CSS - Background Image Width, Two Background Images?

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:

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.

So I'm having what I think are CSS issues with a site...

I'm supposedly a "new user" though I've been registered for a long time, and just not used this account in a long time, so I can't show my URL's here... tried to abbreviate them... I'm not sure how to show you what the issues are if I'm not allowed to post URLs. Anyone with any suggestions there?

This looks fine in IE, but not in Firefox.

On (blocked) the main content that sits in the middle of the page sits in an 800px div called "page".

I've set the background color for that to be white: FFFFFF, which Internet Explorer seems to understand. But Firefox seems to be leaving "page" to be transparent. This means that either the left div (content) or the right div (reef-job) ends when the content inside of it ends, rather than continuing down to the bottom of the "page" content.

I'm not sure how to fix it for Firefox.

Again, it's all the pages inside of (carrieandjonathan [dot] com /island-reef-job) and the stylesheet is at (carrieandjonathan [dot] com / island-reef-job / mt-island-reef-job.css)

#page {
width: 800px;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 0px 0;
background-color:#ffffff;
}

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank-you in advance!

Warmest,

CSS 1, Netscape 4.x and background+width issue need workaround:
I am working on a website template and converting it to CSS. I have seperated my CSS1 from my CSS 2 sheet and am currently trying to get NN 4.x to do what I have read it won't do and have no idea how to make it do what I want. BTW:Please do not advise me to drop NN 4.x, unfortunately it is not within my power to do so.

What I need to do is put a background color on an H1 header that will be only as wide as the table cell (column) it is in. (3 column plus header and footer layout). BTW: I cannot drop the table either.

My problem is that when I get the background to work (instead of just surrounding the text) I cannot get it to be liquid and remain inside its cell. When I set the width to %'s it just pushes the other 2 columns out of the way even when the % is not the width of the column. Unfortunately, pixels are not flexible enough for this layout.

So, how do I get a background color on an H1 tag that fully expands to the width of the column (not just the text) using CSS 1 and NN 4.x while not destroying the table layout?
Thank you for your help-
Schach

PS: This is not an issue of my code, but an issue of the NN 4.x CSS support. So I do not need to have the code debugged, but instead I need a hack or method to outsmart the browser, so I can duplicate a site in CSS. This site is currently heavily reliant on tables, something we want to change, but can't unless we can reproduce the site in NN 4.x.
(You can email me if you would like to do that)

I've noticed a trend in recent CSS sites with a header, content and perhaps double footer. Each of these sections has a fixed width for the content but the backgrounds for each section are liquid and each has a unique colour.

I've been trying to replicate this effect on a clients site but I just can't seem to make it work. Does anyone have any ideas?

This is the technique I've been using:

Code:

<div id="header-fluid">
<div id="header-fixed">

<div id="header"></div>
<div id="nav"></div>

</div><!-- head-fixed -->
</div><!-- head-fluid -->

Code:

<div id="content-fluid">
<div id="content-fixed">

<div id="content"></div>

</div><!-- content-fixed -->
</div><!-- content-fluid -->

Code:

<div id="footer1-fluid">
<div id="footer1-fixed">

<div id="sponsors"></div>

</div><!-- footer1-fixed -->
</div><!-- footer1-fluid -->

Code:

<div id="footer2-fluid">
<div id="footer2-fixed">

<div id="copyright"></div>

</div><!-- footer2-fixed -->
</div><!-- footer2-fluid -->

Thanks for your time on this!!

Hi

I have a table which i want to add 2 background images too.
what i have is. one image with no-repeat at the top. Then for the rest of the table, i want to have a gradient background. Is this possible?

Hi Folks,
I've designed an H1 page heading within a DIV with rounded ends. and HTML text inbetween. It should appear as a horizontally expanding and contracting capsule. I can make one end rounded with a CSS background image in the DIV or the H1 - but how can I do the other? No tables allowed here and it has to be done only in the stylesheet. I've tried a BG in the DIV and a BG in the H1 but they don't line-up, even when there's no padding or margins.

