CSS - How To Make An Image Stretch In Css?
I am working on this template: http://www.oswd.org/design/preview/id/2790 & I need both the white & green content boxes to stretch as I add content. I don't know if this is even possible but would like to know if there is an easier way than having to create another (more stretched) image. Also as the content will be changing frequently I don't want to have to change from one image to another if I can help it.
Appreciate any help you can give. Similar TutorialsCSS newb here and this is my first full CSS page layout ever, so go easy. Some of the page elements do not stretch properly to match the page content. I also tried to add a few bits to make a sticky footer, and in doing so I sort of confused myself as to where the problem is. Here's a link to the page: http://www.crackin.com/cbled/index.html and here's the code: Code:

Any help is much appreciated. Hi, Just wondering if anyone can tell me how i would go about stretching a background image for my website so as it stretches with different page sizes and resolutions an all the rest Ok, I have a gradient and i'm using it as the background for a <div> I want the whole background to show. So it's always dark at the bottom and light at the top. I have my image gradient.jpg and I want it to stretch or shrink vertially but repeat horizontally. Heres what I have: Code:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
div {
width: 50%;
height: 50%;
background-image: url(background.jpg);
}
-->
</style>
Like that it will only display half of the gradient if the gradient is longer than 50% of the page. I want it to stretch or shrink the image so that the whole gradient is displayed. I tried using the background-size: 100% attribute but it diddnt do anything :-\ Thanks for any help. Here's my CSS Code:
#header {
position: fixed;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 125px;
top: 0;
background-color: #ccffcc;
background-image: url(images/topbackground2.jpg);
}
Here's my HTML Code: <div id="header" > <img src="images/spacefiller.jpg" align="left"> <a href="mainFrame.html" target="mainFrame"><img src="images/trial3.jpg" border="0" id="courseAssistant" align="left"/></a > <img src="images/blend.gif" width="100%" height="20px" style="position: absolute;left: 122px;top:125px; "> </div> The problem is that I want the <img src=blend> to stretch the width of the div. The image is only 1px wide so I need it to stretch to fill up the header. The code I have works perfect for Mozilla but it won't work with IE. In IE the img stretches 122px farther than the div and causes there to be horizontal scroll bar at the bottom. I can't seem to figure this one out. Thanks in advance for the help and suggestions. Hi there, I'm making a CakePHP application to display my friend's artwork. I'm having trouble with the style sheet though. The header and footer are made of two fading images. I've used the background image property to stretch these images to fill the divs and have made the divs stretch to fill the width of the page. At this point it's probably easiest to see what I mean by taking a look for yourself- http://www.seb.webege.com/paintings/gallery If you view this page in Chrome or Firefox then you'll see the desired effect with the image filling the width of the page. The problem comes with Safari and IE. In these browsers the image does not stretch to fill the screen. I am not an expert at HTML/CSS and can't for the life of me work out what has gone wrong or what I can do to fix it, after numerous google searches I'm still none the wiser and I'm just not seeing the problem. Can anyone advise me how to get the images to stretch to the browser width in Safari and Explorer? Any help would really be appreciated. Many thanks, Nick I got this WP style, and I edited it quite a bit. Code: #menu {
clear: right;
float: left;
position: relative;
padding:0 10px 0 10px;
margin:0 0 0 34px;
width: 160px;
/* border-left: 1px solid #bbaf95;
border-right: 1px solid #bbaf95; */
background: #fff rl(wp-images/bg.png) repeat-y 100% 0;
}
The problem being is that the image border does not reach the where the css borders were, and it does not stretch 100% to the bottom either. Even more, it takes three seconds to load from where it use to take less than one. Check it out: http://randomized.us Thanks in advance. I'm trying to go through examples out there and get a handle on stretching background images with an opacity text box overlaying the image. I have it working in IE7, IE6, and Firefox 2.0.0.16 with one weird little thing. In Firefox only, if I have the page designated as the home page or I hit refresh, the background image doesn't appear - just a completely white page. If I have it as a link or highlight the url itself and hit enter, the background appears. Any ideas? It's pretty hideous - it's a test, but here's the url: http://www.mahec.net/default3.aspx Here's the code: Code: <%@ Page Language="VB" %>

