HTML - Need Help With Fixed Background Image As Image Map
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? Similar TutorialsThis 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 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">

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 all -- I'm having an interesting problem. I'm designing a web page that has a navigation banner (home - programs - schedule of events - contact us - downloads) that is made up of a .png for each page (i.e. home.png, programs.png, etc). My page is 1000px wide and all of the navigation banner's images add up to 1000px wide. I'm using JavaScript to create an onMouseOver and onMouseOut effect on each of the images. The problem that I'm having occurs when I tried to add a link (either by <A HREF= or using an image map). Whenever I add a link to the image, a small (3px) area of white space shows up to the right of the image. This shifts all of my other images 3px to the right (and 3 more for each link I add to subsequent images) thus making the total width of the navigation banner over 1000px and the last image gets shoved to a new line. I can find no way to get rid of this white space other than to remove the link from the image. There is no property on the page that adds any sort of padding, margins, or borders to images or links, so I can see no property that has to be changed. Help! How do I get rid of this white space but still keep the link on the image?? [I posted this question on the Adobe forum to no avail, below is a screencap I took of the issue I'm having] Thanks in advance! //kl PS - I am using both IE8 and Chrome to view this webpage. I've set all the margins/padding/borders to 0px. Here is my CSS and the part of the code that pertains to the navigation banner. CSS: Code: <style type="text/css">
<!--

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 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()"> 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) Can somebody give me a full code <div style=""> for putting background images in divs... thanks in advance for you're help! 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. How would I do this? 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. Here is my index.html file: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>| Totaro's Restaurant |</title> </head> <frameset cols="15%, 70%, 15%" border=0> <frame name="left" src="leftMargin.html" /> <frame name="main" src="main.html" /> <frame name="right" src="rightMargin.html" /> </frameset> <noframes> I'm sorry, it seems your browser doesn't support frames! x( </noframes> </html> and here is the code of one of the margins: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Here it is in Firefox: http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d1...itefirefox.jpg And in IE: http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d1.../websiteie.jpg Any help would be appreciated. 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, 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 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 I seem to be having trouble. I centered the main image fine but when it comes to centering the background image (http://www.leeryan.fan-sites.org/trylayout/back.png), i can't seem to work out what to do. http://www.leeryan.fan-sites.org/trylayout/header.php If anyone can help me out i would appreciate it...I hope i have posted this in the correct place...This is all the coding i have that seem to be to do with the back.png don't know if that helps, i'm not very good with this sort of thing. Code: <body topmargin=0 leftmargin=0 background="back.png"> Does anybody know how to like, move the background image down? Here's what I have for it: body { background-color: #FFFFFF; background-image: url(http://i43.tinypic.com/2d6mzvd.jpg); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: center; text-align: center; } As the title says: Is it possible to repeat an image horizontally that is not a background image? Thank you! I have a template that I'm trying to customize. It has a left sidebanner div and image. How do I get text to appear on top of the image? By making the image a background-image in CSS? By specifying z-index? Your help is GREATLY appreciated Does anyone know if there is a way, in a layout defined entirely with ems, to have the background also measured in ems? http://www.eversnug.com/test4.php At this page there are four examples of what I mean. If the background were able to be measured in ems I think that I could have one that would work across all browsers. Hello - I'm currently in the early stages of putting together a new website, and I'm trying to have a top-bottom color gradient (in the "header" area of the page) with a background image (i.e. picture) as well. I can do each individually no problem (gradient with a 1px repeat-x image in css; and the image quite obvious), but I want to keep the gradient consistent across the entire top of the screen, regardless of the viewer's screen resolution, and the picture centered. Anyway to de-couple the two? You can see the current one-big-image solution here (and I want to see the gradient continuing on forever): http://tomatomountain.com/738/ I could just make the background image really wide, but it seems a waste of space and file size. |