Is it possible to somehow attach an image to one side of an element?
Thanks
John

Hello, I'm new to Dev Shed, I hope I won't seem like a fool here


Is there any way to have to background images?
I mean, I want to have a heading background image, and a footer background image to the same table.

longing to your replies>>>>

Is there some way to rig CSS to display 2 separate background images. I wanted to put the 2 images on opposite sides. I tried, but both IE 6 and Firefox 1.0.2 displayed only 1 bg image. Anyone got a suggestion?

Edit - Oh yeah...this is for the BODY tag. I thought I ought to mention that.

Hi there,

hopefully someone can help me out with some background image issues. I simply want a right hand section on my site, where i can fill it with content and it can expand appropriately as per the content and display a top, middle and bottom background image.

this is because the style of the site has curved edges, so this will be a top image with the curves, a centre image and a bottom image with bottom curves.

here is my code but none of the top or bottom background images show.

please help, thanking you in advance.

css:
#feature {
float:right;
width: 287px;
height: auto;
}
.featuretop {
background-image:url(../images/css/featuretop.gif);
background-position:top;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}
.featuremiddle {
background-image:url(../images/css/feature.gif);
background-position:center;
background-repeat:repeat-y;
}
.featurebottom {
background-image:url(../images/css/featurebottom.gif);
background-position:bottom;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}


html code:
<div id="feature">
<div class="marTOP10">
<div class="featuretop"></div>
<div class="featuremiddle"></div>
<div class="featurebottom"></div>
</div>
</div>

Hello, as the subject states I have a question about whether IE can display a background image on a tr and a td correctly. I have a table row with a repeating background then in the first cell in that row I have another background image that goes in the top left corner with a transparent background color on the cell so that the tr background can show though.

This works as it should in all browsers except IE where only the td background image appears and its transparent to the page background not the tr background.

This is the css:
Code:

.professor_forum_row {
	background: #ffffff url(../images/author_post_background.jpg) repeat top left;
}

.professor_corner_tab {
	background: transparent url(../images/article_sticky_author.jpg) no-repeat top left;
}

the html is just a table with those classes assigned to the row and first td.

Any ideas on why this is happening?

Thanks,
Ryan

I have a site that will be relying heavily on background images sitting behind all the tables. These backgrounds will work in concert with the overall background-color: property.

My question is this, on the style sheet, of which I would like to have ONE. Is there a way to change entire background-images for each page within the site.

In another post, we went over how to change images within the same <div> by simply making the <div> a holder and swapping the image on each page by using something like:

<div id="image" class="page_two">

Is there a way to do something similar using an entire background image? Or do I need a separate style sheet for each page? Perhaps the main style sheet which has a body like this

body
{
margin:0px;
}

and then attach an additional style sheet to each page that supersedes the body tag in the main sheet?

I hope I am making sense...


thanks

K. I have my content bg which is to repeat, but I want to put like another background image set to the right in the content box.

<div id="special_feature_top">

CSS Coding
*************
#special_feature_mid {
padding: 1px 0px 1px 10px;
background-image: url('images/content_bg.jpg');
}

That's the coding for the image now just with the content_bg. Now the other image I just want set to the background also so text can over lap or other images. It's a really nice opacity image that blends in perfect. I just want it in background also positioned to the right. thanks

I have a website that I am trying to add some graphical enhancements to. I made them, and I think they look great! The problem is that they do not look the same when viewed in IE and I am not even sure where to start fixing them, as the problem doesn't make sense to me.

starcraft-source.com/sandbox/

That is the URL to the page. It works great in FF but as I have said IE is messed up. Any help anyone can offer would be awesome.

Thank you in advance.

Hi

I have 3 background images that make up the background for my navigation you can see here http://dmumford.bizhat.com/test/about.htm

When viewed in FF and Netscape it breaks in 3 positions, in IE just below the top image.

Does anyone know why, and can they please help me

Thanks
