Similar TutorialsHi...I'm not new to html but i've come across something i cant get to work. I have created a page with a background image to repeat-x and it look great. Next I want to place a three column table at the top and over this repeated background image. The problem is that the table get placed below the 'background_img.jpg'. So there is a large gap between the top of the page and the table. How do I get the table to be placed over or on top of the repeated background img? Thanks Hello guys, I have just created very simple website with an older Flash 7. Then I had embeded that .swf file on simple html document. (I did input code for black body background): <body bgcolor="000000"> It looks OK on Safari, but for some reason, background color turns white when viewed on FireFox. I dont have Internet Explorer, so I don't know how it looks there. Any idea what I do wrong? Here is the link to that website: http://www.icebergfilms.com Thank you for any advise. I've made an incredibly simple html page as an active desktop for a gpo policy, however there's been an uproar about colours so I thought I'd give it a stab to have a drop-down box to select from a range of colours for the body style tag. Any suggestions? <html> <head> <!--808080--> <title>ArchitenBG</title> <STYLE type="text/css"> body { background-color:#3A6EA5; } #div1 { position: absolute; size: 50%; bottom: 0px; right: 0px;} </STYLE> </head> <body> <div id="div1"><img src="Talbg.png" /></div> </body> </html> 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? Hi everyone: Any help appreciated. Objective: To have three equally sized and spaced images arranged horizontally, with their size set automatically by the size of the window. Development: I'm using a Mac, and I don't have ready access to a PC to experiment. What I tried: Code: <table> <tr> <td><img src = "a.png" style = "width: 100%" /></td> <td><img src = "b.png" style = "width: 100%" /></td> <td><img src = "c.png" style = "width: 100%" /></td> </tr> </table> <p class = "caption">A caption for the 3 images</p> <p class = "legend" >A legend for the three images</p> What happened: This works perfectly in Safari and Firefox (Mac) and Firefox under Vista, but in Internet Explorer under Vista , the images are HUGE - the unscaled size of the originals. What I think is the reason: IE is taking 100% to be relative to the width of the body element, not the td element. What I don't want to have to do: Use fixed sizes or calculate the sizes on the fly. What I'm trying now: removing the table and using a div, and inside that, setting the image width to 33% and floating one right and one left. What's the trick to get around this IE "gotcha" please? Thanks from a newbie. 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? Hey everyone. I'm not too experienced in HTML and I'm having a problem with displaying a background image on this site I'm building. I know this probably isn't the best way to be doing what I'm trying to do, but I'm using a Frameset with 3 columns. The left and right I just want to display the background image and the main to be another frameset containing the main website content. It looks perfectly fine in Firefox, but in Internet Explorer the background images in leftMargin and rightMargin don't show; it's just blank.

Hey, I'm wanting to use a larger background image with a height of around 810pixels. Currently when i implement it, only around half the image appears and there is no scroll bar to use to view the whole image. And currently when i put a css box into it, when i scroll down it will still only show the top section of the image. Can anyone assist in what code to put into the CSS to allow the scroll bar to appear so i can view the whole background image? Thanks (sorry, meant to put this in the CSS section, only just realised) Hello, 1) I need to know how to make my background image the size of every monitor that will view it in any browser? Any idea? OR at least the size of most monitors 2) Also, how do I make is stick so it doesn't scroll, everything scrolls above it or on it. If the answer is CSS could you please write out a bit of code for me and tell me where to put it. Pretty please, with sugar on top. I know it sounds lazy, but I use to now CSS can't remember anything now and I'm suffering from short term memory loss which is new for me. I have to relearn everything and remember it - hard to do when you can't remember what you did 5 minutes ago. ~eDee Hi Guys, Firstly i apologise if this in the wrong section of the forum, please let me know.
