { overflow-y: auto; } #bg { position:absolute; z-index:-1; } #content { position:static; } </style> <![endif]--> </head> <body> <img src="images/background.jpg" alt="background" id="bg" /> <div id="content"> My content is here </div> hello. this has us stumped. here is the page: http://www.praxishosting.com/dev/csstest/testindex.htm it looks fine in IE, but in firefox, the div tag containing the background image does not appear to be expanding as the content grows. thus in firefox, you cannot see the background image in the bottom left hand cell (the only place it shows through). any suggestions? the style code for the background container is rather simple: Code: #container { width: 750px; background: url(../media/bkgrd.gif) repeat fixed center top; margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; height: 100%; } I have two bits of code that work in IE, but not in Firefox, and I have no idea why! They both use the background-image property Here is the first: Code: a.bio { display: block; width: 150px; height: 26px; background-image:url(C:\Apache 2.2\htdocs\_empaudio\test\images\btn_bio.jpg); background-repeat: no-repeat; } a.bio:hover { background-image:url(C:\Apache 2.2\htdocs\_empaudio\test\images\btn_bio_h.jpg); } Code: <a class="bio" href=""></a> And the second: Code: td.window { width:670; height:31px; background-image:url(C:\Apache 2.2\htdocs\_empaudio\test\images\window_nav_repeat.jpg); background-repeat:repeat-x; padding:0px; margin:0px; border-spacing:0px; border:0px; } Code: <td class="window"></td> Does ANYONE know why this is happening?? Site: project-jericho.com An organization recently hired me to give their web site a "face lift". Everything was working fine until I tried to tile a background within the main content div. If you go to the page in internet explorer, you'll see how it's supposed to look. In firefox, however, the background does not show up. If I set the min-height value to a certain number of pixels in #main, the background stops tiling after that many pixels (in firefox.) min-height: 100%; does not work. The css (if necessary): (this is the css for everything under /* content */ which I'm fairly sure is where I've isolated the problem to. Code: /* content */ #main { color: #333; margin: auto; padding: 0px; text-align: left; width: 680px; background-image: url('img/bgx2.jpg'); background-repeat: repeat-y; } #content{ width: 440px; float: left; padding: 10px 10px 20px 10px; } * html #content{ padding-top:20px; } #content .post { margin:0 0 3em 0; } #content .cat { margin:0; padding:0; color:#999; } #content .post-info { color:#777; text-align:right; } #content .post-info em { font-style:normal; float:left; margin:0 5px 0 0; } em.user { padding-left:12px; background:url(img/user.png) no-repeat left center; } em.date { padding-left:15px; background:url(img/date.gif) no-repeat left center; } #main .post-comments { background:url(img/comments.gif) no-repeat left center; padding-left:12px; } All I need for this code to do is to tile vertically in both Firefox and Internet Explorer. I've been wasting hours in this office on this and any help would greatly greatly appreciated. Thank you so much in advance. -Josh Hey all, am working on this: http://www.trshady.com/beyondfootball/ And have a problem with the 'wrapper' div ( which holds all the divs on the page ). In Internet explorer the background and border show up fine, but for some reason the wrapper background only is a large in height as the top banner .. Check it in both browsers so you know what I mean. Have made the wrapper background pink so it stands out. Thanks |
