HTML - Centering Image That Is Wider Than Screen
Hi All,
I need to have a wide (1984px) image centred on the screen. If the screen is only 1024px wide it always aligns left. I am probably missing something basic here but can anyone offer advice? Thankyou. Similar TutorialsGuys, hopefully someone can give me a hand here. bear with me, Im a newbie to html yet Im an intermediate/advanced flash programmer. I learned flash but never learned html the right way and am struggling to make html entrance pages for my flash sites.. I know its usually the other way around. i learned flash first. ok, I have a website I made which is opened in a fixed window. the html index page says "enter here" and that button opens the fixed size window. that works fine. The problem is Im trying to learn the html and whenever i have an image on this index page, ( some graphics and the "enter here" button) it may look centered @ 1024 x768 but at a higher resolution ( 1280 x 1024) it will appear on the top left of the screen. I have been tinkering with dreamweaver but im really confused. I keep seeing all of these sites where everything looks aligned regarless of the screen setting. Im not sure if I should use tables , divs or whatever. i have my website logo as a jpg and some other graphics, and im not sure how to put it into the page so it always looks appropriate no matter what screen setting you are on. There is a company that makes nice websites and their entrance pages are always good. I am gonna attach the url of one of these. I notice that they always use divs, a LOT. Is thsi the right approach? and can someone look at the example and tell me how they are doing it? i dont put the url in the post becuase I do want google or other engines indexing the url to this post (for privacy) Thanks a lot url.zip Hi All, I have a problem with centering a page to the screen on a new site. The page is 945px wide, and is fine in IE. But in both Firefox and Safari the page is moved to the left of the screen. Does anyone have an idea of what I have done wrong here? Here is a link to the page:- Website Hi All, I started doing a website that had a picture, then flash overlaid on top of the picture, then some text centered on the flash... the size of the picture and flash is 990px in width and 792px high, the reason i put a picture on screen 1st is the flash take a few minutes to load, so it looks good till the flash kicks in. Anyway it looks good on my 1024 x 768 monitor, some of my friends have widescreen and say they is a huge gap to the right.. so how can i center width only an image of 900 x 792 and then in the exact postion of the centered image place the flash, and then add some text on top of the flash once again centered on top of the flash... this if it can be done will leave a even gap to the left and right if on widescreen and be virtually full screen on a normal 1024 x 768 monitor. I tried absolute Code: <center><div style="position: absolute; top: 0px; "> the image </div></center> <center><div style="position: absolute; top: 0px; "> the flash </div></center> <center><div style="position: absolute; top: 100px; "> the text </div></center the image and flash and text had the right html to show, just used the above code to show what i tried... anyway it did not work right for some reason, im sure im going down the wrong path and they is a much better way to do this... Can anyone help me Thanks Hi Guys, I dont know if i am over thinking this, or just been dumb! But I want to position a flash object file in a div to the the center of my screen. However heres the catch, my flash file is 1900 pixels wide, and of course a screen can be anything wide. I can get CSS background images for divs ok, but not objects like a flash movies. So assuming my screen is 1600 wide, the user would see the center of my 1900 wide flash file with 150 pixels missing on the left aand right. For some reason, maybe i am tired, but i can not get it working or get my head into gear today. thanks for any input! Oh and heres an image of my problem to help explain it http://i44.tinypic.com/33p9e0l.jpg Hi, How do you get an image at the top of the screen This is what I mean, Thanks. I've got the weirdest thing happening... An image on a site I'm working on doesn't appear on in Firefox on my computer when I view the site online. It's fine offline, and it's fine on other computers... including browsercam. It's also fine in IE on my system AND when I set up a guest system in VMWare I can see it in Firefox. So this probably isn't really an HTML question, just a "Have you ever seen this total weirdness?" question. I've rebooted repeatedly. The image is the photo of the sledders in the upper left corner at http://tourismwithkidsinnh.com. Dont know how to explain this but i have some flash centered in the middle of the screen and i would like to put a image that to the left and right of the centered flash im running at 1024x768, i did seem to manage this but when i tried a higher resolution the flash stopped center and the left and right image kept to the left and far right of the screen when what i wanted is the left and right image to stay flush left and right to the centered flash. Below is my code minus the left and right image, could someone help me add a image to the left and right of the centered flash, so even if the resolution is increased the left and right image will stay flush with the centered flash.

