Any help welcome thanks Rich I'm working on a pet project on the off chance that I could be hired by a small business referral organization in the city where I live, so this isn't super urgent. I'm also not a web developer by trade, more IT, so if I make any obvious mistakes, feel free to point them out. I've got a simple absolute-positioned two-column layout and a two-color background that I want to tile vertically behind it. The problem seems to be that the browsers ( IE and FF, haven't tried chrome/safari/opera) seem to think that the body ends at the bottom of the logo I set on top, and won't tile it beyond the bottom of the image.

Also, I'm working on getting that footer centered about 30px from the bottom of the page, without running up into whatever content may be above it. I think I might be able to figure that one out on my own, though. Like I said, no rush. This isn't a paid gig My code is below. The problem is the images in leftFloat & rightFloat are transparent png's and the middle background image stretches into those divs are appear behind the transparent png's in Firefox only. This does not happen in IE. I've tried setting different background images, background image to none and nothing seems to work. Any ideas are appreciated. CSS #container { width: 100%; background: url('images/topM.gif') repeat; } #leftFloat { width: 30px; float: left; } #rightFloat { #width: 30px; float: right; } #middleStretch { height: 25px; min-height: 1% } --------------------------- 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> Hi Guys, I'm building a page, and the body has been given a background color. I have a container DIV, and within it are several divs that hold individual elements. I need the background of the container div and everything in it to remain white, regardless of the color of the body background. <!--- Body tag ---> body { background: #FF00AA; color: #000000; font: .8em arial, helvetica, sans-serif; margin: auto; padding:0px; } <!--- container div----> #pages { background-color:#FFFFFF; width: 900px; } <!--- nested container divs ---> #pages title { display: inline; width: 375px; float: left; padding:0 .25em .5em 0; } #pages categories { display: inline; width: 20%; float: left; padding:0 0 0 0; } But this isn't working.. What am I doing wrong here? I just need to make sure EVERYTHING's background is white when it's placed within the container div (pages). hello!

if you try to downsize the width of the browser window (to 100px, for example) the yellow background will move to left I hope the problem is clear exposed...thank you Hey, I use div's to create my page structure (you can see it on the screenshot) http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/...tructurege3.jpg The green part is the navigation and the blue part the contents of the page. But as you see the colors both dont fill up till the bottom of the document. And if i set: height: 100%; then it will fill up to the bottom, but when the contents gets to big and a scrollbar is needed, then the part that you scroll down is not filled up with the colors anymore. Does anybody know how to fix this? Thanks in advance. http://cwin.redirectme.net/ext/ch/test.html ^ On IE, this works fine, the parent is red as expected, whereas on Mozilla, the parent has a white background. If i have no floats, it works as expected 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. 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.

as you can prob see i currently have the image in the top like this background-image:url(../images/logo/gglogo.JPG); but will it being a tall image it would be better across them both... any help would be appreciated. Thanks RF Hi I am redesigning my blog and took it down completely. I want to place the day's text post on the day's photo post on top of the latter, while graying out the photo. Is that possible without using flash? Hi all, Can anybody tell me how I can put a transparent gif in the top right hand corner over an image? I wish I could just do it by making the image a background image and putting the gif over that, but I can't. Cheers. I'm trying to create a little background image for each image on this page. A kind of crappy looking polaroid type background image. It works fine in Firefox, but not in IE. Any ideas? http://www.rhizaowns.com/holly/index.php I am trying to put labels below images on my new site design. See: www.jwsuretybonds*com/jw09 I figured out how to get them vertically aligned, but I am having problems with the horizontal, as when I change the browser size, they move. Here is one of the examples: Code:
#homepage-bar h2.construction {
position:fixed;
top:225px;
left:505px;
}
I tried changing to position: absolute; I also tried to use percentages on the left: I know this is easy, but I can't find the fix after googling for 30 minutes. Help! Code: div.top {
border: 10px solid #CCCCCC;
border-bottom-width: 0px;
padding: 0px;
background-image: url(menutile.jpg);
}
The code above yields this . It is uneven with the normal image, though both are the same size. I simply want to tile the bg image to the border even with the normal menu images. What am I doing wrong? I haven't tried this before, so if I'm way off beat, I'll take directions. What I'm trying to do is take a psd file and make a webpage from it. So far, I think I've got the images cut correctly. I tried using divs to begin with, but found I had to apply position:relative to compensate for extra spacing coming after images and divs. I'm placing an image then a div then an image. The spacing between the two are different. I've tried padding:0 and margin:0 just about everywhere I could think of putting it, but that didn't fix it. So, I used RP. But, after getting it to look right in Safari, but not Firefox [just checked before posting here], I found that making the text bigger caused the divs and images to overlap. So, I thought about tables. Yeah, same thing, so I figure I must not know something pretty basic and was wondering if anyone could help. Both pairs of files validate. Here are the links for the: div based layout and it's css file AND table based layout and it's css file Just in case this looks absolutley nuts on other browsers, here is a picture of where I'm trying to get to. I'm feeling a little tortured over this one |