I would like to learn how to make an Image Opt in Box / Form. Similar to a search box, but with a nice image I design in Photoshop. I would like to edit the text fields in the image. Name Telephone Can someone help? If anyone can help me with this, I will owe my life, because I'm in over my head with a project for my electronic media class and I'm not good enough with CSS. I need to make divs appear when I hover over images. The images aren't links, just anchors. I have a long page with a ton of images, and I need divs (with tables inside) to appear when I hover over those images. Also, if possible.. I'd like the appearing divs to move relative to the browser, but if not, I'll settle for absolute. It must be so simple, but I'm waaay too stressed to get this to work. :[ I have the following HTML and I am wanting to make the link larger. Code: <div id="user4"> <div class="moduletable"> <ul class="menu"> <li class="item53"><a href="http://rss.com"><img alt="rss" src="/joomla/images/stories/rss-64x64.png"></a> </ul> </div> </div> I have tried the following CSS: Code:
.moduletable li a{
height:50px;
}
I have painted myself into a corner, and it's time to paint myself out...Hopefully with help from someone here! For the images on my website, I have added a two color border around every image (in Photoshop)...A 1-pixel green border (#6e888f) on the outside of the image, and then a 1 pixel white border just inside that. See example he mableyhandler dot com As I add more and more images to the site, it is getting harder to keep up with adding the border in Photoshop every time. Is there a (semi-easy) way to do this in HTML? OR maybe in CSS? The challenge is that it needs to be a double border...And, it needs to be a permanent design element (the image is clickable, but the border colors should not change on rollover). Thanks very much I have a gradient background image that goes from dark to light. At the bottom of the table if the body of text grows too large the table will stretch past the length of the background gradient image exposing the bgcolor for the page (not acceptable). If I change the bgcolor of the table the color is applied over the background image. Isn't there a way to fix this with CSS? Thanks for any help!!! i am trying to use CSS to position an embeded .swf rotating cube so that it is always at the bottom of a webpage and is unaffected by scrolling. i've managed to make it start out at the bottom but it always scrolls up with the scroll bar. i realize ie6 has trouble with fixed postioning, so i was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to get around it without using javascript? here's my page: http://www.myspace.com/marx0i0 and here are some examples of what im trying to do: http://bonrouge.com/test/fixed.htm http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/fixedPosition.html finally, here is my code: <embed allowScriptAccess="never" allowNetworking="internal" SRC="http://www.geocities.com/marx0i0/untitled.swf" HEIGHT=200 WIDTH=200 STYLE= "position: absolute; center:0px; bottom: 0px; overflow: auto;" WMODE= "transparent"> thanks very much for any help! Even when I zoom out to the least point, I want my background image in my webpage to stay normal size. How do I do this? Is there any way to make divs stretch to fit the content of the div? I don't want to hear about how to make them stretch to the size of the page. How do you get them to streth to fit what is in them? Can someone please tell me what the font-stretch property within CSS does? I have been playing around with the following online example, but the way the text is rendered never changes. [access the world wide web]w3schools.com/js/tryit.asp?filename=try_dom_style_fontstretch Could someone please tell me how to use the font-stretch property? I am just trying to see what it does. Thank you! I have been trying to work a lot with CSS3 to rotate, scale, etc. One effect I've been trying to figure out is how to stretch something. I could scale it along the y axis but that's not really stretching. A stretch would mean the top and bottom (or left and right) sides would curve inward. How can I distort an element in this fashion? Hi, I am editing a dynamically driven site and I don't have access to edit the HTML code, just the CSS. I have a <div> with content in it within a <td> tag. When the div stretches past the width of the <td> tag it makes the table cell wider. Is there any way in CSS to have it not stretch the width of the cell? The <div> has an id="mylinks" on it, however the <td> or the <table> doesn't have any id or class on them. I'm pully my hair out trying to figure out a fix, any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks in advance Hello... I'm having some trouble. I have a container div set to 100% width. I have 2 small fixed width divs floated right and left and then a div between them that needs to stretch to fufill the 100% width while showing the background image of the container div. Works in Firefox, IE7... not so much. Any help is appreciated in advance CSS #container { width: 100%; background: url('images/topM.gif') repeat; } #leftFloat { width: 30px; float: left; } #rightFloat { #width: 30px; float: right; } #middleStretch { height: 25px; } --------------------------- XHTML <div id="container"> <div id="leftFloat"/>image goes here</div> <div id="rightFloat">image goes here</div> <div id="middleStretch">this div should stretch to fill the space between the left & right floats showing while repeating container background image</div> <!--end #container--></div> |
