I'm a beginner in css and i'm trying to create a hero banner with css only and make it responsive, i'm quite confused with positioning of the texts on top of the image, if i zoom the page or resize it down the texts don't respond.
<header class="main-header">
<img src="imgs/header.jpg"/>
<div class="title">
<h1>This is a title</h1>
<p>some texts here</p>
</div>
</header>
css:
.main-header img {
max-width: 100%;
margin: 0 auto;
position: relative;
}
.title {
position: relative;
top: -450px;
left: 10%;
text-align: center;
display: inline-block;
color: white;
margin: 0 auto;
width: 80%;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
.title h1 {
font-size: 2.7rem;
font-weight: 700;
margin: 0 auto;
width: 80%;
margin-bottom: 1.5%;
}
.title p {
font-size: .60rem;
width: 33%;
margin: 0 auto;
line-height: 1.8;
}
Is it even possible to create a hero banner with css only? cuz i can't see any tutorial for that..
Example: Responsive Hero Banner with Image and Text
Here's a very minimal example of a full width, responsive hero banner with image and text, using only css.
The HTML:
<div class="hero-wrapper">
<header class="hero">
<div class="hero-sizing"></div>
<div class="hero-content">
<h1>Hero Title</h1>
<p>Hero paragraph text.</p>
</div>
</header>
</div>
The only unusual element there is the "hero-sizing" div. It's there to ensure the banners image maintains its aspect ratio at different window size (more on "hero-sizing" later).
On to the css. First is the outermost hero-wrapper class:
.hero-wrapper {
clear: both;
position: relative;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
font: 18px helvetica, sans-serif;
color: white;
}
Nothing too confusing here, mostly just setting up some formatting. Note that width: 100% makes the banner extend the full width of the window.
Next is the hero class, which specifies the banner image and how it is displayed:
.hero {
background-image: url(http://lorempixel.com/image_output/people-q-c-1200-400-6.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-attachment: scroll;
background-position: center;
background-size: 100% auto;
}
This hero class specifies the image, centers it, and sets it to the full width of its container.
Next comes the hero-sizing class that's responsible for maintaining the banner's aspect ratio when it's resized:
.hero-sizing {
padding-top: 33%;
}
To maintain the image's aspect ratio, padding-top must match the image's height:width ratio. Since the image in this example is 1200 wide by 400 high, we've set padding-top to 33%. hero-sizing serves an important function -- it stretches and shrinks the height of div containing the background image, so the div's aspect ratio and the image's aspect ratio always match.
With just the above css, we now have a full-width, responsive banner image that maintains its aspect ratio, but we still would like to be able to add some text to the banner and have it look decent. That's what the hero-content class and 'hero-content:before pseudo-class are for:
.hero-content {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
}
.hero-content:before {
content: ' ';
display: block;
height: 40%;
}
Our content ought to be placed at roughly the same spot over the image, regardless of the image's size. To accomplish this, we're employing a little trick with :before pseudo-class to push our content down the page by 40% of the banner's current height. This positioning 'trick' means our content's position is responsive, as it will stay at the same place over the image.
The final css just sets some formatting preferences:
.hero-content h1,
.hero-content p {
margin-top: 0px;
margin-bottom: 6px;
}
And we're done.
Granted, this is just a bare minimum example which could be improved for small screens with #media queries (like reducing the font size), but this example shows how to implement two very useful capabilities:
full width, responsive hero banner images that maintain aspect ratio
consistent content positioning over the image
.hero-wrapper {
clear: both;
position: relative;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
font: 18px helvetica, sans-serif;
color: white;
}
.hero {
background-image: url(https://picsum.photos/id/1062/1200/400);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-attachment: scroll;
background-position: center;
background-size: 100% auto;
}
.hero-sizing {
padding-top: 33%;
}
.hero-content {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
}
.hero-content:before {
content: ' ';
display: block;
height: 40%;
}
.hero-content h1,
.hero-content p {
margin-top: 0px;
margin-bottom: 6px;
}
body {
margin: 0;
background-color: #d0d0d0;
}
<div class="hero-wrapper">
<header class="hero">
<div class="hero-sizing"></div>
<div class="hero-content">
<h1>Hero Title</h1>
<p>Hero paragraph text.</p>
</div>
</header>
</div>

TL;DR: How to keep the div children proportional to the div itself?
I have a div, containing various elements like text, images, icons etc. It keeps 16:9 aspect ratio and fills as much viewport it can, while resizing the browser window, the div (with background different from the body background) changes size well, though the contents are staying the same size which is bad because I'm trying to make a presentation website which needs to look the same at various resolutions. How do I make the child elements align and resize properly inside the div?
I tried using viewport units though it didn't turn out really well.
