HTML - Adding Css Background Image Problem?
My Headfirst book on page 404 says to add the background-image property to a paragraph so I add the code for that and a few other changes highlighted in bold in last paragraph but it doesn't show the image on the browser and the css validator does not show it as an error, also what I don't understand is why there are THREE classes with the same name [.guarantee] in this stylesheet? The url is:

Why is this happening? I have 3 images, one is a background image that repeats, one is aligned left and another is aligned right. <td background="screen_header_02.gif" height="103"><img src="screen_header_04.gif" align="left"><img src="screen_header_03.gif" align="right"></td> it is fine, but the background image is not viewable when printing. so i need to come up with another way of using 3 images in the way i have, without using the background image. any ideas? Eyup people I was just wondering how I would go about centering or stretching a background image on a webpage without it doubleing itself. i hope that makes sense lol... sorta like when you set a wallpaper on your computer screen and set it to "tiled", there maybe more than 1 image showing. Id just like it to be stretched. any help would be appreciated thanks Hey guys, please forgive me if this has already been posted but im at a total loss I'm having major issues with getting a background to fit properly around my html page. I wonder if you can help me. the code i have is this style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); background-image: url(http://i488.photobucket.com/albums/rr248/kingofkingspoker/borderbg.png);" id="homediv" onload="start();" alink="#000000" link="#000000" vlink="#000000"> I really have no idea how to fit it to the whole screen so it doesn't look like the border around the BG image is cutting half the page up and repeating. If this cannot be corrected is there a code i can add to it to implement a border around the actual web page in full, as if to say i could remove the background image, have it has standard white but use a code to implement a border that would look fine on all computers. Plz Help Hi all, I want to have 2 images as backgrounds but have one on top of the other. Is this possible? If so how would I do it / what is the code? Cheers Raggy I have a jQuery plugin on my website called Facebox and it for some apparent reason when the div opens up in a small pop up window like Facebook it shows my background image of my content div. I have been working all day trying to fix this issue. When I take out the background-image from "content" div i dont have this problem but I need my content background-image to stay where it currently is.

I'm designing a web page that has a navigation banner (home - programs - schedule of events - contact us - downloads) that is made up of a .png for each page (i.e. home.png, programs.png, etc). My page is 1000px wide and all of the navigation banner's images add up to 1000px wide. I'm using JavaScript to create an onMouseOver and onMouseOut effect on each of the images. The problem that I'm having occurs when I tried to add a link (either by <A HREF= or using an image map). Whenever I add a link to the image, a small (3px) area of white space shows up to the right of the image. This shifts all of my other images 3px to the right (and 3 more for each link I add to subsequent images) thus making the total width of the navigation banner over 1000px and the last image gets shoved to a new line. I can find no way to get rid of this white space other than to remove the link from the image. There is no property on the page that adds any sort of padding, margins, or borders to images or links, so I can see no property that has to be changed. Help! How do I get rid of this white space but still keep the link on the image?? [I posted this question on the Adobe forum to no avail, below is a screencap I took of the issue I'm having] Thanks in advance! //kl PS - I am using both IE8 and Chrome to view this webpage. I've set all the margins/padding/borders to 0px. Here is my CSS and the part of the code that pertains to the navigation banner. CSS: Code: <style type="text/css"> <!-- body { font: 100% Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; background: #666666; margin: 0; /* it's good practice to zero the margin and padding of the body element to account for differing browser defaults */ padding: 0; text-align: center; /* this centers the container in IE 5* browsers. The text is then set to the left aligned default in the #container selector */ color: #000000; background-image: url(images/blue.bg.png); background-repeat: repeat; background-color: #009; } .oneColFixCtr #container { width: 1000px; /* using 20px less than a full 800px width allows for browser chrome and avoids a horizontal scroll bar */ background: #FFFFFF; margin: 0 auto; /* the auto margins (in conjunction with a width) center the page */ border: 0px solid #000000; text-align: left; /* this overrides the text-align: center on the body element. */ } .oneColFixCtr #mainContent { padding: 0 20px; /* remember that padding is the space inside the div box and margin is the space outside the div box */ } body, td, th { color: #333; } #main_banner2 { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; height: auto; width: 1000px; } --> </style> </head> Nav Banner: NOTE:: below HAS to be all one paragraph because if i insert a carriage return in between images, it also adds the white space...

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? Hey, I embedded a youtube video on my site and then I tweak the youtube embed video code and added in hidden=true and &autoplay=1&loop=1. I hid the video and made it autoplay and loop, and got background sound. Works great and works both on IE and Firefox. But I'm just wondering, is it against youtube's rules to hide their videos on your site. I feared that so I took the video off. I'm editing a tumblr, with complete custom HTML, and I was wondering how I'd either add one fixed white rectangle going down the page vertically (the posts are centered on the page, but the page background is too distracting from the posts themselves). Or, how I would just add white borders around each individual post? This should explain the look I want (with different colors/ background/ etc) Hello all, I am helping a company develop a website right now. But, I am very new to it and would like some help. I went to w3schools but I am not getting enough info. I needed help on the problems that I stated in the title. Here is my code.

Since I have hosting and domain with godaddy, and I use companies computers I can't install a FTP client because of some restrictions. If you are confused with what I say, please ask me to clarify.

(I've stripped out all the extra content and codes to just leave the offending images.) I primarily use Firefox, but the same is happening in IE and Opera. Can anybody tell me what's happening? (I apologise if this is a well known, frequently asked question, but I couldn't find an answer and this is driving me up the wall, so any help is appreciated.) Hi, I'm a complete newb and html-challenged, so please forgive my stupid questions. This is what I want for the personal website I'm making: a fixed image as the background that covers the entire screen regardless of what screen resolution a user's computer has - this much I've managed with CSS...I think (like this right? http://www.geocities.com/serenamonster/index.htm ) clickable regions on this background image to use for navigation to various parts of the site. Or in other words, the background image as an image map. - this I'm having trouble with, because you have to designate the picture as a set # of pixels in dimension to make an image map right? and if I do that to my background image, then it may display too big or too small depending on the person's screen resolution right? So does anyone know how I can have clickable regions on my fixed background image without the image being too big for low resolutions or too small for high resolutions? (he http://www.geocities.com/serenamonster/map.html the background image is fixed at 800x400. I want to make each star on the image a hyperlink to a different part of the site). I read somewhere that standard is 800x600 to fill a person's browser right? But on my computer the image only covers about 2/3 of the browser screen which is too small. How can I make it so that it fills 100% of any viewer's screen regardless of resolution? How does it look on your computer? I know these are probably just really stupid questions because I'm missing something really fundamental...but any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! ~Serena P.S. is it possible to do mouseovers for certain coordinates on an image map? |
