I am building a component that is supposed to slide up and down depending on some user action. The component must hold an image in the top which is positioned absolute, on a wrapper which is positioned fixed.
Everything is fine and dandy, however during the slide up and down effect, for which I am using jQuery, only the bottom half of the image is shown.
When the animation is over, the image is shown as it's supposed to do.
I have some CSS which looks like:
.wrapper {
background: #fff;
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
height: 100px;
display: none;
}
.picture {
position: absolute;
top: -40px;
border-radius: 100%;
left: 50%;
transform: translateX(-50%);
}
I've made a fiddle here: https://jsfiddle.net/7sg3x6zn/
Any ideas on how to avoid this?
As others mentioned, you need to override the overflow: hidden that is set on the callback of both slideDown() and slideUp().
You can do that without changing your stylesheet, if you alter your code like that:
$(function() {
$('#show').click(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
$('.wrapper').slideDown().css('overflow','visible');
});
$('#hide').click(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
$('.wrapper').slideUp().css('overflow','visible');
});
});
add
overflow: initial !important;
to wrapper class like the example
https://jsfiddle.net/RACCH/ug7szyzv/
this is happening because the jquery function adds overflow:hidden during the animation..
The animation slideDown, and slideUp uses overflow: hidden on the wrapper element doing the animation.
And because of the negative top position of the images is outside the wrapper. So to avoid the image being cut in half delete the line: top: -40px
Hope this make sense :)

I have two fixed elements, one of which can either have
display: block or display: none. The other fixed element is always going to be visible. I want the elements to stick to the top of the website, while having them not overlay each other.
The only proposed solution I found is in these questions:
How to position a fixed div under another fixed div?
Fixed element below fixed element without JS
Put your two divs inside another container div and set that one as
fixed.
I can't do that however, as both of these elements are on different positions in the code, which I am not able to change.
Here's a code snippet demonstrating my problem:
nav,
.secondmenu {
position: fixed;
height: 120px;
opacity: 1;
top: 0;
width: 100%;
background: lightgrey;
}
.secondmenu {
height: 50px;
background: grey;
opacity: 1;
z-index: 2;
}
body {
height: 1000px;
}
<div class="secondmenu">Might be there or not and overlays the other navigation</div>
<div>Some other stuff separating the two from each other with relative position</div>
<nav></nav>
What I want and things to keep in mind:
If both elements are visible, they should be fixed on top of the page, while one is below the other
If only the second element is visible, I want the second one to be fixed at the top of the page
The first element can change its visibility using inline styles (display:none <-> display:block, even without reloading the website)
Javascript/Jquery solutions are fine
this could bo done adding a 'top' with the height of the first nav to the second, like i did here.
Note: This is not the complete solution: If you want to show the second nav only you could do this using js by setting the 'top' back to 0.
nav,
.secondmenu {
position: fixed;
height: 120px;
opacity: 1;
top: 0;
width: 100%;
background: lightgrey;
}
.secondmenu {
height: 50px;
background: grey;
opacity: 1;
z-index: 2;
top: 120px;
}
body {
height: 1000px;
}
<div class="secondmenu">Might be there or not and overlays the other navigation</div>
<div>Some other stuff separating the two from each other with relative position</div>
<nav></nav>
Creating a holder for both of them is the proper approach.
But in your case you can position both of them fixed.
and when the other one is hidden or shown you can handled both elements style(i.e. top and left properties) via Javascript
Try like below
Have you tried Sticky Kit? http://leafo.net/sticky-kit/
Sticky-kit provides an easy way to attach elements to the page when the user scrolls such that the element is always visible.
Here is a fiddle to demonstrate the problem:
http://jsfiddle.net/6e1vg58L/
The javascript adds the "position:fixed" to the nav-content. Everything works how I want, the nav content stays in place while scrolling down the page. Now, if you go and put "position: fixed" under "#nav-content" in the CSS, and delete the JS, it should have the same outcome, correct?
For some reason setting the position in CSS or HTML causes the entire cell to dissapear, while setting it using Javascript or any browser inspector gives it the desired output?
$(document).on("scroll", function(){
if($(window).scrollTop() > 0)
{
$("#nav-content").css("position","fixed");
}
else
{
$("#nav-content").css("position","relative");
$("#nav-content").css("top",0);
}
});
vs
#nav-content {
position: fixed;
}
At first I thought it could be something with the listener causing it to work (but why?), but after opening it up in a live browser and adding the "position: fixed" through the inspector, it works exactly how it should. This is the problem, two out of four ways give the same, desired result, but the other two give the same, undesired result.
Although I am not 100% on the exact whys I think the reason is because by declaring it fixed has the following effect.
fixed
Do not leave space for the element. Instead, position it at a
specified position
so it means content being 100% is allowed to take the whole screen when the page is first rendered. Navigation (although not the one being fixed which is the confusing bit) is on the screen but hidden by the content at 100%. the interesting thing is if you use chrome to disable the fixed property the navigation appears and then because it is now on screen reapplying the position fixed does not hide it which is why the JS route behaves differently.
the changes to fix could defining the initial widths in % relative to each other.
#content {
position: relative;
background-color: #eee;
width: 70%;
max-width: 1300px;
min-width: 450px;
height: auto;
}
and then the same for navigation
#navigation {
width: 30%;
background-color: #000;
height: 100%;
position: relative;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/vemtyyox/
another way to keep the navigation at 300px could be to use calc to define the width of the content
#content {
position: relative;
background-color: #eee;
width: calc(100% - 300px);
max-width: 1300px;
min-width: 450px;
height: auto;
}
#navigation {
width: 300px;
background-color: #000;
height: 100%;
position: relative;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
}

