HTML - Horizontal Scrolling Question(s)
I'm trying to get horizontal scrolling of images that scroll behind a block of fixed text.
I attached a mock up. And here is one of the staging pages if you want to see the html/css. I'm trying to accomplish a "layered" effect of image gallery and text. As you can see in the mockup, the block of text has a transparent background to help this effect. I tried to do a hiden overflow for the horizontal navigation container and have the block of text be a container with a fixed position. But its a mess. Any advice on achieving this? **Edit: This site has the same kind of architecture I'm looking for - http://csaustodesign.com/work_ns.html I can't seem to figure out how this person did it though, their source code is a mess... Similar TutorialsHi, How can I create a row of images with a horizontal scrollbar? I'd be really grateful to your help! Regards Rain Lover Hi everyone, http://www.eveningtweed.com/laura At the above site, I've got a div called 'work' which needs to contain a long line of images which I want users to horizontally scroll through using the DIV scrollbar. I've looked through countless forum posts and solutions on Google but nothing works. Can anyone tell me why this won't scroll horizontally and how to achieve it? Current CSS for the DIV: Code: .work { border:0px; height:350px; overflow-x:scroll; overflow-y:hidden; width:100%; } Thanks in advance, Jez. I dont know how to explain it better but how do i do this http://www.target.com/Movies-MMB/b/r...ode=1259488011 so at the bottom of my page i can add 4 to 5 different products and allow for those left and right buttons show more... any direction would help thanks Hello, I have a demonstration site set up at: http://www.sikhfaith.com/demo The site works perfectly in Firefox 2.0. However, in Internet Explorer 7.0, there's a huge blank space on the right side of the page which causes IE to display a horizontal scrollbar. I haven't been able to pinpoint what is causing this. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. I figured this out. Three hours of searching before posting, then 30 minutes later it is resolved. http://knexinnovation.net/store/ I thought that if your background is wider than the window, it won't create a scrollbar to show the full image. Or is this not the case? Currently it has a horizontal scroll bar for 1024px users. The footer image is actually the body { } background, aligned to the bottom center. Evening one and all, I'm having a little problem. I've created a webpage that's 1280 pixels wide using HTML tables to structure my layout. I've tried viewing my page on a lower screen resolution - for example 800x600 but the page doesn't hold it's structure and allow me to view the page properly by placing a horizontal scroll bar at the bottom of the screen. Instead the browser squashes all the data to fit within the 800 pixel width of the screen. Is there some code I can insert in the page that commands the browser to display a scroll bar instead of squashing all the data to fit the 800 pixel width? I'm testing at the moment in Firefox 3.6.15 on Mac OSX 10.6.3. Thanks. I've seen on some sites that images show up within a block and they scroll left and right when user clicks a button. And many times, these are not flash files, but html, or xhtml or dhtml or asp or php or some other extensions. I am trying to create a database of images all with labels (multiple), so that I can pull all images of a label to a window and have them scroll right and left with buttons. does anyone here know how this may be done? Thanks Navs Hello. First time here asking for help. Hope there's a solution! The site in question is http://www.jason-bradbury.com/Design.html. It's my first attempt at web design and I'm stumped. The goal is to present my art portfolio in a horizontal scrolling layout with a fixed header and footer. Ideally it would look identical across the many browser platforms. On a Windows laptop, my page looks and functions as it should in the latest browser versions of Safari, Google Chrome and Firefox as long as there aren't a stack of toolbars enabled. If toolbars are present (mostly in Firefox), the footer gets truncated and the page will not vertical scroll to allow it to be seen. So my first problem is getting the vertical scrolling (for the entire page including header and footer) to appear only when necessary in that situation. On my Mac Pro (I have not been able to test a Macbook yet) the page appears normal across the board with Safari and Firefox (have not tested Chrome or IE) The second problem is that in all versions of IE (and older versions of Firefox prior to 4.0) the page is displayed incorrectly. In IE, the header is missing, the left margin is way off and a vertical scrollbar is present for the body (again, if the vertical scrolling was for the entire page it wouldn't be so bad). As for the horizontal scrolling, it is very sluggish in IE. Firefox only has the vertical scrollbar in the body problem and since the header is shown in that browser, the body overlaps it when scrolled up. The page was originally designed in iWeb and then I had to tweak the code in Dreamweaver to get the fixed header and footer. Hope someone can help me out here! Cheers, Jason. Is there a code to hide the scroll bar on the right altogether? I know there are some to change the colors, positioning, etc. Is there any way that I can set up a page with frames where the frames remain a fixed width and will stay that size even if the browser cannot show them in their entirety? This is a simplified version of what I'm trying to do (with two random sites in the frames for an example) <html> <frameset cols="800, 800"> <frame src="google.com"> <frame src="yahoo.com"> </frameset> </html> How that is working right now is that if