HTML - Creating A Background Gradient
i want to be able to make a gradient left to right on my page background color, but am having no luck finding a reference page.
what attributes would i add to my CSS file? thanks! The FlyerFly Similar TutorialsHello community! AM learning HTML and am new on this forum. I was wondering how can someone make a background with gradient effect and oblique lines (or transparent squares sometimes) as on this webpage: http://www.brandeis.edu/learning/arts.html. Thank you all! Hi, Can anyone help me with some code. I have a gradient image and I need it to completely fill the page, without any border 100% height and width. Whenever I try it it does something strange! Thanks... Hi Well the title spoke for me I have the gradient colours I want, except there going sideways. How do I make them go downwards? Cheers [EDIT:] This is my code: <body style="filter:progidXImageTransform.Microsoft.Gradient(endColorstr='#C1CFE4', startColorstr='#ffFFFF', gradientType='1');"> Hello - I'm currently in the early stages of putting together a new website, and I'm trying to have a top-bottom color gradient (in the "header" area of the page) with a background image (i.e. picture) as well. I can do each individually no problem (gradient with a 1px repeat-x image in css; and the image quite obvious), but I want to keep the gradient consistent across the entire top of the screen, regardless of the viewer's screen resolution, and the picture centered. Anyway to de-couple the two? You can see the current one-big-image solution here (and I want to see the gradient continuing on forever): http://tomatomountain.com/738/ I could just make the background image really wide, but it seems a waste of space and file size. First Hi. I am new to this forum and quite newbie in HTML...I looked around the web, but info can be messy sometimes and I remain stucked...so here am I hoping I will solve this. Thanks to you in advance :-) SO : The problem is recurrent and simple : I HAVE A PSD BACKGROUND THAT I WANT TO STRECH ALL ALONG MY HTML PAGE...BUT WHATEVER I DO IT DOES NOT WORK , it repeats but does not strech. I am working with D8. Somebody could guide on this ? Hi, How can I set a background gradient for a cell in a table? (i.e., start colour:#222222; end colour:#000000) The size of the cell may vary so a tiled image wouldn't work. Thanks. I have a background image written like (<div style="background-image:url(gbackground.gif); width:100%; height:100%). the problem is that only the right side of the image stretches to fill out the right side of the browser window. as seen here only the right grey column stretches to fill out the browser window, while the left side stays at its original width. in the image the columns are equal width. any way i can fix this? thx. Hi guys I have this code: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <meta name="language" content="english"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css"> <title>help</title> <style> body { background-color:#515151; font-size:100%; } #container { width:780px; margin:auto; background-color:#fff; overflow:hidden; } #left { float:left; width:370px; padding:10px; } #right { float:left; width:370px; padding:10px; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="container"> <div id="left"> </div> <!-- Left end --> <div id="right"> </div> <!-- Right end --> </div> <!-- Container end --> </body> </html> but i want the background to be like the picture i have linket: (Dont understand what I mean?? The Gradient background) Thank U for Ur time and Ur help Hi guys, I'm trying to chop a template that has a drop shadow on top of a gradient background. I've attached a picture (not the template, but same principle) to explain the problem. I haven't done chops for a few years, and I'm wondering if this sort of thing is possible. The content area has a dynamic height, so just a big background image isn't a possibility. The 'bottom' of the drop shadow also raises problems: on some pages it will extend below the end of the gradient, on other pages it won't. I'm guessing this is impossible without transparency, which brings me to IE6. Has anyone found a way to do 24-bit transparency in IE6 these days, or is it still 8-bit only with pngfix.js? ...Any other possible solutions? Any suggestions most appreciated. Cheers, - The Plonk How to display gradient text effects without using image in html. I have a gradient image I'm trying to use as a background for a <div>, but I'm having a bit of a problem in that I can't get the image to stretch properly to fit the <div>. The thing is the </div> can change size, and the image needs to be able to change size with it. I've managed to get it working to the point where the image will TILE to fit the <div>, but that doesn't create the look I want. I need it to STRETCH, not tile. I have also managed to get the image to stretch to the browser window, but like I already said, it needs to stretch to fit the <div> while ignoring the size of the browser window. Just in case you have trouble visualizing exactly what I'm talking about, I have already uploaded two different versions of the partially finished website at the following URLs: http://www.finalfreak.greatnow.com/neo_index.html http://www.finalfreak.greatnow.com/neo_index2.html Notice how in the second link the gradient continues past the footer to the bottom of the window? That's what I'm trying to fix. What I want is for the image to conform to the size of the <div> like in the first link, but without tiling like the first link. Also, the page currently only works properly in Firefox. I'm planning on fixing it to work right with Internet Explorer as well, but I'd like to get the gradient problem resolved first. I've been trying to get this to work for days now and it's driving me crazy! Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am using a css gradient background in a header and footer <div> area that have a border radius set. The problem is that in IE9 the gradient background is squared off and extends past the border radius. Now in FF 4.0 this does not happen, it is only happening in IE9. Here is the coding for the area in css: Code: .footer { padding: 10px ; background:#000000; background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottome, from(#000000), to(#666666)); background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #000000, #666666); -ms-filter:"progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr=#000000, endColorstr=#666666)"; filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr=#000000, endColorstr=#666666); border:2px solid #cccccc; border-radius:10px 10px 10px 10px; -moz-border-radius-bottomleft:10px; -moz-border-radius-bottomright:10px; -moz-border-radius-topleft:10px; -moz-border-radius-topright:10px; position: relative; clear: both; } I know that Firefox renders html pages more efficiently than IE, but unfortunately not everyone is as smart to use FF. Is it possible to put a smaller background image on top (like in layers) of my old background image? I have a background image, but I want to put a smaller image on top of that one, but for it to be treated also as background image. This image is a black vertical rectangle, but is faded on the edges to give a transparency, so its a .png. So ultimately what I am trying to do is put this black rectanlge on top of my original background image and with the transparency on the edges of this image, be able to see my original background image. How can I do so? Also what I was thinking was that this faded background would be scaled to fit different screen sizes, so do "width: 75%"? Just so that it ALWAYS stays at 75% no matter what screen size it is viewed on. Is this the right approach towards getting this result? If anyone could take the time to answer this then much appreciated, it's pretty easy to read through, the php code is very basic and repeats itself in most places.. To create a CMS in PHP, is the best way to do it to save sections of the html to either say either a db or text file. This seems a bit messy but maybe the best way, for example say i have this html and i want to have a user be able to add more images to their page by just uploading an image and clicking a button ........, HTML Code: <table> <tr> <td> <img src = "i1.jpg" ></td> </tr> </table> Now i could save, HTML Code: <table> <tr> to say text1.txt and HTML Code: </tr> </table> to text2.txt, and the images to say text3.txt, HTML Code: <td> <img src = "i1.jpg" ></td> i could then say something like, PHP Code: <?php $fname = "text1.txt"; $fo = fopen($fname,r); $fr1 = fread($fo,filesize($fname)); fclose($fo); $fname = "text2.txt"; $fo = fopen($fname,r); $fr2 = fread($fo,filesize($fname)); fclose($fo); $fname = "text3.txt"; $fo = fopen($fname,r); $fr3 = fread($fo,filesize($fname)); fclose($fo); $f_final= $fr1.$fr3.$fr2; echo $f_final; ?> This would put the contents of all 3 text files into a single variable $f_final so that all i would need to do if i needed a new image added is add that images html to text3.txt. This seems like a pretty good way of doing things, i assume this is how CMS systems are made pretty much?? So basically i could have a user frontend "addimg.html" which is for adding the image, HTML Code: <form method="post" action ="newimage.php"> <input tpye = "text" name = "img1"> <input type = "submit"> </form> and then a modified version of the above php, PHP Code: <?php //save new image name to text3.txt *********** $newimgge_to_ADD = $_POST["img1"]; $fname = "text3.txt"; $fo = fopen($fname,a); fwrite($fo,"\r\n".'<td> <img src = "'.$newimgge_to_ADD.'.jpg"> </td>'); fclose($fo); //********************** //Open all the text files one by one and save their contents to a variable ***** $fname = "text1.txt"; $fo = fopen($fname,r); $fr1 = fread($fo,filesize($fname)); fclose($fo); $fname = "text2.txt"; $fo = fopen($fname,r); $fr2 = fread($fo,filesize($fname)); fclose($fo); $fname = "text3.txt"; $fo = fopen($fname,r); $fr3 = fread($fo,filesize($fname)); fclose($fo); //****************** //Combine the contents of all 3 varables to one varable f_final ********** $f_final= $fr1.$fr3.$fr2; //********************* //Print out the result ********************* echo $f_final; //************************** ?> This would need a good bit of tweaking but i just want to know if i am on the right tracks.. I'm trying to learn a little bit of html. I've got some basic knowledge now, but I can't figure out one thing. I want to make a button to go to another webpage. How do I add webpages to my website and access them through a button? I'm trying to create a link to a file that is located on my microsoft local server from a web page that is on a UNIX webserver. I'm using Dreamweaver CS5 and IE 8 I've set the link up as file:///M|/folder/folder/file.xlsx Link doesn't work. I've also tried M:\folder\folder\file.xlsx M:/folder/folder/file.xlsx file:///M:\folder\folder\file.xlsx file:///M/folder/folder/file.xlsx file://M/folder/folder/file.xlsx None of these work. What am I doing wrong? Hello All, I am looking to create a website very similar to this http://www.loserstatus.com/ that is my friends site and I currently have this www.canapictures.com . I like how simple his layout is but it looks sooo much better than mine lol. He hired someone to build it so he has no idea how it was made. Does anyone know if there is a template or something I can use to make something similar, I mainly just want the scrolling box with pictures that are linked to videos like he has on the top of the page below the banner. I'm trying to create a table. And instead of trying to explain it I'll just upload the code in a Notepad file. I wrote TABLE HERE where i want the table. It will be much appreciated if someone could help me. |
