I am trying to create a "map" with divs over cities. I got the map in .svg format and using it as background with background-size: cover. I need the "city-divs" to stay positioned relative to the image (for example London div should be always over London position on my image). I can half-achieve this making the "city divs" absolute and then positioning it using vh and vw. However, if I resize the window or check on different computer, it messes up.
I guess pure css is not the correct way on doing this. Is there a way of achieving this or am I going completely wrong direction?
Closest I got was using this solution found on stackoverflow http://jsfiddle.net/fmenrd4z/ . This works for divs in the center of image just about right. Divs more to the left / right won't work as good.
Currently, I'm using this code.
HTML
<section id="map">
<div id="london">london</div>
<div id="paris">paris</div>
</section>
CSS
#map {
background-image: url(../img/maps/map.svg);
width: 100vw;
height: 90vh;
background-attachment: fixed;
background-position: center;
background-size: cover;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
#london {
position: absolute;
left: 31vw;
top: 35vh;
}
#paris {
position: absolute;
left: 60vw;
top: 73vh;
}
I suppose there must be solution for this problem. I've been searching the web for whole day today but didn't found anything.
I'm up for choosing completely different way of doing this. (Is there some javascript library etc..?)
Thanks in advance!
This will never work because you position the divs dimensions that are always changing depending on the screen it is displayed.
There is one of way of doing it by giving a fixed height and width of section #map in pixels for large screens and adding some media queries for mobile screens.
#map {
width: 600px;
height: 300px;
}
#media (max-width: 1024px){
#map {
width: 300px;
height: 150px;
}
}

I have both <body> and <html> set to fill the full height and width of the view-- and they do. The problem is, now that I have a Google maps element essentially serving as a page background, other elements are overflowing the view size and being pushed offscreen.
This is how it looks currently. I've tried adjusting the size of the <html> and <body> elements, but that's not really a fix so much as a hack, as it throws off the layout in other ways. I've also tried playing around with overflow options.
This is how it looks when you inspect it, showing the overflow, and the fact that the body is the correct size. (You have to zoom out to see the overflow.) Notice that both the right side and the bottom, above the fixed navbar, show a gap between the edge of the map element and the limits of the screen.
I'm assuming the problem is something with my map element's CSS, but I cannot for the life of me figure out what it is. Here's the map-specific CSS:
#map {
position: absolute;
top: 50px;
left: 80px;
height: calc(100vh - 50px);
width: calc(100vw - 80px);
z-index: 0;
overflow: hidden;
}
#media (max-width: 768px) {
#map {
top: 0;
left: 0;
height: calc(100vh - 55px);
width: 100vw;
}
}
And here's a link to a codepen containing the page with the issue:
https://codepen.io/redheadedmandy/pen/BVRxZE
Any suggestions for a workable fix would be really helpful!
The problem is with with the div with the classes bottom content-container, just after the #map div.
The problem is that in one hand, it has width: 100% (by .bottom rule) and in the other hand, it has
#media (max-width: 768px) {
.content-container.bottom {
margin-left: 20px;
margin-right: 20px;
}
}
which "push" the whole document so the total width will be 100% + 20px.
The solution is to reduce the size by set margin: 0 or override the width: 100%.
Here is a the first solution:

Let me know if something is not clear.
My leaflet canvas currently looks like the following, with a 700px height:
However I would like its height it be 100%, in order to take the whole white space.
height:100% doesn't work in the CSS properties of the map canvas.
I found a few solutions but they are only good for Google Maps.
Does anybody has a solution, even if it's only a workaround ?
Thanks !
The best way is to use the CSS length units vh and vw. These allow a block-level HTML element to have a dimension relative to the viewport size, instead of the size of its parent element (as % does).
e.g.:
#map {
width: 100vw;
height: 100vh;
}
For reference: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/length
Using height: 100% does work, it only needs the parent containers to have a size too (working demo):
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
#map {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
Just as an alternative approach: If you have a fixed height nav bar at the top, say 50px, and fixed width on the left, say 100px, then you can make the map take up the rest of the space like this:
#map {
position: absolute;
top: 50px;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 100px;
}
I want to show an image over a menu in the right, but it doesn't work on IE and Microsoft Edge on Windows 10.
<div class="menuDiv">
<ul id="menu">
<div class="menu_image"></div>
<li><a><img src="img/image_1.png"></a>
<ul id="seccion_1"></ul>
</li>
<li><a><img src="img/report_image.png"></a>
<ul id="seccion_2"></ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
menuDiv uses menu of themeRoller of jqueryUI
.menu_image
{
right: 0px;
position: absolute;
content: url(../../../../../lib/img/image_logo.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
/* background-position: 98% 0%;*/
width: auto;
height: auto;
}
This is how it looks on Chrome and Firefox
This is how is looks on IE
How can I show the image on IE?