My Code:
I tried using % units to set font size and then use em to scale other things but it didn't work. I also tried using only % units to set all properties but it did not work either
body {
background: black;
user-select: none;
margin: 0;
height: 100vh;
}
.container2 {
overflow: auto;
box-sizing: border-box;
resize: both;
overflow: auto;
max-width: 100%;
height: 100%;
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
}
.presentation-place {
user-select: none;
background: white;
top: 50%;
transform: translate(0, -50%);
position: absolute;
align-items: center;
aspect-ratio: 16 / 9;
}
#media screen and (max-aspect-ratio: 16 / 9) {
.presentation-place {
width: 100vw;
}
}
#media screen and (min-aspect-ratio: 16 / 9) {
.presentation-place {
height: 100vh;
}
}
.slide {
font-size: 100%;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
margin: 0 auto;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
background: red;
background-position: center center;
}
.title1 {
margin-left: 1em;
font-size: 6em;
position: absolute;
margin-top: 2em;
}
<html>
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="presentation-place">
<div class="slide s1">
<h1 class="title1">test</h1>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Make sure to avoid specific units like cm, px etc because those are fixed units no matter the scale of the site itself or the monitor, the use of Units like % since vh/vw didnt work. % scales relative to the size of the monitor or website, so this should help. Alternativly you could use aspect-ratio because it scales relative to the size of the parent element
So i have a div with a background image and i would like to make the div same size as the background image when i resize the window, so i can place some text in the center of it and i want to image to be responsive and so the div also.
my html for the image and text:
<div id="headerimg" class="header">
<h1>Welcome to my website</h1>
</div>
and my cc for it so far:
#headerimg{
background: url(http://images.huffingtonpost.com/2016-06-25-1466835058-3172856-DKCWebDesignBanner.jpg) no-repeat top center fixed;
background-size: cover;
width:100%;
}
.header{
height: 700px;
width: 100%;
margin: auto;
padding: 20%;
color: white;
text-align: center;
font-size: 50px;
}
i am just using a random image from google atm, ill replace later; but anyway.. how can i get the height to align whenever? Jquery maybe? -but im not realy familiar with jquery much...and yes, i want the div to be full width of the site all the time.
Would something like the following work for you:
https://jsfiddle.net/44k0320v/
I've updated your header width to use 50vw units, your example image has an aspect ratio of arount 2:1 meaning that if you want the div to maintain the correct height you need to set the height to be half of the viewport width (the measurement across the width of the screen is 100vw).
I have also updated the background image to have a size of 100% rather than cover so it's width will scale with the div.
I've also updated the font size to also use vw units.
New css below:
#headerimg{
background: url(http://images.huffingtonpost.com/2016-06-25-1466835058-3172856-DKCWebDesignBanner.jpg) no-repeat top center fixed;
background-size: 100%;
}
.header{
box-sizing: border-box;
height: 50vw;
width: 100%;
margin: auto;
padding: 10% 20%;
color: white;
text-align: center;
font-size: 3.5vw;
}
A similar solution to jazibobs, also using the vw height but with more "flowy" text. Currently the background will respond to pretty much any width however at narrow widths it doesn't really make much sense with the text. For this you could use media queries to possibly even hide the background at smaller widths or just set the text smaller.

#headerimg{
background: url(http://images.huffingtonpost.com/2016-06-25-1466835058-3172856-DKCWebDesignBanner.jpg) no-repeat top center fixed;
background-size: 100% auto;
width: 100%;
height: 100vh;
}
.header{
margin: 0px;
padding: 0;
color: white;
text-align: center;
font-size: 50px;
display: table;
}
h1 {
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
}
I'm making a responsive website and I want a image next to a div.
While placing the image next to the div is no problem, it gets tricky when I make my screen smaller.
I gave the image a width of 100% and a height of auto (responsive image) and this is the result:
This example is how it needs to be permanent, even when I scale it down.
Right now when I scale it down, this happens:
Because the image is responsive, it shrinks and the div stays in place.
Is there any way to make the div scale with the picture?
My CSS (Made in SASS):
.block-middle{
background-color: $oranje;
color: #fff;
padding-top: 85px;
padding-left: 55px;
padding-right: 55px;
line-height: 30px;
font-size: 18px;
font-weight: 300;
padding-bottom: 87px;
.button-wit-bruin{
margin-top: 30px;
display: inline-block;
}
h1{
font-family: 'Montserrat', sans-serif;
font-size: 30px;
font-weight: 700;
padding-bottom: 30px;
}
}
.block-right{
img.liggend{
width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
}
And the HTML is simply:
<div class="col-md-4 no-p block-middle">
<div id="img1_div"></div>
<img id="img1" alt="" />
<script>
$(document).ready( function(){
$(window).on("load", function(){
$(window).on("resize", function(){
var imgHeight = $("#img1").height();
$("#img1_div").height( imgHeight );
}).resize();
});//window load
});//document ready
</script>
This code will work in most cases ( except there's no overriding behaviour ), no matter where your image and div are placed. I would like to mention though that resize and scroll events should not be handled crudely this way, but should be optimised using a global timeout variable.
the trick is to set the height of the div relative to the width...which ironically, you can't do with the height property, since height:auto; makes it the height of it's children.
padding however is relative to the width of the parent...so it's a little bit funky, but if you play with the padding-bottom as a % and make the height:0px; you can achieve the desired effect without using Javascript. Here's the relevant CSS:
.responsive-background {
float:left;
width:60%;
height:0px;
padding-bottom:30%; /* adjust this depending on the height/width of the image you are aligning to */
}
And a Codepen with more detail and some additional styling:
http://codepen.io/ryantdecker/pen/LZYYaj
I think this will do the trick for you.
