CSS - Yes Doctype, No Backgrounds!
I've just installed a HTML Doctype declaration after having issues making my webpage work on Firefox and IE. After installing the declaration, the colour of my top nav-bar refuses to change... it stays white, and the text, unreadable. This happens on IE and Opera, but works fine with Firefox.
I've also been recieving complaints that my page is non-functioning with the font appearing "way too small". If anyone can give me any ideas, and also point out a simple explanation of the difference between the box model and the W3 layout model, I'd be grateful... Thanks for the advice people gave me last time; I at least managed to get the page working with Firefox... Link to page Similar Tutorialsi 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? 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 Hey all I'm a web programmer and a moderately skilled web designer, and I've got a bit of a problem. I assist in running a forum at midnafanforum.com and I was asked quite a while ago to set it up so a border ran down either side - this down the left side and this down the right. The images should repeat for as long as the page goes on for (it has a varying height, depending on the main content). The temporary solution we've used is this -one image containing both sides of the background, and whilst on one fairly uncommon resolution of 1400x3200 this looks fine, obviously on all others it looks stupid. Any help would be much appreciated - considering I'm not very experienced in CSS it'd be helpful if the code itself could be given, or I could at least be walked through fixing this. Thanks in advance Cheeseweasel EDIT: How annoying, URLs are blocked. midna fan forum dot com is the address. I swear I'm not spamming for more traffic, honestly. 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! Janusz 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 Hi, I have a design that uses "rounded tabs", however each tab is a different size, so I cannot just use a standard-sized tab background image. Is there a way I can use a left rounded image and right rounded image with the middle a solid colour as a background instead of inline images? Thanks! I am creating my layout using div's but they are not showing up in my browser. Can you see anything in my code that looks wrong? Thanks for your help! HERE'S MY HTML FILE......

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. 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 =) - Shell. I'm currently customizing a theme for a Drupal site and am having a bit of an issue with background images on some content. I have 1 class and an HTML element that I'm trying to apply the style to. I have a non-repeating background applied to the title class which is positioned to the left of the area. The second is a background I'm attempting to tile across the x-axis of the h2 element. This second background does not show while the first one is showing. Is there a way around this? I'm assuming that because it's the same element, I won't be able to get away with this and will have to find another solution. Here is my HTML Code: <h2 class="title"><a href="/drupal/node/1">Welcome to the Caustic Guild!</a></h2> CSS Code:
#mcol .title {
background: url(/drupal/themes/caustic/images/icon_post.gif) no-repeat 0px 2px;
}
#mcol h2{
background: url(/drupal/themes/caustic/images/mcol_head.jpg) repeat-x;
margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
padding: 2px 0px 6px 35px;
font-size: 180%;
letter-spacing: -1px;
text-align: left;
border: 3px solid #78788a;

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? Janet 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. 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;
}

Please help. I am having quite a time finding out if it's possible to use the AlphaImageLoader hacks on a png to make it a background image. I need this for drop shadows on a gradient page background. I have found a site that does have working png transparent backgrounds he http://thedesignspace.net/css/transparentPNG.htm For some reason, even though my code is basically the same with the image location changed, it fails to work for me, while that page does. My code can be seen at http://codymays.net/~private_ftp/theed. If you look at the source you'll see the IE specific css file. Works fine in opera/ff. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Hi all, Just an opinion I would like to get from the folks here. For example: Let say you create a navigation bar thats contained within a div. You make a background image that is gradient from top to middle to bottom - dark/light/dark. You add your text links and align them over the middle lighter area of the div background, looks great. Now do you compensate for someone using a different text size? Maybe creating 3 different DIVS - two to fade from dark to light both ways, and the middle one being the light color of the gradient to hold the text? Or do you just forget about it and let the background repeat if the font size changes? This is one of those pet peave things of mine, where I'd create images for links and have the peace of mind that my design won't be broken. I made a new site design in pure css, that in my opinion looks sweet, but I'm ready to trash it and go back to a table/image heavy design because I can't have absolute control of how it will look with all the variables considered. Would love to hear opinions! Hello all, I've been scratching my head on this one for a bit. First of all, here's the site I'm working on: http://dev.discoverahost.com If you'll note, the background for the content is currently blank. I'm trying to get a background to cover that area. Here's the basic structure for that page: Code: <div id="main_header"> </div> <div id="main_navigation"> Home :: About :: Link :: Such and Such </div> <div id="content_wrap"> <div id="image_below_nav"> </div> <div id="content_main_header"> </div> <div id="content_main"> Lorem Ipsum blah blah blah </div> </div> Note: That's not all the code. You can look at the souce for the full thing. The background I'm trying to apply I want to go on the wrapper background (content_wrap). I've got it all defined in the CSS file, located he http://dev.discoverahost.com/css/style.css The problem is that the wrapper isn't expanding vertically to include the background, even though I've got plenty of text inside of another nested div. Now it works if I put content outside of these divs ... which I really don't want to do. Maybe I've got my structure all wrong for doing this kind of thing, but any and all help is very much appreciated. Thanks! - Adam I am trying to use divs to create multiple backgrounds for my site. One on top of the other. Specifically, I want 3, but I will settle for 2. The problem is that when I try to create container divs and add backgrounds, nothing happens. I think this is because there is no content so the div remains collapsed. However, if I add a width or height, it does not stretch out for all resolutions. If I use 100% for the width, it does nothing. I really need some help! Thanks! Code: body {
margin-left:0px;
margin-top:0px;
margin-right:0px;
margin-bottom:0px;
padding:0px;
background-color:#DADADA;
background-image: url(images/metal9.jpg);

CSS Code: Original - CSS Code #leftSide { position: absolute; height: 100%; width: 155px; top: 0px; left: 0px; background-image: url("../Images/SideImages/left.gif"); background-repeat: repeat-y; z-index: 0; } #rightSide { position: absolute; height: 100%; width: 115px; top: 0px; right: 0px; background-image: url("../Images/SideImages/right.gif"); background-repeat: repeat-y; z-index: 0; }
In EVERY OTHER BROSWER, that code makes a background repeat. No how in the world do I make IE repeat my background. Is the background-repeat: repeat-y; making the difference? I hate IE. I don't *think* there's a way to do this, but I figured I should ask. I'm looking ot generate an HTML table where each cell's background displays... say... a green circle. I'd prefer to avoid creating an image to do this, as some browsers retrieve the image over and over again for each occurence on page load, if there are mutliple occurences of an image on a page. Doesn't anyone know if there's a way to do this with CSS/HTML? Some other relatively easy & efficent way? I'm open to any suggestions. Thx! Steny |