I set a similar example on jsfiddle
https://jsfiddle.net/kzxfu7j4/
add
.menu{
display: relative;
}
to your css or change your .menu_image as below:
.menu_image
{
content: url(../../../../../lib/img/image_logo.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
/* background-position: 98% 0%;*/
width: auto;
height: auto;
float:right;
}
Edit:
By the way make sure that the div has proper height and width, you can simply change its height and width to match the image height and width.
try this :
.menu_image
{
position: absolute; z-index: 9999;
content: url(../../../../../lib/img/image_logo.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
width: auto;
height: auto;
float:right;
}
If that not work, maybe it's the 'content' that the problem
I found a solution, I just set ":before" on the class menu_image and works
.menu_image:before
{
right: 0px;
position: absolute;
content: url(../../../../../lib/img/image_logo.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
/* background-position: 98% 0%;*/
width: auto;
height: auto;
}
The issue is your content CSS attribute. This is only valid when applied to ::before or ::after psudo-elements:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/CSS/content
You have two options:
1) If the image is important in the context of the content (so you definitely want all users to see it) simply add an <img> in the markup.
Also, since you're positioning the images with absolute positioning, it makes more sense to me to add the actual <img> tag and position them directly as opposed to positioning empty div elements and setting the image as a background.
If the images represent navigational buttons, use this method 1.
2) If the image is not important to the content context, you can add it as a background image the conventional way, using:
background-image:url(...);
https://jsfiddle.net/rwhxpmfm/
Background images have accessibility issues (for example, they're not included when a webpage is printed on paper and screen readers can't access them...but screen readers can access an <img> element's alt attribute) so only use them if it's just for decoration and not part of the content's context.
I've been trying for sometime to replicate an effect seen on this website:
http://www.gregparmasmith.com/
If you play around with the width and height of the window, the images keep proportionate w/h based on their aspect ratio. The images are always loaded with a consistent height, making this slideshow look very nice.
Also notice how wider images (vs thinner images) are resized when just the width of the browser window (not width and height together) is reduced - The images bounce down from the top margin.
He seems to be programming this differently than most responsive jquery image plugins I've seen. There is a parent div container, but it has a static size and seems to not govern the position/sizing of its child images.
Looking at the source, the images top,left,width,height css properties are dynamically being altered.
Any suggestions for how to do this??
The effect seen on that page can be accomplished with just html and css. No javascript needed. He's using percentages as the values for his margins so that as the browser size gets smaller, so does the calculated pixel size of the left and right margins of the div that contains the images. Then by setting the img width to a max-width of a fixed pixel size, say 400px, it will ensure it will only reach a certain width as it does on very large screens.
Then by setting the "width" to a percentage like maybe 100% the image will automatically resize to the size of the containing div because that div is responding the size of the browser.
something like this:
#inside {
max-width: 300px;
margin: 0 auto;
margin-top: 20%;
margin-bottom: 20%;
}
#inside img {
width: 100%
}
http://jsfiddle.net/wRNJ7/1/
I have found a pretty close solution here in this thread:
Vertically center image on page and maintain aspect ratio on resize
Here's a good working demo:
Demo
html, body {height: 100%}
body {
position: relative;
padding: 0;
margin:0;
font-family: sans-serif;
}
.image {
position: relative;
left: 0px;
height: 100%;
background-position: 50% 50%;
background-size: cover;
background-attachment: scroll;
text-align: center;
}
.wrap {
height: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
position: relative;
}
img {
max-width: 70%;
max-height: 70%;
margin: auto;
position: absolute;
top: 0; left: 0; bottom: 0; right: 0;
}
This effect is achieved without any javascript, which at first I thought was undoable. In this demo, the action of the resizing is a little different. In the original website I was trying to model (http://www.gregparmasmith.com/12), it is "clear" that resizing happens only when necessary, so that for a thin image (ex. 500x100): When the browser window is made as thin, no shrinking would occur. Resizing of the image would occur only if the width of the image would exceed the width of the browser.
In this jsfiddle, I think I can notice this same action is happening, but it's not as obvious.
I'm trying to get a responsive image slider. It musts:
Fill the height of a div
Overflow on width
Be centered
It should be similar to http://www.niraalpina.com. I'm looking for a cross-browser compatible CSS solution that doesn't involve fixed dimensions.
I've uploaded the site to http://test5.twinzebras.com/, please have a look and let me know what I'm doing wrong.
Your best bet is to use a setup like this:
HTML
<div class="container">
<div id="img1"></div>
<div id="img2"></div>
</div>
CSS
.container {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
#img1 {
background: url('../img.jpg') no-repeat center center;
background-size: cover; // also give 'contain' a go
}
If cover doesn't do what you want, try contain — I'm not quite sure which you're looking for.
Note: this solution relies on having a fixed-height div around the .container: This is entirely reliant on the rest of your site's setup, so we can't do much to help you there.
You can set width and height to 100% in img
#img1 {
background: url('../img.jpg') no-repeat center center;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