Looking closer i think there is something odd about the way display:table-cell and the fixed properties are working, maybe.
There are tons of questions on SO regarding vertical alignment, but I haven't discovered a clear answer to my problem.
I created a fiddle to show exactly what I'm trying to do.
HTML:
<div id="fade"></div>
<div id="fullscreen">
<img src="http://jira.seraphdevelopment.com/jmajewski/clean/uploads/pictures/n8jvxzd2476480d0.jpg" />
</div>
CSS:
#fade {
/* Cover the entire viewport. */
position: fixed;
top: 0px;
right: 0px;
bottom: 0px;
left: 0px;
/* Transparent Background */
background-color: #000;
opacity: 0.50;
}
#fullscreen {
/* Cover the entire viewport. */
position: fixed;
top: 0px;
right: 0px;
bottom: 0px;
left: 0px;
}
#fullscreen img {
/* Adding the display: block allowed me to center
the image horizontally with the margin: auto. */
display: block;
margin: auto;
/* Limit the size of the image. */
max-width: 80%;
max-height: 80%;
/* This didn't work for me. */
vertical-align: middle;
/* This didn't do anything, either. */
line-height: 100%;
}
I am trying to make a lightbox of sorts, such that the user will click on an image on the page, causing that same image to load up in fullscreen mode. The first div, fade, will be used to cover the entire page with a semi-transparent black background, essentially giving the effect of the page fading away, while also making things modal.
I wanted to be able to nest the image inside the fade div, but I ran into a problem. Setting the opacity on the outer div (to create the fade effect) caused my nested image to inherit the opacity value. Thus, I added a separate div that was identical to the first one, except without the background, and nested the image inside of that.
For the record, I did manage to figure out a workaround to the opacity issue, but I haven't yet implemented it. Credit to Blowski, a SO user who posted this answer to a question regarding opacity:
I do not want to inherit the child opacity from the parent in CSS
The long story short, I have tried quite a few things now in trying to get this image to be centered vertically, but to no avail.
Keep in mind, this solution needs to work with any image!
I am certainly capable of adding a line of code to the $(window).resize() function to center the image manually, but I would like to avoid doing so, if possible. I'm very curious to learn a way around this, as I seem to run into these types of issues more often that I'd like.
Bonus: Why is vertical alignment so difficult for a browser to perform?
Here is one way centering an image in a fixed/absolute positioned div using CSS.
#fullscreen {
/* Cover the entire viewport. */
position: fixed;
top: 0px;
right: 0px;
bottom: 0px;
left: 0px;
}
#fullscreen img {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
margin: auto;
/* Limit the size of the image. */
max-width: 80%;
max-height: 80%;
}
The trick is to use position: absolute for the img and set all the offsets to 0, and then margin: auto will center the image.
The max-width and max-height values will work as expected.
The reason this works is that the image has intrinsic dimensions, so the CSS engine has specific values to do the necessary math to center the images both vertically and horizontally.
See demo at: http://jsfiddle.net/audetwebdesign/KG99S/
Comments
Note that this technique works independently of the overlay.
Also, this works regardless of the aspect ratio of the image.
Reference
This technique follows from the CSS2 specification regarding how the horizontal and vertical margins are determined for absolutely positioned inline, replaced elements.
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/visudet.html#abs-replaced-width
and
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/visudet.html#abs-replaced-height
Im using a float: right on my website. I want to make that div 100% of the window height minus a 10px margin. I want the height to resize with the page.
I also want the image in it to sit at the bottom of the 'container' minus 10px padding.
I've tried adjusting everything, and am sure its something in the code conflicting but i just can't work it out.
Thanks for any suggestions in advance.
I suggest you use absolute positioning instead of floating for this, you can make elements expand by setting for example top and bottom at the same time.
Absolute positioning could work for the image as well if you set its bottom to 10px (its offset parent will already be the right container, because any position other than the default static makes the element an offset parent).
Quick example:
/* this makes your body take up the whole screen */
html, body { height: 100%; }
/* the positioning magic */
#right { width: 100px; position: absolute;top: 10px; bottom: 10px; right: 20px; }
jsFiddle Demo
​UPDATE: and an updated jsFiddle to show an example on putting another element in the container and positioning it to the bottom.
#image { position: absolute; bottom: 10px; left: 20px; }
I have div that I display dynamically when certain conditions arise.
When I display the div, how can I create the effect of the background dimming and my div appearing to be prominent? much like a number of AJAX lightboxes or popups. (Thickbox, ColorBox, PrettyPhoto, etc)
I don;t quite get how they do it. I have everything else working in my own custom code except that piece.
Can anyone help me learn how?
Place a div over the content and set an opacity. I use this in one of my sites.
<div id="error_wrapper">
<div id="site_error">
Error:
</div>
</div>
div#error_wrapper {
z-index: 100;
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: #000000;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
opacity: 0.7;
filter: alpha(opacity=70);
}
div#site_error {
position: fixed;
top: 200px;
width: 400px;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -200px;
}
If you create a layer that is the full width & height of your page and give it a higher z index than your whole page, you can create this effect. Then put your appearing div over it.
Just use global div of the size of the page to cover any other content:

Here is an example that you can play around with.

Hope this helps.
