CSS - 3 Divs, One Center- Two Backgrounds

i've heard talk of text-align wrapper hacks, or just plain using tables...

i got my main container div to align center by setting it to "margin:auto"

but that code doesnt work for the divs inside that div.... can you please help me out... cuz i dont even know what the text-align hack is... i just have heard of it/

Hi.

How would I go about horizontally centering a number of divs within another parent div which has a set width of 500px? There maybe 2,3 or 4 divs of varying length within the parent div but no matter the number I always want them centered within the parent div.

Hi all,

I know there are certain tricks to vertically center texts or images in a div area.

And I have read somewhere there are plans to avoid current complexity compared with tables.

For example, provided I use same CSS...

Code:

div,table{
  width: 250px;
  height: 100px;
  border: 1px solid red;
  text-align: center;
}

...we optain well vertically centered text in this table...

Code:

<table>
  <tr><td>this IS vertically centered</td></tr>
</table>

...but not in this div based one...

Code:

<div>this IS NOT vertically centered</div>

I ask, do you know an easy way to acomplish the same we get with tables?

Thanks!

I am using the following code how do I change it so that it would show up in the center of the brower window?

Thanks
Tim

This might be simple, and might not be. Ok, I'm a sort of CSS noob, so bear with me if this is simple

I have 3 images that I created, and I plan to make a fluid layout with them. As you would expect, one is the top, one is the filler that expands, and one is the footer image. Now this would be raher simple to do, but there is one hard point: At the end of the whole layout, there is a gradient. This makes it look really cool in like login boxes(the image sizes are optimized for those), but that means that there is a large chunk of the footer where I want text to overlap from the content area. Is this possible? I will attach images if someone doesn't get my rambling

i am trying to create a website and i know you can create backgrounds by going to photoshop and doing like a gradient with the image width of 1px and then place that into the css and it will repeat. i was wondering how can i make like an image as my background like 'http://fortysevenmedia.com/about/'

i dont want it to be a background you create in photoshop and use background image and then it looks really weird repeating.

i guess im wondering what other ways are there of making backgrounds for websites?

I'm working on my personal website and needed something quick so I found a free template I liked and started changing things as needed. The way the header works is it uses a background img for the nav so it displays off both sides of the browser. This image scrolls up as the page does. To make it look more interesting I wanted to add a simple background image to visually box in the content... but I need this one to be fixed. Every solution I've tried doesn't seem to work. I'm posting separate test links with a description why its not working. (I'm a new user so you'll have to copy/paste links. Figured it'd be easier for you to see it than post 8 different code tags).

First thing's first: Images I'm moving around a
bg_boarder.jpg and bg_general.jpg

bradyoo.com/test.html
Both bg imgs in body {} - boarder img scrolls.

bradyoo.com/test02.html
Boarder img fixed in wrapper {} - boarder img displays on top of bg_general by YO logo.

bradyoo.com/tes03t.html
Boarder img fixed in body {}, general img in header{} - General image doesn't display beyond wrapper.

I even tried fixing everything (not the optimal result, but I will use it if this is the only solution)

bradyoo.com/test04.html
Both bg fixed in body {}, position: fixed in header {} - I added the fixed position in the header to keep the nav from scrolling but the embeded content displays on top of the header when scrolling.

Hello all, Wondering if those of you who love netscape more than I do can help me,

This is a little css script to get a bg image to show in the top right hand corner of a table the table

Its called from <td class="rightnav">

Is there something that I i have done that makes netscape not display the image? I'm resonably new to Css, but I have a pretty good handle on it, just not with what netscape supports. Does it have to be called in a <p> tag?

I have tried this and a <Div> tag but it wont display, but in Explorer it is fine ... I'd apreciate any suggestions its really frustrating

.rightnav {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
font-weight: bold;
background-image: url(images/continued.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-attachment: fixed;
background-position: top right;
height: 100%;
white-space: normal;
display: block;
overflow: hidden;
}

any help apreciated =)

Hi - I'm playing with the Css Zen Garden example. I'm basically trying to do a real simple layout - semi-transparent boxes, that switch from a background image to a solid color when the mouse hovers. On firefox, its working pretty much the way I want. IE pretty much completely chokes though, and I can't figure out why - it doesn't want to apply background images or colors to the <div>'s. My example is he http://kc9ddi.poromenos.org/zen and the style sheet is at http://kc9ddi.poromenos.org/zen/sample.css

I can't figure out what IE's doing with the background colors and images. I'd appreciate any help anyone would offer.

Here's an example of css for a div

Code:

#preamble {
    border-style: groove;
    border-width: 0.2ex;
    border-color: blue;
    padding: 0px 1ex;
    background: url(grad1.png) #ADD8E6;
    opacity: .50;
    filter: alpha(opacity=50);
    zoom: 1;
}

#preamble:hover {
    background: #ADD8E6;
}

Hi,

I'm trying to do a design with: http://xlibrisclients.co.uk/flybynite/new/V1.htm in mind. I want the content to have a scrollbar if content goes off the page... basically want to achieve the look and feel of a frame base site such as: http://www.flybynite.co.uk/website/ but only using CSS and tables.

Please help!

I would like to do the following on a web page but not sure how. Tried a few things but it didnt display what I was hoping for...

I want essentially a 3 layered background image.
The main background is one image that is tiled in all directions
The second image is tiled in x but attached to the top of the screen
The third image is the same as the second image but attached to the bottom of the screen.

Over the top of this I want to use html tables and have the background displayed through the empty table cells. Is this possible? Any help appreciated

Drumroll, almost. Scrolling image, image swap, and css image backgrounds.

This one is working almost exactly as I would like for it to in IE and FF.
http://www.mtn.ncahec.org/web/grace/bagwell/test5.asp

But, if you scroll down, why are the backgrounds not going all the way to the bottom in FF? Starts acting weird around item 29...... Works fine in IE6.

Thank you, thank you, please, please?

At the moment, my BODY tag contains the following CSS:

Code:

BODY {
background: url(images/gradients/bg_top.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
}

The bg_top.jpg file is an image 200px high, and 3px wide. This displays nicely at the top of my page. It is a gradient from dark grey which fades out to a pattern of simple squares. I would then like these squares to be repeated across the whole of my background.

What I wanted to do was to set a second background image that would display underneath the gradient, but this didn't appear to work. Looking around Google, it appears that you can only set the one background for the body tag. Is this the case? If so, is it possible to set it up so that the square pattern repeats itself across the whole page, but underneath the gradient at the top?

Many thanks.
