HTML - Fixed Background With Scrolling Foreground
can someone outline the steps to making a page with a fixed background and a scrolling foreground such as can be found here?
http://www.paul-wallas.co.uk/ i've looked at the code and what information i've found on the web but i don't see how it is done. tia, Similar TutorialsHi all, I am trying to create a webpage, which would have a world map as the background (I am imagining an SVG file could do it) and in the foregroung there would be multiple textboxes, that would be fillable by the user. The values from the textboxes would be stored on the server, but that is the second step (for which I dont bother right now), most likely done through some PHP. The webpage should be a re-creation of a gameboard - namely Twilight Struggle. For an example (taken out of an Excel file calculator for this game) please see this: Could someone point me in a direction, which I could take in the general design part? E.g. SVG+textarea or something completely different? 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) I want the side columns on my website, http://www.thethuglife.com to be fixed, like a frame, while scrolling. They contain my ads and I want my ads visible to the visitor at all times. How can I make these side columns fixed like a frame, but still centered vertically and horizontally on any viewing size? Any help would be appreciated. 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! Okay, so. Im completely new here! But I really need help fixing a tumblr theme code. The content/images is scrolling over/infront of the fixed header image, so what would be the code to fix that up? There is no CSS for the header as the original style didnt really include one. The HTML for the header is: <body> <head> <div style="width: 488px; height: 288px; margin: 0 auto; background: url(http://i56.tinypic.com/mwto2t.png) no-repeat top center fixed;"></div> <div id="yes"> <div id="center"> <div id="info"> <a href="/"></a><br><br> Thank you for any help 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. hi guys im after a simple code so that the background on my forum is fixed and only the foreground moves up and down, someone must know iv looked all over the place and cant find how anywhere,someone help please Cheers Jacob Hello. I need some assistance in figure out how to make a fixed/linkable/image. I used this code here
HTML Code: <body style="background-attachment: fixed; background-repeat: no-repeat;" background="XXX.jpg"> which worked great in keeping its place. Then I added HTML Code: <a href="http://www.davesite.com/"> before and after but no luck. Im trying to get that link to work for the background too, but its not working out at all. "Sadly no HTML skills whatsoever" This one has been giving me a headache for days now. I wish to place an image in the background so my text can scroll while the image remains still: <div id ="scroll" style="padding:0px; font-size:0px; overflow:hidden; background-image:url(files/images/b2l.jpg); float:left; height: 480px; width: 360px; color: #FFFFFF; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans- serif;"> http://www.muskmagazine.com/wintertrendstest.html This works fine on Safari and Firefox but when viewed on IE6 the image moves along with the text. I have been playing with position:fixed; with no luck. Soon as I get it working on IE6 the image is miss- aligned in Safari/ Firefox. Please someone have mercy! Justin I have a site with text scrolling over a fixed background - mbccc.net - and I want the background to be an imagemap so's I can link from different parts of it. But I can't make it work. I can make an imagemap work alright. But not on a fixed background image. Is it possible or does making the image a 'background' image and 'fixing' it in position mean that it can't be referenced as an imagemap any more? regards, ab I used this code here but it doesnt seem to work for GoogleChrome browser well, as it did for the others. Is there a code that will work for all the browsers? HTML Code: <html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
function randomBackground()
{
var myImages = Array();
myImages[0] = 'xxx.jpg';
myImages[1] = 'xxx.jpg';
myRandomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random()*myImages.length);
document.body.style.backgroundImage = 'URL('+myImages[myRandomNumber]+')';
}
</script>
<style type="text/css">
body
{
background-attachment: fixed;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
</style>
</head>
<body onload="randomBackground();"></body>
Hi, my problem is that I don't know how to let my background scroll with the page, not having it repeating. however the content has to stay at it's place. 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. Hi all, I want to change the look of my blog, and am interested in the overlapping style shown in this example: http://etsytreasuryteam.blogspot.com...ingcolors.html I need to know how to have a main background and then the overlapping image shown in the example (the leaves and colored dots/berries(?)) Hope this makes sense! I know basic HTML, but am stumped with this one. I am still working on creating the images I am going to use. Any help with this would be MUCH appreciated. Thanks! Hi All This is my first post so i hope I provide all the info you need, to be able to help. I am working inside Macromedia UltraDev as this is waht I was taught with over a decade ago. Problem started when I set a fixed background image to the page . . . dropdown menu still displays, but everything else (text & pics) in table seem to be hiddden behind the background image. here is the code HTML Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml2/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

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? |