Hi all I only know very basic HTML and at the moment. I have an image that is hosted on Buzztouch. http://www.buzztouch.com/application...elfordboat.jpg Now my Question What code would I need to write so when you click on a page the image appears full screen no mater what brower you use it on. ? thanks I tried every code I could find, but warning, I'm still new to HTML. This is my table code for now. I need the first row image to be centered. When i view it in a browser it is aligned to the left <table style="width: 635px; height: 900px" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td style="width: 600px; height: 600px;" colspan="6"><img alt="" src="breakfast1.JPG" /></td> </tr> <tr style="height: 100px"> <td><img alt="" src="bthumb1.JPG" /></td> <td><img alt="" src="bthumb2.JPG" /></td> <td><img alt="" src="bthumb3.JPG" /></td> <td><img alt="" src="bthumb4.JPG" /></td> <td><img alt="" src="bthumb5.JPG" /></td> <td><img alt="" src="bthumb6.JPG" /></td> </tr> <tr style="height: 100px"> <td><img alt="" src="bthumb7.JPG" /></td> <td><img alt="" src="bthumb8.JPG" /></td> <td><img alt="" src="bthumb9.JPG" /></td> <td><img alt="" src="bthumb10.JPG" /></td> <td><img alt="" src="bthumb11.JPG" /></td> <td><img alt="" src="bthumb12.JPG" /></td> </tr> <tr style="height: 100px"> <td><img alt="" src="bthumb13.JPG" /></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> Hi all i have been trying to center a group of four images using html. the code is: PHP Code: <img src="tennis.jpeg"align="center"width="100" height="100" title="Equipment needed for playing tennis." > <img src="snooker.jpeg"align="center" width="100" height="100" title="Snooker table within a snooker club where you play the sport "> <img src="Golf.jpeg" "align="center"width="100" height="100 title="The Famous last hole on the old corse St Andrews"> <img src="Badminton.jpeg"align="center" width="100" height="100" title="Equipment needed for playing Badminton"> some how its not quite right any ideas where im going wrong? TI AV. Gaz. I have the following HTML: <table id="TextArea1"> <tr> <td valign=top><img src="Images/AllProducts.jpg" alt="All Products" align=center></td> </tr> The image is placed at the top left corner of the table using the: valign=top Then, I want to center the image horizontally within the table using: align=center But, this markup is ignored. I have tried all the values for "align" and: align=right is the only one that works. What do I need to do to get this to work? Thanks. I would like to center three button images under an image. In the old day we would put our text into the image and create a two-row table, with the top row having one cell three columns wide and the bottom row having three cells. I have tried making my image with three uls with background images under them, but of course I can't force the full image to show since my content doesn't take up the full space. I am currently putting things in a table, just to make the full image show, but I feel like I'm still doing things old-school. Is there a newer, spiffier way to do this? table { width:780px; font-size:125%; padding:0; overflow:hidden; } td { width:254px; height:60px; background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:top left; background-image:url(images/navbackground2.png); padding:0 0 0 20px; } Also my images won't justify. The space between the cells seems predetermined no matter what I futz with and there's a space to the right of the last image that I don't want. Finally, is there a way to put all three background statements into one code? (I know that's a CSS question, but I don't want to cross-post.) Elisabeth Hi, I'm currently designing this website: www.carmelalopez.com and I'm trying to get the images on the left to fit the size of the browser screen on the right when you click on them. The images themselves are huge, so I'd like some kind of code that resizes the images to fit the size of the visitor's screen, which will vary from user to user. This might not be an HTML question (maybe CSS), but any guidance in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Hi! I'm new to this site and new to HTML so please don't bash me. I really need help with a problem I have. I have four images as my buttons and links to various pages on my site. They're rectangles that spread out horizontally on my screen. However, not all computer screens are the same size, so at school for example, since the screen is smaller, the order of my links gets messed up. Is there any way to size an image so that it is 25% of a moniter? If so, could someone just like, right the code down so I may copy? I"m really bad at html. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! I created a table and on one side is an image and the other side words. I would like to center the image vertically and horizontally within the <td> tag. Right now the image is on the top of the area it's in This code I'm using now is.... <img src="http://www.elevatingyourbusiness.com/images/6 Step Process201x178.jpg" width="201" height="178" alt="6 Step Process Photo" /> For a better picture of how "lopsided" the picture/words look you can go to www.ElevatingYourBusiness.com It's the graphic under the title starting "World-Class Management " I'm open to any other suggestions you might have that will make this particular area look eye pleasing. Thanks in advance. I seem to be having trouble. I centered the main image fine but when it comes to centering the background image (http://www.leeryan.fan-sites.org/trylayout/back.png), i can't seem to work out what to do. http://www.leeryan.fan-sites.org/trylayout/header.php If anyone can help me out i would appreciate it...I hope i have posted this in the correct place...This is all the coding i have that seem to be to do with the back.png don't know if that helps, i'm not very good with this sort of thing. Code: <body topmargin=0 leftmargin=0 background="back.png"> http://www.cubedspacedesigns.com/imagegallery/ This page has a row of scrolling thumbnails along the bottom. Each thumbnail, when clicked on, changes the main image. My problem is that I can't get the main image to centre. The image itself is in a div called #image, and that is inside a container box called #imagebox. For some reason my #image div automatically takes on the width of its parent, #imagebox. What I want it to do is to take on the width of the new image and get centred inside its parent. What is the best method to center a single (hover over) image link in the absolute center of a browser page? I know there must be something very easy that's going over my head. Is it easiest via CSS, or html? or neither, or both??? here's my code so far Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

I'm trying to create a button image in HTML. and I would like the the button to be 100 pixels left of the center of the page and 150 pixels from the top. I need it to work with different resolutions. This is what I tried which doesn't work. <img src="Banner/edv_banner.png" style="position:absoulte; top:130px; center:10;"> Hello folks, I'm trying out some different background images sized 800 x 600, but I'm having trouble getting them to center on the page! The graphic is hugging the right hand side of the screen at a low resolution, and is off center, slightly to the right at a higher res. Here is a url to show you what is happening: http://www.magicalwonders.com/test/ The code is very basic: Code: <body bgcolor="#000000"> <div align="center"><img src="images/background.jpg" alt="background" width="800" height="600"> </div> Not sure what I'm missing out? Any advice would be appreciated. Many thanks, Myles |
