CSS - Can't Center My Background Image
I'm working with a php script that i purchased. In my admin_login.php page is the entry for the image and my entry from my layout.css page. I'm only seeing half my background image. I cant seem to get it centered.

Can you help me please? Thanks in advance, Scotty13 Similar TutorialsI have a problem with my background image. I need to centre the background image and center the container div on top of that. I have used the below CSS which has the desired effect in Mozilla but for some reason in ie, the background moves depending on browser size when it needs to stay put! Any ideas? body { font-size: 0.70em; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center; background:#ffffff url('../images/content_bg.gif') top center no-repeat; color: #303030; height:100%; min-height:100%; } #container { width: 900px; text-align:left; position: absolute; margin-left:-450px; left:50%; z-index: 100; } So I have a page where the content itself will be an 800px wide light column down the center of the page. But the background (to the left and right of the column) I want to be a gradient lightblue. I would usually accomplish this by making the background color lightblue and simply attaching the gradient to the top using CSS. Then I would create a table for the center column and make it the light background color. The problem is that on short pages, I want the center column to extend all the way to the bottom of the page, irregardless of the content. Unfortunately, height="100%" or it's CSS variants don't work for tables, cells, or even DIVS so I can't force the table to extend down to the bottom of the page. The only way it seems I could do this, then, is by using the body background image attribute or body background CSS to make the column color the background for the entire center of the document, but those attributes are already both used up creating the gradient. Any thoughts on how I might go about this. A sample of what I'm getting at is at http://www.poweredpages.com/fdr/index2.php. There, you can see the background gradient and the column that should extend to the bottom, even if there's very little text. Thanks, Jeremy Hey All, Firstly, I apologise if this has already been answered. The search feature wasn't working for me, and to be frank, I didn't know what to search either! Secondly, I'm developing a site with Joomla and am implementing my own design. I'm a bit of a CSS newbie, well un-experienced at least, and fail at being able to pick cross-browser bugs. Thus I have turned to the masters for help! Ok - So this is what it should look like: BrowserShots in IE8 And this is what it shouldn't look like: BrowserShots in IE7 What it appears to be doing, to me, is pushing the logo div to the next line, as the pillmenu div is floated to the left. In the process of doing this, it stuffs up the margins and pushes the whole layout out. On a second level, it appears to me that the background image is off centred, which COULD be BrowserShots being funny, but I'm not sure? Live site is at: techmonkeys.com.au I would love it if anybody could help me identify what bugs are occuring here. Or if it's just an error on my behalf, which it sure could be! I also highly appreciate any advice, tips, or criticism you want to provide. But not about my menu! That's not done :P Thanks in advance. Cheers, Chris I am trying to build this re-sizable box for an iPod Touch application. mo-de . net/d/bg.jpg #content_container_top {width:50%; height:13px; padding: 0px; position: relative;} #content_container_top_left {width:13px; height:13px; padding: 0px; top: 0px; left: 0px; position: absolute; background-image: url(../images/content_container_a/tl.png); background-repeat: no-repeat;} #content_container_top_repeat {width:100%; height:13px; padding: 0px; top: 0px; left: 13px; position: absolute; background-image: url(../images/content_container_a/ttrepeat.png); background-repeat: repeat-x;} <div id="content_container_top"><!--Start top with three columns --> <!-- Top columns 1 --> <div id="content_container_top_left"> </div> <!-- Top columns 2 --> <div id="content_container_top_repeat"> </div> <!-- Top columns 3 --> <div id="content_container_top_right"> </div> </div><!