One way I can think of is, use the image as background for div and use background-size as cover:
.right-block {
background: url('https://placeimg.com/640/480/any');
background-size: cover;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 50% 50%;
}
Ahhh sorry I misunderstood your question. This can be done with a bit of flexbox if your target browsers support it. Is this the result you're looking for?
.container {
display: flex;
}
.left-block {
background: red;
width: 50%;
}
.right-block {
width: 50%;
}
.image {
display: block; // Removes spacing around image cause by default display: inline;
width: 100%;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="left-block">
</div>
<div class="right-block">
<img class="image" src="https://placeimg.com/640/480/any">
</div>
</div>
Previous Answer:
It seems as though there's a height set on your .block-right element. The code you provided is rather incomplete as you're missing the markup for your .block-right element. But is this what you're looking for?
.left-block,
.right-block {
float: left;
width: 50%;
}
.left-block {
background: red;
height: 200px;
}
.right-block {
background: grey;
}
.image {
width: 100%;
}
<div class="left-block">
</div>
<div class="right-block">
<img class="image" src="https://placeimg.com/640/480/any">
</div>
I'm currently designing a website and there's a problem regarding the website footer.
When viewed on Desktop, the footer looks like this:

Now the problem is, when (for example) the window's width is decreased, the footer elements seem to scatter, the .creation element goes out of the footer and goes below.
What I want to do (when website is viewed in small window width, or on Mobile Devices screens) is to 'center' and 'stack' the footer elements (.footer-message, .back-to-top, and .creation) in the following order: top: .back-to-top, middle: .footer-message, and bottom: .creation, with the Footer Background Color still #ffffff. A small photo edit can represent what I mean:

I hope someone can help me. Thank you so much.
Introducing media queries
In order to achieve what you're looking for, you can use media queries in CSS.
For example, if you want to stack the footer elements at a screen width of 480px or less, the following media query will allow you to style for that scenario only:
#media (max-width: 480px) {
// Styles here
}
Given that, let's get on to the point of stacking. You have different position attributes currently on the elements you're trying to stack. The easiest way to stack elements on top of one another is to use the properties display: block; and float: left;. This way, the elements will span the width of their container and appear in the order they are in inside the document's HTML.
Let's take a look at how you might go about that:
#media (max-width: 480px) {
.footer-message {
float: left;
display: block;
}
// center the links inside footer-message
.footer-message a {
text-align: center;
width: 100%;
}
.creation {
margin: 0 auto; // center it
display: block;
}
.back-to-top {
position: relative; // absolute positioning removes the element from document flow so we want to go relative
display: block;
margin: 0 auto; // center it
}
}
Note I simply removed the other properties since they're applied at all screen sizes already. You may want to alter those inside this media query in case the new styles affect their layout or you'd like it to differ for mobile.
Hope that helps!
UPDATE: I just noticed the part about you wanting to center the elements, I've added some code above to do so.
I use Bootstrap 3.3.4 and I want to know which way is better to align texts or items in carousel.
here is a exemple from a slider. How can I align text like this and stay at any screen resolution at the same place. I use top: x, right: x but every time when I resize the window, text climb above and not stay at middle anymore.
CSS for align
.carousel-caption {
position: absolute;
right: 15%;
bottom: 40%;
left: 15%;
z-index: 10;
padding-top: 20px;
padding-bottom: 20px;
color: #fff;
text-align: center;
text-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, .6);
}
Just basic bootstrap slider. But If I use bottom 40% for exemple to rise text at middle of the page works. But if I use smaller displays the text rise and stay almost on top.
In this exemple text stay fixed on every device.
<div class="wrap">
<div class="display-table">
<div class="display-cell">
<h1>Title in here</h1>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<style>
.wrap {
width: 100%;
height: 400px;
}
.display-table {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
display: table;
}
.display-cell {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
}
</style>
This allows fixed vertical alignment and should work cross browser. Just note the fixed height applied to .wrap must be present for the children to inherit 100% height!
Hope this helps :)
Hope, Try this demo that centers text vertically in the Bootstrap carousel.
Here is the Fiddle.
All I do here is give the div a height that contains the text and then position it with this css...
.vcenter {
position: absolute;
height:100px;
width:100%;
top:50%;
bottom:50%;
margin-top: -50px;
margin-bottom: -50px;
}