you reduce the size of the browser then the frames also reduce in size so that they both remain on the page... I don't want this. I want the frames to remain the fixed width (800) and if the browser is not large enough to display them (<1600), I want it to have a scroll bar along the bottom to scroll further right to view them. I don't really ever use frames though, so I'm not quite sure if there's a command to throw in either frameset or frame tags or if there's something else I need to do. Thanks! my page (http://www.zerofivezero.net/the_project102.html) is scrolling as if there's content down the page, but there isn't...I can't figure it out. I'm using the code below to hide the content and have it swapped when selecting an item from the nav. Code: .hidden { position:absolute; z-index:2; visibility:hidden; Code: <div id="section3_region" class="hidden"><div class="news"><fieldset> <legend><img src="images/forum_leg.jpg" width="120" height="28" border="0" alt=""/></legend> <br /><br /> <div class="img"><img src="images/news_thumb1.jpg" width="80" height="75" border="1" alt=""/></div> This is the news section<br /> Yep, this is where the news will be. This will be the short blurb about the story. <div class="img"><img src="images/news_thumb2.jpg" width="80" height="75" border="1" alt=""/></div> This is the news section<br /> Yep, this is where the news will be. This will be the short blurb about the story. <div class="img"><img src="images/news_thumb3.jpg" width="80" height="75" border="1" alt=""/></div> This is the news section<br /> Yep, this is where the news will be. This will be the short blurb about the story. </fieldset></div> So, I would like to make a one-line textfield that will automatically scroll when too much text is added. So, for example, if I have a field that has room for 20 characters, and someone enters 10 characters, it looks as expected. However, if someone enters 30 characters, only characters 10-30 would be visible. Is this possible? Im really not sure if the title of this thread is right. Anyway, i dont know too much about HTML coding, but id like help with something on my .... MySpace haha Alright, so this is my myspace at the moment. www.myspace.com/cj_x3 As you can see, i have links on the sides, done by the following code example; Quote: <div style="width: 78px; height: 22px; position: absolute; bottom:5px;right:15px; background-color: transparent; border-width:0px;border-style:solid;border-color: transparent; font-family: verdana;"> <a href="LINK" style="color: dd4444; font-size: 9px; position: absolute; right: 0px; top: 0px">EXAMPLE LINK TEXT</a> </div> When you scroll down, the links on the sides scroll off the top. I dont like this... What i want to happen, is for them to be fixed, like the background, so when you scroll down, the links around the sides dont move. Thanks for the help in advance Hey all. I have been working on this website that my friend had been designing, and was just wondering if this was possible. The way it is now, the topmost div's are supposed to stay in their position at all times, and the only part that would scroll would be the main body. The two body divs (left and right) have been placed inside the div that should be scrolling. I know there is the css overflow, but the problem is, there is no fixed height on the div, so this method isn't quite right. If anyone knows of a way where we could just start the scrolling at a certain point down the page, that would be great. Here is a link to the page so far - don't worry, it won't look close to that when finished... Image/text placeholders are horrid, I know. http://http://pixelconcepts.zxq.net/ -Thanks in advance. Hi everyone, I'm having some trouble with the scrolling functionality on my page. Basically I want only one vertical scrollbar down the left hand side of the page but I have a frameset document with three columns and two rows down the middle column (with the bottom frame of these two rows being the 'content' frame). I've tried setting this document within another frameset to get the whole thing scrolling with no luck. Can anyone provide an insight on how this is usually achieved as it seems fairly commonplace but I am having a hard time making it happen. Cheers Matt Ok I have developed the following website www.megacom-int.com. On firefox the scrolling of the latest projects on the left are displayed correctly. However when I use Internet Explorer the Latest Projects has blue background. Whats more interesting is that if you click on Methodology using Internet Explorer, its like viewing it on firefox! I dont understand why this is happenning, I have looked at the code and I see no difference! p.s.Methodology file is in the same folder as it is on Our Team and Partners. I hate everything microsoft, but I have no choice in the matter as it has to work on Internet Explorer as well. Any help in the matter would be great Best Regards K4L Please can someone help me. My site is www.sweet.ie. Basically I am trying to get rid of the scrollbars altogether. The site is navigated using the scrollto function via JQuery. However heres the issue. When I set the body to overflow:hidden it doesn't work in IE 7 and also Firefox on the PC. Is there a way of disabling the scrollbars using Javascript? Or does anyone know how to do it via CSS so that it will work on all browsers. Going out of my mind!!!! Thanks so much,, Aileen ima noob. To this forum and html as well so please be gentle. i brought lube...lol I'm trying to change the color of the 'bar' between two frames. The frame on the left I have set to 'no scroll' and i want to change the color of it. I know how to change the color of scroll bars, arrows... but how do i change just the bar? I've been using JS to change the colors of the scroll bar. Is there another way? like css. |