--End top with three columns → This is a rough version of what I was thinking. In the old days I could do this easily with tables but I am trying to do this with divs. My question is how can I create three columns the center has a tiled background that resizes. How do I make the center duplicate its self and not over ride the right side? I know how to make fixed size three column layouts but not sure how to make dynamic re-sizable three columns. I know there has to be an easy answer to this question but I'm at a loss! How do I center an image using CSS? Thanks! BB How would I center an image vertically in a div that has varying height? Normally I would set a line-height and then a vertical-align but the container is of varying size dependent on content . The only way I can think of is to make the image a background and do background-position: center center; Is that the only workaround? I have used an image file "picture.PNG" like this : <h1><img src="picture.PNG" /></h1> then the css is h1{ text-align: center; margin: 20px; padding: 10px; height: 100px; } But it will not align the image in the center ? Am i going about this the wrong way ? or is it just a syntax error ? Hi all, This is probably simple, but I can't get it working for some reason. At http://www.bartlett-family.net/chri...ett/index2.html I want the 8 image links below the "Quote of the moment" to be centered between the vertical lines. I'd appreciate help. CSS is here and the class in "centerinline". I've checked the class, and it's peachy, I've added a style= "margin: 0 auto;" tag, a style="text-align: center;" tag. I've tried everything I can think of. The image isn't receiving any parent styling that is holding it back from centering that I am aware of. Will somebody please learn me! URL is : www . dalcon .com / business / skype-for-asterisk/ the image I'm referring to is the skype for asterisk image. Sorry about broken link, I don't have the rep around here to not be considered a spammer yet I guess (it won't let me post a link) After much, much reading, I am still having this problem: I have a background image that i want centered horizontally on the page. You can see what i'm trying to accomplish at stipepainting.com From there i understand how to nest menus and content at the right position on the background. I just can't start by centering the image. this is what i have: Code: <body> <div id="A"> <center> <img src="background.gif"> </center> <div id="A1"> Content text. </div> </div> </body> and here is the css: Code: #A { position: absolute; width: 300px; height: 200px; } #A1 { position: absolute; left: 150px; top: 150px; width: 200px; height: 100px; } I have read a bunch of links suggested by posters, and can't quite find out the answer. I think it would be about 3 lines of code, and if someone could just give me that, i won't need to take another asprin. thanks 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. BIO BIO CSS i would like for both the image and text to be centered on page-- they are just a little off.... am using FOX as primary browser -- but IE displays pretty much the same-- anyone got a fix for this??? its late and i have been over the coding a million times but just dont see the solution it right now thanks in advance! I am trying to get the background image for #feature-stripe to be fluid. I want it to expand and contract equally with the images just above and below it. The other images are in the #banner & #main-center. I can't seem to get the #feature-stripe to do the same. Also, I am using the #main-left as a placeholder for position. I tried to eliminate it, but things to line back up like I think they should. Side note: I am using XHTML 1.0 Strict DTD. Any help or if someone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

I will worry about the others later. Therefore, I may be back with more questions later. Hi, Here's the site I'm working with: http://www.cjfusion.com I want to get that image centered on the browser window and then depending on how big the viewers screen is, the browser will cover up the left and the right. I hope that makes sense. I almost want it to be fluid, but I'm unsure how to do that. Ask questions if this doesnt make sense. Its hard to explain. -CJ 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. hey, i have 2 CSS problems. number 1: my main <div> is not centered in IE. it's fine in FF, mozilla, and opera, but it stays all the way to the left in IE. Code: #main { width: 77%; margin: 0 auto; border: 1px solid #999; overflow: auto; background: #970303; color: #FFF; -moz-border-radius-topleft: 20px; -moz-border-radius-topright: 20px; -moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 20px; -moz-border-radius-bottomright: 20px; } Code: <div id='main' align='center'> number 2: i can't figure out this gradient background stuff. i have an image, 1 px wide and 1000 px high. it works fine, but once theres enough information on a page, and its longer than the 1000px, the image starts over and looks extremely unprofessional. how can i make so that the one gradient image is stretched out for the length of the page? thanks. I'm trying to position the image below vertically center and horizontally left to no avail. Its horizontally left but centers the top of the image in the center of the page. What am I doing wrong? <DIV style="position: absolute; top: 50%; left: 0px; border: none"><img src="images/right.jpg"></img></DIV> It seems I get one or the other, but not all. I've tried margin: 0 auto; and that didn't work. |
