HTML - Fixed Background Image In <div>
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!

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? 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" 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> 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, 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? Can somebody give me a full code <div style=""> for putting background images in divs... thanks in advance for you're help! 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.

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 i'm trying to set an image from my harddrive as the background but it doesn't seem to be working. I've been trying <body background="image location.jpg"> but it doesn't work. Any thoughts or solutions? thanks Hello All, I hope this is a good place to ask my question. I was working on a a webpage and tinkering with two different screen capturing software to capture my website then all of a sudden I realized I can no longer see the background of my webpage. I can go online and see background images of someone else webpage but no the webpages stored on my computer. If anyone has any idea about the cause of the problem please help. Hi Guys, Firstly i apologise if this in the wrong section of the forum, please let me know. My problem: I have designed a webpage for my DJ services in Photoshop and plan to slice it up. The first problem is my background. I designed it myself so its not simple. Basically i dont have a clue on how i should export the background from CS5 or how to implement it into my website on dreamweaver cs5. Also i want to export my images once sliced from Photoshop with a transparent background, how would i do this? Thanks for any help Raver910 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) How would I do this? This is the current script I am using for background change upon a timer, does anyone know how and where I can add a no bg repeat and position the image on the bottom left? Any help would be great! Thanks <script type="text/javascript"> var bgImages = new Array(); bgImages.push("/image/girl.gif"); bgImages.push("/image/girl2.gif"); bgImages.push("/image/girl3.gif"); //bgImages.push("URL HERE"); function LoadRandomBackground() { var randomImageIndex = Math.floor(Math.random()*bgImages.length) document.body.background = bgImages[randomImageIndex]; } function StartBackgroundRefreshTimer() { var timer = setInterval('LoadRandomBackground()',10000); // 10 seconds } </script> </head> <body onload="LoadRandomBackground(); StartBackgroundRefreshTimer()"> Hello, Well im trying to make a web page type thing and i was wondering if there is a way to make the background change as if it were an image when you shrink the page down. http://www.legouniverseforums.com/radio.html thats the link. i want the video chat to be on the orange part box and the chat to be in its box but on some computers they go in there boxes but on other computers they dont. Here is how it looks on mine i would like it to look like this on every computer. http://www.legouniverseforums.com/Sc...34.34%20PM.png Hi, I'm new here but have been teaching myself html and css for a few months. I'm trying to figure out the best way to use a image for the background in a form, for example a login form. I have been using a image I made with gimp that has nice rounded corners and the shiny 3D look with drop shadows and all that. Up to this point I just use a table inside a div to place my input tags and submit button over the image but I can't really do anything fancy with the input text boxes so I was wondering is there a way to put my inputs over an image that has boxes for the input. That way I can use gimp to determine the look of the input text areas. I tried using map and figuring out a way to put a input in there but it doesn't work because you can't put form elements inside a hot zone on an image. I could use tables like I have been but the input area shows up white and won't match if I have another color in my image. Also the table always renders different in different browsers moving my form up and down or making the text areas closer or farther apart. So is there a better way to place my input text areas over an image ? Thanks and I hope I gave enough info without confusing the issue. |
