HTML - Div Overlay/embed Work Around?

This may be a silly question to some of you but I have never done it so here goes. I want to have my navigation menu overlay my header information, banner. Now I can do this by making the banner background but then how do I give the header its size with no actual content? Can I have the header content which is a img file be overlayed by a menu, unordered list? Thanks

Hi! I have a flash website that is a little heavy (loads a little slow) so basically my idea is to create a flash intro that is light and might load fast on top of my current flash site..so that the flash intro plays while the site itself loads behind it. and then the flash intro would be done playing and disappear and will expose the main flash site behind it. I don't want to do a separate page for intro and main site though as it basically will give the same loading time. i want it to load together the main site behind at first then will be exposed after the flash intro is done. I was thinking of using z-index to put the flash intro on top white the site loads and put make the flash transparent after it's done playing.. but my i think if i do that the main site behind would not be functional(clickable) because of the overlaying object (which is only transparent) is there a way that i can make the object totally disappear after it's done playing? not just making it transparent... or is there any other way to do this? actionscript? java? anything? curtain? container? how is it possible... please help... Thanks guys.

how do i get it so its under that heading i put it up instead of it center?

under "backstage pass"
thats where i want the slideshow but it wont put it under there nor under the "welcome to the show" area

what am i doing wrong?

Alright, I'll admit up front that while I know very bare basics of HTML, I mostly just deal with Photoshop and the like, so I'm not much of a webmaster. That being said, here's my question:

I have a site split up into tables, and I would like to place a scrollable section in the middle (where I can put whatever amount of text I need), but also place a non-scrolling image behind it. Does that make sense? If not, then I could try to explain further.

Any help would be great.

Hi all,

i'm trying to build a page using overlay frames without using JS scripts. I already managed to get it working but it has a few problems.

Page: blackphoenixlegion.net Links: Corporation or Recruitment.

Technique:
I have additional frames below the page via overlow:hidden, using the CSS :target pseudo class to change the X position upon a target call.

Problems:
1. Should the available screen space be smaller in height than the page, then no scroll bar is shown. The page is just getting cut off.

2. The page is totally not IE compatible ofc. I figured i will have to use JS for those fixes, but thats ok ... someone who is using IE will not have problems with using JS ^^. I already added a JS script working like the :target peusodclass, but i still have two problems:
- The subframe (iframe) has no transparent background
- The overlay frame is getting shown, but the browser scrolls to the "hidden" area wich is just black.
